Right. We're on the same page. Board can't approve a 2599 though. That's the form that's filed with the Tax Commission to request Qualified Ag Exemption for land that's NOT classified Ag if it's less than 50% tillable. If the land IS classified Ag,then the 50% rule doesn't apply. If it's NOT classified Ag and is more than 50% tillable the assessor or Board of Review CAN grant Qualified Ag exemption,as long as it meets the other requirements under the "agricultural use" description. That description CAN NOT be used to determine classification though. Only the "agricultural operations" description can be used to classify the property. They're not the same. The "ag operations" description doesn't include the 50% tillable requirement.
It's all spelled out in the 48 page "Qualified Agricultural Property Exemption Guidelines" manual. If you don't have a copy in the office,you can download the PDF from the Michigan.gov website and print it out. Page 16 explains which to use,the Ag use or Ag operations description. Interesting reading.
