Summary

At the St. James township report dated May 4, 1994, the Beaver Island road committee gave the Road Commission a list of repair needs. The list named Mrs. Redding’s Trail, Barney’s Lake Road, Hannigan Road, and Mike Boyle’s Turnaround, among other island routes, and said an engineer would meet with the committee on May 13.

The notice records a repair-planning action, not completed work. It does not identify the repairs performed, costs, engineering drawings, or the exact segment meant by Mike Boyle’s Turnaround.
