Summary

In December 2005, St. James and Peaine townships approved accepting a $150,000 Airport Improvement Program grant toward a new airport plow truck. The boards also supported a $38,000 Grand Traverse Band grant request for restoration and installation of the Community House’s Dockside tin facade.

Evidence limits

The report records approvals and proposed funding, not delivery of the truck, grant awards, or completed restoration.
