Neighborhood Planning Assemblies (NPAs) are grassroots, neighborhood organizations that were established in each of Burlington's seven Wards to empower citizen participation in City government. Working as neighborhood advocacy groups, Neighborhood Planning Assemblies facilitate communication between the citizens of Burlington and city government through regular meetings scheduled in each Ward. Wards 1 & 8 meet the second Wednesday of the month.

Meeting place: McClure Lobby Conference Room, FAHC/UVM Medical Center

The Essex Junction Trustees is the governing, legislative body for the Municipality of the Village of Essex Junction. The five member board is elected at large within the Village. The board includes the position of Village President. The position of president and vice president are decided (appointed) through a vote of the board itself.  This was a function of a charter update at the 2010 annual meeting. The three year terms of the Trustees are staggered to provide continuity. The Trustees usually meet twice per month on Tuesday evenings in the meeting room at the Village municipal office building at Five Corners. The public is invited to attend all meetings, and may address the board or ask questions during a special “public to be heard” section at the beginning of each meeting.

The Colchester Selectboard meets at 7:30 pm on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month at the Colchester Meeting House (formerly the white church) on Main Street in the village. However, sometimes special meetings, locations and times are arranged. Check Selectboard agendas which are posted around town at various locations and always at the Library and the Post Office, as well as in the lobby of the Town Offices and on the town website. If in doubt contact the Town Manager's Office at (802) 264-5500.

This is a forum to hear from the community on matters of equity, diversity and inclusion.

There is lots of talk from elected officials about the necessity for Vermont to grow its economy. It can only do so with a dramatic change of the racial demographics of the State. We all know that this will not be sustainable until we address factors contributing to the systemic nature of racism in the State. The population and race demographics of Burlington scream the fact that “as goes Burlington, so goes Vermont." This is a community conversation about that.

Who are we, as a City? Who do we hope to become? How will we get there?

This strategic session gives an opportunity to wrestle with some of these questions and discuss solutions.

Mayor Weinberger, Chief Del Pozo and Superintendent Obeng were invited to listen.
