Not fiscally responsible

Not fiscally responsible

To the editor: The old saying “Actions speak louder than words” perfectly describes Lois Bahle. Her recent Enterprise ad claims she is “fiscally responsible” and supports “housing sustainability collaboration.” During her short commissioner term in 2022, she voted to raise property taxes. 09/18/2024 05:51 PM

Heaven’s gain

Heaven’s gain

To the Family of John Popa: My heart goes out to the Popa family with the sudden loss of John. Alan Campbell’s article eloquently described how John touched and molded organizations in Leelanau County for the benefit of all its citizens. 09/18/2024 05:51 PM

Support Ross

To the editor: I met Kama Ross almost 10 years ago. Over the last decade, I’ve spent time with her as a friend (she’s there for you), forester, volunteer, public servant, and advocate for peaceful, thoughtful democratic engagement. 09/18/2024 05:51 PM

Support for Conley

Support for Conley

To the editor: Leelanau Township expects its leaders to focus on the economic and social good of our families, farmers and businesses. We expect them to listen carefully, conduct business in an open and constructive manner, and tell us the complete truth. 09/18/2024 05:51 PM

‘Accountable’

‘Accountable’

‘Trail to Nowhere’

‘Trail to Nowhere’

To the editor: If the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail is extended to County Road 651 as planned, it will truly be a trail to nowhere. The already overcrowded Good Harbor Beach has inadequate parking. 09/18/2024 05:51 PM

Out of commission

Out of commission

To the editor: Over the past two years, the Leelanau County Board of Commissioners has made some baffling decisions. They paid a consultant to survey employees they don’t even manage — like deputies, clerk assistants and extension workers — who are under the control of other officials or unions. 09/18/2024 05:51 PM
