This municipal information web page is designed for local officials and members of the public who are looking for information about Vermont's municipal governments and the laws that apply to them.

Our communities could not function without the service and commitment of its public officials.  We believe that it is important that our local leaders and the citizens of our towns have help navigating the complex and ever-changing laws and rules that apply to them.  Consequently we have created a number of resources designed to assist our community leaders.  We have free publications, a monthly newsletter, regular training programs and a helpdesk, all designed to help our local officials and strengthen Vermont's communities.

If you have ideas of other information that would be useful to include in this section of the site, please email Ginny Colbert.

Sincerely,

Deb Markowitz
Vermont Secretary of State
