Northeast Public Radio aired a story today about the City of Burlington's "Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice" report.

VHFA Policy & Planning Manager Maura Collins appears in the news segment.

VHFA wrote the report under contract by the Burlington Community & Economic Development Office.

Representatives from VHFA will join people from Burlington Community & Economic Development Office (CEDO) and the Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity (CVOEO) Fair Housing Project (FHP) in presenting the new "Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice" report to the Burlington City Council.

The presentation will take place Monday, Nov. 22, at 7 p.m. in Burlington's Contois Auditorium in City Hall. (Date changed from Nov. 15 —cb)
