I do not pay taxes on Beaver Island but my children and grandchildren pay aviation fuel taxes so thank you for leading the charge.

I can't read enough about what is happening with the airport and townships, I'm glad that now some people are paying attention. My appreciation to all who are willing to speak out for the rest. Rose

Beaver Island to Become One Township

What would have to be done for Beaver Island to become one township? I have not heard if this is still under consideration or not. Has anyone ever put a calculator and pencil to the question and estimated the financial savings for all taxpayers? It would be interesting if someone had a rough estimat...

Thank you for the information. It doesn't answer my question but may explain why St. James Township maintains an unlisted e-mail address. I will keep searching. Rose

Thank you for the information. Is the zoning administrator and assessor one positon or two? Is St. James Township, having fired Kevin White, now also looking for a new zoning administrator? If so, I believe this would mean that Beaver Island could have two assessors and two zoning administrators. Th...

I have some questions which may have already been resolved but thought it was worth listing them because others may have the same question. Is my understanding correct that Mr. White is currently the assessor for all of Beaver Island, meaning both townships? If St. James Township is firing him as th...

I'm confused, but then again at my age confusion could be listed on my address as the state in which I am usually found. I agree with the earlier reply, Mr. White's letter is very enlightening. If Mr. White reported to the township supervisor and made him aware of the assessment issue, to which he t...

Gee whiz, I have to look at the Forum more often. I just returned from cold Florida where I was visiting my sisters. They can talk to me all they want but Florida is not for me, nice to visit. Where to start? Thank you for the explanation on the two, actually three, townships which probably made sen...

Thank you for the information on the official St. James Township website. I did find it in my search but when I saw that there had been no updates for two and a half years I assumed it was no longer the official township website but guess I was wrong?????? I thought I was behind on my e-mail but not...

I thank you for the information and being a watchdog for your subscribers and the public. Video captures and conveys what minutes alone can not and more often than not how things are said is more revealing than what is said. I will be watching for this information in the future.

My time is being consumed by holiday planning and grandchildren right now but after the first of the year I will be sending St. James Township a written request. Any citizen can request public information from any body that operates under the Open Meetings Act. That body can charge a nominal fee for...
