Congressman Peter Welch holds a press conference at Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium in St. Johnsbury to discuss the federal funding and his support for the museum's new Science Annex, which will be the future home of the Community College of Vermont’s St Johnsbury site. Additionally, the Science Annex, as Vermont’s demonstration mass timber building, is designed to showcase the innovative use of local forest products.
Rep. Welch selected the Science Annex as one of 10 community projects in Vermont for funding in the FY2022 Appropriations Bill. The $2.47 million appropriation through the US Department of Agriculture’s Community Facilities program is contingent on the federal budgeting process.
