an L-4175 for the years 2020 or 2021, therefore the value was estimated. Owner filed 

incomplete L-4175's with the wrong local unit (City of Coopersville) for both 2022 and 

2023. Again, owner filed an incomplete L-4175 for 2024, therefore value of site 

improvements were estimated. 

Petitioner has offered no evidence of value on on the incomplete L-4175 filings or 

evidence in support of the $92,000 claim of TCV on the petition.
