It is located between 83rd Avenue and 95th Avenue and boarded between Highway 34 and 20th Street. The entire lot is 6.012 acres. The land north of this parcel is residential (Pebble Brook subdivision and Mountain Shadow subdivision). The land directly east of this parcel isa commercial business. Highway 34 is directly south of this parcel and across Highway 34 is agricultural land. The land west of this parcel is agricultural, vacant, and commercial land. Although this parcel is 6.012 acres in size, only 4.882 acres is usable land, due to the highway right of way and the slope of its terrain. Because of these conditions, a negative 25% land attribute was applied to the original $21,678 dollar per acre value to account for the non -usable area. The adjusted dollar per acre now reflects a value of $15,930 per acre. During our inspection of this parcel in preparation for this hearing, it was discovered that this property is not vacant residential land, but it is in fact commercial property. Per the Qty of Cccley, this parcel is zoned C-3 Business Commercial. Thistype of zoning indudes businesses such as gas stations, restaurants, parking lots, and car dealerships.

Assessors are required to consider, and when applicable, to apply the present worth valuation procedure when using the market approach to value vacant land, § 39-1-103(14)(b), C.R.S As required by 39-1-104(10.2), C.R.S., the market value is determined by utilizing data from the period of one and one-half years immediately prior to June 30th, 2012. If sufficient comparable valuation data is not available within the eighteen -month time period, the assessor shall use market data from the five year period immediately prior to one 30th, 2012. When appropriate, all sales are to be ti me adjusted to the appraisal date of line 30th, 2012. Although the appraisal date is June 30, 2012, the physical characteristics are reflective of the property as of January 1, 2013. DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE: The most probable price, as of a specified date, in cash, or in terms equivalent to cash, or in other precisely revealed terms, for which thespecified property rightsshould sell after rcasonabl e exposure i n a competitive market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, with the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and for self interest, and assuming that neither is under undue duress." {The Appraisal Institute} After consideration of the cost, market and income approaches to value, our current market value of the property as of line 30th, 2012 is: ASSESSOR'S VALUE VACANT LAND $95,773 Total: $95,773 CBOEVacLand010998 Page 5 Cost Approach The developmental cost method, or cost approach, is used primarily where sales are limited and the land is in transition from agricultural useto residential, or if the lotsare not yet fully developed. Income Approach Since there was no data availablefor for the capitalization of ground rents on vacant residential lots, the income approach was not utilized. Market (Sales) Approach Sincethere was an adequate quantity of qualified sales data available, the direct sales comparison approach was doomed the best method in determining the adjusted sales price. The Weld County Assessor's Office has verified that the comparable sales are arms -length transactions based on review of the Real Property Transfer Dedaration, telephone or personal confirmation interviews and physical inspections to confirm property characteristics at the time of sale. Three vacant land sales were found in the area that are comparable based on location, size and physical attributes.

The Assessor's determination of value after review is based on the following: LNO4 - Your land value has been adjusted based on a study of the characteristics of your property. If you disagree with the Assessor's decision, you have the right to appeal to the County Board of Equalization for further consideration, § 39-8-106(1)(a), C.R.S. The deadline for filing real property appeals is July 15. The Assessor establishes property values. The local taxing authorities (county, school district, city, fire protection, and other special districts) set mill levies. The mill levy requested by each taxing authority is based on a projected budget and the property tax revenue required to adequately fund the services it provides to its taxpayers. The local taxing authorities hold budget hearings in the fall. If you are concerned about mill levies, we recommend that you attend these budget hearings. Please refer to last year's tax bill or ask your Assessor for a listing of the local taxing authorities. Please refer to the reverse side of this notice for additional information.

As of June 2012 value of the property was raised again from $ 75,000 to $95,773 which is almost another % 40 raise and that almost adds up to % 110 raise in 2 years from $45,000 to $95,773. We feel this is completely unreasonable given the current economic times which property values especially vacant land values have been continuing to decrease in value. This parcel of vacant land has no improvements, no water, sewer ,electricity ,or other utilities. And being a pie shaped with an almost 32 feet drop in elevation from east to west makes the property very undesirable ,and only about one acre may be usable.

This hearing will be held at the Weld County Administration Building, Assembly Room, 1150 O Street, Greeley, Colorado. You have a right to attend this hearing and present evidence in support of your petition. The Weld County Assessor or his designee will be present. The Board will make its decision on the basis of the record made at the aforementioned hearing, as well as your petition, so it would be in your interest to have a representative present. If you plan to be represented by an agent or an attorney at your hearing, prior to the hearing you shall provide, in writing to the Clerk to the Board's Office, an authorization for the agent or attorney to represent you. If you do not choose to attend this hearing, a decision will still be made by the Board by the close of business on August 5, 2013, and mailed to you on or before August 12, 2013. Because of the volume of cases before the Board of Equalization, most cases shall be limited to 10 minutes. Also due to volume, cases cannot be rescheduled. It is imperative that you provide evidence to support your position. This may include evidence that similar homes in your area are valued less than yours or you are being assessed on improvements you do not have. Please note: The fact that your valuation has increased cannot be your sole basis of appeal. Without documented evidence as indicated above, the Board will have no choice but to deny your appeal. If you wish to obtain the data supporting the Assessor's valuation of your property, please submit a written request directly to the Assessor's Office by fax (970) 304-6433, or if you have questions, call (970) 353-3845. Upon receipt of your written request, the Assessor will notify you of the estimated cost of providing such information.
