There may a taste of things to come in Leelanau County in the controversy unfolding to our south at Crystal Lake over a boat launch for public use. According to this Record-Eagle story, some local residents are gearing up to oppose a boat launch proposed by the DNR, while others are preparing to support it.

It's a story that echoes the current confusion over "keyholing" in Leland township, and in our opinion it's an issue we will be seeing more of in the years to come.
