• City Council to decide on sale of Main Street properties (vnews.com) — A major West Lebanon decision this Wednesday could shape future housing near White River Junction, as the City Council weighs selling three Main Street properties for a 32-unit affordable project with Twin Pines Housing, based in White River Junction. The same developer previously partnered on the Riverwalk complex in town, and this new plan could add mixed-use space and parking changes just across the river. 
• A Look Back: The genesis of Vermont Public Radio (vnews.com) — Longtime listeners may remember when the White River Junction area had multiple local radio newsrooms, a level of coverage that faded as consolidation took hold. This history of Vermont Public Radio traces how Windsor-based WVPR grew, how local voices like Betty Smith Mastaler shaped programming, and how public broadcasting gradually filled gaps left by shrinking commercial and print newsrooms.
