The Assessor's determination of value after review is based on the following: The Assessor staff has requested additional information to properly review your property's value. Because we have not received this information, we have no choice but to deny any adjustments. If you disagree with the Assessor's decision, you have the right to appeal to the County Board of Equalization for further consideration, § 39-8-106(1)(a), C.R.S. The deadline for filing real property appeals is July 15. The Assessor establishes property values. The local taxing authorities (county, school district, city, fire protection, and other special districts) set mill levies. The mill levy requested by each taxing authority is based on a projected budget and the property tax revenue required to adequately fund the services it provides to its taxpayers. The local taxing authorities hold budget hearings in the fall. If you are concerned about mill levies, we recommend that you attend these budget hearings. Please refer to last year's tax bill or ask your Assessor for a listing of the local taxing authorities. Please refer to the reverse side of this notice for additional information.

In view of conditions existing in the retail sector on June 30, 2020, renewal or extension of those leases was, at best, uncertain. The potential loss of the three tenants and the unlikelihood of quickly finding new tenants for those buildings had a significant negative effect on the value of the shopping center as of June 30, 2021. i Grouped by GL Entity Bldg Status All Summary Rent Roll Report Date 12/31/2020 GLA Bldg Id Suite Id Sqft 112480 Greeley Commons 112480 Greeley Commons 112480 00001 112480 00002 112480 00003 112480 00004 112480 00005 112480 00006, 112480 00007 112480 00008 112480 00009 112480 00010 112480 00011 112480 00012 Building Totals 112480 Total Annual Current Annual I Lease Occupant Name Base PSF Base Rent Commencemen Expiration 6,273 O'Reilly Auto Pan 20 57 129,036 00 01/01/17 12/31/21 27,974 Bed Bath & Beyoi 11 75 328,719 96 02/01/16 01/31/21 11,178 Big 5 Sporting Gc 14 82 165,685 92 01/01/19 01/31/21 21,323 Michaels 12 24 260,925 00 03/01/20 02/28/25 15,295 Petco 16 04 245,301 24 02/01/16 01/31/21 4,152 America's Best C 15 92 66,099 84 11/01/19 10/31/24 21,236 Sprouts Farmers 17 70 375,877 20 07/21/09 03/31/25 8,565 Vacant 11,500 Old Navy 15 00 172,500 00 09/06/18 09/30/28 5,302 Buffalo Wild Win 29 28 155,242 56 07/01/20 06/30/25 1,620 Sport Clips 22 14 35,864 64 12/01/17 11/30/22 4,400 JPMorgan Chase 25 71 113,135 04 05/01/08 09/30/25 138,818 12 Suites The Poe Law Office LLC 7872 S.
