Roscommon equalization director: county property values rose ~10% and board adopts certification
Summary
Equalization Director Jamie Hauserman presented Roscommon County's 2026 equalization report showing roughly 10% assessed-value growth, a 6.42% taxable-value increase, and recommended the board adopt the certification required by state statute; the board voted to sign and adopt the report.
Jamie Hauserman, Roscommon County equalization director, presented the county’s annual equalization report and asked the board to adopt the certification required by state law. She told commissioners that 92% of county property is residential and that assessed values grew roughly 10.04% year-over-year, driven primarily by year-over-year sale prices and new construction in specific townships.
"92% of all property within our county is residential," Hauserman said while walking commissioners through the report, and she recommended the values be equalized "in compliance with section 209.5 and 211.34 of Michigan Compiled Law." The board voted to adopt the acreage and valuation statements and approved resolution 2026-04-01 certifying the equalized values; staff will file the required documentation with the state by the end of the business day.
