The Montpelier Commission

for Recovery & Resilience

Defining a Path Forward Regarding the Federal Building at 87 State Street

The decision of the federal government to transition ownership of the federal building at 87 State Street has enormous implications for Montpelier’s downtown and future. The Montpelier Commission for Recovery and Resilience is spearheading a collaborative effort with the City and State of Vermont to explore the future for the Federal Building and parcel at 87 State Street.

Imagine a connected Montpelier where we look after one another, where every household can be reached quickly, and where neighbors prepare for and respond to emergencies together.

With your participation, Montpelier Neighbor Net is becoming a new collective of small neighborhood-based groups working to:

  • build community

  • improve communications

  • grow emergency preparedness & response

Winooski Flood Resilience Collaborative

The Commission was proud to help plan and host a second gathering of nearly 70 representatives from 24 towns from the Winooski Watershed on May 14th. Participants gathered to build connections, learn about river mapping and modeling, and to begin finding ways to work together to improve flood resilience throughout the watershed.
