PROCEDURE

1214 Griswold Apartments LLC,

Petitioner,

City of Detroit,

Respondent.

MTT Docket No. 26-000832

Please be advised that 26-000832 has been placed on a two-week Prehearing General

Call commencing July 16, 2027. Unless ordered otherwise, parties will be notified at

least 28 days before they are scheduled to appear. Scheduling will not necessarily

occur in the order in which the cases are listed below.

Parties are required to submit a valuation disclosure or written notification that no

valuation disclosure is required by the dates indicated herein. A “valuation disclosure”

is defined as documentary or other tangible evidence in a property tax proceeding that a

party relies upon in support of the party’s contention as to the true cash value of the

subject property or any portion thereof and contains the party’s value conclusion and

data, valuation methodology, analysis or reasoning. See TTR 203 and TTR 241.

Users who file documents with the Tribunal are advised that filed documents are

public records and will appear for public viewing on the Tribunal’s Tax Docket

Lookup. If a user wishes to file a document for consideration by the Tribunal and

prevent its publication on the Tax Docket Lookup, the user MUST file a Motion for

Protective Order under MCR 2.302(C)(8). If a Protective Order is issued, documents

covered by the order will not be published. Documents filed prior to the issuance of a

Protective Order will be published.

In accordance with MCR 1.109(D)(9) and TTR 209, the responsibility for excluding or

redacting personal identifying information (PII) from all documents filed with or offered to

the Tribunal rests solely with the parties and their attorneys. The Tribunal is not

responsible for or required to review, redact, or screen documents at the time of filing

for PII whether filed electronically or on paper. A party, representative, or interested

person (i.e. third party not part of an appeal) may request that the Tribunal redact PII

contained in a previously filed document by submitting a Request for Redactions. The

Request for Redactions form is available on the Entire Tribunal and Small Claims pages

of the Tribunal’s website.

Please refer to the Tribunal’s FAQs and Glossary of Terms pages on the Tribunal’s

website for more information.

b. If a valuation disclosure is required, file and exchange their valuation disclosures

unless disclosed and furnished in accordance with this order (even though

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the parties shall file and exchange their Prehearing

Statements by March 19, 2027. Witnesses, with the exception of rebuttal witnesses, will

not be allowed to testify unless disclosed in the Prehearing Statement and the

of good cause by the Tribunal. Failure to file the Prehearing Statement may result in

holding a party or parties in default. See TTR 237.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that “Pre-Valuation Disclosure” discovery is CLOSED on

March 19, 2027, which means all discovery has been requested, all Motions to Compel

have been filed, and all requested or ordered discovery has been exchanged by that

have been filed, and all requested or ordered discovery has been exchanged by that

date. “Post-Valuation Disclosure” discovery is limited to the opposing party’s valuation

disclosure, the opposing party’s valuation expert, and the witnesses identified on the

opposing party’s Prehearing Statement.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if this case is not scheduled for a date certain

prehearing conference during the time frame indicated it may be scheduled for a date

certain prehearing conference at any time subsequent to the completion date for this

Petition 

1214 Griswold Apartments LLC (“Petitioner”), through its attorneys, Honigman LLP, 

says: 

1.

Petitioner's principal office address is 3663 Woodward Avenue, Suite 550, Detroit, 

MI 48201. Petitioner is a party in interest with respect to property taxes on tax parcel number 

02001996. ("Petitioner's Property"), with an address of 1214 Griswold, Detroit, located in Wayne 

County, Michigan. 

2.

Respondent, City of Detroit, assesses and collects property taxes on Petitioner's 

Property.

Page 2

75504741.1

In 2026, Respondent determined the taxable value of Petitioner's Property to be

$5,139,353 and assessed Petitioner's Property at $8,452,900, which will result in a state equalized

value in the same amount based upon the tentative equalization factor.

Petitioner's Property is classified as commercial improved. Petitioner's Property is

presently used or available for use for commercial purposes. Petitioner believes that Petitioner's

Property was originally designed to be used for commercial purposes.

This matter involves issues relating to: (a) valuation, (b) assessment, (c) taxable

value, and (d) due process, equal protection and uniformity.

At this time, Petitioner believes, as it relates to taxable value, that there is a dispute

relative to the value of a loss.

No board of review protest was required for Petitioner’s Property.

The 2026 assessment, including state equalized value and taxable value, imposed

on Petitioner's Property, and the taxes to be levied and collected thereon, are invalid and unlawful

for the reasons that:

(a)

The assessment, including state equalized value and/or taxable value,

exceeds the amount permitted by the Michigan Constitution and applicable statutes;

(b)

The assessment, including state equalized value and/or taxable value, is at

a higher percentage of true cash value than permissible under the Michigan Constitution and

applicable statutes;

(c)

The assessment, including taxable value and/or state equalized value, is

based upon an erroneous determination of the true cash value of that portion of Petitioner's

Property that is taxable under Michigan law, and is based upon the application of wrong principles;

and

Page 3

3 

75504741.1 

(d) 

The assessment, including state equalized value and/or taxable value, and 

the mode of assessment adopted by Respondent, discriminate against Petitioner and deny 

Petitioner its constitutional rights to uniformity, equal protection, and due process of law. 

9.

Petitioner's Property has multifamily units and to the best knowledge of the 

undersigned, Petitioner's Property is not subject to governmental regulatory agreements or a 

subsidy. 

WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that the Tax Tribunal enter an Order: (i) reducing the 

2026 taxable value of Petitioner's Property from $5,139,353to $4,000,000; (ii) reducing the 2026 

assessed value and state equalized value of Petitioner's Property from $8,452,900 to $4,000,000; 

(iii) requiring payment to Petitioner of the refunds attributable to such reductions, plus interest and 

costs; and (iv) awarding Petitioner any other relief to which it is entitled.
