In putting together the draft PILT agreements, Circle Power Renewables turned to tax attorney Jack Van Coevering of Foster Swift. Van Coevering has represented many Michigan communities in defending property tax litigation, often after the taxpayer received tax incentives from the local government unit. He has been an outspoken advocate against the practice of companies using tax appeals, often without merit, to force local units to accept a lower valuation simply to avoid the cost of litigation. Van Coevering has long represented the City of Escanaba in its fight to defend against a “Dark Store” appeal.
