Explanation
(This amendment provides $920,000 in fiscal year 2007 from the general fund to the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley for the construction of a new entrance, upgrades to the Museum security package, upgrades to as-built systems such as storm drain repair, and corrections to exhibition panels. Additional needs include a Mila Wall system for the Changing Exhibition Gallery, lockers, visitor benches, expansion of the staff parking lot, finishing of the outdoor Tea Room space and completion of the catering kitchen. The Museum of the Shenandoah Valley tells the story of the art, history, and culture of the great valley for which it is named. When it opened in April 2005, the museum joined with the Glen Burnie Historic House and Gardens to form a regional history complex of national stature.)
