Beaver Island Michigan

Hello, Islanders,
I have a tract of land that will need some timber harvested within the next year or so.
Does anyone know of a cutter that is responsible, reliable,etc. ?
Thanks in advance.

Can't seem to get my survey guys to come to the island. Go figure, I can't get enough time on the island .
Anyone know a reasonable, trustworthy surveyor I could use ?
Thanks.

Let me add a little more info.......Harbor Springs has kayakers and small boats along the course , along with large balloons for the swimmers to sight upon.

When someone dials 911 on the island, where does that call go ? Does it go to a central dispatch in Charlevoix ? Here is why I ask. To understand the needs of the BI residents, one would have to analyze the calls and call volume, decide what skills are needed and make a decision as to what the islan...

Hey Everyone, What is the Fire Dept's involvement in EMS responses ? All the FD's I have been involved with have evolved into an emergency response agency. Augmenting , if not outright replacing the EMS providers. The FD's that have the most success have First reponders,EMT's and Paramedics. These a...
