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(ics):
RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY IS VALUED BY CONSIDERING THE MARKET APPROACH.
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 determined the
valuation(s)assigned to your property. The reasons for this determination of value are:
YOUR PROPERTY HAS BEEN UNIFOFMLY VALUED FOLLOWING COLORADO LAW AND INSTRUCTIONS
PUBLISHED BY THE STATE DIVISION OF PROPERTY TAXATION. YOUR PROTEST OF VALUE HAS
BEEN DENIED DUE TO COMPARISON OF OTHER SIMILAR PROPERTIES WHICH SOLD DURING THE
1997/1998 TIME PERIOD. THIS COMPARISON SHOWS YOUR ACTUAL PROPERTY VALUE TO BE
CORRECT FOR THAT PERIOD.

Dear Sir or Madam:
Our property is 2NA5-32 L32 BLK5 Northmoor Acres, 2n° filing 20067 Northmoor Drive. Weld county
assessor's has performed what appears to be a incorrect justification on our appraisal increase.
Residential property as listed under the attached notice of denial by Stanley Sessions is not considered
as the correct market approach. We are a RURAL AGRICULTURAL SUBDIVISION not a FtESIDENTIAL
PROPERTY. Our rural agricultural subdivision allows homeowners to have horses, goats, chickens and
turkeys on their acreage. We are surrounded by rural agricultural farmland. The assessments by the
Weld County appraisers reeds to be corrected as WE ARE NOT A RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY.
In 1997 our home assessment from Weld County was $670.51. In 1998 Weld County escalated the
assessment from 1997 ($370.51) to $1203.50. This was a 55.7% increase over and above what it was
previously. In fact this should not have been implemented by Weld county in one year. Due to the short
duration of Weld county requirement for the $1203.50 we ended up getting a loan to pay them.
Traditionally other states raise the percentage over a four year period to the next level. This was a
incorrect approach by Weld county assessors as they were using homes in communities for the
assessment. Again this year Weld County has increased our property evaluation from $154352 to
$158227. We have made absolutely no improvements to our property. Everything is the same as
originally built in 1984. OLr home has already been checked out last year by the Weld County Appraiser.
Just under 4 years ago the dairy farm which previously was located at County Road 13 and Highway 60
sold its property and moved adjacent to our subdivision. This dairy farm has increased its dairy cattle
capacity to over 300+ cattle and is continuing to add cattle. We are experiencing horrid stench from that
dairy farm. Homes that are available in our subdivision when viewed by potential purchasers who see the
dairy farm are turned off on buying a home. Previously before the dairy farm relocated adjacent to us
homes were able to sell within a short time.
People within our subdivision who live on Northmoor Drive which are adjacent to the dairy farm have had
substantial problems trying to sell their property one of which is 20226 Northmoor Drive. Attached are
photo's of the dairy farm adjacent to that residence which is parallel to Northmoor Drive.
Once a person retires it will be impossible to remain in any Colorado state county with the home
assessments being escalated on a yearly basis. There will not be a yearly retirement income increase to
afford paying increased county property assessment taxes. Once we retire in nine years we will not be
able to stay in our residence with the continued property assessment increase.
Sincerely,
CK
