Let’s continue the conversation about East Hardwick’s future!

Come to the “Better Connections” Village gathering on Wednesday, March 12 at 6:30 PM at the Memorial Building, 20 Church Street, Hardwick.

Share your thoughts about the draft report for “Better Connections” in East Hardwick while enjoying some soup with friends and neighbors.

The East Hardwick Better Connections Process is a community-based effort to identify projects to revitalize East Hardwick. Recommendations address:

• Pedestrian and bicycle pathways

• Improved signage and parking

• Initiatives to strengthen Village vitality

The draft report also addresses ways to integrate green stormwater infrastructure into Village streets and sidewalks, while addressing key stormwater runoff issues at and around the Main Street Bridge.

Come to the meeting on March 12th to learn more!

Please see the attached link below. The State of Vermont needs help in order to proceed with the clean up of the debris from the flood that occurred in July. It is very important that property owners report debris to the Town Manager’s Office 802-472-6120. This will help the State of Vermont and State Emergency Management Program know where there needs attention.
