Laws, and has caused corrections to be made where necessary; and

rates as adjusted by M.C.L. 211.34, M.C.L. 211.34D, and M.C.L. 211.34E of the
General Property Tax Laws, authorized to be spread against state taxable
valuations, which certificates are submitted herewith, and which are the basis for
the tabulation above mentioned, and it is recommended that the Board of
Commissioners authorize the Equalization Director to sign these certificates; and
