NPS doesn’t care

NPS doesn’t care

To the editor: It seems near that most of the residents of Leelanau County opposed the extension of the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail within the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The 4.2-mil extension will costs $15.5 million — that is $700 per foot! Remember the 1970s? The NPS has a history of pressing on with initiatives regardless of what people thing, Chuck Bond Maple City. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Passing notes

To the editor: Passing notes about the date of a follow up interview and when an ongoing presentation started? Congratulations Enterprise on your big scoop right before the election. After all, It would be dangerous to reelect a commissioner so misguided as to ask the clerk for the date of a future meeting. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Step up to help veterans with hall

She’s a tired, old building. She needs help. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Watching for impact of minimum wage law

Watching for impact of minimum wage law

A new state law which will go in effect in February sounds good at first glance. However, it will be interesting to see it how everything shakes out on the Leelanau Peninsula. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Salute!

To the editor: A Message to My Fellow Veterans: A man has referred to row after row of white granite crosses as a place for ”losers and “suckers”! That man also attacked a gold star family for political reasons. He then referred to a veteran as a coward because he was a prisoner of war. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Ugliness forever

Ugliness forever

To the editor: Dear friends and neighbors: Good news! We may never have to endure another presidential campaign. The bad news is, that would be because Trump made himself president for life! Do we want to listen to Trump and Vance’s anger and ugliness forever? Do we want a president who is woefully misinformed? (You don’t think he’s lying, do you?!) Do we want the free press abolished? Do we want a president who, when he’s dealing with foreign leaders, is so weak and ineffectual that, according to him, he is picked on and bullied? Doesn’t sound very pleasant. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Price gouging?

To the editor: Kamala Harris states that food providers are “price gouging” and she will punish them with some new (bad) laws to control pricing. In fact, grocers earn an after-tax profit of less than 2 cents on every dollar earned, a pretty thin profit margin. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Sanctimonious sign

Sanctimonious sign

To the editor: The mound of signs entering Lake Leelanau is unsightly and unwelcoming. This must be private property and doubt half the people nor businesses appreciate the view. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Strong feelings

Strong feelings

To the editor: I would like to voice my feelings about Segment 9 of the Sleeping Bear Dunes Heritage Trail. I have had the privilege of living in Leelanau County for over 20 years and my husband and I have enjoyed the trails and initially we were looking forward to the expansion but this particular segment at this particular time in environmental history is wrong. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

McMillan support

McMillan support

To the editor: The election for Leelanau Township supervisor includes incumbent candidate Mike McMillan. Mike was appointed as the third person to hold the office during the present term. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Project 2025 … weird

Project 2025 … weird

To the editor: The 920-page Project 2025 document, with introduction by J.D. Vance, is a dangerous, far right, anti-democratic playbook. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

Transgenderism

To the editor: Transgenderism is a political ideology to destabilize society, tear apart families, exploit and confuse vulnerable children, and put men in women’s restrooms. There’s a reason you can’t vote or drink until legal age. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM
