«HGAN TAX TRIBUNAL 

1291 Ridge Road is on a corner lot to a county road and a private drive and is addressed to 

the county road not the private drive. This unique property has no “official” legal easement 

noted from the deeds office or the abstract department for the private drive of Pleasant 

Ridge- however one deed from 1995 does list the burden from the asphalt drive offering 

ingress and egress to others down the road. Pleasant Ridge drive cuts through a large 

portion of our lands northern property and runs the length of the private drive- forking in the 

middle about 25,000+/- square foot and or 3/4 mile long. This drive services 30 parcels and 

allows access their property. 291 Ridge Road has no close neighboring homes on the 

Pleasant Ridge as can be visualized through satellite images showing a large parcel of 

woods between this home and the community of neighbors down the drive. in late 2023 it 

was introduced by the Pleasant Ridge residents that they wanted a new asphalt roadway 

instead of fixing the one that existed. The residents offered a petition where those road 

members agreed at a cost of 

115.473.86 to be shared among only 22 homes that utilize this 

roadway. There are 30 parcels, and some parcels have more than 1 home that utilizes the 

roadway. This petition included 291 Ridge Road- which was not in favor of the new roadway 

without any repairs or the cost sharing method. This was appealed to the township. This 

special assessment district was approved and set to move forward with new road being 

laid in spring of 2024 with 6% interest for 2024, 2025, and 2026 taxes. At this time we were 

not made aware of the appeal process or that we had a right to appeal. The new asphalt 

drive was completed in spring of 2024. Recently in September of 2025 a notice came in the 

mail to our home of a public hearing for a road maintenance fund for seal coating the 

private road. Unknowing of the details we attended the public hearing. The Pleasant Ridge 

residents requested to seal coat the private drive for September 2025 and again in the 

spring of 2026- and have the cost again shared between the 22 homes. 291 Ridge road was 

again not in favor of this as to how often the seal coating to be done or the cost sharing and 

appealed to the township. The Special assessment district was again approved by the 

township by majority rule. During this meeting 2 township members informed us of our 

right to appeal to the tribunal and agreed with our concerns but voiced they could not help 

as the residents that utilize the roadway had majority vote and are the governing bodies per 

the township supervisor. Concerns from us were voiced about usage, owned parcels vs 

homes on the petition, assessed value of homes/land, unreasonable disproportionality 

related to usage/frontage/parcels/using both sides of the road at the fork and having a

this places upon our said property of 291 Ridge Road and the unique circumstances 

related to this. We have owned this property for over 20 years and were never included in 

road funding for the private drive on Pleasant Ridge Road until 2023. Concern remains that 

the residents on this drive will continue to want road maintenance funding frequently 

causing the undue tax burden to our family/property.
