    Vermont government fails to capture the needs of Southern Vermont by holding these sessions in Montpelier, Burlington. All businesses, including small business owners, wanting to access government contracting cannot take an entire day off from working their business to go up north. This is the 21st century! Is it really beyond the capability of state government to run a “webinar” to allow access to those more than an hour away to participate?

Comment policy

VTD requires that all commenters identify themselves by first and last name. You may wonder why we don't accept anonymous comments. The short answer is: We want to keep the discourse civil.

You might rightly ask, since most online newspapers accept anonymous posts from readers, what makes VTD so special?

The long answer is: Anonymous comments don't support our mission. We are a nonprofit news organization dedicated to enhancing democracy through in-depth journalism. Our role is to foster a civil online discourse, and one very simple and effective way to do that is to require commenters to identify themselves. This isn't a new idea, of course. This is the way newspapers have treated letters to the editor since time immemorial.

As a result of our comment policy, VTD has created a safe zone for readers who want to engage in a thoughtful discussion on a range of subjects. We hope you join the conversation.
