Delta County MI Board of Commissioners Meeting (7/15/2025): Airports, FOIA Requests, First Response Grants, etc.

There have been many interesting discussions and developments in the community, some of which are shaping up to be very positive. As the community continues to grow, it’s natural that new questions and challenges will arise.

Effective decision-making will depend on having leaders who share a common vision for the future. This shared vision often forms through public engagement and collaboration, which helps create a unified approach to addressing emerging issues.

I recently came across an article on team building and vision development—though it focused on small businesses, several ideas seemed relevant and insightful for broad context. Developing a Shared Vision 

Here are a few key activities and updates:

  • Updated Airport with New Carrier: The addition of a new airline carrier presents a great opportunity. If the carrier is looking to expand and sees potential in Escanaba, this could be a strong partnership and a way to increase regional visibility.

  • FOIA Request: An unresolved issue remains regarding a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. It seems the requester is still seeking information, and the matter may need further attention.

  • First Responder Grants: Securing grants for local first responders is crucial, especially as the area grows and sees more corporate investment. These funds help ensure that emergency services remain strong and well-equipped.
