Description
From Gov Phil Scott Facebook:
Governor Phil Scott and Housing and Community Development Commissioner Josh Hanford today joined community partners to discuss the impact of the Vermont Housing Improvement Program (VHIP).
VHIP is an important tool in the State’s toolbox for increasing the usable housing stock, in addition to new construction. The program helps bring vacant rental units back to the market. In the 2022 legislative session, $20 million was appropriated for the program.
The press conference took place at NeighborWorks of Western VT, who help administer the program in the region. In addition to Governor Scott and Commissioner Hanford, Heather Starzynski, executive director of NeighborWorks of Western VT, and Angus Cheney, executive director of the Homeless Prevention Center of Rutland County, offered remarks on the program’s impact.
