For Property Managers

CH. 134 § 134-7 provides property owners with a structured avenue to challenge orders issued under this bylaw. A compliant operator who wishes to contest an order generally ensures that a written notice of appeal and a request for a public hearing are filed with the Town Manager's appointed board within the strict 10-day window following receipt of the order. Keeping clear records of when an order was received helps establish the timeline for this deadline.

For Tenants

While CH. 134 § 134-7 specifically governs the appeal rights of property owners, understanding this process can be relevant to tenants whose housing may be affected by orders issued under this bylaw. If a landlord files an appeal, a public hearing is part of the process, which may provide an opportunity for affected parties to be informed of or participate in proceedings. Tenants with concerns about how an appeal may affect their housing situation may wish to consult a local tenant-rights organization or the Town of North Attleborough for guidance on available options.
