What is the required timeline for sending assessment change notices before the first board of review meeting?

The required timeline for sending assessment change notices is 14 days prior to the first board of review meeting. This notice period is established to ensure that property owners have adequate time to review their assessments and prepare any concerns or questions regarding their property assessments before they attend the board of review. The 14-day timeline helps maintain transparency and allows for effective communication between the assessing office and property owners, fostering an environment where property owners can actively engage in the assessment process. Adhering to this timeline is crucial for compliance with Michigan law, ensuring that all parties involved have the opportunity to participate in the review process effectively.
