Assessment Notification

The Notice of Assessment, Taxable Valuation and Property Classification is sent to every property owner on an annual basis.  An explanation of it follows:

How to Read your Change of Assessment Notice Explanation and Example

The amount in the "CHANGE" column does not reflect the change in tax dollars for 2008. The "CHANGE" column is simply the difference between the 2007 values and the 2008 values.

The change in property tax for 2008 for a property with the Homeowner’s Principal Residence Exemption will be approximately $37.00 for every one thousand dollars of change in the Taxable Value (Change column, Line #1). The $37.00 estimate excludes any changes in the millage/tax rate.

For example, let’s say the Change in Taxable Value ("CHANGE" column, Line #1) equals $1,000. This means the 2008 taxable value on the property has increased by $1,000 from 2007. The calculation to estimate the change in property tax would be 1,000 x .037 = $37.00. Therefore, $37.00 would be the estimated change in property taxes for 2008.

To estimate the change in property taxes for a Homeowner’s Principal Residence Exemption Property:

 

________________________ X .037 = $_____________________________

Insert your Change in Taxable
Value ("CHANGE" column, Line #1)
Change in property tax due to change in Taxable Value

The above estimate excludes any significant change in the millage/tax rates.

For NON-HOMESTEAD PRINCIPAL RESIDENCE EXEMPTION property, substitute:

  • $47.00 (.047) for Bloomfield School District; or,
  • $53.00 (.053) for Avondale School District; or,
  • $47.00 (.047) for Pontiac School District; or,
  • $48.00 (.048) for Birmingham School District.
  • in the above formula.
