To the Editor,
2019 marks the seventh year that Southeastern Vermont Economic Development Strategies has asked voters in Windham regional towns to invest in regional efforts. On Town Meeting day requests in Brattleboro, Rockingham, Westminster, Putney, Wilmington, Dummerston, Londonderry, Newfane, Dover, Marlboro, Weston, Stratton, and Winhall were funded by voters, raising $83,570 for regional planning and economic initiatives. Nearly 75% of Windham region’s residents fund SeVEDS through municipal funding requests - a critical metric for this grassroots organization.
