MIDDLEBURY — In what amounted to a Middlebury business community town meeting, about 75 local business men and women, area professionals and community leaders listened to a presentation Tuesday night concerning Middlebury’s economic future. The meeting was hosted by the Middlebury Business Association and held at the Middlebury College Kirk Alumni Center.
National Bank President Ken Perine framed the evening’s focus with a challenge to community leaders to help the town position itself for the new economic paradigm that will rise out of today’s service economy.
“Let’s face it,� Perine told the crowd, “just as agriculture will likely never be the dominant industry in our area again, manufacturing on the scale we saw it in the past 30 years will likely never be seen again in our town. We are morphing into a service economy, more sooner than later, and this has tremendous ramifications for our economy and the organizations charged with keeping it vibrant.�

STARKSBORO — Lori Russell is renting the former Starksboro town clerk’s office and will be opening a general store in the space.
The Starksboro resident thinks the store, to be called the Starksboro Country Store, will be ready for business some time in May.
Starksboro has been without a store like this for about four years since the previous one closed, and Russell thinks that needs to be fixed. “I really think our town has missed it,� she said. “We’re a very tight community here in Starksboro, and I think we need something like this.�
The “country convenience store,� as Russell called it, will have a creemee window, and will feature as many locally made products as possible, including maple syrup from her family’s farm.

ADDISON COUNTY — The final appearance of the Vermont Electric Power Co.’s 115-kilovolt line between New Haven and South Burlington is now being decided in negotiations before the Public Service Board (PSB) that include VELCO, towns, individual residents and the Addison County Regional Planning Commission (ACRPC).
At stake are the locations and appearance of major substations in Vergennes and Ferrisburgh, the heights of poles at many road crossings and near some homes, the placement of poles and guy wires in residents’ yards and fields, and the amount of landscaping VELCO will provide to screen its 115-kV line in many places.
