Lyndon commissioners review downtown Step 3 designation, CIP timeline and implications for sales-tax routing
Summary
Commissioners discussed work with the LDRC and consultant Heather Carrington on a Capital Improvement Plan due Feb. 2026 and Step 3 downtown designation options; the Select Board will consider Tier 1A vs. 1B on Oct. 20.
Commissioners reported ongoing coordination with the Lyndon Downtown Revitalization Committee (LDRC) and the town’s MPG consultant, Heather Carrington, on downtown revitalization plans. Staff and the consultant are working on a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) the town aims to complete by February 2026, a prerequisite for the Center Step 3 designation.
The commission discussed the benefits and administrative implications of Step 3 designation, noting that Step 3 "would allow sales tax revenues from construction projects to be funneled back to the project." Members flagged a forthcoming Select Board discussion (Oct. 20) about whether the town should pursue Tier 1A or 1B status, which would change certain Act 250 review responsibilities.
