Substantial completion is expected by August 14, 2026, and final completion by September 13, 2026. The project engineer is Robert Clark, P.E. of Otter Creek Engineering in East Middlebury, VT, and the contractor is Isaac's Excavating & Construction Inc. of West Charleston, VT.

Tips for Staying Safe and Healthy in Hot Weather:

• Drink plenty of water, or non-alcoholic and decaffeinated fluids.
• Seek relief in air-conditioned spaces or other cool and shaded places – Find an interactive cooling sites map at HealthVermont.gov/hot-weather.
• Ponds, lakes and rivers may still be too cold for swimming, so approach the water carefully if you want to take a dip to cool off.
• Close window shades during the day. Keep windows closed when it is hotter outside than inside. Avoid using appliances and lights that generate heat.
• Look Before You Lock! Never leave children, people with disabilities, older adults, or pets in a closed vehicle.
• Check on family, neighbors and others that might need extra support staying cool and hydrated.

Rest in a cool place and drink fluids if you start experiencing symptoms of heat illness. If symptoms continue, get worse, or if someone you are with seems confused, loses consciousness, or suddenly stops sweating, dial 9-1-1 and try to cool the person while waiting for help to arrive.

Older adults, people with disabilities and people managing chronic health conditions are often at the highest risk for severe heat illnesses. Other people at high risk include those who work or exercise outdoors, people who are unhoused, pregnant people, young children and people using drugs or alcohol. Consecutive hot days with warm overnight temperatures are particularly dangerous for people without air conditioning – especially if they live alone.

2026.04.30 Town of Sheldon Act 181 Statement.pdf

Montpelier, Vt. – The Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) once again is warning the public of more scam text messages that falsely claim that the recipient has an unpaid traffic ticket and is at risk of driver’s license suspension and other penalties. 

The DMV did not send these messages and does not send any text or email messages demanding immediate payment.

The DMV communicates with customers via the mail and in other ways that are easily recognizable as valid and official because they contain accurate and detailed personally identifiable information.

If you receive an unexpected message about fines or payments, do not click on links, do not provide personal information, and do not make payments.
