Assessing is the method used to determine
how much taxpayers will pay in property taxes. Property taxes are charges to taxpayers
for the costs of governmental programs and services that benefit the general public and
to finance public improvements, such as a road project or new fire station.
All taxable property within a township must
be annually assessed by the township supervisor or other assessor (MCL 211.10) who is
certified as qualified by the State Assessors Board. (MCL 211.10d)
Annually, the assessor shall prepare
an assessment roll that describes all taxable real and personal property in the township
as of December 31 and its assessed and taxable values.
The assessor presents the roll to the
board of review by the Tuesday following the first Monday in March. The assessor
must also send notices of assessment increases to taxpayers at least 10 days before the
Tuesday following the first Monday in March. These are increases that will show up in
the summer and winter tax bills in that year.
The board of review meets in March
and examines and adjusts the property values on the assessment roll as necessary and
appropriate. Taxpayers who want to appeal their assessment must first go to the board
of review in March. If they are denied an adjustment, they may then appeal to the Michigan
Tax Tribunal.
