Established in 2002, the Poultney Downtown Revitalization Committee, Inc. (PDRC) is a 501(3)(c) non-profit charged with overseeing activities pertaining to bolstering Poultney’s Designated Downtown.

As a result of our designation, businesses, non-profits, and income-producing properties (e.g. rentals) in buildings over 30 years old that operate within the Designated Downtown are eligible for state and federal tax credits for façade work and various code improvements. In addition, the Town, Village, non-profits, and others can receive priority consideration for many State grant opportunities, and our municipalities have access to Vermont’s Downtown Transportation Fund for transportation-related capital improvements within or serving the designated area.
