West Windsor Homes Study - Community Input Forum Follow-Up
West Windsor Homes Study - Community Input Forum Follow-Up
The Planning Commission would like to thank everyone who attended the Affordable Homes Study Community Forum on February 1st. We had a great discussion and appreciate the input of so many community members. If you missed the Forum, you can find a copy of the presentation here. You may also access FAQs and responses here. The Forum was recorded by Windsor on Air TV, and the recording is available here.
Our next step is to identify good locations for affordable homes in the village, on the mountain, and in the secondary growth zone. If you have some land that you believe might make a good site, have an existing home that could be renovated into affordable homes, or if you would like to contribute to the project in some way, please contact Matt Frederick, the West Windsor Town Administrator, at townadmin@westwindsorvt.org.
The next Community Forum will be held in June. Progress on the Homes Study will be discussed at every monthly Planning Commission meeting until then. The next PC meeting is Tuesday, February 25th at 6:30pm, in person and via Zoom. Please feel free to join us!

Affordable Housing Study - Community Input Forum
Affordable Housing Study - Community Input Forum
The Planning Commission invites all West Windsor residents to attend a Community Input Forum on Saturday, February 1st at 10:00am at the Town Hall. The Planning Commission is seeking to understand and address affordable housing in West Windsor with the goal of increasing the housing supply for local workers, seniors and families. “Affordable” means that the cost of housing (rent, or mortgage plus utilities, property taxes and insurance) does not exceed 30% of household income. The Planning Commission wants to develop a roadmap for ensuring that people who work in our community can stay in our community.
Your participation and support are key to our success. At the Forum, we will share data on where we currently stand as a community, project tasks and timeframes, and ideas about potential housing solutions. At this stage we do not know all of the answers about adding affordable homes. We invite your questions, thoughts and ideas. And you can speak directly with our consultants who have extensive experience in home design, civil engineering and project finance.
If you have any questions or thoughts before the Forum, please feel free to contact our Town Administrator, Matt Frederick, at 802-484-3520 or townadmin@westwindsorvt.org.

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, February 1st!
Mount Ascutney Safety Action PlanMount Ascutney Safety Action Plan
Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A)
Last year our Regional Planning Commission, the Mount Ascutney Regional Commission (MARC), was awarded a Federal grant from US DOT to develop a comprehensive safety action plan with a goal and strategies to get to zero deaths on all MARC roadways for all road users. As part of this effort, MARC collected data on serious and fatal injuries on roadways in our region which you can see here: Mount Ascutney Safety Action Plan.
Now MARC wants to hear from you! When and where do you feel unsafe on MARC roadways?
Please fill out the following Survey: MARC SS4A Input Tool
Please reach out to Logan Nicoll of MARC with any questions!
