TUSCOLA COUNTY Some of the recent business development in Tuscola County’s Indianfields Township is being challenged with legal action.
The Tuscola Area Airport Authority approved taking legal action against individuals and municipalities that are disregarding their lawful duties to obey the airport overlay and its accompanying county ordinance.
TAAA sent notice to Tuscola County leaders it intends to seek legal action.
The issue centers on SCMCCI, which is the agency Tuscola County Commissioners hired to handle building codes in the county, and with Indianfields Township allegedly allowing improper business development around the airport in violation of the county s airport ordinance.

TUSCOLA COUNTY The company that was hired to do building codes, as well as health department issues, dominated a recent six-hour Tuscola County meeting.
For the last few years, a variety of complaints have been about South Central Michigan Construction Code Inspections service regarding building codes.
On March 31, Cass City Village President Daniel Delamarter wrote to the Tuscola County Economic Development Corporation about issues the village is having with SCMCCI.
“The village has received numerous complaints about the excessive requirements and inspections requested by SCMCCI, wrote Delamarter. As the village seeks to draw new business and grow, SCMCCI is presenting an obstacle that we have no control over, that is stopping economic development.
