Letters

Food waste

To the editor: My last letter was about waste as the archvillain causing our environmental symptoms: extreme/temperatures, hurricanes, food shortages, tornado and health risks etc. We are facing global energy transition. 05/29/2024 05:59 PM

Pattern of behavior

Pattern of behavior

To the editor: Having attended the May 13 Leland Township board meeting, I was disappointed to read the Enterprise’s reporting on the DNR dock removal in Leland. Per the story, a DNR proposal to swap park land, detailed in a letter addressed to Supervisor Och, “was not discussed by the Township Board.” The reason, unreported, is the board didn’t know the offer existed. 05/29/2024 05:59 PM

A conflict

To the editor: An investigation is underway to determine whether the chair of a county energy task force violated the county conflict policy when he helped write and advocated for a grant that would pay him. Perhaps the chair, who is in the energy business, should not lead a county body in the same line of work. 05/29/2024 05:59 PM

With thanks

Thank you to author William Kent Krueger, interviewer Aaron Stander, Northport Public School and the individuals who provided technical assistance at this venue, bookseller Pamela Grath from Dog Ears Books, each library’s Friends of the Library group and the Mid-Michigan Library League. 05/29/2024 05:59 PM

Patriotic community

Patriotic community

To the editor: Why is our VFW Post 7731 Memorial Day program a success? All of our members work hard to host this important event. We have good advanced advertising and we have good newspaper coverage. 05/29/2024 05:59 PM

Church and state

Church and state

To the editor: It was written in a recent paper that we need to keep religion out of the White House citing Thomas Jefferson’s words “separation of church and state” as justification. But a history lesson is needed. 05/22/2024 04:45 PM

What we have…need

What we have…need

To the editor: Following the local news & other sources, I’ve come to a conclusion; we’re in BIG trouble in our county government. Some of our elected officials aren’t performing their positions as stated. 05/22/2024 04:45 PM

Thank you

To the editor: The family of Elinor Swenson would like to thank many people during her illness and passing. Thank you to Munson Hospital, Doctors and Nurses, Martinson Funeral Home, First Lutheran Church Ladies Aide Society and relatives and friends who sent memorials, flowers, cards and food. 05/22/2024 04:45 PM

Thank you

To the editor: We wish to express our gratitude on behalf of our entire family at the passing of our brother, uncle, neighbor and friend. Your kind expressions of sympathy, words of comfort, mass cards, Spiritual bouquets, flowers and the large spray of flowers were kindly appreciated. 05/22/2024 04:45 PM

‘Topsy-turvy’ world

‘Topsy-turvy’ world

To the editor: Wild fiat money creation! Reckless deficit spending! 19% inflation! Eroded quality of life! Wide open borders! Laken Riley! Crime! Fentanyl! $4 gas! Food up 30%! Energy up 32%! Lawlessness! Campus anarchy! War! Death! Destruction! Stalinist show trials! Election interference! Interest rates 8%! Rogue DOJ and courts! Hypocrisy and double standards! Unequal justice! Allies betrayed! Civil society collapsing! Afghanistan! Did I miss anything? Had enough of this upside-down, topsy-turvy Mad Max world? Me, too. So on November 5 I’m voting Republican right down the ballot. 05/15/2024 05:44 PM

Keeping Leelanau beautiful

Keeping Leelanau beautiful

To the editor: I appreciated the editorial on Earth Day that highlighted work of the Leelanau Conservancy. There is another agency that receives far less attention, yet is also busy conserving the resources of Leelanau county. 05/15/2024 05:44 PM

Support the children

Support the children

To the editor: The growth & strength of the Suttons Bay Public School’s Music & Art Programs this year is nothing short of AMAZING! Hip, hip, hooray to the passionate teachers that have led the way… Dante Billeci, Elizabeth Richards, & Mary Hall. You have ignited in the children more than just a desire to learn but a sense of community & belonging. 05/15/2024 05:44 PM
