Assessing
The Township Assessor,
Sherry Mason,
MCAO, MCPPE determines the
appraised value of property
through statistical and analytical
methods. Property values are based upon
Proposal A, approved by Michigan voters in 1994.
These taxable values are used to determine the distribution of
property taxes levied to taxpayers. Only If values are
current, correct and equitable will tax limits, debt limits and the
distribution of state funds to the state, county, cities and
townships, schools, colleges, etc. be as the Legislature intended.
The assessor maintains property record cards at the township office
reflecting such things as current ownership of real propety by
accurately tracking all land transfers, splits and subdivisions.
This helps develop accurate and fair assessment rolls, land value
maps and economoic condition maps (ECF) for the township, Allegan
County and the Michigan State Tax Commission.
Saugatuck Township Assesing records are available online 24/7.
