To the editor: Rick Robbins—the architect of the disastrous Finance Department separation—has cost taxpayers over $800,000. Robbins, who was ousted two years ago, is running again as a Democrat, and if he returns, it will be a disaster for Leelanau County taxpayers. 10/23/2024 06:26 PM

‘Time for a change’

To the editor: It was the Republicans who instigated the County Reorganization that has cost us $800,000+. Led by Chairman Bunek, without notice or discussion, the County Commission in 2021 stripped duties performed successfully for 20 years by our County Clerk. 10/23/2024 06:26 PM
Less is more
Less is more
To the editor: “Government” was instituted (for Americans) to collectively do certain things that individuals cannot do themselves. Not manage play groups ($900,000), which mothers can easily organize through social media. 10/23/2024 06:26 PM
