Will there be a New Boat?

On the last day of June two representatives of the Corradino Group arrived on Beaver and held a public meeting to gauge the Island’s transportation needs– under a contract with BITA which is funded by MDOT. Ideas swirled out from the 32 who attended.

At this point, all that’s going on is an open-minded gathering of ideas.
