"I had always heard that this lease for Harbor View was for only the first 20 years, not 25, but that's window dressing. The fact is, this whole lease of a DNR/State owned and financed marina was the first of it's nature ever tried, no…"

2018 could be Ludington Mayor Candidate Steve Miller's year as he seems the prohibitive favorite to claim the top spot on November 6 and lead the city for the next 4 or more years. He definitely…Continue

jfc123 replied to XLFD's discussion Harbor View Marina Renters Scram Early, State Asks City to Take Over"This is EXACTLY why the city turned their back on the trouble around the Bayou and spent the money elsewhere! What is funny/odd is that the 2 main culprits, Shay and Krauch packed up and left town! If Schuette had the public in mind these guys may…"
XLFD posted a discussionHarbor View Marina Renters Scram Early, State Asks City to Take Over
Be prepared to subsidize another marina. Around 60 years ago, private marinas sprung up in Ludington's harbor, nestled or near the Pere Marquette Lake Bayou. The success of these ventures led to the city considering it's own…See More
XLFD replied to XLFD's discussion Steve Miller's First Public Scandal"Yet, I think Bill Dustman doesn't have the best skill set for being mayor, if that makes sense. I think he would be more effective as a councilor. Mayor Holman declared she wouldn't seek another term as mayor after candidates…"
XLFD posted a discussionFirst They Came for the Tree Fines...
At the Ludington City Council meeting on June 13, 2016, the minutes reflect that the city had the first reading of an ordinance that would create a Tree Advisory Board to 'protect trees' and 'establish an urban forestry program'. The minutes also reflect that I made a comment warning anybody who was listening that the City…See More
AQUAMAN replied to XLFD's discussion Steve Miller's First Public Scandal"Very well thought out and said X, you hit the nail again and thanks for the heads up on the Mayoral candidates. The only problem is, will the voters see all this before voting?"
XLFD replied to XLFD's discussion Steve Miller's First Public Scandal"The choice is clear between both candidates for mayor.
One is unapologetically conservative, the other is evasive about his core beliefs (which are decidedly progressive if you review his posts over the years)
One has no problem talking about…"
stump replied to XLFD's discussion Lawmen Breaking the Law to Advocate Against Lawful Pot"As stated in another post, people will travel to get it. Back 55 years ago my teen friends smoked the weed, I never did smoke anything, I drank beer. Where have I heard that before? Where they got it? don't know, never wanted to know.…"
AQUAMAN replied to XLFD's discussion Steve Miller's First Public Scandal"Dustman isn't running like a real candidate, he's running in the DARK, no signage, no nothing. If he is really serious, he needs to do his homework, now, or never!"
Freedom Seeker replied to XLFD's discussion Steve Miller's First Public Scandal"WOW! Unbelievable! Mant thoughts come to mind. First, thanks for the excellent research, X. Secondly, I pray for the future of the city if Miller is elected Mayor with this example of lack of ethics. And former mayor…"
XLFD posted a discussionSteve Miller's First Public Scandal
2018 could be Ludington Mayor Candidate Steve Miller's year as he seems the prohibitive favorite to claim the top spot on November 6 and lead the city for the next 4 or more years. He definitely started off the year on a successful note in his career as WMOM's sale and marketing director, scoring a lucrative deal valued over $5000 for the soon-to-be-declared Michigan radio station of the year.…See More
shinblind replied to XLFD's discussion Lawmen Breaking the Law to Advocate Against Lawful Pot"Maybe the Badger can offer ''Spark One Up'' cruises this summer where they will take a bunch of Cheesers into Michigan waters to indulge while being legal. The snack concessions alone should make this a profitable venture."
XLFD replied to XLFD's discussion Lawmen Breaking the Law to Advocate Against Lawful Pot"Aquaman, your conflicts are my conflicts with this ordinance. I would feel safe to vote yes for an initiative that would further protect the card-carrying users of medical marijuana from the 'justice system' and their perversion of…"
AQUAMAN replied to XLFD's discussion Lawmen Breaking the Law to Advocate Against Lawful Pot"I'd still like to take this opportunity to thank the posts of JDJ, Shinblind, and X for useful opinions that also weigh high (pun) on this subject of now, quite differing from the 60's-70's."
AQUAMAN replied to XLFD's discussion Lawmen Breaking the Law to Advocate Against Lawful Pot"Wow!!!!! This is an extremely difficult thread to make posts to: really! I'm kinda split on the whole current situation because of all the changes Mike Murphy made clear with stats. and new updated facts, plus the trailer of the movie was also…"
XLFD replied to XLFD's discussion Lawmen Breaking the Law to Advocate Against Lawful Pot"Good points, shinblind, and I would point out that Ludington is effectively a 'border city' because of the SS Badger and any marijuana business in Ludington or nearby could really see a lot of business coming in from the Cheese…"

XLFD said… Louise, in the upper right corner of the main page you will see your name and an "inbox (1 new)" link under it. Click on that and you'll see a message from me. Click on that, and then reply in that same space. This will be private messaging between you and me. I will use my resources to try and verify your claims; our sheriff's office is remarkably cloaked in secrecy (more so than the COL) since KIm Cole assumed the position of sheriff.

- I’m not sure how to message you, other than this way...sorry not good with computers. I have no evidence or proof. I’m sorry I wish I knew how to verify the claims all I can tell you is the names of the officers I heard about

- Ive heard that a local corrections officer got fired for sleeping with an inmate while on duty and another got fired for falsifying his time card, also A deputy Sargent recently got demoted. What is going on at our local sheriffs office and why is none of this being reported?

- I'm curious about something and have not been able to find an answer. I'm hoping you may know the answer. Is it 'usual practice' to use a person's full name in the body of an op-ed?

Willy said… - What I don't understand about the shop with a cop program is where you come up with the $900 plus amount that is not accounted for. Also why is the same $250 card number on two separate receipts? I'm not very good with math and bookkeeping so I'm curious.

Perhaps time to “treat” them to a recall election. Oops, no ---------- way past time.
