Suttons Bay bond election draws near, May 7
Voters in the Suttons Bay Public School district will head to the polls on May 7 for a special election to vote on an $18.34 million bond proposal for facility improvements. Suttons Bay School Superintendent Casey Petz said the bond proposal passage would allow the district to address issues related to “campus safety and security, energy utilization and management, replacement of boilers, and removal and replacement of infrastructure that is outdated, reached the end of its expected service life, or in a state of disrepair.” “Specifically, the bond proposal seeks approval to tear down and replace the existing middle school gym on the north end of campus,” Petz said in an email. 04/24/2024 04:43 PM

To the editor: Our Federal Representative Jack Bergman appears to many of his constituents to be appeasing Russia’s objectives in the Ukraine by voting against the Ukraine aid package. I hope the voters of the First Michigan Congressional District will remember this in November. 04/24/2024 04:43 PM
Waste not
Waste not
