Passing notes
To the editor: Passing notes about the date of a follow up interview and when an ongoing presentation started? Congratulations Enterprise on your big scoop right before the election. After all, It would be dangerous to reelect a commissioner so misguided as to ask the clerk for the date of a future meeting. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

To the editor: It seems near that most of the residents of Leelanau County opposed the extension of the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail within the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The 4.2-mil extension will costs $15.5 million — that is $700 per foot! Remember the 1970s? The NPS has a history of pressing on with initiatives regardless of what people thing, Chuck Bond Maple City. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

To the editor: Thank you, voters, for renewing the Suttons Bay Bingham District Library’s operating millage! The library millage passed with 74% approval from the library’s service areas of Suttons Bay Village and Township and Bingham Township. We’ve received your support; now we’d like your opinion. 08/21/2024 09:15 PM

To the editor: I’m grateful to Joe Biden and believe history will judge him as an exceptional president. But I’m glad he stepped aside. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

To the editor: For many years those who boat down the Leland river ave noticed that some areas need to be dredged. Thanks to the generous donations of the Thomas Reahard Family and Easling Construction a study is underway to help develop a comprehensive program and budget to accomplish this goal. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

To the editor: Trump claims Kamala Harris is a “border czar,” and that problems at the border are therefore her fault. Baloney. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
Support for trail extension
Support for trail extension
To the editor: We are big fans of TART since living near the Leelanau Trail and watching it transform the community around it in a positive way! We now live in Cleveland Township and when using the Heritage Trail, it’s wonderful to see people experiencing the beauty and ecodiversity of the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore in such a unique and healthy way! As advocates for people with disabilities, we also love that the SBHT trail provides an accessible and truly immersive way to experience the National Lakeshore for people with mobility challenges. The process of creating this next section has been nothing but respectful of the community- using input from a series of public Cleveland Township meetings held in 2018 to inform the route. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

To the editor: Some reasons I am voting for Trump. 1.) I liked two dollar per gallon gasoline, affordable groceries, and lower loan interest rates. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

‘On True Greatness’
To the editor: A recent (unsolicited) Trump MAGA mailing got me to thinking, what is greatness? Foremost seems to be “otherness.” Great people don’t have to tell anyone they’re great. Being “great” isn’t a goal in their life. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

To the editor: As a former TART Trails and Leelanau Conservancy board member, I celebrate the connections between human recreation and exploration and responsible well planned access to cherished, conserved places. The Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail, winding throughout the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore exemplifies this intersection beautifully. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
