8. Commissions, Boards, and Committee matters
7:30 P.M.
a. Planning Commission, Town Plan map update, public hearing
The Town Plan guides the vision of the community’s future for land use planning, as required by state
law. The Planning Commission now embarks on the major project of updating the plan every seven
years, an update which will involve extensive community outreach, technical research, and coordination
with other Town committees and the Selectboard. The commission and Selectboard agreed to a joint
meeting with the Selectboard on Thursday, February 12th, in order to align vision and goals at a high
level before diving into their more detailed efforts.
However, before the larger update, the commission observed some minor and technical changes needed
for the maps in the existing plan. Some parcels were classified in error, and some others need to be
changed consistent with state law, or because of the Selectboard’s action in 2025 to amend the sewer
service area. The commission recommended and approved these changes in December and January, and
the board warned a first public hearing for this meeting. The minor changes in no way constrain the
board’s larger considerations around the update of the Town Plan.
The adoption process for town plans is similar to the board’s recent experience with zoning bylaws. Two
hearings are required, with a higher level of newspaper advertising, and the plan can be adopted at
another meeting after the second hearing.
Possible motion: I move to warn a second public hearing related to technical and map amendments to
the Town Plan, for the March 10th meeting of the Selectboard.

9. Resolution on civil rights
Around the country and within Vermont, many localities have expressed support for constitutional order
and concern for the recent violation of the civil rights of immigrants and others, citizen and noncitizen
alike. The board and management issued a statement last week after the arrest of Shelburne nursing
assistant Steven Tendo, and a further resolution on matter generally may be in order.
Possible motion: I move to approve the resolution as presented.

10. Recodification of Ordinances
8:30 P.M.
This project update comes to the Selectboard primarily from the Town Clerk’s office, in partnership
with management and department heads. It represents good legal practice and efficient organization.
Shelburne’s current ordinances have become disorganized over the years. This process of accumulation
and clutter was a familiar topic during the zoning update. When a new ordinance is adopted, it tends to
be added to a growing pile. Time passes, and the state laws which support the Town ordinances change,
creating cross-referencing errors.
Recodification is a contracted legal service which reviews all Town ordinances for state and federal
compliances, reorganizes them for quicker reference, and reformats them for consistent reading. Such
projects are laborious, and the Town contracted with a specialist firm called General Code to do the
work more efficiently than the regular Town attorneys. The contract price of $16,500 was an approved
project budgeted in 2024 and continuing into the current year.
There are no major changes in the Town’s policy and practice through this project, and most edits are
technical. Where state law allows for more flexibility on the Town’s part
No Selectboard action is needed, but discussion of the updated ordinances is welcome. Once the project
is complete the recodified ordinance will return to the board for the normal adoption process of first
reading, public hearing and adoption.

11. CHIP, Community Housing and Infrastructure Program
7:40 P.M.
According to Vermont’s Agency of Commerce and Community Development,
“The Community and Housing Infrastructure Program (CHIP) is a statewide tax increment financing
tool designed to help Vermont communities unlock housing opportunities by investing in critical public
infrastructure. With CHIP, $2 billion can be invested between now and 2035, one of the largest
investments in municipal infrastructure in Vermont history. CHIP enables municipalities to finance
essential infrastructure (like water, sewer, roads, and stormwater systems) that supports new housing
development. It allows towns and cities to:
• Access long-term financing without raising local property taxes
• Capture a portion of new property tax revenues from future development
• Invest in public improvements that directly support the creation of homes
Infrastructure is one of the biggest barriers to housing development in Vermont. CHIP provides a
scalable, municipality-driven solution to this challenge by giving communities the financial tools to:
• Grow their grand lists
• Develop the types of housing most needed in their community
• Support economic growth and workforce needs
• Help generate an estimated $380 million in new Education Fund revenue over time, without raising
taxes
Municipalities apply to the Vermont Economic Progress Council (VEPC) to designate housing
development sites. Once approved, towns can retain a portion of new property tax revenue to pay for
infrastructure investments for up to 20 years:
• Not less than 85% of new municipal tax increment
• Up to 75% of education tax increment for market-rate developments
• Up to 85% of education tax increment for developments with at least 15% affordable units
• Both rental and homeownership projects are eligible.
Debt may be issued by municipalities, developers, or third-party sponsors.”
The Town of Shelburne is considering several sites for possible CHIP projects. Because of the
complexity of the CHIP process,
applicable housing projects should be of
a certain scale, perhaps 50 or more
homes. The eligible infrastructure will
vary by location. CHIP is very appealing
for the Town’s wastewater needs, as
aging wastewater pump stations (costing
over $1 million) often need to be
replaced in order to support new
customers. It may also be possible to
claim a portion of the $40+ million
wastewater plant consolidation project
with CHIP financing, because the plant
serves the new homes. Another Town
www.shelburnevt.org

