Council to reapprove Dangerous Buildings Ordinance after publication lapse
Summary
Manager Haselden said the previously approved Dangerous Buildings Ordinance failed to be published within Michigan's required 15 days; edits were made, a new ordinance number assigned, and the council will need to approve it again. A local architect expressed interest in serving as the ordinance’s Public Hearing Officer.
Haselden told trustees that the Dangerous Buildings Ordinance previously approved by the council failed to be published within the 15-day window required by Michigan law, necessitating edits to remove outdated references and assignment of a new ordinance number. Because of the publication lapse, the ordinance must be approved again by the council before it can take effect.
Haselden also reported that a local architect contacted the Village expressing interest in serving as the ordinance’s Public Hearing Officer (a role described in the ordinance); she will follow up with the architect after the ordinance is enacted. Council did not vote on the ordinance during the work session; the matter remains on the agenda for future action.
