MONTPELIER (AP) - A busload of Vermont lawmakers are getting a tour of economic development projects in the northern Vermont areas of Newport and Jay.

Members of the House Commerce and Economic Development and Transportation committees were scheduled to leave Montpelier Tuesday morning to view projects being launched by Jay Peak resort President Bill Stenger and his partners.

Expansions at Jay Peak and the Burke Mountain ski area, a new hotel and two new manufacturers in Newport are among a group of projects that are expected to bring up to 10,000 jobs to northern Vermont.
