Re: FOR A CONSOLIDATED BEAVER ISLAND TOWNSHIP

Just want to clarify that the proposed figure of 1.6 mils for EMS in the consolidated township budget came from the Proposed Beaver Island Budget. See pages 6 and 7 on that thread. Unless there is some error in the calculation, 1.6 mils appears to more than cover anticipated expenditures.

I am very much in favor of Beaver Island being energy independent, but there are a lot of questions about fracking. The American Petroleum Institute marketing brochure claims that protective measures are in place and thatâ??s true. But fracking was exempted from the Safe Drinking Water Act under the...
