Reichel **** THIS DOCUMENTS WAS FILMED WITH Secretary-Treasurer MARCH 30, 1987, COMMUNICATIONS Bellwether Exploration Co. 600 17th Street, #400-N Denver, CO 80202-0051 RE: Abatement Petition 1985 Real Property Taxes Weld County Schedule #08073600002700001L, 2L, 3L, 08073600001500001L and 2L D.P.T. #62-06-07 through 62-06-11 Dear Mr. Reichel : Please be advised that I have disapproved the above petitions in the amount of $2,482.46 because neither the valuation nor the tax is erroneous or illegal . The Weld County Assessor's Office received your 1985 declaration schedules on April 11 , 1985. The assessor determined the value of your property based upon the information provided by your company. Notices of valuation were mailed to Bellwether Exploration Co. on May 16, 1985. The notices indicated the valuation assigned to your property and advised you of your right to protest the assigned valuation; however, the assessor's records indicate that you did not file a protest during 1985, thereby waiving your statutory remedies. The Colorado Supreme Court pertinently found in Stephens & Co. v. Board of Equalization of the City and County of Denver, 104 Colo. 556 (p. 560 and 561) : " . . . `although it is otherwise where the mistake is made by the taxpayer himself, and is the result of his neglect of some legal duty, or where the facts which would have shown the mistake were within his own possession or within his reach. ' and "So in the instant case it appears from the complaint that the bookkeeper erroneously included in the average valuation of merchandise for a certain twelve-month period merchandise which had never had a taxable situs in the state of Colorado, and merchandise which had been in the state for a period of less than one year from April 1st. This valuation was placed in the tax schedule filed by the taxpayer. No person employed by the taxing agency had any part whatsoever in fixing this valudtion. It was 1313 Sherman Street, 623 Centennial Building, Denver, Colorado 80203 (303) 866-2371 .S cc—yet ) l, , Daniel D. Reichel March 25, 1987 Page 2 the duty of plaintiff in error to file a correct schedule and to know what elements of value and property were listed in that schedule prepared by it. Its failure in that regard was the neglect of a legal duty resting solely upon it. To permit recovery under the facts and circumstances in the instant case would endanger the entire tax structure of the state and lead to a multiplicity of suits for refund of taxes. In reaching the conclusion announced we believe our holding to be in harmony with the great weight of authority. " The Weld County Assessor relied on the information provided by your company to value the property; and because you did not file a protest in June 1985, the valuation is considered to be an overvaluation and abatement is not a remedy. Overvaluation is not the basis for an abatement because overvaluations are capable of adjustment by protesting to the assessor in June before the tax bill is mailed the following January. By May 24 the county assessor must notify the taxpayer in writing if the value of land or improvements increases. The notice must state that the taxpayer has the right to protest the increase in valuation. The protest begins the administrative remedies process . The taxpayer should file a protest with the county assessor between June 1 and June 25 of any year in which there is a concern over the assigned value. The final date to file is June 25. By law, the assessor must respond by the last working day in June. If the taxpayer feels the assessor did not grant adequate relief, an appeal may be filed with the County Board of Equalization (the County Commissioners) , the Board of Assessment Appeals, and, finally, to the District Court of the county wherein the property is situated, if necessary. Each year is considered a new assessment year; and if a taxpayer does not initiate the protest to the assessor in June, administrative remedies are waived and the value becomes the basis of the tax bill the following January. Due to the fact that you did not protest the valuation assigned to your property when you were notified of the 1985 value, you waived your administrative remedies for the 1985 tax bills. I, therefore, disapproved your petition . You have the right to appeal my decision. You may file an appeal with the Board of Assessment Appeals within thirty (30) days from March 25, 1987, which is the date of my disapproval . Appeal forms and instructions may be obtained from: Daniel D.
