IT IS ORDERED that the Joint Stipulation for Entry of Consent Judgment including all 

attachments, terms, and conditions is GRANTED and ADOPTED, unless otherwise 

indicated. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the officer charged with maintaining the assessment 

rolls for the tax years at issue shall correct or cause the assessment rolls to be 

corrected to reflect the property’s true cash and taxable values as provided in this 

Consent Judgment within 20 days of the entry of the Consent Judgment.2 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the officer charged with collecting or refunding the 

affected taxes shall collect taxes and any applicable interest or issue a refund as 

required by the Consent Judgment within 28 days of the entry of the Consent 

Judgment. If a refund is warranted, it shall, unless otherwise indicated, include a 

proportionate share of any property tax administration fees paid and of penalty and 

interest paid on delinquent taxes. The refund shall also, unless otherwise indicated, 

separately indicate the amount of the taxes, fees, penalties, and interest being 

refunded. A sum determined by the Tribunal to have been unlawfully paid shall, unless 

otherwise indicated, bear interest from the date of payment to the date of judgment and 

the judgment shall bear interest to the date of its payment. A sum determined by the 

Tribunal to have been underpaid shall not bear interest for any time period prior to 28 

days after the issuance of this Consent Judgment. Pursuant to MCL 205.737, interest

INFORMAL SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE: Parties have the option of handling this 

case through an informal settlement conference. An informal settlement conference 

is a meeting between the parties and/or their representatives to discuss the issues in a 

case in an effort to settle the case. This process may be an alternative to a hearing with 

a judge and may result in the parties’ filing a Joint Stipulation for Entry of Consent 

Judgment. Visit the Tribunal’s ADR webpage for more information.

NOTE: The parties may not request an informal settlement conference to discuss an 

appeal of a principal residence exemption that was denied by either the Michigan 

Department of Treasury or a County. Also, state taxes levied by the Michigan 

Department of Treasury, such as income taxes, are not subject to the informal 

settlement conference process.

Section 4: Explain Your Answer to this Appeal 

2025 SEV reflect 50% of market value as determined by the sales study of Fenton Township. 

Taxable value is calculated correctly and uncapped the year after purchase. 

Purchase price was $70,000 on 1/24/2024. Township could not verify as an arm's length 

transaction as this sale was below the other comparable units within the sales period. The sale of 

this property @$70,000 is also the same as the seller purchased in 2021, questioning the sale price 

as an arm's length transactions. Fenton Township sales for the Commercial class is still increasing 

and has not yet stabled out, again another reason for why this sale was determined to be an outlier 

in the study. Other comparable units sold for $90,000 to 103,300 with no improvements while the 

improved units sold upwards of $150,000 in the same time period for the same square footage. 

Sales for $70,000 in the same sales period represented 750 s.f. units and not the 1080 s.f units. 

When adjustments were made to these comparables the determination was more than the current 

assessment valuing around the mid 90's. 

Other sales were reviewed but not used as those units had improvements including bathrooms, 

water, heating/cooling and finished lofts which this unit does not have and would have increased 

the net adjustment drastically. 

None of the sales provided for the Board of Review were recent sales outside of the subject 

property. Attached sales comparison sheet shows the most relevant sales within the sales period. 

Section 5: Jurisdictional Issues 

IF PETITIONER IS APPEALING THE TRUE CASH AND/OR TAXABLE VALUES 

Did Petitioner protest the assessment at a Board of Review (BOR)? 7) Yes 

O No 

If yes, check which BOR Petitioner attended: [] March

If no, was the Notice of Assessment properly sent to Petitioner prior to the March BOR? [I] Yes
