In 2016, The Vermont Futures Project set
a target for 5,000 new and retrofitted housing
units per year to meet the critical need for
homes across Vermont. This was a need five
years ago, and as we strive to recover from
the pandemic-caused economic downturn, the
health of Vermont’s housing market is under
more stress than ever.
Governor Scott recognizes this need and
recently proposed using substantial federal
funding to create 1,135 “missing middle”
housing units, renovate 681 vacant affordable
rental units, build 2,434 mixed income units,
add 600 affordable multi-family housing
units, weatherize an additional 900 units, and
improve drinking and wastewater systems.
“The Governor’s proposal underscores the
need for more housing in Vermont, with an
emphasis on the missing middle. The Vermont
Futures Project supports this once-ina-lifetime
opportunity to address this intractable,
long-term problem, and believes this
will help retain and attract more Vermonters
to our workforce and communities,” said Lori
Smith, Executive Director of The Vermont
Futures Project.
The moment is now to create a long-term,
comprehensive plan to address our housing
crisis. Attractive, affordable, and efficient
homes will revitalize Vermont communities,
provide stable housing, and enable us to attract
and retain the people and businesses we
need for a thriving economy. The Vermont
Futures Project worked for several months to
collate immediate actions that would improve
the health of our housing. You can read the
full paper with detailed housing challenges
and solutions here: https://docs.vtfuturesproject.org/vermont-housing-solutions.pdf.
