Dear Petitioner(s):
The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of July 24,2003,at or about the hour of 2:30
PM, to hold a hearing on your valuation for assessment. This hearing will be held at the Weld
County Department of Public Health and Environment,Room 210,1555 North 17th Avenue,
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 5,2003, and
mailed to you on or before August 12, 2003.
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 request
it directly from the Assessor's Office by fax (970) 304-6433, or by calling (970) 353-3845.
