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.

We believe a "fair" assessed value of the property should be $431,460.00 - an 8.2%
decrease of $38,000 from $470,000, the 2007 sales price.
On 12/12/05, the property sold for $433,700. On 06/29/07, the property sold for
$470,000.
Property assessed value:
2005 $ 66,060
2006 $408,067 (agriculture to residential)
2007 $503,283 (unknown 23.33% increase)
2008 $503,283
2009 $477,492 (proposed 5.38% decrease)
Report - May 5, 2009, Colorado State University's Everitt Real Estate Center - "Greeley -
Evans prices fell 8.2% from 2007-08, the largest decline in Northern Colorado." The
Greeley Tribune, Wednesday, May 6, 2009.
In our opinion, the 2007 assessed value of $503,283 was totally out of line and cannot
be substantiated, as it was significantly greater than the market (sales) value of the
property at any point in time.
After we purchased the property, we contacted the Assessor's Office to remedy the
assessment. We were told that we could not do anything until the 2009 assessment
period. We are currently trying to rectify a wrong that the previous owners did not
address.
Footnote: Our CitiMortgage refinance, effective 7-1-09, has estimated our current home
value at $368,281.

Dear Petitioner(s):
The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of July 31, 2009, at or about the hour of
9:30 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.
