A denial of a petition, in whole or in part, by the Board of Equalization may be appealed by
selecting one of the following three options; however, said appeal must be filed within 30 days of
the notice of denial:
1. Board of Assessment Appeals: You have the right to appeal the County Board
of Equalization's (CBOE's) decision to the Board of Assessment Appeals (BAA).
Such hearing is the final hearing at which testimony, exhibits, or any other
evidence may be introduced. If the decision of the BAA is further appealed to
the Court of Appeals, only the record created at the BAA hearing shall be the
basis for the Court's decision. No new evidence can be introduced at the Court
of Appeals. (Section 39-8-108(10), C.R.S.)
Appeals to the BAA must be made on forms furnished by the BAA, and such
appeals should be mailed or delivered within thirty (30) days of denial by the
CBOE to:
Board of Assessment Appeals
1313 Sherman Street, Room 315
Denver, CO 80203
Phone: 303-866-5880
Fees: A taxpayer representing himself is not charged for the first two appeals to
the Board of Assessment Appeals; however, a taxpayer being represented by an
agent or an attorney must submit a fee of $101.25 per appeal.
OR
2. District Court: You have the right to appeal the CBOE's decision to the District
Court of the county wherein your property is located. New testimony, exhibits or
any other evidence may be introduced at the District Court hearing. For filing
requirements, please contact your attorney or the Clerk of the District Court.
Further appeal of the District Court's decision is made to the Court of Appeals for
a review of the record. (Section 39-8-108(1), C.R.S.)
OR
3. Binding Arbitration: You have the right to submit your case to arbitration. If
you choose this option the arbitrator's decision is final and your right to appeal
your current valuation ends. (Section 39-8-108.5, C.R.S.)
Selecting the Arbitrator: In order to pursue arbitration, you must notify the
CBOE of your intent. You and the CBOE select an arbitrator from the official list
of qualified people. If you cannot agree on an arbitrator, the District Court of the
county in which the property is located will make the selection.
Arbitration Hearing Procedure: Arbitration hearings are held within sixty days
from the date the arbitrator is selected. Both you and the CBOE are entitled to
participate. The hearings are informal. The arbitrator has the authority to issue
subpoenas for witnesses, books, records, documents and other evidence. He
2009-2163
AS0073

also has the power to administer oaths, and all questions of law and fact shall be
determined by him.
The arbitration hearing may be confidential and closed to the public, upon mutual
agreement. The arbitrator's written decision must be delivered to both parties
personally or by registered mail within ten (10) days of the hearing. Such
decision is final and not subject to review.
Fees and Expenses: The arbitrator's fees and expenses are agreed upon by
you and the CBOE. In the case of residential real property, such fees and
expenses cannot exceed $150.00 per case. The arbitrator's fees and expenses,
not including counsel fees, are to be paid as provided in the decision.

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:
CM05 - The law requires that all of 2007 and the first 6 months of 2008 data be used to establish
current values. We have considered all (3) three approaches to value in arriving at your current
valuation. We have denied your appeal based upon this data.
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 the Board:
In my capacity as a Colorado attorney (Registration #16772) I have been engaged by the Owner
of the above referenced property (the 'Property"), to review the actual value assigned by the
Assessor's office to the Property for the purpose of determining if the value assigned to the
Property by the Assessor's office accurately reflects the actual value of the Property on the
applicable valuation date.
The Property was purchased on October 10, 2003 for $950,000. The NOI of the Property
for 2008 was negative for the fifth straight year. The cumulative negative NOI for the
Property from the time of purchase through 1/1/09 is in excess of $1,800,000, not including
the property taxes as an operating expense or other carrying costs to the owner.
Based upon the actual income and expenses of the Property during the eighteen month base
period, the Property should not be valued in excess of $1,600,000. The Property has
averaged over 70%vacancy from the time of purchase through the present, averaged
50.15% vacancy from 1/1/07 through 1/1/09 and was 36.09% vacant on 6/30/08. The
vacant land parcel was acquired to provide additional parking to the primary parcel and
should be valued as a tie back parcel to the main parcel.
It is apparent that this Property is eroding in value over time, due to the chronic vacancy
and inability to begin generating positive NOI.
Therefore, we respectfully request that the valuation of the Property be reduced accordingly.
Sincerely,
n
Dan R. Bartholomew

The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of July 31, 2009, at or about the hour of
5:00 PM, 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.
