Central Vermont’s Regional Project Priority List

Each year, the Regional Project Priority List for Central Vermont is developed by CVEDC and the Central Vermont Regional Planning Commission. All submitted projects are maintained on the list. The projects are scored and prioritized and the top 10 projects are shared with the Agency of Commerce and Community Development and other state and federal funders. Each of the 12 RDCs of Vermont develop a list for their region, each year. The 120 projects compiled in this work are community-driven, transformative projects that could bring great change to our regions. We look for projects that build capacity in the region for improved economic and community development, that will advance the goals of regional plans, and address the most pressing needs of the region, and have funding gaps.

We are currently updating the 2026 Project List. To submit a project for consideration for CVEDC’s Regional Project Priority list, please complete a RPP Form no later than 5:00 PM on May 1, 2026..
