If you disagree with a violation notice under PA 230 of 1972, what may you do?

Requesting a variance from the Board of Appeals is the appropriate course of action if you disagree with a violation notice under PA 230 of 1972. Under this law, individuals or entities can appeal a decision that they believe was made incorrectly or unfairly by seeking a variance. This process allows for a formal review where the Board of Appeals can consider the specific circumstances surrounding the violation and potentially grant an exemption or adjustment to the requirements imposed by the violation notice.

This option is aligned with administrative procedures and regulatory frameworks that govern such matters, providing a legitimate avenue to seek redress. Engaging with the Board of Appeals ensures that the disagreement is handled through the proper legal channels, promoting a fair assessment under the applicable law.

Other responses may not provide the necessary official recourse for disputing the notice. For instance, simply contacting the State of Michigan Mechanical Division could lead to further confusion or inaction, as this may not directly address your concern in a structured way. Reaching out to your Congressman, while it may seem appealing as a means of advocacy, does not pertain to the specific procedural avenue provided under this law. Replying in writing and disregarding the notice does not constitute an acceptable legal response and may even exacerbate the situation by
