Respondent.

 MTT Docket No. 26-001123

Please be advised that 26-001123 has been placed on a two-week Prehearing General 

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covered by the order will not be published.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

AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES 

 

Respondent City of Wixom asserts the following affirmative defenses: 

1. 

Petitioner fails to allege specific and sufficient facts to set forth a cause of action 

against Respondent and to support its claim for relief. 

2. 

The Tribunal is charged with finding a property’s true cash value to determine the 

property’s lawful assessment. Alhi Development Co v Orion Twp, 110 Mich App 764, 767 

(1981). 

3. 

Petitioner has the burden of establishing the property’s true cash value. See 

MCL 205.737(3) and Kern v Pontiac Twp, 93 Mich App 612 (1974). 

4. 

Petitioner has failed to allege specific and sufficient facts to establish fraud, error 

of law, discrimination, application of wrong principles, or illegality on the part of Respondent or 

its agents.

Page 4

Entire Tribunal Property Tax Answer 

Page 4 of 5 

 

5. 

Petitioner has failed to allege that the mode and method of assessing the subject 

property fails to conform to the mode and method applied in the case of all other properties in 

Respondent’s taxing unit for the year in question. 

6. 

Petitioner has failed to show that any factor other than fifty percent (50%) was 

applied to the true cash value of Petitioner’s property, as well as all others, to arrive at the 

respective assessments appearing on the roll, and also fails to allege specific and sufficient facts 

to support its allegations that the property’s taxable value is improper. 

7. 

Petitioner asks the Tribunal to grant it preference by application of a self-chosen 

method of assessment contrary to the intent, purpose and law of this State. 

8. 

Petitioner, in essence, asks the Tribunal to grant it an illegal preference by 

application of a method of assessment different from that employed in the assessment of other 

properties in Respondent’s taxing unit.

Page 2 of 5 

 

3. Respondent, City of Wixom of Oakland County, assesses and collects property taxes on 

the Subject Property. 

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

is presently used or available for use for Industrial purposes. Petitioner believes that the 

Subject Property was originally designed to be used for Industrial 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: 

10100 ASSEMBLY PARK DR, WIXOM, MI 48393 

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

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

$19,054,200.00 

$9,527,100.00 

$7,961,710.0

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

exceeds the amounts permitted by the Michigan Constitution, applicable 

statutes and case law;

Parcel Number: 96-22-07-200-025 

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 

96-22-07-200-

025 

$12,000,000.00 

$6,000,000.00 

$6,000,000.00 

 

 

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

 

Tax Year 

Parcel Number 

Assessed Value in Contention 

2026 

96-22-07-200-025 

$3,527,100.00 

 

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.

3. Respondent, City of Wixom of Oakland County, assesses and collects property taxes on

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

is presently used or available for use for Industrial purposes. Petitioner believes that the

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: 

10100 ASSEMBLY PARK DR, WIXOM, MI 48393

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

exceeds the amounts permitted by the Michigan Constitution, applicable 

statutes and case law;

Parcel Number: 96-22-07-200-025 

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

Tax Year 

Parcel Number 

Assessed Value in Contention 

2026 

96-22-07-200-025 

$3,527,100.00 

 

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.
