The paper was part of Wind Ridge Publishing, owned by Holly Johnson. [4] In 2015, Wind Ridge Publishing, which owned The Citizen and Shelburne News, moved its printing operations to Vermont. [5]
In 2017, the Citizen was purchased by the Stowe Reporter Group, under publisher Greg Popa. [6] In January 2019, the Stowe Reporter Group was renamed Vermont Community Newspaper Group. [7]
