Shoshana R Grant, 

Petitioner, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL

 SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION

v 

 MTT Docket No. 26-002486

City Of Hazel Park,

Respondent.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that:

The issue in this case is already pending in another case and, as such, this appeal is 

duplicative and shall be dismissed. 

Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED.

This order resolves all pending issues and closes the case.

APPEAL RIGHTS

If you disagree with the final decision in this case, you may file a motion for 

reconsideration with the Tribunal or a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of 

Appeals. 

A motion for reconsideration must be filed with the Tribunal with the required filing fee 

within 21 days from the date of entry of the final decision. Because the final decision 

closes the case, the motion cannot be filed through the Tribunal’s web-based e-filing 

system; it must be filed by mail or personal service. The fee for the filing of such 

motions is $50.00 in the Entire Tribunal and $25.00 in the Small Claims Division, unless 

the Small Claims decision relates to the valuation of property and the property had a 

principal residence exemption of at least 50% at the time the petition was filed or the 

decision relates to the grant or denial of a poverty or disabled veterans exemption and, 

if so, there is no filing fee. You are required to serve a copy of the motion on the 

opposing party by mail or personal service or by email if the opposing party agrees to 

electronic service, and proof demonstrating that service must be submitted with the 

motion. Responses to motions for reconsideration are prohibited and there are no oral 

arguments unless otherwise ordered by the Tribunal.

Alternatively, you may file a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of Appeals. If the 

claim is filed within 21 days of the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal of right.” If

Page 2

MTT Docket No. 26-002486

Page 2 of 2

the claim is filed more than 21 days after the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal 

by leave.” A copy of the claim of appeal must be filed with the Tribunal to certify the 

record on appeal. There is no certification fee.

I am writing to formally appeal the March 2026 Board of Review decision regarding the assessed value of

my property. I respectfully dispute the current assessed value and request further consideration based on

documented evidence of the property' s true cash value.

Enclosed with this letter are the Board of Review results, along with a recent independent appraisal

completed to determine the fair market value of my home. The appraisal establishes a true cash value of

$333,000.

Prior to the review, my property was assessed at $210,980, which significantly exceeded 50% of the

documented true cash value. Following the Board of Review, the assessed value was reduced to

$180,000, which I appreciate. However, this assessment remains inconsistent with the requirements of

the Michigan General Property Tax Act.

Under Michigan law, a property' s assessed value may not exceed 50% of its true cash value. Based on

the verified appraisal value of $333,000, the maximum allowable assessed value should be $166,500.

The current assessment of $180,000 exceeds this statutory limit.

For these reasons, I respectfully request a further reduction of my property' s assessed value to

$166,500, in accordance with state law and the supporting appraisal documentation provided.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this appeal. Please let me know if any additional information

or documentation is needed to assist with your review.

Jurisdictional Issues:

Did you protest the assessment at a Board of Review? Yes

Enclosed with this letter are the Board of Review results, along with a recent independent appraisal 

compleled to determine the fair market value of my home. The appraisal establishes a true cash value of 

$333,000. 

Prior to the review, my property was assessed at $210,980, which significantly exceeded 50% of the 

documented true cash value. Following the Board of Review, the assessed value was reduced to 

$180,000, which 

| appreciate. However, this assessment remains inconsistent with the requirements of 

the Michigan General Property Tax Act. 

Under Michigan law, a properly’ 

s assessed value may not exceed 50% of its true cash value. Based on 

the verified appraisal value of $333,000, the maximum allowable assessed value should be $166,500. 

The current assessment of $180,000 exceeds this statutory limit. 

For these reasons, 

| respectfully request a further reduction of my property’ 

s assessed value to 

$166,500, in accordance with state law and the supporting appraisal documentation provided. 

Thank you for your time and consideration of this appeal. Please let me know if any additional information

I am writing to formally appeal the March 2026 Board of Review decision regarding the assessed value of

my property. I respectfully dispute the current assessed value and request further consideration based on

documented evidence of the property' s true cash value.

Enclosed with this letter are the Board of Review results, along with a recent independent appraisal

completed to determine the fair market value of my home. The appraisal establishes a true cash value of

$333,000.

Prior to the review, my property was assessed at $210,980, which significantly exceeded 50% of the

documented true cash value. Following the Board of Review, the assessed value was reduced to

$180,000, which I appreciate. However, this assessment remains inconsistent with the requirements of

the Michigan General Property Tax Act.

Under Michigan law, a property' s assessed value may not exceed 50% of its true cash value. Based on

the verified appraisal value of $333,000, the maximum allowable assessed value should be $166,500.

The current assessment of $180,000 exceeds this statutory limit.

For these reasons, I respectfully request a further reduction of my property' s assessed value to

$166,500, in accordance with state law and the supporting appraisal documentation provided.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this appeal. Please let me know if any additional information

or documentation is needed to assist with your review.
