Vermont Legislative Update 02-05-2021 - An analysis from DRM s Government & Public Affairs Team | Downs Rachlin Martin PLLC

Project based TIFs would expand rural redevelopment The Senate Committee on Economic Development, Housing and General Affairs is considering S.33, a bill that would allow more towns to apply for project-based tax increment financing. TIFs allow municipal governments to fund new private infrastructure projects through the anticipated tax revenue that results from the new projects. S.33 would create a pilot program limited to six projects with a $1.5 million cap per application. This bill was considered last year with a higher limit but was lowered to get the support of the Senate Finance Committee chair. Witnesses testified this week in favor of increasing the cap to at least $4 million.

That question — and, between the lines, a bigger question about what it means to be part of the Grand Old Party in Vermont — was asked out loud on Friday. Going back to the 2016 campaign, Scott has made no secret of his distaste for Republican President Donald Trump, criticizing him openly despite the potential ramifications. Scott was among the first Republican governors to say after Trump’s first impeachment that he should have been convicted and removed from office. He strongly condemned Trump’s role in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. And, unlike many GOP members of Congress, and notably, some leaders within the Vermont GOP, Scott declared that Joe Biden had, indeed, won the presidential election and ought to resign or be removed.
