For the past several months, VPR has been working on a project we’re calling Mapping the Money. It takes a look at all the money spent on Tropical Storm Irene recovery and breaks it down into manageable pieces—how much has been spent by the state, and on what projects, where the millions of dollars from FEMA went, and how different NGOs spent their money.
And it’s all done with maps, so you can find out how much money your town received.
Project editor Steve Zind talked with Vermont Edition about the complexities of the project.
