Berlin's Weston Trailer Park, home to 83 Vermont households, suffered extreme damage from Tropical Storm Irene a year ago.
VTDigger describes the remarkable recovery of this park thanks to the help of volunteers and FEMA.
A year ago since Tropical Storm Irene, Vermonters are coming to terms with the fact that extreme weather events will undoubtedly become more frequent. In response, the Institute for Sustainable Communities, a Montpelier-based nonprofit, is launching a new project called "Resilient Vermont". The goal of the project is to enhance Vermont’s ability to build on lessons learned from last year’s disasters and increase the state’s ability to adapt. The Institute for Sustainable Communities is partnering with the Shumlin Administration, the state’s Department of Economic, Housing, and Community Development and other stakeholders from the public, private, and non-profit sectors to produce tools for the state to improve its resiliency.