goal supported by CHIP is mobility. Sidewalks and paths are eligible, both on the project site and
potentially off site, connecting to other parts of town. Interestingly, CHIP specifically supports
community-scale geothermal facilities, which achieve efficient heating and cooling with groundwater.
Image credit: Dr. Cynthia Rogers, University of Oklahoma
Two locations appear to have the best fit between Town and developer needs. At the Brandon-Crombach
project at Route 7 and Clearwater, 63 homes have been approved, with requirements for homeownership
and no affordability subsidy. The Town has a failing wastewater pump station nearby. At the O’Brien
project at Irish Hill, about 350 homes are proposed, with specific commitments for mixed-income
affordability. There are extensive impacts to wastewater and transportation infrastructure.
Discussion about Town priorities for CHIP funding is welcome, especially as to the type of community
assets which should be priorities. If and when staff are able to draft housing infrastructure agreements
that meet state standards, for either project, they will be presented for a required public hearing.
The financial analysis for CHIP applications requires some specialist consulting related to financial
analysis, contracting, and regulatory compliance. The expert real estate consultant in Vermont is White
& Burke. Staff propose a sole source contract with them to support the CHIP applications. Such costs
are themselves eligible as CHIP expenses.
Possible Motion: I move to approve an economic development expense of $25,000 for consulting
services supporting CHIP program applications.

12. Liquor licenses
8:00 P.M.
The Selectboard acts as a Liquor Control Commission and coordinates with state authorities the
permission to sell alcohol in town. The process is somewhat archaic, and board members requested a
more efficient process. Research to other Vermont towns shows that a batch renewal is possible. There
are no Police Department objections to the current applications. However, three of the business are
chronically delinquent in property taxes and/or utility bills, which should be considered.
Possible Motion: I move to suspend the meeting of Shelburne Selectboard and convene the Shelburne
Liquor Control Commission.
and
Possible Motion: I move to renew the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd licenses as presented, including the specified
outside consumption and tobacco endorsements. <with the exception of those delinquent in Town bills>
and
Possible Motion: I move to adjourn the meeting of Shelburne Selectboard and convene the Shelburne
Liquor Control Commission.
To summarize, the 24 establishments in Shelburne are Archie’s Grill, Barkeaters, Cucina Antica,
Electra’s, Fiddlehead Brewery Tasting Room, the Inn at Shelburne Farms, Jiffy Mart, Kinney Drugs,
Kwiniaska Golf Club, Panache of Paris (Le Marche), Namaste Kitchen, Red Panda Shelburne, Route 7
Liquor & Deli, Rustic Roots, Shelburne Country Store, Shelburne Farms, Shelburne Fig, Shelburne
Meat Market, Shelburne Tap House, Shelburne Vineyard, Spillane’s ServiceCenter, Village Wine &
Coffee, Walgreen’s, and Waterfront Catering Group. The Town appreciates their efforts in local
business.

