DEFAULT IS UNWARRANTED BECAUSE RESPONDENT MAILED ITS ANSWER ON AUGUST 27, 2026, CURING ANY POTENTIAL DEFICIENCY Petitioner requests to hold Respondent in default for allegedly failing to file a timely answer. Under TTR 281(1) (R 792.10281), an answer must be filed within 28 days after the Tribunal serves the Notice of Docket Number on the respondent. TTR 205(1) (R 792.10205) excludes the first day when calculating that period and includes the last day unless it falls on a

Saturday, Sunday, or state legal holiday, in which case the deadline continues through the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or state legal holiday. For mailed submissions, TTR 225(5) (R 792.10225) provides that the filing date is the date shown by the United States Postal Service postmark. If the envelope does not bear a legible postmark, the submission is considered filed when received. Importantly, an untimely answer does not automatically result in default. TTR 281(1) (R 792.10281) provides that an untimely answer “may result” in the respondent being held in default. Moreover, TTR 281(1) cites TTR 237 (R 792.10237) concerning defaults. Per TTR 237(1), a party held in default must cure the default as directed by the

Charter Township of Harrison Township Clerk’s Office and Board of Trustees 38151 L'Anse Creuse Harrison Township, MI 48045 Formal Letter of Protest II RE: Written objection to proposed Huron Pointe canal dredging Special Assessment District (SAD). Hearing Date: April 13th, 2026 04/13/2026 Property Owner(s): Jeffrey J. Kovacik & Cindy L. Kovacik Property Owner(s) Address: 38886 Pardee Street Harrison Twp., MI. 48045 Parcel Identification Number(s): 17-12-22-103-020 & 17-12-22-103-021 Dear City Clerk Adam Wit and Township Board of Trustees, As the record owners of the properties listed above, we are writing to formally lodge a written protest of objection to the proposed Huron Pointe S.A.D. canal dredging project. We object to this assessment based on the following concerns and invalidity of the project: 1. Note: The below Procedural Errors regarding an Invalid Petition was submitted during the first meeting in March. I am leaving this section in our letter of protest as we do not believe the board should have proceeded with township hearings without resorting back to the point of error in the procedure which would have been redoing the petition which did not have 51% of the lot votes at the time of the meeting. Instead, the board dropped (3) properties off the project and later informed me that (2) properties had combined lots and (3) properties, (in question of both owners having did not sign the petition) were a matter of a death of one of the owners. So, on the fly, it was determined the board could change the number of properties, the amount of property footage and the overall scope of the project. Following the prior errors, we are submitting new errors in the petition procedure that once again should result in the board tabling or not moving forward with this project until the errors are corrected.

In addition, we are questioning the methods of the Township and the protocol that surrounds petitions for Special Assessment District projects. Nowhere in our research have we been able to find the length of time allotted to the parties conducting these petitions to complete the process. Our research has shown many surrounding Townships and Cities which typically allow a maximum of 30 days to complete said process. This particular petition has been circulating from October of 2025 through February of 2026. This in our opinion seems excessive and has created a concerning consequence as a result. We personally experienced and talked with other neighbors that had experienced the same, of petitioners that harassed and attempted to coerce property owners into signing the petition. On a personal level we were contacted via phone and in-person, more than half a dozen times asking us to sign. Despite our answer consistently being

“No”. We were also told that if we did not sign the petition, it was likely that our vacant lot, that was proposed in the project, to be utilized for equipment storage and would not be assessed the project

Hearing Date: April 13th, 2026 04/13/2026 Property Owner(s): Jeffrey J. Kovacik & Cindy L. Kovacik Property Owner(s) Address: 38886 Pardee Street Harrison Twp., MI. 48045 Parcel Identification Number(s): 17-12-22-103-020 & 17-12-22-103-021 Dear City Clerk Adam Wit and Township Board of Trustees, As the record owners of the properties listed above, we are writing to formally lodge a written protest of objection to the proposed Huron Pointe S.A.D. canal dredging project. We object to this assessment based on the following concerns and invalidity of the project: 1. Note: The below Procedural Errors regarding an Invalid Petition was submitted during the first meeting in March. I am leaving this section in our letter of protest as we do not believe the board should have proceeded with township hearings without resorting back to the point of error in the procedure which would have been redoing the petition which did not have 51% of the lot votes at the time of the meeting. Instead, the board dropped (3) properties off the project and later informed me that (2) properties had combined lots and (3) properties, (in question of both owners having did not sign the petition) were a matter of a death of one of the owners. So, on the fly, it was determined the board could change the number of properties, the amount of property footage and the overall scope of the project. Following the prior errors, we are submitting new errors in the petition procedure that once again should result in the board tabling or not moving forward with this project until the errors are corrected.

In addition, we are questioning the methods of the Township and the protocol that surrounds petitions for Special Assessment District projects. Nowhere in our research have we been able to find the length of time allotted to the parties conducting these petitions to complete the process. Our research has shown many surrounding Townships and Cities which typically allow a maximum of 30 days to complete said process. This particular petition has been circulating from October of 2025 through February of 2026. This in our opinion seems excessive and has created a concerning consequence as a result. We personally experienced and talked with other neighbors that had experienced the same, of petitioners that harassed and attempted to coerce property owners into signing the petition. On a personal level we were contacted via phone and in-person, more than half a dozen times asking us to sign. Despite our answer consistently being

“No”. We were also told that if we did not sign the petition, it was likely that our vacant lot, that was proposed in the project, to be utilized for equipment storage and would not be assessed the project

STATE OF MICHIGAN GRETCHEN WHITMER GOVERNOR DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS LANSING ORLENE HAWKS DIRECTOR RE: Written Reason for Appeal to proposed Huron Pointe canal dredging Special Assessment District (SAD). Hearing Date: April 13th, 2026 Property Owner(s): Jeffrey J. Kovacik & Cindy L. Kovacik Property Owner(s) Address: 38886 Pardee Street Harrison Twp., MI. 48045 Parcel Identification Number(s): 17-12-22-103-020 & 17-12-22-103-021 We object to this assessment based on the following concerns and invalidity of the project: 1. Note: The below Procedural Errors regarding an Invalid Petition was submitted during the first meeting in March. I am leaving this section in our appeal as we do not believe the board should have proceeded with township hearings without resorting back to the point of error in the procedure which would have been redoing the petition which did not have 51% of the lot votes at the time of the meeting.
