Responsible Republicans?

Responsible Republicans?

To the editor: The Enterprise reported that the county spent $600,000 to create two new departments. On May 11, 2021 Republicans , with 20 minutes of discussion, approved creating these departments with no stated justification orcostestimate. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Less politics …

Less politics …

To the editor: Empire Village residents deserve experienced council members who understand government operations and finances. Knowledgeable people responsible for spending our tax dollars. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Republicans responsible

Republicans responsible

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. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Support Bunek

To the editor: I’ve lived in Bingham Township since 1979 and have seen many politicians come and go. Will Bunek, in my opinion has been one of the very best to ever serve in our County government. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Support Campbell

Support Campbell

To the editor: I support the leadership of Steve Yoder District 7, & Alan Campbell District 5, for County Commissioner. A commissioner should have experience owning and running their own business, managing employees, making a payroll and working within a budget. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

To the editor: I would like to congratulate Patrice Korson & Mary Lingaur Co-chairs of the Lake Leelanau Street Fair Fall Festival. The new community did such a great job. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

No flags or hats

No flags or hats

To the editor: Our county commissioners have been focusing on our welfare weekly. Without flags or hats. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Vote for Dems

To the editor: Rick Robbins, Scott Perry, Lois Bahle, Ty Wessell, Kama Ross, Gwenne Allgaier, Tim Dowd: That’s the slate. Choice, freedom, democracy, decency: That’s the platform. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Vote for Ross

To the editor: I strongly encourage District 5 Commissioner constituents to vote for Kama Ross. Kama is a dedicated, responsive commissioner who listens respectfully to her constituents and works hard to represent their interests and concerns. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Together … a difference

Together … a difference

To the editor: At a recent County Commissioner forum, I heard: Lois Bahle who had clearly done her homework, presenting compelling reasons for local government to support childcare and affordable housing, clean water, and sustainable energy use — and practical solutions for doing so. Besides her record of leadership, most impressive is her commitment to working in partnership with others. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

‘Misguided decision’

‘Misguided decision’

To the editor: Republican Commission Chair Bunek led the “misguided decision” to create structural financial taxpayer burdens by adding Finance and HR departments without rationale or an implementation plan, undermining the Republican Clerk’s office (5/21/21); Democrats voted no. Most current Republican and all Democrat Commissioners are working to fix this mess. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM

Confounds common sense

Confounds common sense

To the editor: Thank you Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians and Cleveland Township for opposing Segment 9’s environmentally destructive and outrageously expensive trail. It confounds common sense there is plan to fragment a globally rare wetland, remove 7,300 trees and decimate massive glacial dunes. 10/16/2024 08:25 PM
