Parcel Combinations

Four Lakes apportions costs to all properties within the SAD based on benefits derived. Consequently, adjacent properties will be assessed.
​
That said, if a property owner wishes to combine their parcels, they may coordinate with their local assessor and follow the procedures set forth by that local authority to do so. If there is sufficient time to consolidate the parcels into a single parcel during the year of 2022 when the first O&M assessment is levied, FLTF is proposing a grace period for property owners, provided that property owners can provide documentation, through their local assessors’ office, that the combination will take effect in 2023. 

If you wish to combine parcels, follow these steps:

1. Contact your township assessor requesting a parcel combination. Include the parcel IDs in your request. IF APPROVED, the township assessor’s response should include approval of the combination and also the date in which the parcel combination will take effect.
   
   1. Visit your township website to get the name and contact information of your assessor.
2. When your township assessor approves the request, the assessor will send the approval to the appropriate departments as well as to FLTF.
3. FLTF must have the letter by June 15, 2022, so be sure to contact your township assessor well in advance to assure you meet the deadline.

​For questions, please contact your local Township Assessor.
