Summary

The February 1985 Beaver Beacon published a table explaining how the 1984 Beaver Island, St. James, and Peaine tax levies were distributed among schools, townships, fire, airport, landfill, bond, and Iron Ore Bay purposes.

Evidence limits

The table is preserved as a newspaper-published report and is not treated as an audited municipal financial statement.
