New Buffalo Shoreline Alliance - Update 2.8.19
Village poll: Opt Out 133 / Opt In 64
Your Village Council has decided to remain Neutral on a position until more "Modeling" is presented on the project. There are too many still open questions on the various options to form a final position. We will continue to monitor the work of the Alliance and its potential impact on our shoreline. Thank you for taking the time to weight in on this matter.
