Pursuant to Section 8395 of the Michigan Revised Judicature
Act, as added by Public Act No. 154 of 1968 (MCL 600.8395), a parking
violations bureau, for the purpose of handling alleged parking violations
within the Village, is hereby established. The parking violations

[Ord. of 7-4-2004, § 3]
Only violations scheduled in Section 32-75 shall be disposed of by the parking violations bureau. The fact that a particular violation is scheduled shall not entitle the alleged violator to disposition of the violation at the bureau and in any case the person in charge of such a bureau may refuse to dispose of such violation in which case any person having knowledge of the facts may make a sworn complaint before any court having jurisdiction of the offense as provided by law.
[Ord. of 7-4-2004, § 4]
(a)
No violation may be settled at the parking violations
bureau except at the specific request of the alleged violator. No
penalty for any violation shall be accepted from any person who denies
having committed the offense and in no case shall the person who is
in charge of the bureau determine, or attempt to determine, the truth
or falsity of any fact or matter relating to such alleged violation.
No person shall be required to dispose of a parking violation at the
parking violations bureau and all persons shall be entitled to have
any such violation processed before a court having jurisdiction thereof
if they so desire. The unwillingness of any person to dispose of any
violation at the parking violations bureau shall not prejudice him
nor in any way diminish the rights, privileges and protection accorded
to him by law.
(b)
In the event that any person involved in the violation
of this section declines to dispose of a parking violation at the
parking violations bureau, or fails to pay the fine imposed by this
section, or shall deny that he is guilty of the alleged violation,
it shall be the duty of the law enforcement officer having knowledge
of the facts to make a complaint before the district or trial court
charging such person with the alleged violation.
[Ord. of 7-4-2004, § 5]
The issuance of a traffic ticket or notice of violation by a
law enforcement officer of the township shall be deemed an allegation
of a parking violation. Such traffic ticket or notice of violation
shall indicate the length of time in which the person to whom the
same was issued must respond before the parking violations bureau.
It shall also indicate the address of the bureau, the hours during
which the bureau is open, the amount of the penalty scheduled for
the offense for which the ticket was issued.
