Entire Tribunal Property Tax Petition 

 

Petitioner Haggerty Corridor Office Centre IV, LLC, by and through its 

attorneys, Williams, Williams, Rattner & Plunkett, PC, states as follows for its Entire 

Tribunal Property Tax Petition. 

The Parties 

1. 

Petitioner Haggerty Corridor Office Centre IV, LLC, is a Michigan 

limited liability company with its principal place of business in Michigan located at 

39000 Country Club Drive, Farmington Hills, Michigan 48331. 

2. 

Respondent the City of Novi is a Michigan city with its principal offices 

located at 45175 W. 10 Mile Rd, Novi, Michigan 48375.

2 

The Subject Property 

3. 

Petitioner owns property identified as Parcel No. 50-22-12-400-060 and 

commonly known as 28175 Cabot Drive, Novi, Michigan 48377 (the “Subject 

Property”). 

4. 

The Subject Property is located in Oakland County and is within the 

Novi Community School District, the Oakland County Community College District, 

and the Oakland Intermediate School District. 

5. 

The Subject Property was designed for, and is presently used for, office 

purposes, though it suffers from significant office vacancy. 

The 2025 Assessment 

6. 

Respondent possesses jurisdiction to assess and collect property taxes 

for the Subject Property. 

7. 

For the 2025 tax year, Respondent classified the Subject Property as 

commercial real property. 

8. 

For the 2025 tax year, Respondent established the Subject Property’s 

assessment for property taxes as follows: 

 

True Cash Value 

 

Assessed Value 

 

Taxable Value 

 

 $4,144,720 

 

 $2,072,360 

 

 $2,058,430 

 

A copy of the Subject Property’s Notice of Assessment is attached to this Petition as 

Exhibit A. 

9. 

Petitioner contends that a lawful assessment of the Subject Property for 

the 2025 tax year cannot exceed the following amounts: 

 

True Cash Value 

 

Assessed Value 

 

Taxable Value 

 

 $3,200,000 

 

 $1,600,000 

 

 $1,600,000

3 

10. 

The amounts in dispute therefore are as follows: 

 

True Cash Value 

 

Assessed Value 

 

Taxable Value 

 

 $944,720 

 

 $472,360 

 

 $458,430 

 

11. 

This Petition presents issues involving the Subject Property’s valuation 

for property tax assessment purposes. Petitioner does not believe that this Petition 

presents any issues arising out of “additions” or “losses” as the General Property Tax 

Act, MCL 211.1 et seq. (the “GPTA”), defines those terms, but reserves its right to 

assert issues involving losses should information supporting such issues become 

available. 

12. 

The Subject Property’s 2025 assessment (a) violates the Michigan 

Constitution, the GPTA, and other Michigan law, (b) is based on erroneous principles 

and information, (c) is based on the misapplication of valuation principles, and (d) 

otherwise violates Petitioner’s rights. 

13. 

Petitioner does not assert that the Subject Property’s 2025 assessment 

is not uniform aside from the lack of uniformity resulting from Respondent 

overestimating the Subject Property’s values. 

Conclusion and Request for Relief 

WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this honorable Tribunal 

enter judgment revising the Subject Property’s 2025 assessment to be consistent with 

the values set forth in Paragraph 9 of this Petition and granting Petitioner all other

4 

relief to which it is entitled under Michigan law. 

 

 

 

 

 

Respectfully Submitted,
