Notice: The Town of St. Johnsbury 2023-24 Rental Housing Improvement Grant Program (RHIGP) opens April 1st, 2023


The Town of St. Johnsbury is accepting applications for grant funding for improvements to rental housing units in St. Johnsbury. The program's purpose is to encourage landlords to invest in rental housing properties in St. Johnsbury. This year, the maximum grant amount has increased from $3,000 to $6,000 due to increased funding from the St. Johnsbury Revitalization Fund. The RHGIP is a reimbursement program; awardees must provide a 1:1 match. The program will result in a more livable, marketable environment for everyone.

The deadline for applications is April 30th, 2023. This is a competitive grant program, and discretionary points are available for projects that align with Universal Design and/or energy efficiency.

For more information or to download an application, visit www.stjvt.com or call/e-mail Kresten Sterling at (802) 748-3926 ext. 9, ksterling@stjvt.com.

The Town of St. Johnsbury Recreation Department has received a Technical Assistance Support Grant from Local Motion and is seeking your feedback. Survey responses will be reviewed by Local Motion staff and used to create conceptual designs that include strategies to improve the connection between the Bay St. corridor/Three Rivers Trailhead Pavilion and the downtown business sector of St. Johnsbury. Local Motion will share preliminary conceptual designs with the community on Sunday, October 11th from 9am-3pm during the Fall for St. Johnsbury festival on Depot Square. Visit the booth to engage with conceptual designs, participate in mini walking and biking audits through the "honking tunnel" connection, and share your feedback. Pedestrians and bikers welcome! (NOTE: Ticket to Ride will offer a bike valet service to safely park your bicycle after your audit so you can explore and enjoy the rest of the festival!)  Following the audits, Local Motion will work over the winter to finalize conceptual designs based on survey and audit results. A full "pop-up" demonstration will be planned for the connection area in Spring/Summer 2027.
