To the editor:
I’m often asked what I see as the top issues facing Leland Township over the next four years.
While there are many — park improvements (including the DNR launch), rebuilding the library seawall, prioritizing road repairs — the list starts with mending the divisions that have widened the last several years, and earning back the community’s confidence in our local government. That happens through honesty, accountability and open communication.
Unfortunately, the township’s leadership has become stale, ineffective and divisive, and, in return, distrusted. As supervisor, I’ll work to bring all residents back to the table to accomplish sensible, common-ground results.
