EAST LANSING, Mich. — The City of East Lansing's 2021 assessment notices are expected to be received by East Lansing property owners during the last week of February.
Assessed and taxable values for real property parcels are available now at https://bsaonline.com/?uid=138. Assessment information is available free of charge, 24 hours per day. Due to the presence of coronavirus in the community, the 2021 Assessor’s Review is currently taking place via phone, email and Microsoft Teams. Property owners who wish to participate in the Assessor’s Review may contact Martha Townsend at (517) 319-6880 or by email at mtownse@cityofeastlansing.com to initiate the review process.
The Assessor’s Review is held annually prior to the Board of Review to provide property owners with an opportunity to talk with Assessing Department staff on an informal basis about their assessment. The Assessor’s Review can be helpful for bringing any errors in the data used to value property or specific issues affecting individual properties to the attention of the Assessing Department. Corrections can then be made without a formal appeal to the Board of Review.
Following the Assessor's Review, the Board of Review convenes in March to review the assessment roll of the City, hear complaints of property owners regarding their assessment and to correct the roll where it is deemed just.
