In response to the severe storm that struck the Charter Township of Kalamazoo on May 15, 2025, causing widespread tree damage, downed power lines, and blocked roadways, the Township Board swiftly and unanimously approved emergency funding for storm debris cleanup efforts. The decision reflects the Township’s commitment to service and its proactive approach to supporting the community in times of need. On June 2, 2025 curbside brush pickup will commence across affected areas. Beginning immediately, tree removal services are being prioritized and evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Residents are asked to place manageable brush near the roadside. For larger trees or more complex needs, residents may submit a service request via the Township website at ktwp.org/contact-and-hours or by calling (269) 381-8080.

Understanding Assessing and Assessed Values

The Township  Assessor's Office  is responsible for administering the property tax laws of the State of Michigan. The Assessor's Office prepares the assessment roll for properties within Kalamazoo Township.

Some things to keep in mind about Assessed Values & Taxable Values

  • Your taxes are based on the Taxable Value of your property.
  • Your Assessed Value represents approximately half of the estimated True Cash Value of your property.
  • Your Taxable Value can never exceed your assessed value.
  • Your Taxable Value can only increase by the rate of inflation or 5%, whichever is less. Unless  there is a physical change to your property or there has been transfer of ownership
  • The annual changes in your Assessed Value are based on sale studies conducted every year for properties that have sold in your in neighborhood.
