The Burlington Business Association has partnered with a group of prominent local organizations to create Together For Progress, a new initiative which aims to address several key issues facing Burlington.
“There are several excellent proposals being discussed by the Great Burlington community right now and we want to show our support for those projects that align with our mission as well as raise awareness about their benefits,” said BBA Director Kelly Devine. “We believe the Burlington area can maintain its character while it evolves into an even more vibrant place to work, live and raise a family.”
In addition to the BBA, Together For Progress will be bolstered by fellow anchor members AARP Vermont, Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission, Lake Champlain Regional Chamber of Commerce and Local Motion.
