STATE OF MICHIGAN GRETCHEN WHITMER DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS MARLON I. BROWN, DPA GOVERNOR LANSING DIRECTOR Section 4: Explain the Reason for this Appeal The Assessment Methodology and resulting apportionment is unjust and inequitable. | do not agree my property will gain benefit from the special assessment, in fact, part of this project is disconnecting two illicit storm water pipes that have been using my property without any easements. They have stuck me with unreimbursded damages and refused to remove or repair their illicit pipes, leaving my property with nearly $100,000.00 of past and future costs. The method of assessment is at the highest property type which is appropriate, however, it was then tripled unjustly due to the aforementioned, then the result doubled which is unjust due to, in part, to the aforementioned. The unjust and inequitable result is that 9.474 acres is treated as over 39.7908 acres and then taxed at the highest rate resultiING in an extremely high unjust unequitable assessment/apportionment ($46,166.86) plus the damages to correct issues that are no fault or benefit to my property. Additionally, the Drain Commissioner hid from the entire community including it's supervisors as to the scope and cost and methodology until they sprung the apportionment letters on roughly 400 stakeholders who were clueless and blindsided, causing panic and hardship. Truly a travesty! Section 5: Jurisdictional Issues Did you protest the special assessment at the hearing held to confirm the special assessment roll? [1 Yes [No If Yes, what was the date of the hearing held to confirm the special assessment roll? 05-13-25 & 6/4/2025 If No, explain: Fee Information: A fee of $100.00 is required for the filing of a Special Assessment Appeal.
