ACTUAL VALUE AFTER ,, REVIEW .. • `' RESIDENTIAL 223,056 223,056 TOTAL $223,056 $223,056 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: AL01 - Your property has been uniformly valued following Colorado law. Your protest of value has been denied due to comparison of other similar properties which sold during the 2007/2008 time period. 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.

My estim9te of value at June 30, 2008 is approximately $200,000.00, and if I would have had my place for sale during the time of consideration I doubt very mech if I could have gotten it sold for that amount. This is especially true be- cause of gas prices that got to an average of almost $4.00 per gallon. The homes up for sale out this far came about mainly because of commuting expense, and none of them had good luck in getting sold. Even after price reductions &- sizeable number of them still did not €et sold. It is too expensive to drive approximately 50 miles one way at $4.00 per gallon of gas or prices close to that to get to work every day. I was fortunate and still am to be retired or I would have self out at whatever I could get and it would have occurred before June 2008. Another important factor about my property is that I ' have to maintainke1/2 mile of a public right-of-way to get to a county maintained road. Keeping it graveled is not a cheap operation. Also, if I wouldn't have invested in a caterpillar tractor quite a few years back I would be snow bound every time we get a snow storm that amounts to anything. In closing Imust"state that an increase of almost 14% is utterly rediculous. Numbers are being picked from the air. S ncerely AveteP PS Gern B.

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.
