Whats everyone’s experience w this? Ive done the math a million times and looked at everything and my family qualifies but its taking a long time to get it processed. Im anxious theres going to be some ridiculous catch or loophole i was unaware of and Ill get denied.

I live in the NEK and recently impulse bought a Coleman Powersports 196cc Gas-Powered Mini Bike B200R.

Not I'm not able to find much online in terms of what is and isn't legal for these baby hogs when it comes to riding on the backroads. Any tips on regulations/resources?

Much appreciated!

The 9/18/2024 press conference at Montpelier City Hall, attended by many municipal leaders calling for the state government (ths Scott administration) to take responsibility for their role in letting this problem fall on strained local governments.

It's a statewide issue, even a national issue, and the state is not doing enough to support local governments in handling the systemic nature of the problem.

FWIW here's what I think should be done: https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/manchester-turns-to-finlands-miracle-cure-for-homelessness-382660/ There's a "miracle solution", and it is to...provide housing.

Looking for hockey goalie interested in adult pick-up game(s) in Waterbury. Thursday nights, 8:30 - 10:00. Mixed skill level. Relaxed, easy going group. One time or more regular basis. Could use one tonight, 9/26. Goalies don’t pay…

Thinking about getting a radio and wanted to know how Meshtastic users are finding it works around here. I'm sure I'll find at least a node or two in Burlington, but are there enough links to actually make it very far out of the area?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a mobile farm machine mechanic to work on older balers, mowers, tedders, etc? We are in Central Vermont. Also looking for someone in Chittenden Co that could meet me to look at some equipment that I am thinking of buying. TIA

Whats the perspective of native or long time Vermonters on this- Would anyone in Vermont care if we made a potentially useful sugaring operation into a residence instead? Also, are we being short sighted to convert such a specific and useful building into a non-useful (for the community and syrup buyers) residence?

We're purchasing many acres of sloped and nearly unusable land with a large sugar shack on a concrete slab at the bottom, with the intent of either learning to sugar or converting the shack to something livable. The property has between 500 - 1000 taps. However, the large and expensive machinery and equipment would almost certainly need to be replaced due to damage and almost all the lines are damaged.

It was on the market for months and no one local wanted it. We've talked directly to neighbors who were encouraging, but may have just been being nice. Some have said maple sugarers pose problems when tapping outside of their property lines so its actually ideal to no longer be sugaring on the property.

The thing is, through no fault of our own, we were born and up to now have mostly lived in states known almost globally for being pretty bad places with pretty shitty people and have done everything we can to not be one of them. I've been working towards living in Vermont for over ten years and I do not want to do anything that doesn't jive with local people, or isn't stewarding the land well, or anything else that could be a negative here.

I have an older car registered in VT with antique plates and have maintained this registration for over two years. I reside out of state in and have an interested buyer. So I'm wondering how to complete the sale. If I understand correctly, I would fill out the lower part of the registration document, assigning the car to the new buyer along with a Bill of Sale. Would he then need to re-register the car in VT before obtaining a new title or registration in his home state or would he take the VT paperwork directly to his DMV?

Please be on the lookout for this bike!

It was stolen off our porch in Winooski on 9/25. The owner (my partner), by sheer coincidence, happened to see the thief riding it around the roundabout on her way home from picking up our toddler nephew. If she hadn’t had a toddler in the car, she says she would have jumped out and confronted the thief.

She said the thief was a young male, crew cut curly brown hair, white t-shirt, riding with two other young men, one of whom was riding a blue-looking BMX. They were last seen around the Mandarin restaurant and (after asking around) we know they stopped to put air in another bike’s tires at the bike shop across from Specs cafe.

The police have already been notified and a report has been filed. We know the only way she’ll get the bike back is if someone happens to see it either out in the wild or being sold somewhere. Please keep an eye out! Thank you!

My partner is opening up a café in central VT and we are seeking used casual furniture for the seating area — tables, chairs, couches, rugs, coffee tables, etc.. Are there websites or auctions where restaurants that have closed sell their furniture? Any advice is appreciated.

Why can't these be posted at midnight?? It's 645am and I am still waiting. WTF? I have bills I want to pay!

The service has gone so downhill since this merger. Time to switch to a different financial institution. What a joke they have become.

Super long shot and I should’ve done this sooner but someone stole my Pokémon and yugioh cards..I figured they might already have been traded or sold to a card shop or Facebook market place. But it’s a Pokémon Mew Two binder that’s grey and purple, mainly filled with eevee cards and other more expensive cards. The yugioh cards are in a golden tin and filled with cards that are in hard cases. All of the yugioh cards are Lost Art for those that know. Idk what I’m even trying to do I guess if you bought them or see them online please DM on here. I’ll gladly buy them back if I have to..they all mean so much to me and I’ll do whatever to get them back, thank you..

Hey all - I make homemade hard ice cream in Burlington on a weekly basis and give it away for free to my neighbors via Front Porch Forum, which has been a fantastic experience. I've used it to drive donations for local charities and to solicit feedback on how to improve my overall product, which gets rave reviews.

Given that I'm in Vermont (moved up a year ago), I'm super interested in trying my hand at creemees (better soft serve, for those like me that are out of staters) and have 19 recipes for different flavors jotted down.

With that said, creemee / soft serve machines are super expensive, heavy and completely impractical for at-home, so I'm wondering if anyone here would have access to a machine somehow? I'd love to try out one of my recipes on it, and will happily reward you with free ice cream and way too much information on the local dairy industry. Happy to travel a couple of hours to give it a whirl if need be. Feel free to private message or comment! Thanks :)

Does anyone know of a vet in Windsor county who might be willing to make a house call to put down an elderly pomeranian ? Lazar Wolf is 15 years old and really struggling. I hate the idea of him suffering for an extended amount of time but he is also scared of going to the vet and it breaks my heart to think of him spending his last moments terrified. When his time comes, I would love to be able to say goodbye while we're at home.

Are there any mountains that still have childcare that you can take your kiddie to for the day while you ski?

Hello, wanted to ask if anybody knows or had experiences w/ Boost Mobile, my mother wants to pay for them instead of Verizon (as we pay 79 dollars every month for both of our phones).

Just wanted to make sure, as, don't wanna be scammed.
