Summary
Committee members told staff to include brief language in their appropriations letter supporting the governor’s one-time funding for the central garage relocation and to keep that language concise and technical.
BURLINGTON, Vt. — Members of the House Committee on Transportation indicated they support the governor’s proposal to provide one-time funding for relocation of the central garage and asked that the draft appropriations letter note that support concisely.
Legislative counsel Damien Leonard told the committee the draft will include a short line noting committee backing for the central garage relocation proposed in the governor’s budget. "A one-time funding for the relocation of the central garage, which is proposed in the budget," he said, recommending succinct language rather than extended narrative.
Why it matters: Committee members said the relocation is a technical, one-time item they want Appropriations to note and not have obscured by the letter’s broader discussion of structural revenue challenges. Leonard said he would include the language and that staff would add technical details when circulating the revised draft.
Next steps: Leonard will add concise support language for the central garage relocation to the letter and circulate an updated draft for member review.
