Weinberger to Step Down after Third Term

Breaking News


Burlington mayor Miro Weinberger announced Friday that he would not seek a fourth 3-year term as the chief executive of Vermont's largest city, saying that after nearly a decade since his first election in 2012, it will be time to pass the pass the torch to new leadership in 2021.

Citing the city's improved bond rating, new housing projects, and nuts and bolts accomplishments like the replacement of aging water mains, Weinberger also acknowledged criticism on a number of fronts, most notably the failed "City Place" project that remains a blight on the downtown core, and numerous widely decried ethical violations by his former police chief Brandon Del Pozo.

Del Pozo resigned abruptly himself only last month to become a full-time social media consultant for the New York City police department's 120th precinct in Staten Island.

The Burlington Democratic party will choose a new candidate for mayor at their nominating caucus in January of 2021...

  2. Speaking for the other 1% (the young at heart), we find this news.. a good start. Like ten billionaires at the bottom of the sea. Living in their own underwater gated aquarium. Or Donald Trump’s vocal chords behind glass in the Smithsonian. Thanks for the news to amuse.
