The primary function of the Assessing Division is to maintain uniform and equitable property assessments on all tangible real and personal property within the City of Saginaw. Assessing functions are regulated by the State Constitution, Michigan Compiled Laws and The City Charter. Duties include maintaining the City's master records of all property within the city; owners' names and mailing addresses; homestead and transfer affidavits and assessments of tax abated properties. It is also the initial source of the City's land base records and information interfaced to a primary computer system as managed by the Equalizer Assessing program. The division also provides avenues for citizens' appeals of assessments to the Board of Review and Michigan Tax Tribunal.

ASSESSING RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES

Beginning May, 2003, the City Assessor's Office will be conducting a citywide upgrade of basic assessing information on all residential properties. This review includes taking digital pictures and converting condition and class information from current assessing methods to new state approved guidelines.  Teams of two in marked City vehicles will work year round, although the project will be concentrated between the months of March and August.
