CCRPC reviews draft FY2026 UPWP and budget; public hearing set for May 21
Summary
At its April 16 meeting the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission board of directors reviewed the draft fiscal year 2026 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) and draft budget. Staff outlined major revenue sources, pending grants, planned programs, and a May 21 public hearing to finalize the documents.
The Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission board of directors on April 16 reviewed a draft Unified Planning Work Program for fiscal year 2026 and a companion draft budget and set a public hearing for 5:30 p.m. on May 21 to solicit public comment before formal adoption.
Charlie (RPC staff) told the board the UPWP packet includes two documents: a detailed, small‑print work program that lists tasks, deliverables and staff‑time translated to dollars, and a two‑page budget summary. He described a color code in the packet showing ongoing tasks, pending projects and transportation‑funded tasks, and explained how consultant matches are shown when municipal dues provide regional match.
Why this matters: the UPWP and budget house the RPC’s work plan and the funding that supports regional planning, transportation planning and related technical assistance. About two‑thirds of the RPC’s operating budget comes from federal MPO funding; the draft shows how those formula funds and other grants would be used in the coming year.
