From the organizer:

Please vote no on Ballot Item No 2. in order to reject incentives for polluting, destructive and false climate solutions.

The question asks voters to allow the City to impose a fee on new buildings and large, existing commercial and industrial buildings that install fossil fuel rather than renewable heating for the stated purpose of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The question does not inform voters that the City considers renewable heating to include systems fueled by wood, including wood burned in the McNeil plant which the City proposes to retrofit to supply steam heat to the University of Vermont Medical Center, the UVM campus and the Intervale Center. The question also does not inform voters that the City considers renewable heating systems to include systems fueled by "renewable" gas and biodiesel. Because all three of these "renewable" fuel sources would not be subject to the fee, imposing a fee on fossil fuel heating systems would incentivize them. Incentivizing these types of carbon-intensive, polluting "renewable" fuel sources would increase greenhouse gas emissions, adversely impact public health, and impair forest biodiversity.

Proponents of this question will tell you that this project has nothing to do with the McNeil Generating Station, but the carbon impact fee as written represents a last ditch effort to make the proposed district energy project economically viable after repeated attempts to advance the project have been rejected due to a lack of financial viability. Burning wood emits more carbon dioxide per unit of energy produced than burning fossil fuels, emits other air pollutants harmful to human health, and causes destruction and impairment of the biodiversity of our forests. The McNeil plant is the largest stationary source of greenhouse gas and other harmful air pollutants in Vermont. Rather than prop-up the plant, the City should begin planning for the retirement of the aging, polluting plant.

From the organizer:

Unsure about the meaning of charter changes, petitions, initiatives, referendums, etc? Forget the FUD! Let's grab a bite and talk ballot initiatives and referendums with our neighbors and fellow Burlingtonians!

Learn about townhall democracy, Vermont's longtime tradition of grassroots decision making and what meaningful participation looks like. Awaken the hidden superpower vested in our hands and use them to fight for a better future!

From Burlington Progressives TV:

In 2020 and 2021, Burlington residents reacted to incidents of excessive force by BPD officers by calling for real community oversight of the police department. After the Mayor vetoed a charter change ballot item to place a community oversight board before the voters, over 2100 voters petitioned to place an item on this year's Town Meeting ballot. We will discuss this proposal and the reasons for it with a member of the community group, Tyler Pastorok.

Tyler Pastorok, member of People for Police Accountability. Hosted by Gene Bergman, Ward 2 City Councilor.