passed 5-0.
5. PUBLIC COMMENTS RE: ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA
Ms. Zenaty said that she would like to see agendas posted on Front Porch Forum as has been past
practice. Ms. Bargfrede said that she has not seen any improvement in the situation at Harbor
Place since the past meeting. She is a neighbor to the property and said that several cars are loudly
running their vehicles for 20-30 minutes several times each night. She has had contact with town
staff, the police and Harbor Place staff and has not had anything remedied. Mr. Ashooh said that
this is a neighbor dispute and not something that the Selectboard can address. Ms. Bargfrede spoke
about the significant impact that Harbor Place has had on her and her family. Mr. Flore suggested
setting up a meeting with Harbor Place staff to discuss the issue and said he will attempt to locate
the vehicles. He will also confirm if there is on-site security at night. M. Lawless will be testifying
before the legislature regarding the motel program later this week and will mention some of the

impacts these have had on local communities. Ms. Zenaty suggested contacting the Executive
Director of Champlain Housing Trust.
Ms. Albert said that she is concerned that to the budgetary request from the Shelburne Natural
Resources Committee for open space has been reduced and that it that it will not be voted on
separately. Mr. Ashooh said that he agreed that this lacked transparency and was done in an effort
to quickly reduce the budget. Public discussion was held on the issue, but it was a policy decision
that was made with minimal public input. Several other items in the budget were handled similarly.
He said that this is a departure from the normal processes. The Board discussed the very difficult
decisions that needed to be made in the budget process, and the desire to be responsive to the needs
and desires of the community. Mr. Everett discussed different priorities in the town and a desire
expressed by some not to include money in the fund as it is not frequently spent. Mr. Lawless said
that Shelburne came very close to cutting pay and benefits. Ms. Hillman said that she believes
that open space should be included in the budget as a line item.
Mr. Lawless said that the Town of Shelburne is not rebuilding a facility for the Scouts, however
they are sharing a building that is also being used as the buildings and grounds shop by the Town
of Shelburne. Mr. Pennington said that it appears that the Board speaks positively about
conservation but is not willing to fund it. He also spoke against removing the Forest Block/Priority
Ecological Corridor regulations from the Land Development Code. He said that the decision to
create the working group relating to Forest Block/Priority Ecological Corridor regulations was not
read into the record and said that it is stacked in favor of non-conservation sources. Mr. Ashooh
encouraged Mr. Pennington to attend the meetings, encouraged similar-minded people to attend,
ensure that the meetings are transparent and that the discussion proceeds in a manner that addresses
the issue. Mr. Pennington encouraged additional discussions on open space funding to occur later.
Ms. George said that many people cross outside of the crosswalk at Bay Ridge and said that she
would encourage that this is brought up with Champlain Housing Trust. Ms. Albert said that the
funds being spent on the equipment shed (Building and Grounds Facility) could better be allocated
for open space needs. Mr. Albert said that it is hopefully not too late to make a budgetary
correction for this purpose. Mr. Everett said that everyone had to lose in this budget, and that all
departments were affected by cuts. He said that it would be helpful to have a strategic plan for
conservation to propose to the Selectboard for how the funds can be used. Mr. Albert said that it
is important to get the consensus of the town on the issue. Mr. Wormser said that better strategic
planning regarding open space is necessary.
6. SELECTBOARD COMMENTS
Mr. Everett said that he is in support of those protesting ICE activities in Minnesota, and
throughout the country. All concurred.
a. Town Manager Contract Renewal
Mr. Ashooh said that the Town of Shelburne has renewed Mr. Lawless’s contract for four years
and is very happy with the work that he has performed in the past three years.

