Apply for this year’s Regional Project Priority List
Each year, the Regional Project Priority List for Central Vermont is developed by Central Vermont Economic Development Corporation (CVEDC) and the Central Vermont Regional Planning Commission. It is then presented to the Agency of Commerce and Community Development. Each of the 12 RDCs of Vermont develop a list for their region, each year. The 120 projects compiled in this work are community-driven, transformative projects that could bring great change to our regions. We look for projects that invite new workers, grow jobs, support housing, upskill workers, promote equity, respect diversity, and expand opportunities for all Vermonters.
The 2025 Regional Project Priority Application can be completed here.
Municipal projects are encouraged! Please feel free to contact CVRPC Community Development Planner Eli Toohey should you have questions – toohey@cvregion.com
