Good morning, Burlington.

Young Writers Project published the weekly entry 'Trees talk' by Isla Segal, 14, from Woodstock—an imaginative poem that shows how nature seems to speak, paired with the artwork 'Light Tree' by Chloe Deliso.

The Burlington-founded project continues to offer young Vermonters a platform for their creative work.

The Art at the Kent exhibit 'Holding: Mementos Kept, Memories Kindled' opened Sept.

12 at Kents Corner in Calais and is on view every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday until Oct. 12 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The exhibit features 39 portraits and various installations that explore memory and shared humanity—highlighting works by Vermont artists.

The Vermont Repertory Theatre has secured a new headquarters on Commerce Street in Williston to serve as its rehearsal space and performance venue for the third season.

The venue—seating 75—will debut with The Williston One Acts from Oct. 15-18 while auditions are scheduled by appointment Sept. 25-27.

1% for the Planet has grown from its Burlington headquarters on Lake Champlain — the organization verifies that businesses donate at least 1% of revenue to fund projects like parks, trails and waterway protection.

Local companies such as Vermont Green Football Club back these efforts, showing how local support fuels global environmental solutions.

South Burlington posted its fiscal 2024 salary list that shows how much city workers earned—ranging from $175,782.14 for the city manager to lower amounts for other roles.

The data gives names, job titles and pay figures to help residents understand city compensation.

The Vermont Agency of Transportation announced a week-long plan for road construction that will affect highways and cause delays starting today.

Motorists should plan for lane closures and one-way traffic—projects span routes from Colchester to Worcester.

In 1850, Vermont lawmakers passed a Habeas Corpus Law that made the Fugitive Slave Law nearly impossible to enforce by requiring local officials to bring detained fugitives before a judge—Vermont citizens and newspapers held meetings to protest a law that forced them to support slavery. Gov. Charles Kilborn Williams and state leaders argued that the federal law violated constitutional rights and duty to due process.

Eight Vermont towns have started using situation tables—meetings where police and social services work together to help people with addiction, homelessness and crime.

Burlington began using the model in July and has handled 16 cases as officials work to connect unsheltered residents to needed support.
