Within the next couple of days you should receive your Notice of Assessment form your Leelanau County or Grand Traverse County Township Assessor, if you haven’t received it already. Please take a moment to download a PDF I have uploaded by clicking HERE. This PDF was created by the Americans for Prosperity Foundation in Michigan and does a great job of explaining your Notice of Assessment and the procedure for having your assessment reduced. The annual Board of Review is your only chance this year to fight your property tax assessment! In Leelanau County there are specific times set up for the public to express their concerns to the board from March 16-19. If you would like to know the specific times for each township please feel free to call our office and we can read them to you.
