Burlington, Vermont is one of the five city winners of the contest that asked public agencies to give innovative proposals for investment in local projects. Congrats to Jase and the Neighborly team on its a successful contest to help modernize public finance!
“This award is welcome news at a time when the City is focused on infrastructure investment,” said Mayor Miro Weinberger. “I am excited about the potential for this award and this new technology-based platform to bring down the cost of our Sustainable Infrastructure Plan for the 21st Century. I hope voters will see in this news another example of how the City is using innovation and hard work to bring down the cost of necessary, responsible local government investment. It is also exciting that winning this competition will create a new civic opportunity for Burlingtonians to directly invest in the City’s future.”
