Dear Editor, In regards to your “opinion piece” of “Stop the complaints,” I find it ironic that you include “credibility” in the bottom of your recent piece. Matt, you mention this as if you have any credibility of anything to do with Clarkston when in the moment your fingers began typing, you completely lost yours. […]
Dear Editor, Kudos to the staff at the Clarkston Independence District Library for the excellent curbside service they are providing during the pandemic. A definite asset to our community! Sincerely, Ken Lemieux Independence Township
Dear Editor, I often ask the residents of Independence Township why they think the planning commission and the township board members don’t seem to be working for them or protecting the residents when it comes to new developments in the community. The residents understand there will be development. Do the board members understand they work […]
Dear Editor, (In response to the outdoor seating tent on Church Street next to Honcho.) That looks like (heck) and makes the town look like a junkyard is now moving in. Stop giving in to the restaurant and taking away the old-town look. Rudy’s did our wedding for us 52 years ago. The town made us […]

If we wanted all the amenities and traffic and commerce we would have moved to Troy or Rochester Hills. I look to […]
Dear Editor, It has been said by many that a healing process should begin after the election procedure between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. But wait a minute. Many Trump supporters are just plain provoked or angered. It was an unfair election setup. The violence and the countless negative comments of the Democratic party and several leading […]
Dear Editor, As a public health professional for the last 35 years, I have been often disappointed and, at times, appalled by some behaviors I have seen in local businesses. Primarily, I am addressing the failure to wear masks in retail stores and restaurants. Since the beginning of the pandemic, I have curtailed visits to […]
