Summary

The October 1984 Beaver Beacon reports St. James Township decisions on 1984 millage, Iron Ore property financing, completion of the McDonough Ball Park parcel, facility fuel oil, assessing, deputy coverage, and public amenities.

Evidence limits

The newspaper preserves selected minutes and motions. It does not independently establish title, payment, contract completion, or later implementation.

It is a newspaper transcription of minutes, not a complete municipal, title, procurement, or personnel file. The holding institution's portal restricts automated access; the archive holds a copy of this issue and can provide it on request.
