$3 Million Bond

Vermont’s Austine School for the Deaf plans to go green with the help of a nearly $3 million bond. The Vermont Economic Development Authority gave its stamp of approval to the plan along with $15 million in commercial and agricultural financing. The school and 15 other programs are run by the Vermont Center for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. The funds will go to upgrade several buildings on campus including new lighting, insulation and heating system.
