2023 Phone Directory Inaccuracies

The phone number for the Town office listed in the Hardwick Area Phone Directory published by Fortune Marketing is incorrect.

The correct phone number for the Town office is: 802.456.7051 not 802.472.5715 .

The phone number for the Woodbury Elementary School located on Valley Lake Road is: 802.472.5715. The Phone Directory has this number listed incorrectly as Woodbury, Town of RTE 14 WDBY.

The 802.456.8833 phone number should be identified as the Woodbury Town Garage.

Flood Recovery Update

Update 7/13/2023 at 10:30 AM

Route 14 south of the village is open but very rough. There is a very large crew working to repair Route 14 north. Be aware there will be many large trucks on 14.

Town roads are open, many only one lane. Road crews are working on repairs so expect closures and delays.

The post office is closed until further notice due to flooding in the basement. According to the post master mail would be available at the Hardwick post office. The fire department is working to remove the water. No expected reopen date at this time.

The fire station has been badly damaged but crews worked very hard yesterday clearing the mud out and removing wet things. Trucks are back in the bays for now.

Hardwick Ambulance will cover Woodbury for the parts of town they can reach. East Montpelier ambulance will cover the remainder of the town. The fire department will provide first response to the parts of town we can reach in Woodbury and Calais. Call 911 for any fire or medical emergencies.

District 6 EMS came to town last night and provide 8 fully stocked EMS bags to replace our destroyed equipment. Thank you.

I would like to thank the volunteer firefighters who have worked so many hours over the past few days to respond to many emergency calls and get our emergency services back in order. We have much more to do in the coming days; your service has helped many. Thank you.

Woodbury Town Plan Awarded “Plan of the Year”

The Vermont Planning Association has awarded the Woodbury Planning Commission and the Town of Woodbury the “Plan of the Year” for its Town Plan,  Vision for the Future, 2021 Town Plan of Woodbury VT.

Here’s an excerpt from an email sent to the Town by the Awards Committee Chair of the Vermont Planning Association:  “I am pleased to extend my warmest congratulations on behalf of the Vermont Planning Association for your outstanding achievement in winning the Plan of the Year for; Vision for the Future, 2021 Town Plan of Woodbury VT. Your dedication and hard work have truly made a meaningful and long-lasting impact on your community and the state of Vermont.”

It goes without saying that without each member of the Planning Commission’s continued commitment to the project and ongoing contributions by Woodbury’s citizens the “Vision for the Future, 2021 Town Plan of Woodbury VT” would not have attained this award.  Congratulations to all!
