Public Comment & Public Record Information
Public Comments are Public Records: All public comments received by the Green Mountain Care Board, whether posted to the Board’s website or sent only to Board members/staff, are “public records” under Vermont law. This means that, absent a specific exemption under state law, any member of the public may access the Board’s public comments by submitting a public records request.
Posting of Public Comments: The Board will not post public comments on its website where it determines, in its discretion, that the comment contains inappropriate or offensive language.
Please contact Kristen LaJeunesse if you have any questions regarding public comments.
How to Submit a Public Comment
You may submit a comment to the Board at any time by filling out our Public Comment Form.
Ongoing Special Comment Periods
While GMCB accepts public comments at any time, we also conduct Special Comment Periods. Special Comment Periods are about specific, current topics before the Board and have a submission deadline. Special comments are reviewed by Board members prior to scheduled votes and, with permission from the submitter, are posted to our website below. Special comments submitted after the deadline may not be posted online but will always be forwarded to the Board.
