Macomb — Ch. 13 Housing § 13-17
Suspension or revocation of certification
Operative Text
If the rental housing inspector or their designee determines that any person has failed to comply with this division or any applicable city code or ordinance, they may suspend or revoke the certificate of inspection.
Under Macomb Ch. 13 Housing § 13-17, a rental housing inspector or their designee holds the authority to suspend or revoke a property's certificate of inspection when a person is found to have failed to comply with the requirements of this division or any applicable city code or ordinance. This provision gives the inspector discretionary power — the word 'may' indicates the action is permitted but not automatically required. The certificate of inspection is a formal credential tied to the rental property's legal standing under the city's housing framework.
