The Assessor has carefully studied all available information, giving particular attention to the
specifics included on your protest. The Assessor's determination of value after review is
based on the following:
AL08 - Your previous value was a partial value reflecting partial completion as of January 1, 2008.
The most current assessment reflects the value of the property as it was on January 1, 2009.
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 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.

To Whom It May Concern:
I wish to better articulate the reasons why I find your appraisal of our property to be unrealistic. I have
included a property recently sold in the area within a couple of miles of our house. As you can see, this
property is quite similar to the one we own. The assessor's office does not have the new owner on their
website yet, but let me tell you this about the property. You have it assessed well below our home at
38209 WCR 29. This home went on the market to sell at $379,000. As you can see, that is $20,000 less
than the owner paid for it. The property values are still falling in this area.
There are some similarities, and some differences as well. Their house is mostly finished upstairs and
downstairs. Our home has a totally unfinished basement. Their house was built in 2004, ours was built
in the 1970's. They have 2 outbuildings. We have no outbuildings. They have 6 acres whereas we only
have 4.
I beg you to reconsider the taxes on our home. It simply is not worth more than this other property on
County Road 27.
Thank you once again for your time.
Best Regards,
Christina Betz

Dear Petitioner(s):
The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of July 31, 2009, at or about the hour of
11:15 AM, to hold a hearing on your valuation for assessment. This hearing will be held at the Weld
County Centennial Center, First Floor Hearing Room, 915 10th 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, 2009, and mailed to
you on or before August 12, 2009.
Because of the volume of cases before the Board of Equalization, all cases shall be limited to 15
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. Payment must be made prior to the Assessor providing such
information, at which time the Assessor will make the data available within three (3) working days,
subject to any confidentiality requirements.
