Respondent, Oceola Township of Livingston 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: 1900 N LATSON, HOWELL, MI 48843 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 Taxable Value 2026 4707-28-100- 018 $5,634,600.00 $2,817,300.00 $2,538,079.0 0 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.

2026 Entire Tribunal Property Tax Petition & Proof of Service MDC COAST 16 LLC v Oceola Township Parcel Number: 4707-28-100-018 MTT Docket No.: 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 4707-28-100- 018 $2,640,000.00 $1,320,000.00 $1,320,000.00 12. The amount of value in contention for the Subject Property is: Tax Year Parcel Number Assessed Value in Contention 2026 4707-28-100-018 $1,497,300.00 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.
