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. c 15-DPT-AR PR 207-08108 NOD!! 3185 APPEAL PROCEDURES County Board of Equalization Hearings will be held from July 1 through August 5 at 915 10th Street, Greeley, CO To appeal the Assessor's decision, complete the Petition to the County Board of Equalization shown below, and mail or deliver a copy of both sides of this form to: WELD COUNTY BOARD OF EQUALIZATION 915 10T" Street, P.O.

In my request to the assessor, I had identified two things. 1. The first mistake I had identified was that my house is a 4 bedroom house, mistakenly identified by the assessor as a 5 bedroom house. 2. The second point that I had made to him was that there are at least 5 houses of the same model with exactly the same base floor -plan in my immediate neighborhood (Chart 1). Many of these houses had added amenities and they sold for a higher price than my house when initially purchased. Many of these houses have had additional improvements made to them, yet their valuation is lower than the purchase price of their houses. My house had had no improvement made to the structure or additions. Yet, my house appraised higher than any of the other houses — which I believe is wrong. Based on this data set, and taking the average delta between the properties I would request that you appraise my house at $ 383,582.

These were all Gilpin designs by DR Horton. Based on the option selected, the purchase price shown and vary from $408,200 to $444,400 when purchased (Column C) in 2004. My house (r380 Reliance PI) was purchased at $411,900 — the second lowest price among the 5 houses. I have had no improvements made to my house. Column D identifies the most recent appraised value of the 5 houses. Some of these houses have had improvements made since 2005. Not only are they the same model, some of these other houses also have Greenbelt access. But how is my house — with no improvements — appraised higher than all of them? Column E shows the delta between the appraised price and the purchase price. Again, note that only my house has been erroneously shown to have a much higher valuation than any of the other same model houses. Just to prove the illogic of the valuation, I have also included 5 other houses that are in my immediate vicinity. Each of them is valued lower than the sale price — except mine. Inclusions — 1.
