Have you heard about the Transportation and Climate Initiative? There will be an opportunity in St. Johnsbury to learn about it and give feedback-- sorry about the short notice!-- on Wednesday, January 29th. Here's a link to some info about the Initiative: https://anr.vermont.gov/content/transportation-and-climate-initiative
And here is some stuff copied from that helpful page, about the public feedback sessions:
On December 17, 2019, a bipartisan group of Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states that make up the Transportation and Climate Initiative (TCI) invited the public to provide feedback on a new draft proposal for a regional program that would establish a cap on global warming pollution from transportation fuels and invest millions annually to achieve additional benefits through reduced emissions, cleaner transportation, healthier communities, and more resilient infrastructure.
The draft "Memorandum of Understanding" (Draft MOU) builds on a program framework made public on October 1, 2019. A final MOU is expected in the Spring of 2020, following additional public input and analysis. At that time each of the 12 TCI states and the District of Columbia will decide whether to sign the final MOU and participate in the regional program, which could be operational by 2022.

2020 Public Meeting Schedule
Throughout January and February 2020, Vermont state officials and regional planning commission staff are hosting four public information meetings to discuss the Transportation and Climate Initiative (TCI). The meetings will feature a brief overview of TCI and provide detailed information about the specific proposals in the draft regional MOU and the associated modeling results. After the initial presentation, state officials will take questions and ask for feedback on the draft MOU.
