2025-2026 Municipal Policy

The DRAFT 2025-2026 VLCT Municipal Legislative Policy was approved by the VLCT Board to bring before the membership at VLCT's 2024 Annual Meeting. The policy is developed through recommendations from five legislative policy committees. Read more about the policy development process. 

Suggested policy amendments are made either in writing prior to the VLCT Annual Meeting or on the floor at the meeting, where they are debated and adopted. If you want the VLCT Board to consider endorsing your amendment, please email the completed Policy Amendment Proposal form to Josh Hanford, Director of Intergovernmental Relations, at jhanford@vlct.org by Wednesday, September 25, 2024.


The text of the DRAFT 2025-2026 policy is as follows:

Municipal Guiding Principles

Vermont League of Cities and Towns (VLCT) supports:

  1. a robust and transparent partnership between state and local government;
  2. granting municipalities authority to legislate solutions to matters solely affecting the municipality;
  3. inter-municipal collaboration to develop regional governance structures that provide the technical, administrative and financial scale necessary to tackle multi-jurisdictional issues without dismantling local control;
  4. creating sustainable funding for municipalities beyond the property tax to ensure every municipality can meet its obligations, including sharing revenue collected or raised at the municipal level; 
  5. building racially just, equitable, diverse, and inclusive communities of belonging and taking meaningful action to effect systemic changes that heal racial divisions;
  6. local discretion to pursue sustainable housing, economic development, recovery, and resiliency, including substantial deference to municipal planning, zoning, and siting decisions;
  7. flexibility in implementing state regulatory and statutory requirements; 
  8. including local officials in determining changes in local response to emergency situations;
  9. state collection of fees and taxes assessed to implement statewide goals;
  10. resources to provide sustainable public safety, fire protection, and emergency medical services; and
  11. direct aid to municipalities to mitigate the effects of economic distress.    

Each new obligation imposed on municipalities without sufficient funding to cover its costs results in increased municipal property taxes or fees. VLCT opposes all unfunded mandates, pre-emption of municipal action, regulatory overreach by state agencies not supported in statute, and cost shifts to local government. We urge the completion of fiscal impact statements that itemize potential shifts in costs to local governments prior to action being taken by the legislature or administration.
 

1.0 Finance, Administration and Intergovernmental Relations (FAIR)


1.1    PRIORITIES
