Evidence limits
This record documents a political argument and local reaction. It does not establish the millage’s legal terms, whether Kings Highway was promised, how funds would have been allocated, or the vote’s outcome.
Sources
- The post endorses a Charlevoix Courier letter by Steve West about a proposed road millage, says Kings Highway was only a promise, and argues that St. James Township would receive no return. It preserves local advocacy and perception, not the millage text, county allocation formula, project commitment, or election result.forum · www.beaverislandforum.com · 01 · t001307
