Summary

Peaine Township’s June 3, 1991 meeting funded Blue Trail work, discussed parking, dust control, campfires, rezoning, and transfer-station equipment, and appointed Bill Markey to the Library Board.

Evidence limits

These are newspaper minutes, not signed minutes, grant files, zoning records, or completed trail and parking projects.

Open questions

  • Did the $500 Peaine Township contribution combine with a DNR grant, and what specific Blue Trail work did it fund?
  • What decision, if any, followed the meeting’s Iron Ore Bay campfire discussion?
  • Were the parking-lot bids discussed at this meeting awarded, and to whom?

If you can answer any of these, or correct anything above, the archive wants to hear it — see Corrections.
