e 

The building was valuated using the historical data as the assessor was not allowed to 

enter the property to accurately assess the structure. 

e 

The current assessor took over the Lakefield Township Assessment roll in the fall of 

2023 and has used the historical information based on the notes left from prior 

assessors. Itis assessed at the lowest class of construction (D-10) in order 

to take into 

consideration the characteristics of the building as stated by the property owner.

frontage). If 

| used that land value determination to value this property as vacant, the value 

would be 7.95 acres X $24,000/acre with a value of $190,000. This wouldn’t even take into 

consideration the building on the property.
