Joanne Stewart sent a link to a story in VTDigger about the new manufacturing company settling in St. Johnsbury. Turns out they will be in the Fairbanks Scale Company building. If you read the article, you'll see that St. Johnsbury (and Lyndonville) have other projects in the works, thanks to some state incentives.

I also want to bring your attention to a comment on the website - I'll quote it here because I think it is important. It's from Dorothea Penar about a new algae bloom:
Comment: We had another small bloom of cyanobacteria in the Narrows cove area. It was of a limited size, but lasted most of the day last Friday. Given that the water is significantly colder and many of the camps are not occupied, I think the heavy rains we had last Wednesday and Thursday may be a significant factor in causing the bloom. Please be aware that storm water runoff brings a lot of nutrients to the pond on all slopes, so avoid fertilizing lawns, avoid clearing the natural vegetation along the shore, and keep the upland trees as much as possible.
