Re: And so it goes.......

Kathe You are very full of knowledge about the Island. Since you have so many ideas about everything I am going to suggest that you join any of the many, many, many, boards and committees that people are really working on. You can Skype in or call in even this day and age. I would also make the sugg...

Re: FOR A CONSOLIDATED BEAVER ISLAND TOWNSHIP

John, A question without proper research is what was wrong. It just threw garbage out in the universe and you are absolutely right it did hit a nerve. I defend people that haven't done wrong. Example: Just like I stand by your side with the horse barn and business that you had to shut down. Sad loss...

Re: New Survey on Consolidation

Bill, I appreciate the professional reply that you have just given. That is more what I expect from you (as I know you to be) and our representatives on both sides to have a thought out response. However, my feelings represent the forum and what I feel has been coming from the Save Peaine and others...

Re: AGAINST A CONSOLIDATED BEAVER ISLAND TOWNSHIP

Andy, I thought highly of Bill and of you but you are really pulling him and you to the gutter! You are representing how our township is runs as a person who has so much inside information! You have at least half an Island that sees how you hate their opinion and ideas! We get it! There is not a sta...

Re: New Survey on Consolidation

Andy, From the direct post above the one I replied after!!!!! No twisting whatsoever! I will never stop defending those that do not have a vote. NEVER and you shouldn't either. I also feel strongly that my township (against consolidation team) have not given due diligence to all of its taxpayers pro...

Re: New Survey on Consolidation

I feel as a Peaine resident that during this consolidation question that some of our township officials and others are not doing the taxpayers justice by looking at it from all taxpayers perspective. This issue is also far greater than those who live here. The duty of those officers is to see that t...

Re: FOR A CONSOLIDATED BEAVER ISLAND TOWNSHIP

Please take this survey and then look at the results. Might surprise you what people have to say from what looks like an even amount of voters from each township. People are speaking up for what they want. Are we listening? https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/7S9MFSY https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/...

Re: Fundraiser for Steve Connaghan

Island friend in need should move to the top of everyone's priority list. Lend a hand they are not asking much. We should be able to help them reach their goal in quick fashion.

Re: FOR A CONSOLIDATED BEAVER ISLAND TOWNSHIP

If we are one Island supporting all of Beaver Island what balance is necessary? Watch dogs from each side are necessary? We can't look out for each other or the betterment of the Island? It shouldn't be necessary now! We all should have the same intentions for our entities and that is to run them ef...

Re: Peaine Township Vision for the Future

I don't want to switch the topic back and forth because what is Peaine's Vision for the future is a question that has been being asked for quite awhile. I would like to know what is being done and I have asked this probably too many times without an answer. What is being worked on or planned to be w...
