Support for White

Support for White

To the editor: I am endorsing Jim White for County Commissioner for his ability to lead people, manage money and pay attention to detail when it comes to being responsible for other people’s money and resources. He has proven this in pursuit of answers about issues such as the Green Energy grant, Broad Band, and the low moral in our government offices. 09/25/2024 04:23 PM

To the editor: I strongly urge the Leelanau Board of Commissioners to move forward in adopting solar energy at the Leelanau County Government Center - especially if the county has the good fortune of receiving a state grant to cover the cost. My husband and I installed solar panels 5 years ago at our home in Glen Arbor Township and are extremely happy with their performance. 09/25/2024 04:23 PM
