Plans to build Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital in Manistique, Mich., are frozen because the hospital failed to apply or pay for a building permit, according to a Daily Press report.

“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.
