If the local governmental body fails to cure the noncompliance within 30 days after receiving the written notice of noncompliance, the attorney general, prosecuting attorney of the county in which the local governmental body serves, or educational institution or private school aggrieved by the local governmental body may commence a civil action to compel compliance or to enjoin further noncompliance with this act.
