Assessing Department

The main purpose of the Assessor’s Office is to annually identify all of the real and personal properties in the township, determine the taxable status and uniformly assess those that are subject to property tax in accordance with the General Property Tax Laws. These taxes are a major source of funding to the local government and the public schools.

The Assessor's office maintains records of all properties in the township.  These records include sketches of structures, amenities of the properties, photos, lists of building permits, history of transfers in ownership, principal residential exemptions, and maps of parcels provided by Jackson County GIS. This information is acquired from deeds recorded at the register of deeds at the County of Jackson and from unrecorded documents that are brought to our office.

The Assessing Department is committed to providing accurate information regarding properties located in Leoni Township to property owners, realtors, appraisers and title companies. In order to provide such information, the assessors will be doing field inspections throughout the year in a marked Chevy Equinox, white.
