S-B School millage proposal set

Voters in the Suttons Bay Public School district will have the chance to choose once again if they want to vote for the operating millage renewal proposal this month during Michigan’s presidential primary. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

Chaney lauded

Caroline Chaney of Suttons Bay was named to the fall 2023 dean’s list in the School of Arts and Sciences at The Catholic University of America in Washington D.C.. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

The Old Art Building in Leland is looking to possibly expand its campus and secure access to a waterfront property just adjacent from its current location. The proposed acquisition at 204 Cedar Street, which is priced at $3,100,000 (includes additional closing costs and fees), is 1.14 acre...

OAB looks to expand, secure waterfront property

The Old Art Building (OAB) has an unexpected opportunity to secure access to a waterfront property just adjacent from its current location. While the organization is in its early information gathering stage to assess if the community supports the potential new project, Executive Director Sarah Mills said the chance to buy land so close to where they are now is rare and would support both their mission and long-term goals of the OAB. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

Civility is gone

Civility is gone

To the editor: I’ve come to admire the Brits’ ability to refer to the political other as the “Loyal Opposition.” In doing so it endows the “other” with valued recognition and respect. I’m sure at times all of us have been perceived as the opposition. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

MHA vacating space

MHA vacating space

To the editor: I am writing to correct an assumption about the status of The Maritime Heritage Alliance located on M22 in Greilickville. The plan to construct a Freshwater Research Center in this location will necessitate our vacating our present shop and storage facilities as they will be torn down. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

Take a breath

To the editor: I think we can all agree that when employers ensure a positive work culture for their employees, everyone benefits — both employees and those they serve. So, when a number of culture-related complaints from Leelanau County employees surfaced last year, I was glad to see our Board of Commissioners act — convening a three-commissioner personnel committee, chaired by Commissioner Kama Ross, to examine the county’s work environment. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

Non-violence and common sense

Non-violence and common sense

To the editor: It has been three years since the January 6, 2021 assault on the Capitol of the United States. As a fiscal conservative Republican, I believe people who planned and participated in this assault should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

Disappointing

To the editor: The headline article “Patriot group gets on agenda” (02/02/24) was misleading and disappointing. In my opinion it was written with a clear bias couched in “argumentum ad hominem.” This term usually is used to refer to a rhetorical strategy in which the writer unfavorably portrays a character, motive, or other attribute of the individual(s) making the argument, rather than addressing the argument itself. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

Do your job with ‘grace’

Do your job with ‘grace’

To the editor: Letters to the editor attacking personnel committee chair, commissioner Ross are meant to divert attention from the “toxic” label put on commissioner Lautner. The board of commissioners does not need “leadership training.” They desparately need a governing workshop. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

6 bankruptcies

To the editor: Facebook is always asking... What’s on my mind?...Well the state of our country and my puzzlement at who the GOP wants to be their choice for presidential candidacy... 02/07/2024 05:13 PM

Hardly a landslide

Hardly a landslide

To the editor: The primary season is likely to get busier before it gets better, but I would like to point out that during the Iowa caucus only 15% of the state’s registered Republicans turned out, and of them only 51% caucused for Trump* (CBS, 1/16/24). Hardly a landslide. 02/07/2024 05:13 PM
