"Out of the amounts for Financial Assistance for Cultural and Artistic Affairs, $50,000 the second year shall be provided to the Virginia War Museum Foundation to support the restoration of Causey's Mill."


Explanation
(This amendment provides $50,000 from the general fund the second year to support the restoration of the interior of the Causey's Mill building. This is an 1866 tide mill sited on Lake Maury, formerly Water's Creek. A mill has operated at this location since the 17th century and at one time was referred to as Langhorne's Mill. Currently, the mill's exterior is undergoing repairs. A $50,000 grant will enable the mill's interior to be fully restored.)
