Montpelier Mayor Mary Hooper declared the week of May 18-24 "Montpelier Affordable Housing Week."
The mayor's official declaration recognizes "great leadership" among many interests in working "to increase the number of affordable homes in Montpelier.
"However," it continues, "despite this excellent work to make this city more affordable, there is much work to be done."
Affordable housing week is a "thank you" to Montpelier residents for supporting the Montpelier Housing Trust Fund, and an invitation to celebrate investment in affordable housing close to the downtown area of the capital city.
