Protecting our most dangerous border

Homeland security wants to renovate a barely used border crossing at a cost of $8M and want's a 4.9 acre piece of land from a neighboring farm as part of the renovation.
Neighbors and a former border guard agree that the crossing is so little used that it would be better to close it than spend millions on it.
They are only offering $39K for the land and the farmer claims that the reduction in he ability to grow grain for his cattle will cause the already struggling farm to go under.
The government is threatening to sieze the land through imminent domain.
So, where is this important border crossing?
Somewhere in Texas, Arizona, or California?
No!
It is in Vermont.
