“I shut them down,” said Jake Rivard, Schoolcraft County building inspector and code official. “For a $26 million project, this is kind of unheard of.”
Rivard said Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital is “definitely breaking the law” by building without a permit.
A cease and desist order halts construction until the hospital purchases a building permit. More than six months have passed since the project began.
Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital officials did not comment in the report.
