LYNCH LAW ATTORNEYS AND COUNSELORS AT LAW 934 E. Eighth Street Traverse City. MI 49686 Deborah Lynch, Esq. Phone: (231) 922-2690 John Patrick Lynch, Esq.* Fax: (231) 922-0236 *Also admitted in the State of Illinois Email: deb@lynchlawtc.com john@lynchlawtc.com SUPPLEMENTAL ATTACHMENT TO PETITION TO BOARD OF REVIEW TO: December Board of Review FROM: John P. Lynch, Attorney at Law RE: Mark Johnson — Parcel 28-01-002-001-03 — Qualified Agricultural Property Exemption DATE: November 21, 2025 My office represents Mark Johnson, owner of 5555 Arnold, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company and previous owner of parent parcel 28-01-002-001-03 (Parent Parcel located at 555 Arnold Road, prior to the January 2025 split of the subject parcel). The Township recently provided my client with a summer tax bill for parcel 28-01-002- 001-03. The tax bill did not reflect the split or sale of the property that occurred earlier in 2025. The tax bill also showed that the Qualified Agricultural Property Exemption (QAPE) had been removed from the property. We believe this removal was made in error and constitutes a mutual mistake, in accordance with MCL 211.53b. This revocation of the prior QAPE status appears to be in error regarding the correct taxable status of the property being assessed. 1.) Proper Notice. Proper notice was not provided to my client under the General Property Tax Act by May 1, 2025 for the removal of the QAPE. While this seems to have been a clerical oversight, as you are aware, if proper notice is not provided by May 1 of the tax year, the qualified agricultural exemption remains in effect regardless of other considerations. The October 2024 Correspondence from the Township and Form 4660 sent in February 2025 does not constitute proper notice. MCL 211.7ee, requires specific procedural compliance including a. Notice that the Township is removing the exemption; b. A clear statement of reasons of why the exemption is being removed; see further MDT Form 1019, Section 6; and ¢. Notice of the appeal period on the same document. 2.) Use Remains Agricultural and is Zoned as Agricultural. As of May 1, 2025, the property was continuously being used for agricultural purposes. No major changes were made to the property that would warrant a rescission of the exemption. The split and subsequent sale occurred after the May 1 assessment date, and the agricultural use continued through that critical date.

Supplemental Attachment dated November 21, 2025 Page 2 Factual Background In early 2024, Mr. Johnson had started to remove his hop trellises from the property in question. The land was being left fallow until it could be determined if it could be further farmed or sold. On October 15, 2024, the Assessor’s office provided the attached correspondence to 5555 Arnold, LLC, of the parent parcel 28-01-002-001-03 (prior to the split), regarding the QAPE. The letters stated: Attached please find the Request to Rescind the Qualified Agriculture Exemption for the abovementioned property. From our observation the property is no longer being used for agricultural production and therefore no longer qualifies for the Qualified Agricultural Exemption. Please complete and return the enclosed document. This Correspondence did not provide proper notice to Mr. Johnson that the Township was rescinding the exemption nor provide the 35 day appeal notice, both of which are required under MCL 211.7ee. Further, the property was still being devoted to 100% agricultural use. “Agricultural Use” as defined in MCL 211.7dd and MCL 324.3610; is defined as follows: "Agricultural use" means the production of plants and animals useful to humans, including forages and sod crops; grains, feed crops, and field crops; dairy and dairy products; poultry and poultry products; livestock, including breeding and grazing of cattle, swine, captive cervidae, and similar animals; berries; herbs; flowers; seeds; grasses; nursery stock; fruits; vegetables; maple syrup production; Christmas trees; and other similar uses and activities. Agricultural use includes use in a federal acreage set- aside program or a federal conservation reserve program. Agricultural use does not include the management and harvesting of a woodlot. At the time of the October 15, 2024, Township Correspondence, while there was removal of the hop trellises from the property, there was no other use being used other than agricultural. Mr. Johnson started the process of splitting his property shortly thereafter. On January 21, 2025, Acme Township approved the split of the parent parcel into an 180-acre parcel and a 20- acre remainder parcel. The split was contingent upon a purchase agreement scheduled to close on April 3, 2025, in which a buyer was to purchase the 180-acre portion (the majority) of the property. In March 2025, Acme Township sent my client Form 4660, Notice of Assessment, Taxable Value, and Property Classification. The notice was sent to a P.O. Box address. While this form purported to have reduced the qualified agricultural exemption to zero, it did not include any stated reason for the removal or provide the proper notice of appeal rights for QAPE as required by MCL 211.7ee. It simply states "market reasons" under Section 6. Further, at that
Page 6
Supplemental Attachment dated November 21, 2025 Page 3 critical time, no major changes of use of the property occurred that would warrant a rescission of the exemption, no split had been recorded, nor had the sale of the property closed. On May 7, 2025, the sale of the 180-acre parcel was completed, and the split was recorded via Warranty Deed, Liber/Page No. 225R-05642, in the Grand Traverse County Register of Deeds Office. Law, Argument and Requested Relief MCL 211.53b provides that the July or December Boards of Review can correct "qualified errors" for the current year and one prior year unless additional years are specifically addressed by the statute. Pursuant to the Michigan State Tax Commission Qualified Agricultural Property Exemption Guidelines, August 2018, page 11: “If an assessor discovers after May 1, a situation where it is clear that a parcel is incorrectly receiving the qualified agricultural property exemption, they have no authority to deny the exemption for the current year; they may only deny the exemption for the next year.” Also see MCL 211.7ee(6). We respectfully protest that the October 2024 Correspondence from the Township and Form 4660 sent in February 2025 did not constitute proper notice under MCL 211.7ee, because they did not follow the specific procedural requirements of: a. Notice that the Township is removing the exemption; b. A clear statement of reasons why the exemption is being removed; and c. Notice of the appeal period on the same document. Notice of the removal must be clear and in a document that fully complies with the Michigan Tax Act. Further, any argument that the two documents should be taken in concert must fail, as it would not provide the statutory requirement of a proper appeal period. Since there was improper notice to Mr. Johnson, as of May 1, 2025, the QAPE should not have been removed and should be credited for the full year of 2025. Further, while neither correspondence from the Township identified the reason they believed that the exemption no longer existed, assuming it was the act of removing the hop trellises from the property, that alone cannot remove the exemption. A parcel, not actively being farmed, may still be eligible for the exemption. “For example, the land may be intentionally left fallow or the growing season for a crop in some parts of the State may begin after May 1, etc.” Michigan State Tax Commission Qualified Agricultural Property Exemption Guidelines, August 2018, page 2. Further, vacant agricultural property is considered “agricultural use” under MCL 211.34¢(2).

Supplemental Attachment dated November 21, 2025 Page 4 Again, the official recording of the sale and splitting of the property in question took place on May 7, 2025. Pursuant to MCL 211.7ee(6), MCL 211.7dd and MCL 324.36101, the parcel remained in agricultural use as of May 1, 2025. Wherefore, we respectfully request the Board of Review reverse and reinstate the subject property of its Qualified Agricultural Property Exemption for 2025, for the reasons stated herein, and order the adjustment and reissue of the property tax bills accordingly.
