In April’s edition of VermontBiz, we meet the Central Vermont Chamber of Commerce’s 2026 Citizen of the Year: Associated General Contractors of Vermont Executive Vice President Richard Wobby. Wobby was recognized not only for his decades of leadership in Vermont’s construction industry, but for his extensive record of community service, (and the energy and heart he brings to it.)

In Legislative news, The Senate Committee on Natural Resources and Energy managed to thread the needle on amending Acts 181 and 250 right before the crossover deadline.

VermontBiz Construction Industry news points to a paradoxical moment: The pressures are immense, the constraints are real, and yet the work keeps coming.

And don’t miss our special insert in partnership with the Vermont Chamber announcing the 20th annual Best Places to Work in Vermont!

All this and more is in the April Issue of VermontBiz - (Celebrating more than 50 years of) Serious Business...Serious news. For a subscription, call 802-863-8038 or go to vermontbiz.com/subscribe.
