Section 4: Check which of the following you are appealing

Qualified Agricultural Exemption

Section 5: Explain the Reason for this Appeal

Property is farmed by MI Family Farm for hay production. MFF and petitioner also harvest sap and produce maple syrup for MFF direct to consumer sales. All of 

the property is either farmed for hay or maple syrup. As a point of interest, petitioner (through and LLC) owns an adjacent parcel which is also leased to MFF. 

Although there is significantly less maple syrup produced from the adjacent parcel (hay production being more significant), Hartland Township approved the 

agricultural exemption on the adjacent piece but denied the exemption for the parcel subject to this appeal. Petitioner provided the same level of documentation is 

support of farming to Hartland Township. Petitioner respectfully requests the Tax Tribunal to grant the agricultural exemption as all of the property is used for 

farming purposes.
