GRAND HAVEN, Mich. — Grand Haven’s Board of Light and Power will continue operate as it has after voters failed to pass a charter amendment to change its operating structure.
A group was trying to change the city charter to make the Board of Light and Power become a city department within the city of Grand Haven.
They wanted the change the structure of the board from an elected five-person board to a seven-person appointed board that would answer to the city council and city manager.
Grand Haven’s BLP will continue to operate with an elected five-person board following Tuesday’s election.
