Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Saturday, June 7, 2025.

The Burlington Discover Jazz Festival is in full swing this weekend, bringing world-class musicians to our city. Today features a special tribute to hip-hop's relationship with jazz at Waterfront Park, showcasing performances by New Orleans brass musicians. Guest curator Anthony Tidd has done an impressive job bringing together international talent alongside Vermont's local music scene, creating a unique fusion that celebrates both the history and future of jazz. Festival events continue throughout the downtown area, so grab your walking shoes and follow the music.

In local sports, baseball fans should head over to catch the playoff game between Mt. Mansfield and South Burlington varsity teams today. This neutral playoff matchup promises some exciting action on the diamond as these two talented squads face off.

In city government news, Police Chief Jon Murad has announced he will not seek reappointment when his term ends later this month. Mayor Emma Mulvaney-Stanak's administration is likely to begin the search process for a new chief soon.

Speaking of the Mayor, her administration recently celebrated the opening of the middle segment of the Champlain Parkway, which includes a new multi-use path designed to improve pedestrian accessibility in the city. This infrastructure project has been long anticipated by residents.

For those interested in community development, the Governor and Department of Housing & Community Development recently announced recipients of the 2025 Downtown Transportation Fund grant awards, with several Burlington projects receiving funding. These grants aim to enhance transportation infrastructure throughout Vermont's downtown areas.

If you're looking for family activities beyond the jazz festival, remember that many of our parks and recreation facilities are open with extended summer hours. The waterfront area offers plenty of options for enjoying this beautiful June day, from bike rentals to paddleboard opportunities.

The forecast calls for sunshine and comfortable temperatures, making it a perfect day to explore all that Burlington has to offer, whether you're a music lover, sports enthusiast, or simply looking to enjoy our vibrant downtown and lakefront areas.

This has been Burlington Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
