In 1986, Vermont enacted legislation applicable to leases entered into or renewed after July 1, 1986, providing contract remedies to tenants renting substandard dwellings. 9 V.S.A. §§ 4457-4459. The statute, while allowing a tenant to recover damages if the landlord “fails to make repairs within a reasonable time and the noncompliance materially affects health and safety,” § 4458(a), does not appear to contemplate an action for personal injury.
