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 If a Protective Order is issued, documents covered by the order will not be published.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.

PETRANGELO BONDY & CROSSLEY. PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES NOW COMES Respondent Dundee Township and for its Affirmative Defenses states as follows: 1. The appropriate methods of assessing the Subject Properties were used and those methods conform to the methods used to assess similarly situated property in the State. 2. Upon information and belief, Petitioners are four separate and distinct entities which separately own the four individual properties which are the subject of the appeal as of the applicable tax day and therefore this Tribunal does not have jurisdiction to hear this appeal as to four separately owned parcels pursuant to MCL 205.735(a) et seq. 3 Petitioners lack standing te file the Petition as to properties for which the Petitioners are not the record owner. 4.

Old Woodward Ave., Ste. 300 Birmingham, MI 48009 (248) 642-0333 Attorneys for Petitioners Entire Tribunal Property Tax Petition Petitioners Dundee Place Apartments, LLC; Dundee Place Apartments II, LLC; Dundee Place Apartments III, LLC; and Dundee Place Apartments IV, LLC, by and through their attorneys, Williams Williams Rattner & Plunkett, PC, state as follows for their Entire Tribunal Property Tax Petition. The Parties 1. Petitioners are commonly controlled Michigan limited liability companies, all of which have their registered offices located at 321 Woodland Pass, Ste. 300, E. Lansing, Michigan 48823.
Page 2
2 2. Respondent Dundee Township is a Michigan general law township with its principal offices located at 179 Main St., Dundee, Michigan 48131. The Subject Properties 3. Petitioners are parties in interest in properties identified as: (a) Parcel No. 5842-014-015-91, commonly known as 140 Helle Blvd., Dundee, Michigan 48131. (b) Parcel No. 5842-014-015-30, commonly known as 124 Helle Blvd., Dundee, Michigan, 48131. (c) Parcel No. 5842-015-015-90, commonly known as property along Helle Blvd., Dundee, Michigan 48131. And (d) Parcel No. 5842-040-711-41, commonly known as property along Waterstradt Commerce Dr., Dundee, Michigan 48131. These properties are referred to in this Petition as the “Subject Properties.” 4. The Subject Properties are physically contiguous. 5. The Subject Properties are used as an apartment complex with consolidated office, management, and administrative functions. 6. The Subject Properties are located in Monroe County and are within the Dundee Community Schools public school district. The 2025 Property Tax Assessments 7. Respondent possesses jurisdiction to assess and collect property taxes for the Subject Properties.
Page 3
3 8. For the 2026 tax year, Respondent classified the Subject Properties as commercial real property. 9. For the 2026 tax year, Respondent established the Subject Properties’ assessments for property taxes in the amounts set forth on the attached Multiple Parcel Form. 10. Petitioners contend that lawful assessments of the Subject Properties for the 2026 tax year cannot exceed the amounts set forth on the attached Multiple Parcel Form. 11. The amounts in dispute therefore equal the amounts set forth on the attached Multiple Parcel Form. 12. This Petition presents issues involving the Subject Properties’ valuation for property tax assessment purposes. Petitioners do not believe that this Petition presents any issues arising out of “additions” or “losses” as the General Property Tax Act, MCL 211.1 et seq. (the “GPTA”), defines those terms, but reserve their rights to assert issues involving losses should information supporting such issues become available. 13. The Subject Properties’ 2026 assessments (a) violate the Michigan Constitution, the GPTA, and other Michigan law, (b) are based on erroneous principles and information, (c) are based on the misapplication of valuation principles, and (d) otherwise violate Petitioners’ rights.
Page 4
4 14. Petitioners do not assert that the Subject Properties’ 2026 assessments are not uniform aside from the lack of uniformity resulting from Respondent overestimating the Subject Properties’ values. Conclusion and Request for Relief WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this honorable Tribunal enter judgment revising the Subject Properties’ 2026 assessments to amounts that do not exceed the values set forth as Petitioner’s contentions on the attached Multiple Parcel Form and granting Petitioners all other relief to which they are entitled under Michigan law.

2 2. Respondent Dundee Township is a Michigan general law township with its principal offices located at 179 Main St., Dundee, Michigan 48131. The Subject Properties 3. Petitioners are parties in interest in properties identified as: (a) Parcel No. 5842-014-015-91, commonly known as 140 Helle Blvd., Dundee, Michigan 48131. (b) Parcel No. 5842-014-015-30, commonly known as 124 Helle Blvd., Dundee, Michigan, 48131. (c) Parcel No. 5842-015-015-90, commonly known as property along Helle Blvd., Dundee, Michigan 48131. And (d) Parcel No. 5842-040-711-41, commonly known as property along Waterstradt Commerce Dr., Dundee, Michigan 48131.

Respondent possesses jurisdiction to assess and collect property taxes for the Subject Properties.

3 8. For the 2026 tax year, Respondent classified the Subject Properties as commercial real property. 9. For the 2026 tax year, Respondent established the Subject Properties’ assessments for property taxes in the amounts set forth on the attached Multiple Parcel Form. 10. Petitioners contend that lawful assessments of the Subject Properties for the 2026 tax year cannot exceed the amounts set forth on the attached Multiple Parcel Form. 11. The amounts in dispute therefore equal the amounts set forth on the attached Multiple Parcel Form. 12. This Petition presents issues involving the Subject Properties’ valuation for property tax assessment purposes. Petitioners do not believe that this Petition presents any issues arising out of “additions” or “losses” as the General Property Tax Act, MCL 211.1 et seq. (the “GPTA”), defines those terms, but reserve their rights to assert issues involving losses should information supporting such issues become available. 13. The Subject Properties’ 2026 assessments (a) violate the Michigan Constitution, the GPTA, and other Michigan law, (b) are based on erroneous principles and information, (c) are based on the misapplication of valuation principles, and (d) otherwise violate Petitioners’ rights.

4 14. Petitioners do not assert that the Subject Properties’ 2026 assessments are not uniform aside from the lack of uniformity resulting from Respondent overestimating the Subject Properties’ values. Conclusion and Request for Relief WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this honorable Tribunal enter judgment revising the Subject Properties’ 2026 assessments to amounts that do not exceed the values set forth as Petitioner’s contentions on the attached Multiple Parcel Form and granting Petitioners all other relief to which they are entitled under Michigan law.