Deputy Town Manager; Josh Flore, Police Chief; Fire Department Staff: Ben Rivard, Zander Preis,
Garrett Gruendling and Charlie Jones.
8. COMMISSIONS, BOARDS, and COMMITTEE MATTERS
None.
9. ZONING
MATT WORMSER made a motion, seconded by ANDREW EVERETT, to open the public
hearing on the Shelburne Unified Land Use Regulation. Motion passed 5-0.
Mr. DeNamur said that the updated Planning Commission report is included in the packet, with
references to forest blocks and ecological corridors removed. Mr. Kendall said that he feels that
many of the desired goals were accomplished with this document. Mr. Ashooh requested public
comment, of which there was none.
MATT WORMSER made a motion, seconded by ANDREW EVERETT, to close the public
hearing. Motion passed 5-0.
10. TOWN MEETING WARNING
Mr. Lawless said that the draft in the packet represents the budget and the items that are typically
addressed during Town Meeting.
MIKE ASHOOH made a motion to remove $25,000 from the line item and put $75,000 on a
ballot item.
Discussion: Mr. Ashooh said that the total amount of the budget could be kept the same and the
number reconfigured to ensure funding for conservation.
Vote: No second, thus no vote. Motion failed.
MIKE ASHOOH made a motion to put $75,000 in the budget as a separate item to be voted
on as one-time funding with an appropriate additional tax rate on top. Friendly amendment
by CHUNKA MUI to amend the amount to $750,000. Friendly amendment accepted by
MIKE ASHOOH.
Mr. Mui said that serious money is required and asked that real decisions be made rather than
token gestures. He would like to put forward enough funds to actually do something with. He
repeatedly clarified that this motion was serious. Mr. Ashooh said that he does not believe that
this amount is a serious attempt at solving the problem. Mr. Wormser said that he is unsure about
adding funds without strategic planning. Mr. Everett said that Shelburne has not done anything to
truly solve the problem of open space, and this gives voters a way of truly investing. Ms. Hillman
said that options should be placed on the ballot for several different initiatives important to the
community.

Voting: Not held, MIKE ASHOOH retracted the motion.
MIKE ASHOOH made a motion, to add a penny on the tax rate, to be split evenly between
bikes, paths and open space.
Discussion: Mr. Ashooh clarified that this is to build funds. Mr. Kendall said that he is supportive
of open space but considers voting on individual issues/land items to be unfair. There are many
things, including open space, that are valued by the town of Shelburne. Mr. Mui said that he
believes that this amount of funds would not be consequential.
Voting: Not held, MIKE ASHOOH retracted the motion.
Mr. Ashooh said that a bond item should be revisited, as well as a implementing land trust or other
organization to steer discussion.
MATT WORMSER made a motion, seconded by ANDREW EVERETT, to publish the
Town Meeting Warning for 2026.
Discussion: Barb Johnson asked about the bond request item and asked if the spending for each of
the buildings is defined. Mr. Lawless said that this will be provided closer to the meeting date.
Voting: Motion passed 5-0.
11. SPEED LIMITS ORDINANCE
Mr. Lawless said that this is not a formal public hearing and will need to be re-warned. Mr. Flore
said that Shelburne-Hinesburg Road is posted at 45 mph, but the ordinance lists it as 40 mph. He
would like the Board’s input in how to proceed. Mr. Wormser expressed a desire for additional
studies but said that he is comfortable with the limits as is. All agreed. Ms. Hillman expressed a
desire for more enforcement. Ms. Zenaty discussed her involvement in previous speed-lowing
efforts and encouraged the Selectboard to ensure that state criteria is met. Mr. Flore explained the
legal process of changing speed limits. He also said that, after the ordinance is passed, additional
criteria could be developed specifically for the Town of Shelburne. Mr. Mui said that it is essential
to act on a currently deadly situation rather than worry about someone potentially challenging the
ordinance. Barb Johnson said that Falls Road is just as dangerous as Bay Road, and that the speed
limit in this area should be lowered as well.
ANDREW EVERETT made a motion, seconded by MATT WORMSER, to approve on first
reading, the updated Speed Limits Ordinance as amended, and to warn a public hearing on
the matter for the February 10 meeting of the Selectboard. Motion passed 5-0.
Mr. Ashooh said that the amendment is to keep Shelburne-Hinesburg Road at 45 mph.
12. EXECUTIVE SESSION
CHUNKA MUI made a motion, seconded by ANDREW EVERETT, to find that preliminary
general public knowledge regarding the Town’s contracts would clearly place the Town or a

SHELBURNE SELECTBOARD

person involved at a substantial disadvantage because the business markets could change
significantly if development details were discussed in public. Motion passed 5-0.
CHUNKA MUI made a motion, seconded by MATT WORMSER, to enter into executive
session pursuant to Vermont Statutes section 313 a.1.A, contracts, and to invite Matthew
Lawless and Aaron DeNamur to the session.
After exiting Executive Session, the following motion was made.
CHUNKA MUI made a motion, seconded by ANDREW EVERETT, to authorize a transfer
of $18,000 from the Town Manager’s office budget to Experience Shelburne for contracted
economic development studies. Motion passed 5-0.

