COST APPROACH
LAND VALUE
Sales utilized to establish the value in the subject neighborhood are from 2003 and the first six
months of 2004 for the 2006 assessment date. The comparative sales approach is the most reliable
method of land valuation. Pursuant to 39-104-(10.2) (c) C. R. S., the Assessor may utilize sales from
July 1999 through June of 2004 to establish the proper value, if sufficient information is not available
in the prior 18 months. Also, comparables outside the subject property area may be used. The Weld
County Assessor has an established ongoing sales confirmation and validation program for property
transactions used in developing value.
The subject is a corner lot with a land size of 21,528 square feet. The subject parcel is
valued at $8.25 per square foot.

Dear Petitioner(s):
The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of August 1, 2006, at or about the hour of
10:20 AM,to hold a hearing on your valuation for assessment. This hearing will be held at the Weld
County Department of Planning Services, Conference Room, 918 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 August4, 2006, and
mailed to you on or before August 11, 2006.
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.
Please advise me if you decide not to keep your appointment as scheduled. If you need any
additional information, please call me at your convenience.
