 MTT Docket No. 26-001056

Please be advised that 26-001056 has been placed on a two-week Prehearing General 

Call commencing September 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covered by the order will not be published.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.

Page 2 of 5 

 

3. Respondent, City of Ann Arbor of Washtenaw County, assesses and collects property 

taxes on the Subject Property. 

4. The Subject Property is real property and is classified as Commercial. The Subject 

Property is presently used or available for use for Commercial purposes. Petitioner 

believes that the Subject Property was originally designed to be used for Commercial 

purposes. 

5. Protest to the 2026 Board of Review was not made and is not required by law for the 

Subject Property. 

6. The Subject Property’s address is: 

552 S Main St, Ann Arbor, MI 48104 

7. This appeal involves issues relating to: (a) valuation, (b) assessment, (c) taxable value 

and (d) uniformity. 

8. The tax year(s) at issue are: 2026 

9. The values for the Subject Property as established by Respondent’s Board of Review are: 

 

Tax Year 

Parcel Number 

True Cash Value 

Assessed Value

Value 

2026 

09-09-29-412-

027 

$1,561,800.00

$646,524.00 

 

10. The 2026 assessment, assessed value, state equalized value and taxable value imposed 

upon all parcels of the Subject Property, and the taxes to be levied and collected thereon, 

are invalid and unlawful and operate as a fraud upon the taxpayer for the reasons that: 

a. The assessment, assessed value, state equalized value and/or taxable value 

exceeds the amounts permitted by the Michigan Constitution, applicable 

statutes and case law;

Page 3

2026 Entire Tribunal Property Tax Petition & Proof of Service

Parcel Number: 09-09-29-412-027 

MTT Docket No.: 26-001056 

 

Page 3 of 5 

 

b. The assessment, assessed value, state equalized value and/or taxable value are 

at higher percentages of true cash value than permissible under the Michigan 

Constitution, applicable statutes and case law; 

c. The assessment, assessed value, state equalized value and/or taxable value are 

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

of the Subject Property that is taxable under Michigan law, and are based 

upon the application of wrong principles; and 

d. The assessment, assessed value, state equalized value and/or taxable value, 

and the mode of assessment adopted by Respondent, discriminate against 

Petitioner and denies Petitioner its constitutional rights to uniformity, equal 

protection and dues process of law. 

11. Petitioner contends that the actual values for the Subject Property are: 

Tax Year 

Parcel Number 

True Cash Value 

Assessed Value 

Taxable Value 

2026 

09-09-29-412-

027 

$960,000.00 

$480,000.00 

$480,000.00 

 

 

12. The amount of value in contention for the Subject Property is: 

 

Tax Year 

Parcel Number 

Assessed Value in Contention 

2026 

09-09-29-412-027 

$300,900.00 

 

13. Petitioner relies on the following specific facts to support the relief requested: Market 

sales and income data indicates that the subject property’s assessed value, state equalized 

value and taxable value exceed 50% of its actual market value. In addition, the cost less 

depreciation method Respondent utilizes to establish the Subject Property’s assessment at 

issue is not related to the Subject Property’s actual market value.

ORDER OF DEFAULT

The Tribunal has reviewed the file in the above-captioned case and finds that:

Petitioner filed an Entire Tribunal case information sheet and paid a filing fee. Petitioner 

is required to file a petition and pay the required filing fee to initiate an appeal with the 

Tribunal. See TTR 225 and MCL 205.735a. Because a petition was not filed, the 

appeal is not properly pending. As such, Petitioner must file a petition within 14 days of 

the entry of this order. The petition shall note the docket number assigned by the 

Tribunal and if filed utilizing the Tribunal’s e-filing system, must be filed on the assigned 

docket number as an “amended petition.”

Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner is HELD IN DEFAULT.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the defaulted party shall cure the default, as indicated 

above, within 14 days of the entry of this order.1 

Failure to comply with this order will result in the defaulted party being required to file a 

motion to set aside the default (with appropriate filing fee).
