The Assessor's determination of value after review is based on the following: AL21 - It will be necessary to physically inspect the parcel. This will be as early as possible. Based upon information obtained during that inspection a decision will be made. 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 deadline for filing personal property appeals is July 20. The Assessor establishes property values. The local taxing authorities (county, school district, city, fire protection, and other special districts) set mill levies.

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.

MEAD CO 80542 Christopher M.Woodruff May 20, 2011 Weld County Assessor 1400 N. 17th Ave. Greeley, CO 80631 Re: Schedule R6847897 Dear Mr.Woodruff: Please be advised that we wish to formally protest the assessed valuation of our property located at 240 Mulligan Lake Dr., Mead, CO 80542. Our analysis of the most comparable sales within our development reflects a value of $516,807 per the attached analysis worksheet. We noted that the finished square footage for our basement was listed in error. The correct finished square footage is 1,995 not 2,493. We have unfinished basement space of 498 sq. ft. You are free to verify this if you wish or we can obtain photos. We feel that to be fairly valued one must preferably take property sales from our development not neighboring horse acreage properties in Singletree or Hunters Cove as comparables. Further, the comparable properties should preferably not contain out buildings, should be sales with finished basements not single level finished home sales, and should contain a similar amount of land. We feel comparable sales exist to meet this criteria in our development of 60+homes and using such reflects most fairly a value of$516,807 as of June 30, 2010 as required. Thank you for your consideration.
