MTT Docket No. 25-002281 Please be advised that 25-002281 has been placed on a two-week Prehearing General Call commencing September 01, 2026. 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 If a Protective Order is issued, documents covered by the order will not be published.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.

Failure to file the Prehearing Statement may result in holding a party or parties in default. See TTR 237.

STATE OF MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Property Tax Consultants for Wood & Water Builders LLC v MTT Docket No. 25-002281 Reynolds Township, PETITION Petitioner, Wood & Water Builders LLC, through their agent, Property Tax Consultants, petitions this Tribunal as follows: 1. Petitioner is Wood & Water Builders LLC whose principal office or address is 4623 Little Harbor Dr, Grand Rapids, MI 49512. Respondent, Reynolds Township, establishes levies and collects the property taxes on the subject property. The property identification is # 59-017-022-001-00 and the subject property address is N Amy School Rd, Howard City, MI 49329. The property is classified as residential, real property. Petitioner’s Property is presently used for commercial. Petitioner believes that Petitioner’s Property was originally designed to be used for commercial. The property is located in Montcalm County and the school districts of Tri County Public and the Montcalm Area Intermediate School District and Montcalm Community College. This matter involves issues relating to the true cash and taxable values for the parcel referenced above for the 2025 tax year. For tax year 2025, Respondent’s Board of Review determined an assessed value of $452,800 a state equalized value of $452,800 and a taxable value of $402,449. Petitioner timely appealed to the March Board of Review and the requested relief was denied. The 2025 values set by the respondent are invalid and unlawful as they exceed the amount allowed by Michigan law and the Michigan Constitution and do not reflect the true cash value of the fee simple interest as of the applicable tax date. Petitioner contends the true cash value of the subject property is $700,000 which would yield a state equalized value of $350,000 and the taxable value is $350,000. The amount in contention is

STATE OF MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Property Tax Consultants for Wood & Water Builders LLC, v MTT Docket No. Reynolds Township, PETITION Petitioner, Wood & Water Builders LLC, through their agent, Property Tax Consultants, petitions this Tribunal as follows: Petitioner is Wood & Water Builders LLC whose principal office or address is 4623 Little Harbor Dr, Grand Rapids, MI 49512. Respondent, Reynolds Township, establishes levies and collects the property taxes on the subject property. The property identification is # 59-017-022-001-00 and the subject property address is N Amy School Rd, Howard City, MI 49329. The property is classified as residential, real property. Petitioner’s Property is presently used for commercial. Petitioner believes that Petitioner’s Property was originally designed to be used for commercial. The property is located in Montcalm County and the school districts of Tri County Public and the Montcalm Area Intermediate School District and Montcalm Community College. This matter involves issues relating to the true cash and taxable values for the parcel referenced above for the 2025 tax year. For tax year 2025, Respondent’s Board of Review determined an assessed value of $452,800 a state equalized value of $452,800 and a taxable value of $402,449. Petitioner timely appealed to the March Board of Review and the requested relief was denied. The 2025 values set by the respondent are invalid and unlawful as they exceed the amount allowed by Michigan law and the Michigan Constitution and do not reflect the true cash value of the fee simple interest as of the applicable tax date. Petitioner contends the true cash value of the subject property is $700,000 which would yield a state equalized value of $350,000 and the taxable value is $350,000. The amount in contention is
