Vermont awards $28 million for affordable housing
The Vermont Housing Finance Agency Board of Commissioners has awarded tax credits that will generate $28 million for developing 241 apartments, according to a community announcement.
The homes will serve low-income renters in seven communities across the state, according to the announcement.
Awards of federal Low Income Housing Tax Credits and state rental tax credits come as development costs and the demand for more affordable housing rise, according to the announcement. Since 2020, the cost to develop an affordable apartment and the number of Vermonters experiencing homelessness have both doubled, according to the announcement.
Competition for tax credits among developers is strong and the criteria for awards is rigorous, according to the announcement.
Three projects will receive $26 million for development costs.
- Highgate Village Housing in Highgate will create 30 apartments. Construction will begin in June 2027 with move-in starting in August 2028. The developer is Cathedral Square Corporation.
- Champlain Housing Trust and Evernorth are developing the Park Street Apartments in Winooski, which will have 24 units. The site is considered a brownfield and will be cleaned to state standards prior to construction. Occupancy is estimated for 2028.
- Twin Pines Housing Trust and Evernorth are developing the Sykes Mountain Apartments in White River Junction, which will have 48 units. Move-in is expected in December 2027.
Four additional development projects will receive an estimated $1.9 million from a state rental tax credit program for development costs.
- Cornerstone Housing Partners and Evernorth are working on the Arlington Village Center, which will have 30 apartments. The project involves the preservation and rehabilitation of 29 existing apartments and the construction of one new apartment across 11 buildings.
- RuralEdge and Evernorth are rehabilitating the Caledonia Renaissance Apartments in St. Johnsbury, which will have 18 units. The project will preserve 18 affordable apartments across five buildings.
- Cathedral Square Corporation and Evernorth are working on the Round Barn project in Grand Isle, which will have 24 units. The project involves the rehabilitation and construction of 24 apartments for aging people in two buildings.
- Jonathan Rose, Ride Your Bike and Champlain Housing Trust are developing the Ride Your Bike Building in Burlington, which will have 67 units. The project is part of a larger 240-plus housing development and is the first phase of a master plan for a currently underutilized parking lot.

Two people were injured when an SUV drove into a swimming pool at the popular Smugglers’ Notch Resort in Cambridge, Vermont, on Monday afternoon.
Vermont State Police said the incident occurred around 3:30 p.m. Monday when the vehicle drove through a fence and landed in the pool, where it became stuck.
“I just heard a bang and a car went there,” 9-year-old Joseph Sage told WPTZ. “It hit my head and it pulled me under.”
He said his dad pulled him and another girl out of the pool.
State police confirmed two people suffered minor injuries and were treated by members of the Cambridge Rescue Squad.
The SUV was pulled out of the water several hours later and towed away.
Photos shared by Notch Road Auto Repair, Towing and Recovery showed the vehicle partially submerged in the pool and also being towed out afterward.
A state police trooper was seen placing a person in handcuffs and putting them in the back of a cruiser. Witnesses told WPTZ hat the person taken into custody was the driver of the SUV, but state police did not release any details on charges being filed in connection with the crash.
Resort officials said nothing like this ever happened before. They said the speed limit on the property is 14 miles an hour, and encouraged people to be extra cautious and attentive while driving there. The pool remains closed until furher notice, the resort said.
