Perhaps if you really knew what was going on you would feel differently. This does not begin and end with just this one item. Maybe if you educated yourself in what is really going on you would be much smarter and understand. Quit chiming in until you know all the facts. If you want them posted here...

It has been reported that the open meetings act has been violated as a result of this action. Apparently the offering of the job was done prior to the meeting. As Mr. Taylor has said, they have done it again and again. [removed] this is too important a job to the community? A matter of public record...

Nice defense of your husband but there is more to it than that including proper public protocol. We all know the history here and that cannot be ignored. [removed] Things cannot be done "the way we always did it." We need to get back on proper and ethical ground! I understood Mr. Collins w...

Mr. Edgar is basically correct that there are rules in play but so are you Mr. Bolton. Sometimes it depends on who it is and sometimes the "enforcers" do take things a little too far. Over the years some members who become enforcers decide the island has grown enough and they use the coven...

Mr. Naranjo, You are very correct in your right to defend your property and to the point on certain of these people using heavy handed tactics because they assume they are the big wheel. The association leadership seems more interested in less development of association lots than anything and to ply...

Someone did not do their job! Someone should resign and put some competent people in there!

I searched for this and brought it back to the top to make a point. 72,000 views and yet no responses or responsible answers from our community leaders! I watched a video of the town board meeting held last week where the lady who owns the so called "newspaper" accepted some "found&qu...

Mr. Taylor, are you telling us the same people responsible for not making the township clerk and treasurer do their jobs accurately. The same person who botched the record keeping and helped the township clerk and treasurer create records to falsify sewer records is being paid for this while we are ...

The rest of the township board needs to step up here and be sure they play by the rules at least until they walk away in disgrace! What a terrible thing for such a small community!

That ladies conscience got to her along with responsible board members who pointed out the facts! We don't seem to have that luxury. She has already ensured herself a spot in local history, that's for sure! I heard she threw a temper tantrum at the town hall the other night. Might as well add that t...

Mr. Taylor, I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and a hopeful Happy New Year! The shenanigans of these people and the incredible cost to the taxpayers of not just St. James Township but Beaver Island as a whole, the morale of people and the lack of proper rules and procedures needs to stop. I know ...

The videos of their meetings show their lack of integrity and respect for the citizens and taxpayers. They use their positions for themselves and to get after people! The most recent meeting was so obvious. Why doesn't the state or the prosecutor come in and put a stop to this charade?

Donegal Bay Road

There has been a lot of discussion of Donegal Bay Road and the improvements thereto in recent months. I drove it today and if it has been repaired I do not see the improvement? Was this project put in front of the taxpayer and vetted? Who worked on this and were they qualified? Nothing has been done...

On this day of immense reflection where people lost their lives in a tragic shipping accident it makes you think of the opportunity won and lost in a lifetime. It makes you think of what could have been. It makes you think of how we all are victims and those responsible have not taken responsibility...

Actually I believe he was referring to existing law on the rule of publication so the public is made aware. His selfish personal interests couldn't touch those of the people under discussion.
