Listen "Vibrant Burlington: Transitions, Tunes, and Tastes for a Lively Midweek"
Episode Synopsis
Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Wednesday, November 5th, 2025. We’re waking up with brisk fall air and plenty of excitement around town, so let’s dive right in.It’s been a week of transition and reflection in Vermont politics. Former State Senator Larry Hart of the Orange District stepped down last month, citing the emotional toll of politics and ongoing grief over personal loss. Hart’s tenure focused on substance-addiction legislation. While his resignation has stirred conversation about representation in politics and party tensions, his legacy remains in notable laws, such as exempting military pensions from state income tax and designating November as the Month of the Veteran. Expect political buzz as discussions continue about who might fill his seat, but for now, Hart is enjoying time with family, guiding others as a life coach, and officiating local weddings and funerals.On campus and around town, Burlington’s calendar is packed with events to get you out and connected today.
