COUNCIL WORK SESSIONS, PAID PRO-DEVELOPMENT LOBBYISTS, YOUR CITY, YOUR ZONING!

Please come to the city council meetings on:


Monday, the 22nd
Wednesday, the 24th


5 P.M. at Contois, City Hall.


There will be a public forum either before or after the council discussions.
Bring signs, bring puppets, bring your ethical selves. Be prepared to speak or just witness.

The Burlington Business Association has hired a PR firm to lobby in favor of this and other developments. They showed up en masse to the last meeting, in t-shirts saying I AM FOR PROGRESS. We are for progress too, but progress that is in keeping with our current comprehensive plan, Plan BTV. For progress that comes from what the people of Burlington want, not progress that is forced upon us against the will of the people.

See:

We ask you, if you care about democracy, due process, and the livability of Burlington, 
PLEASE JOIN US AT THESE MEETINGS. WE NEED YOU.

Our Community, Our Zoning.