A RESOLUTION CONDEMNING ATTACKS ON DUE PROCESS AND
AFFIRMING THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS OF ALL PEOPLE
IN THE TOWN OF SHELBURNE
WHEREAS, the United States Constitution guarantees due process, equal protection, and fundamental
rights to all persons, regardless of citizenship status, immigration status, race, sex, sexual orientation,
gender identity, religion, or political belief; and
WHEREAS, recent actions by federal authorities, including detention of legal residents in Vermont and
in Shelburne without clear justification or timely access to legal counsel, represent a dangerous
escalation of government overreach and a violation of these constitutional protections; and
WHEREAS, history has shown that violations of the rights of one group leads to abuses against other
groups: first against immigrants, then against dissenters, and eventually against anyone who does not
conform to the views of those in power.
BE IT RESOLVED that the members of the Selectboard of the Town of Shelburne unequivocally
condemn all violations of due process and the abusive exercise of government power targeting groups of
individuals based on race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, social class, ethnicity, or
citizenship status;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Town of Shelburne affirms its unwavering commitment to
supporting and protecting the rights of ALL people in our town, regardless of citizenship status, national
origin, political belief, or any other identity.

Overview

Vermont’s Municipal & Regional Planning & Development Act (24 V.S.A §4384) requires
a municipal planning commission to prepare a written report on a proposed plan/plan
amendment.
The report addresses necessary content, how the plan is consistent with the Act’s goals,
changes to land areas, and other matters.
After completion of the prompts below, save the document and upload the report as a
PDF on the State’s Plan and Bylaw Intake Form. The municipal plan is also submitted
as a PDF upload on the intake form. If you need assistance, please reach out to the
contact above or your municipality’s regional planning commission.
Submission of the intake form and written report serves as notification to the
Department of Housing and Community Development within the Agency of Commerce
and Community Development under 24 V.S.A. §4384(e).
The submitted written report and proposed plan are public records published on the
Vermont Planning Data Center and Library. Municipal plan submission and posting

Vermont Municipal Plan Written Report/Reporting Form
supports transparency and the availability of Vermont’s proposed and adopted plans
from a central digital source for statewide access and use.
This report is in accordance with 24 V.S.A. §4348(c), which states:

Goal Consistency

(c) When considering an amendment to a plan, the planning commission shall prepare a
written report on the proposal. The report shall address the extent to which the plan,
as amended, is consistent with the goals established in section 4302 of this title.

The proposed amendment to the municipal plan, which includes the expansion of the
growth area, via the sewer service area, to incorporate several new parcels, is
consistent with the goals outlined in 24 V.S.A. §4302. Not all goals in Section 4302 are
directly applicable to this minor amendment to mapping. Specifically, the amendment
supports:
(Goal: To plan development so as to maintain the historic settlement pattern of compact
village and urban centers separated by rural countryside.)
The inclusion of these parcels within the designated growth area reinforces compact
development by directing new housing into areas with existing or planned infrastructure.
(Goal: To provide for safe, convenient, economic, and energy efficient transportation
systems that respect the integrity of the natural environment, including public transit
options
and paths
for alter
pedestrians
and bicycles.)

would be addressed during the development review process.
By extending sewer service to these parcels, the town is ensuring that new development
occurs in areas where municipal services can be efficiently delivered.
Land Use Pattern: The amendment reinforces the town’s land use goals by focusing
development within the growth area, reducing sprawl, and preserving rural and
agricultural lands outside the service area.

