The Assessor's determination of value after review is based on the following: LHO2 - No change has been made to the valuation of this property. Colorado law requires us to send this notice of denial for all properties on which we do not adjust the value. 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.

R3575305 1. The Assessor has failed to give appropriate consideration to all the requisite approaches to valuation in determining the value of the property. 2. The current year actual value assigned by the assessor does not reflect the actual value of the subject property during the 18 month period ending June 30, 2008. 3. Upon consideration of all the approaches to value, values given to comparable land and improvements and upon consideration of the requirements of Colorado law that require that assessments be uniform, just and equitable, a reduction in the current year actual value of this property is warranted. The attached analysis of McIntosh & Associates indicates that the value should be reduced to $144,393.
