Brownstown Assessor's Office

For decades, the job of determining the value of property in Brownstown was left to Wayne County officials. But in February 1995, local officials decided it was time for Brownstown to do its own property assessment and hired Susan Iott to do just that.

A level III Certified State Assessor and Personal Property Examiner, Iott is responsible for calculating the taxable value of all of the property in Brownstown. The treasurer's department then uses those figures to calculate property taxes.

In addition to her normal assessing responsibilities, Iott has been conducting a complete update of the property record cards for all township properties.

Iott also maintains and updates the Tax Management Program, which produces the tax rolls and bills for the township. The department processes all transfers and homestead affidavits and records land splits in accordance with the Land Division Act.
