With the influx of funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), there is a great opportunity to implement decentralized wastewater solutions in communities without any public water or wastewater infrastructure. Many Vermont communities are struggling to move projects on a fast-track schedule to take advantages of these funding opportunities. Even those that have worked through extensive planning efforts are experiencing opposition and failed bond votes. This session is intended to share some past experiences in Vermont to provide some guidance with topics such as anticipating and addressing opposition to the project, considerations after a failed bond vote, and resources for conflict resolution.
