Section 4: Explain the Reason for this Appeal 

| do not agree my property will gain value from the special assessment. The acreage 

amount was wrong. The extremely complex assessment methodology is not equitable. 

The multipliers are excessive and punitive and maxed out on this property. The 

benefiting municipalities are not paying an equitable share. Costs to correct MDOT 

Roadway and Mecosta County property illicit water dumping onto this property without 

any rights to do so should be their sole cost and not part of this project. The public, 

landowners in the Tonkin Drain District and this property owner were deprived a basic 

right of due process and discovery of the project scope, growth in cost, and funding 

apportionment methodology that changed drastically from the original Determination of 

Need. What was estimated in 2019 to be a $16,000 cost was suddenly surprise billed at 

roughly $53,000 with no details. 

Section 5: Jurisdictional Issues

Yes 

[a] No
