Poll: KBIC Gas Station

A proposed gas station along US-41 in Marquette Township may have hit a snag.

A letter from Governor Rick Snyder's office is asking the U.S. Department of the Interior to deny the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community's request that land purchased by them be put into trust.

The land between 41 Lumber and Gander Mountain was purchased by the KBIC tribe with the intent of putting in a gas station. The plan was to use the tribe's Michigan sales tax exemption to sell gas at a cheaper rate.

Tonight in the Daily Pulse we're wondering: Would you support a KBIC-operated gas station in Marquette Township? Yes or no? Why or why not?