Community Character: The development is designed to integrate with existing
neighborhoods and enhance community cohesion through walkability, green space, and
mixed housing types.

Benefits

(2) The long-term cost or benefit to the municipality, based upon consideration of the
probable impact on:
(A) the municipal tax base; and
(B) the need for public facilities.
(A) Municipal Tax Base:
The proposed development will significantly increase the town’s grand list, contributing
to a stronger municipal tax base and long-term fiscal sustainability.
(B) Public Facilities:
The extension of sewer service to these parcels allows for efficient use of existing
infrastructure. The scale of the development may require some investment in public
facilities (e.g., roads, schools), but these costs are expected to be offset by increased
tax revenue and developer contributions.

Availability of Vacant Land

(3) The amount of vacant land which is:
(A) already subject to the proposed new designation; and
(B) actually available for that purpose, and the need for additional land for that
purpose.
A) The parcels being added to the sewer service area are not currently designated for
this level of residential development. The parcel is a 197- acre parcel of land located in
the Town of Shelburne and identified as SPAN #582-183-10912. Approximately 110
acres of this Parcel are located north of Thomas Road and southeast of Irish Hill Road,
and the remainder of the acreage is located south of Thomas Road.
(B) There is limited land within the existing service area that is both vacant and suitable
for large-scale housing. This parcel does not have any ecological or other environmental
conditions that would make it inadvisable to develop.
(C) The inclusion of these parcels addresses a clear need for additional land to
accommodate Shelburne’s growing housing demand, especially for diverse and
affordable housing options.

Suitability of Area

(4) The suitability of the area in question for the proposed purpose, after consideration
of:
(A) appropriate alternative locations;
(B) alternative uses for the area under consideration; and
(C) the probable impact of the proposed change on other areas similarly
designated.

(A) Alternative Locations:
Other areas within the town were considered, but few offer the same combination of
size, infrastructure access, and proximity to services. The Town of Shelburne's 2021
Sewer Capacity Allocation Ordinance, also a "municipally adopted service and capacity
agreement" under Act 47, limits sewer capacity to the sewer service area designated on
the 2001 Town of Shelburne Map of Sewer Service Area. While the Town was not
required to modify its service areas to include the property, the Town and parties agree
that the intent of Act 47 is to encourage Towns to modify existing Town regulations to
allow for increased housing densities.
(B) Alternative Uses:
While the land could be used for lower-density development or remain undeveloped,
the town’s housing needs and infrastructure planning support its use for higher-density
residential development. The parcel will be split up in two. Prior to the issuance of the

Re:

Request for Approval of a Sole Source Contract for White + Burke Real Estate Advisors, Inc. to deliver
CHIP-related technical consultancy services

Executive Summary
The Town of Shelburne proposes to retain White + Burke Real Estate Advisors, Inc., a real estate consulting
firm, to provide specialized technical consultancy services to support the preparation and submission of a
Community and Housing Infrastructure Program (CHIP) 1 application to the Vermont Economic Progress
Council (VEPC). The Town, partnering with housing developers Crombach Brandon Enterprises, LLC, and
utilizing the CHIP program would enable the municipality to upgrade the Shelburne Shoreline wastewater
infrastructure, “but for” these improvements the new housing units would not be built. Other infrastructure
works to include sidewalks, streetscapes, land scaping and other utilities would also be included in the CHIP
housing infrastructure project. The initial technical consultancy services contract is for 100 hours at a rate of
$250.00 per hour for a total cost of $25,000.00.

Background
Crombach Brandon Enterprises, LLC, led by developers Shelley Crombach and Stephen Brandon, aims to
create 63 units of new primary residences located on a combination of two properties at 2882 and 2870
Shelburne Road in Shelburne. The Town of Shelburne is partnering with the developer on this housing
development and seeks to utilize the Community and Housing Infrastructure Program (CHIP) to upgrade
Shelburne’s Shoreline wastewater infrastructure “but for” these improvements, the new housing units would not
be built.

