HOLLY, Michigan – Village Manager Jerry Walker said 60 code violations were issued in the village of Holly over the course of 2011.  

Among them, Walker said injunctive relief was sought through the 52-2 District Court in Clarkston regarding storage of dumpsters on Cogshall Street. Additionally, Walker said three violations were issued in December, one of which is already resolved, and the other two relating to rental inspections are nearing final resolution.

Walker said four violations have been issued this month, two of which have already been resolved.

“There has been and will continue to be code/ordinance enforcement,” Walker said Tuesday. “The level of enforcement may not be to the level that any of us desire, however, it is part of the building official’s duties – manpower, budget and other issues all play a part in it.”


Walker said he will be submitting a proposal to Village Council members on Jan. 24 to partner with Groveland Township on matters involving code enforcement activities – something he believes will be beneficial to both communities.

The Jan. 24 Village Council meeting is open to the public, and will be held at 7 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 315 S. Broad Street.
