Snelling weighs regional groups before taking office
Vermont governor elect Richard Snelling signals caution on joining regional bodies like CONEG. He will not decide until after the January 6 inauguration, citing potential diffusion of focus and misaligned interests with northeastern states. He plans an early efficiency study funded by the Vermont Council for Effective Government, aiming to save $10 million to $12 million in state spending.

Kinsey case tests Act 250 revival in Rutland
In Rutland, a motion to dismiss the Mt. Holly Farm Act 250 application is debated at a Rutland District Environmental Commission hearing. Attorney Edward Kile argues the project is essentially the same as Kinsey’s Wildlife Wonderland, applying res judicata and collateral estoppel. Kinsey contends the Mt. Holly Farm is new with a revised septic system, while a California professor asserts no new evidence and potential water pollution.
