    Leelanau Conservancy Conserving the Land, Water and Scenic Character of Leelanau County 2013 Annual Report and Spring 2014 Newsletter Leelanau Forever: Protecting This Place We Love n late November, the Leelanau Enterprise featured our IClay Cliffs Natural Area project on its front page. The Conservancy, along with Leland Township, had just finalized the purchase of this unbelievably beautiful 104-acre property, with 1,700 feet of frontage on both Lake Michigan and Lake Leelanau. We loved the Enterprise story headline which shouted, “Ours!” along with a beautiful photo. When you think about it, the word “Ours” pretty much sums up all of the natural areas we have preserved for public enjoyment. Houdek Dunes, DeYoung, Chippewa Run, the Lake Leelanau Narrows, Swanson Preserve, Crystal River just to name a few…and now, Clay Cliffs. These special places are all collectively “Ours.” They are ours to enjoy, to find wonder in, to explore with our families. In our 25-year history, we have also protected thousands of acres of private lands and working farms with a legal tool called a conservation easement. We can’t call these places “Ours,” but there’s no denying that everyone who loves Leelanau is the beneficiary when important farm and natural lands are protected. Private protected lands give us some of the most stunning roadside views, they protect our water quality and wildlife, and they produce the local foods we all adore. Finalizing the Clay Cliffs purchase was just a part of a record-breaking 25th Anniversary year. In 2013 we protected an impressive 912 acres, bringing our 25-year total to nearly 11,000 acres.

CDFA has worked closely with these offices stress the importance of recapitalizing state programs that had expired in 2017 to bring immediate support to small businesses hurt by the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. The State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI) was a federal financing program that delivered flexible, affordable capital to small businesses around the country. The expiration of the SSBCI Program in 2017 left a void in the marketplace for affordable small business loans. S. 258 would provide $10 billion in funds to a reauthorized SSBCI Program would provide immediate access to capital for small businesses that desperately need it. The programs created by states under the original SSBCI are still in operation and would be ready to immediately deploy capital to businesses in need. “CDFA is grateful to Senator Peters and Senator Stabenow for their leadership on the State Small Business Credit Initiative,” said Toby Rittner, CDFA's President & CEO.

  • 2021-2022 Livingston County Directory
    2021-2022 LIVINGSTON COUNTY DIRECTORY of National, State, County, Township, City and Village Officials Compiled by: Elizabeth Hundley Livingston County Clerk Howell, Michigan The Courthouse you see today is the second courthouse to occupy this site. The first building was a brick Greek Revival structure in 1847. This courthouse was torn down to make room for the present Courthouse, which was built in 1889. The Richardson Romanesque building was designed by Albert E. French, a Detroit architect. The site was deeded to Livingston County with the stipulation that it be used for county court purposes. Located on Grand River Avenue in downtown Howell, the Courthouse stands stately and proud, with its clock tower visible for miles. Its main structural components are brick, Ohio blue stone, and slate. These materials were selected for their durability. William Kessler and Associates were commissioned in 1975 to update the Courthouse, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Pages. The Victorian atmosphere is enhanced by the restoration of the oak woodwork, braze hardware, and marble floors. It is further complemented by the restoration and recreation of the original colors and decorative paintings. The preservation of the Courthouse offers the opportunity to save an important landmark for future generations to enjoy. 1 To the Citizens of Livingston County: This directory is published to serve as a resource guide to assist you in communicating with government offices and agencies, as well as elected and appointed officials at the local, county, state, and federal levels.
