Application 4C0844-6 from Town of Williston 7900 Williston Road, Williston, VT 05495 and Champlain Valley School District/ Williston Central School, 195 Central School Drive, Williston, VT 05495 was received on March 10, 2026, and deemed complete on March 16, 2026. The project authorizes the repair of the Allen Brook boardwalk to improve flood resilience after damage from flooding events in 2023, 2024, and a beaver dam breach. This project includes rebuilding a portion of the boardwalk using larger helical piles, minimizing the total number of piles needed. To protect the boardwalk, the design includes filling of eroded areas and stabilization of the slopes with a combination of stone fill at the base, dense graded stone acting as a natural geotextile, and extensive plantings. This project was designed to only use natural materials in conjunction with limited stream armoring to create a stabilized area for the boardwalk while maintaining a natural setting. The project is located at 195 Central School DR in Williston, Vermont. The application may be viewed on the Land Use Review Board’s website (https://act250.vermont.gov/) by clicking “Act 250 Database” and entering the project number “4C0844-6.”
