FINAL OPINION AND JUDGMENT 

 

ORDER CORRECTING DOCKET 

 

The Tribunal issued a Proposed Opinion and Judgment (POJ) on October 9, 2025. The 

POJ states, in pertinent part, “[t]he parties have 20 days from the ‘Entered’ date below 

to notify the Tribunal in writing, by mail or by electronic filing, if they do not agree with 

the POJ and to state in writing why they do not agree with the POJ (i.e., file exceptions 

to the POJ).” 

 

Neither party filed exceptions to the POJ. 

 

The Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) considered the testimony and evidence submitted 

and made specific findings of fact and conclusions of law. The ALJ’s determination is 

supported by the testimony and evidence and applicable statutory and case law. 

 

Given the above, the Tribunal adopts the POJ as the Tribunal’s final decision in this 

case.1 The Tribunal also incorporates by reference the Findings of Fact and 

Conclusions of Law contained in the POJ in this Final Opinion and Judgment. As a 

result: 

 

The property’s special assessment, as established by Respondent, is: 

 

Parcel Number: 03-02-176-013 

Type of Special Assessment

Special Assessment to be Levied

Road Paving

$5,511.64

 

The property’s final special assessment, as determined by the Tribunal, is: 

 

Parcel Number: 03-02-176-013 

Type of Special Assessment

Special Assessment to be Levied

Road Paving

$5,511.64

 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the docket is CORRECTED to reflect Kap-Land LLC 

as Petitioner in this matter. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondent shall cause its records to be corrected to 

reflect the special assessment as finally shown in this Final Opinion and Judgment 

within 20 days of the entry of this Final Opinion and Judgment. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the officer charged with collecting or refunding the 

affected special assessment shall collect the assessment and any applicable interest or 

issue a refund within 28 days of entry of this Final Opinion and Judgment. 

 

This Final Opinion and Judgment resolves the last pending claim and closes this case. 

 

APPEAL RIGHTS 

If you disagree with the final decision in this case, you may file a motion for 

reconsideration with the Tribunal or a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of 

Appeals. 

 

A motion for reconsideration must be filed with the Tribunal with the required filing fee 

within 21 days from the date of entry of the final decision. Because the final decision 

closes the case, the motion cannot be filed through the Tribunal’s web-based e-filing 

system; it must be filed by mail or personal service. The fee for the filing of such 

motions is $50.00 in the Entire Tribunal and $25.00 in the Small Claims Division, unless 

the Small Claims decision relates to the valuation of property and the property had a 

principal residence exemption of at least 50% at the time the petition was filed or the 

decision relates to the grant or denial of a poverty or disabled veterans exemption and, 

if so, there is no filing fee. You are required to serve a copy of the motion on the 

opposing party by mail or personal service or by email if the opposing party agrees to 

electronic service, and proof demonstrating that service must be submitted with the 

motion. Responses to motions for reconsideration are prohibited and there are no oral 

arguments unless otherwise ordered by the Tribunal. 

 

Alternatively, you may file a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of Appeals. If the 

claim is filed within 21 days of the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal of right.” If 

the claim is filed more than 21 days after the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal 

by leave.” A copy of the claim of appeal must be filed with the Tribunal to certify the 

record on appeal. There is no certification fee.
