About this Article

Not a single vote has been cast, but the Island Lake resident who led a grass-roots campaign to put a referendum about a proposed building plan on the November ballot feels like he's already won. “We’ve got the public involved now,” Beeson said. “The word is getting out, and it’s getting out strong.”
