The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of Thursday, July 27, 1995, at or about the
hour of 10:30 A.M., to hold a hearing on your valuation for assessment. This hearing will be held
at the Weld County Centennial Center, 915 10th Street, Greeley, Colorado, in the First Floor
Hearing Room.
You have a right to attend this hearing and present evidence in support of your petition. The Weld
County Assessor will be present before the Board. The Board will make their 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 10, 1995, and
mailed to you on or before August 16, 1995.
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.
At least two (2) working days prior to your hearing the Assessor will have available, at your request,
the data supporting his valuation of your property.

The appraised value of property is based on the appropriate consideration of the approaches to value required by law. The Assessor has determined
that your property should be included in the following category(ies):
RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY IS VALUED BY CONSIDERING THE MARKET APPROACH.
AGRICULTURAL LAND VALUE IS DETERMINED SOLELY BY THE EARNING OR PRODUCTIVE
CAPACITY OF THE LAND, CAPITALIZED AT A RATE SET SY LAW.
ALL OTHER PROPERTY, INCLUDING VACANT LAND, IS VALUED BY CONSIDERING THE COST,
MARKET, AND INCOME APPROACHES.
If your concern is the amount of your property tax, local taxing authorities (county, city, fire protection, and other special districts) hold
budget hearings in the fall. Please refer to your tax bill or ask your Assessor for a listing of these districts, and plan to attend these budget hearings.
The Assessor has carefully studied all available information, giving particular attention to the specifics included on your protest and has deter-
mined the valuation(s) assigned to your property. The reasons for this determination of value are:
THE ACTUAL VALUATION OF YOUR PROPERTY HAS BEEN ADJUSTED BASED UPON
MARKET SALES INFORMATION.

Re: Protest of Assessor Evaluation
Tax Area Code 0815, Schedule No. 130908000014
NOTICE OF APPEAL
A. Enclosed please find the timely filed Notice of Appeal
of the determination of the County Assessor to the Weld County
Board of Equalization.
B. The property value being appealed is the farm residence
in the above referenced Tax Code area and Schedule Number located
in the South 1/2, Northwest 1/4, Section 8, 2 North, Range 66
West, of the 6th P.M.
C. The valuation placed on the property by the Assessor is
$46,266.00.
D. The owner is unaware of the grounds upon which the
Assessor relied to justify such a valuation. It is the owner's
understanding that the Assessor must use a market value approach,
however, it is unknown whether the Assessor utilized a market
value approach, and if so, what comparables were used by the
Assessor to arrive at the determination in this case.
E. Enclosed please find the Notice of Adjustment of the
Weld County Assessor dated May 19, 1995.
F. The actual value of the property is $35,000.00.
G. The Assessor, in arriving at a fair market value for
the improvements and the residence on the property has obviously
included some value for the agricultural real estate surrounding
and under the improvements. The value of theagriculturalreal

estate has previously been set at $33,465.00. The additional
valuation of the agricultural real estate under and adjacent to
the improvements would result in double taxation. The value of
the improvements alone, as they must be valued under the law, is
approximately $35,000.00. The improvements consist of a moderate
wood frame house that is 40 to 50 years old and used for housing
farm employees. The improvements are an integral part of the
surrounding land and the total farm operation for Sakata Farms.
