Petition 2 7. The tax year at issue is 2026. 8. The values1 established by Respondent’s Board of Review for the subject property are: Parcel Number TCV SEV TV 70-16-16-181-008 3,542,000 1,771,000 1,771,000 9. Petitioner contends that the values1 for the subject property are: Parcel Number TCV SEV TV 70-16-16-181-008 2,000,000 1,000,000 1,000,000 10. The values1 in dispute are. Parcel Number TCV SEV TV 70-16-16-181-008 1,542,000 771,000 771,000 11. Petitioner relies upon the following to support the relief requested: The 2026 values imposed on Petitioner’s property, and the taxes to be levied and collected thereon, are invalid and unlawful and operate as fraud upon the taxpayer for the reasons that: (a) The assessed, state equalized and/or taxable values exceed the amounts permitted by the Michigan Constitution and applicable statutes; (b) The assessed, state equalized and/or taxable values are at higher percentages of true cash value than permissible under the Michigan Constitution and applicable statutes; (c) The assessed, state equalized and/or taxable values are based upon an erroneous determination of the true cash value of that portion of Petitioner’s property that is taxable under Michigan law and are based upon the application of wrong principles; and (d) The assessed, state equalized and/or taxable values, and the mode of assessment adopted by Respondent, discriminate against Petitioner and deny Petitioner its constitutional rights of uniformity, equal protection and due process of law. Petitioner requests that the Tribunal enter an order reducing the 2026 values from those established by Respondent’s Board of Review to those contended by Petitioner, and order refunds attributable to the reductions, with interest, as provided by the Tax Tribunal Act. 1TCV=true cash value, SEV=state equalized value, TV=taxable value.
