Summary

On September 5, 2023, the St. James Township Planning Commission approved the Beaver Island Master Plan and Future Land Use Map, following the July 7 public hearing, and submitted the draft Plan to the St. James Township Board for approval. The signed resolution records a 5–0 roll-call vote, with two members absent.

Evidence and limits

This is a Planning Commission approval and referral. The signed record does not contain a subsequent Township Board action, an effective zoning amendment, capital appropriation, permit, or evidence that any Plan recommendation was implemented. It also does not make the Plan a parcel-specific land-use determination.
