Lamm Governor + : MAR � q 1985 TO: Weld County Commissioners - _ FROM: Mary Anne Maurer; ay�,� Property Tax Administrat r RE: Weld County Report to State Board of Equalization on State Board of Equalization - Ordered Reappraisal Progress DATE: March 4, 1985 MEMORANDUM Enclosed is a copy of your assessor' s first two progress reports on the progress of the reappraisal . I am also sending you a copy of the division field supervisor' s reports for the same period of time. The summary report for the period ending February 15, 1985, as submitted by the division to the state board, reads: Weld County (Commercial Property) Bud Wardrip, OPT supervisor for Weld County, feels that the overall picture looks much better now. He is watching the county' s progress with the reappraisal very closely. As of January 11, 12.5% of the cost approach was completed and 29% of the time had elapsed, without considering the application and reconcililation of market and income values. Manpower requirements were revised by the OPT reappraisal supervisor. Weld County needs 6 additional FTE ' s in order to complete the reappraisal on time. Kenneth Smith, acting on a motion of the Board, advised the assessor and commissioners on January 16 that additional staff must be hired at once or the reappraisal will be contracted to an outside firm. By February 15, the assessor had hired six more appraisers so that there are 14 persons assigned to the reappraisal . Land values are 50% complete. Market data research and analysis is 75-85% finished. The cost approach is 40% complete. Only a minimal amount of work has been done on data gathering for the income approach. cc: Weld County Assessor Encl . 850587 1313 Sherman Street, 623 Centennial Building, Denver, Colorado 80203 (303) 866-2371/2375 OFFICE OF WELD COUNTY ASSESSOR HERBERT H.HANSEN COUNTY ASSESSOR ie DOROTHY M.ALLEN DEPUTY Will PHONE(303)356-4000.

Lamm Mary Anne Maurer Property Tax Administrator Weld County Assessor and Weld County Commissioners 915 - 10th Street Greeley, CO 80631 Gentlemen: We received your first monthly report on January 11, 1985, of the progress of your reappraisal effort. Having reviewed the report and analyzed your progress to date, we are concerned. There is not sufficient time between now and May 24 to complete our ordered reappraisal of commercial and industrial property in Weld County if your work effort continues at its current level . By State Board order, the reappraisal must be completed and notices of E{ valuation mailed no later than May 24. No exceptions to this date will be allowed. The state board provided the counties the opportunity to conduct the reappraisal under the supervision of the state board in order to show a good faith effort to work with you, to provide a learning experience for your employees, and to lessen the expense to your taxpayers. The alternative would be to have the reappraisal conducted by an outside firm. • You must now determine the additional number of part-time employees • needed and must make arrangements for the reappraisal 's timely completion. If this is not accomplished forthwith, we will have no alternative than to have the Property Tax Administrator contract to have an outside appraisal fine complete the reappraisal by May 24, 1985. If this action is necessary, the county will be charged for this reappraisal . Very truly yours, c 7 1�Wt-LG i l : Kenneth D.

A1/a0 1313 Sherman Street, 623 Centennial Building, Denver, Colorado 80203 (303) 866.237112375 ( OVERALL COUNTY PROGRESS AND PROJECTIONS The progress, up to this reporting period, indicates the present number of appraisers will not complete the reap- praisal as ordered. As of January 11th 13.5% of the cost approach has been completed and 29% of the time has elapsed, without considering the application and reconciliation of market and income values. (See Exhibit #1 Attached) . Mary Anne Maurer asked me to revise the manpower requirements estimate on the commercial and industrial properties that remain to be revalued. The result of the revision indi- cates; Feb. 4 to April 30 or 62 working days = 16.2 Apprs. Feb. 4 to May 10 or 70 working days = 14.4 Apprs. Feb. 4 to May 17 or 75 working days = 13.4 Apprs. The above estimate is based on hiring and training the required number of experienced people to be productive by February 4th, 1985.
