LEELANAU HISTORY
LEELANAU HISTORY
Computer systems in the Leelanau County Government Center virtually “exploded” Sunday when a computer virus that officials were certain had been removed last month suddenly launched a second wave of attacks. County employees and department heads were still reeling from the online assault this week. Specially trained troopers from the Michigan State Police Cyber Command Center are investigating. A state-sponsored team of information technology (IT) experts was being deployed this week from Lansing to Leelanau County to assist. *** The book has been closed on a lingering chapter in the story of the Village of Empire. The Village Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to approve a $25,000 settlement in a 2018 lawsuit filed by Traci Cruz, former village clerk. The action came after a nearly 45-minute closed door session. Trustee Maggie Bacon came forward with a motion when the council returned to open session. 01/24/2024 04:23 PM
