    and proposal for settlement, accompanied by a motion requesting relief from the hearing

    admits the alleged violations in the complaint as listed above and proposes to pay a $15,000
    penalty.

    stipulation and proposal for settlement accompanied by a request for relief from the hearing

    newspaper notice. Any person may file a written demand for hearing within 21 days of the
    published notice. If a hearing is requested, the Board will deny the parties’ request for relief and
    schedule a hearing.