The Community Housing Infrastructure Program (CHIP) is a project-based infrastructure financing tool created by Vermont’s
State Legislature to help communities build the infrastructure necessary for housing developments (roads, water/sewer,
utilities etc.). It uses a form of tax increment financing (TIF) tied specifically to housing.

1

1

The Crombach Brandon housing development consists of 7 single family homes, 55 multi-family homes and a
small amount of commercial office space. The housing development is bordered by US Route 7 to the east,
Vermont Rail to the west, Clearwater Road to the south and Wild Rose Circle to the north.
Upgrading the Town’s wastewater infrastructure is essential for the Crombach Brandon housing development to
proceed. This is because the pump station is operating at or near capacity and is under a State-imposed
limitation that prohibits any additional connections in its current condition. The upgrade will include
replacement/upsizing of pumps, force main, mechanical equipment, as well as upgrades to structural, electrical
and control systems. Once upgraded, the Shoreline wastewater pump station’s expanded capacity will be
reliably able to serve existing users and the new housing development. Other infrastructure associated with the
housing development, including sidewalks, streetscapes, landscaping and other utilities would also be funded by
CHIP.
The Town’s use of CHIP, in partnership with developers Crombach Brandon, represents a win-win for all
parties, and for Shelburne more broadly. Specifically, the new development helps meet the increasing demand
for housing, grows the Town’s grand list and property tax revenues, and does not increase current homeowners’
taxes or fees.

The Case for Sole Sourcing
White + Burke Real Estate Advisors, Inc., is the only consulting firm with substantial TIF experience in
Vermont. Moreover, White + Burke’s president was instrumental in drafting the CHIP legislation and testified
frequently about it to the State Legislature. The firm closely followed the CHIP guidelines and offered
testimony and comments as the State worked to refine these. Their team members have extensive knowledge
and relationships with Vermont Economic Progress Council (VEPC) staff and Board members.
After setting up the following TIF Districts, White + Burke continues to serve as consultants to these cities and
towns:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Barry City Downtown
Burlington Downtown
Hartford Downtown
Killington
Rutland
St. Albans City Downtown

White + Burke also consulted on Burlington Waterfront, Milton Town Core and Winooski Downtown TIF
Districts.
In sum, White + Burke Real Estate Advisors, Inc., possesses the combination of niche skills – planning,
housing, financial analysis and VEPC relationships, as well as extensive TIF-related experience -- to guide
Shelburne through the entire CHIP application process.

Financial Impact of Consultancy Services
The Town of Shelburne proposes retaining the technical consultancy services of White + Burke Real Estate
Advisors, Inc., to support the preparation and submission of its first CHIP application to VEPC. White + Burke
is expected to provide initially 100 hours of consultancy services at a rate of $250.00 per hour for a total
contract of $25,000.00.
2

Because CHIP is a new tool, it is not entirely clear, at this time, how many hours of consultancy services would
be required from White + Burke to prepare and finalize a CHIP application. White + Burke has informed the
Town for small municipalities with limited capacity, this is averaging about 200 hours, although much will
depend on the work tasks which are assumed and undertaken by the Town.
According to the CHIP guidelines, costs incurred by the municipality (and sponsor and/or developer) associated
with the creation, implementation, and administration of the CHIP site, including an application to VEPC, are
eligible related costs and may be reimbursed from the tax increment generated by the housing development,
once the project is completed.

Capacity Building of Town Staff
The Town anticipates the Crombach Brandon development to be its first CHIP-related housing project, and that
other housing developments utilizing this program will follow. Retaining technical consultancy services from
White + Burke will help build the internal capacity of the Town staff by providing specialized expertise and
tools, facilitate knowledge transfer and thus enable our municipal team to take on more of the CHIP-related
tasks associated with future housing developments.

Selectboard Motion
Move to approve a sole sourcing contract for White + Burke Advisors, Inc., initially for 100 hours of
specialized technical consultancy services in the amount of $25,000, to support the preparation of a CHIP
application for submission to the Vermont Economic Progress Council (VEPC).
