COVID-19 Update

To protect the health of our staff and to do our part to reduce the spread of the pandemic, on 3/16 NRPC suspended all external face-to-face meetings and all staff members have been working remotely since that time.
 
We remain committed to serving our role as a technical resource to our communities. Please contact the NRPC and its staff as you would normally by email or phone and we will get back to you.  For staff email addresses and phone extensions click here .
 
If you have questions about municipal continuity of operations planning, Vermont's Open Meeting Law and potential changes or any other matter please call on us.

NRPC will be sending additional updates periodically that will be posted on our facebook page.
 
Thank you for everything that you are doing to support your community and your neighbors. If you have questions or needs, let us know.  We may not have the answer or the resource but we will reach out to those who might.
