The subject is a frame aluminum residential improvement constructed in 1996. It has 1,510
square feet of finished living area above grade. There is 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. The

former gravel mine that is now in the process of being reclaimed. There is also a 7.89 acre
parcel that was not part of the mining operation. All the improvements are located on this
parcel.
The assessor's staff completed a physical inspection (exterior only) on August 25th, 2020.
Market Approach Summary
The subject property has been classified as Residential for assessment purposes. Residential property
value shall be determined solely by consideration of the Market Approach to Value {39-1-103(5)(a),
CRS
As required by 39-1-104(10.2), CRS, the market value is determined by utilizing data from the period of
one and one-half years immediately prior to June 3 0th, 2020. If sufficient comparable valuation data is
not available within the eighteen -month time period, the assessor shall use market data from the five
year period immediately prior to June 3 0th, 2020. When appropriate, all sales are to be time adjusted to
the appraisal date of June 30th, 2 02 0.
Although the appraisal date is June 30, 2020, the physical characteristics are reflective of the property as
of January 1, 2021.
The comparable sales in this report were selected using county records and the Multiple Listing Services.
The Weld County Assessor's Office has verified that the comparable sales are arms -length transactions
based on review of the Real Property Transfer Declaration, telephone or personal confirmation
interviews and physical inspections to confirm property characteristics at the time of sale.
DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE: The most probable price, as of a specified date, in cash, or in terms
equivalent to cash, or in other precisely revealed terms, for which the specified property rights should
sell after reasonable exposure in a competitive market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, with
the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and for self interest, and assuming that
neither is under undue duress. {The Appraisal Institute}
The market value of all three properties as of June 30th, 2020 is a total value of:

Final Reconciliation
For non -buildable land, the value was set at a minimal land value ($500/acre). For that
portion of land that is buildable, the value was established using market sales of
property with similar usable space.
The outbuilding improvements were valued on a cost basis and depreciated
accordingly.
The residential improvement was valued using a market driven cost approach.
Residences built within an outbuilding are unique and the sales of those tend to be
scarce. The value was derived by calculating the replacement cost new, then
depreciating the improvement to account for it's age. That value is then given an
economic adjustment based on sales of all residential improvements in this area.

The Assessor has carefully studied all available information, giving particular attention to the
specifics included on your protest. The Assessor's determination of value after review is based on
the following:
Your property has been uniformly valued following Colorado law. Your protest of value has been
denied due to comparison of other similar properties which sold during the Jan 2019 to June 2020
time period.
If you disagree with the Assessor's decision, you have the right to appeal to theCounty
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.

COMMISSIONERS
The classification of the above 3 accounts is in dispute. Weld Assesor identifies them as
residential, while Weld Planning identifies them as AG -Waste -Land -4167, The
identification of 552, 553 is the issue, however the land value associated with 551 is
extremely inaccurate due to the existence of the Boyd and Freeman ditch and its
easement which encompasses approximately 75% of 551 land mass. The assessed value
of 551 land should be reduced 75% dating back to 2011. The inception and creation of
the associated Recorded Exemption was and is a cruel and heinous offense to Weld
County's agricultural values. I am not available 7/27/2021 for docket 2021-2006,

Dear Petitioner(s):
The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of July 27, 2021, at or about the hour of 1:00
PM, to hold a hearing on your valuation for assessment. This hearing will be held at the Weld
County Administration Building, Assembly Room, 1150 0 Street, Greeley, Colorado.
You have a right to attend this hearing and present evidence in support of your petition. The Weld
County Assessor or his designee will be present. The Board will make its 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 5, 2021, and mailed to
you within five (5) business days.
Because of the volume of cases before the Board of Equalization, most cases shall be limited to 10
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.
If you wish to discuss your value with the Assessor's Office, please call them at (970) 400-3650. If
you wish to obtain the data supporting the Assessor's valuation of your property, please submit a
written request directly to the Assessor's Office by emailing assessor@weldgov.com or sending a
fax to (970) 304-6433. Upon receipt of your written request, the Assessor will notify you of the
estimated cost of providing such information. Payment must be made prior to the Assessor
providing such information, at which time the Assessor will make the data available within three (3)
working days, subject to any confidentiality requirements.
Please advise me if you decide not to keep your appointment as scheduled. If you need any
additional information, please call me at your convenience.
Very truly yours,

A denial of a petition, in whole or in part, by the Board of Equalization must be appealed within thirty (30)
days of the date the denial is mailed to you. You must select only one of the following three (3)
options for appeal:
1. Appeal to Board of Assessment Appeals: You have the right to appeal the County Board of

will be the last time you may present testimony or exhibits or other evidence, or call witnesses in
support of your valuation. If the decision of the Board of Assessment Appeals is further appealed to
the Court of Appeals pursuant to C.R.S. §39-8-108(2), only the record of proceedings from your
hearing before the Board of Assessment Appeals and your legal brief are filed with the appellate
court.
All appeals to the Board of Assessment Appeals filed after August 10, 2021, MUST comply with the
following provisions of C.R.S. §39-8-107(5):
(5)(a)(I) On and after August 10, 2021, in addition to any other requirements under law, any petitioner

pursuant to C.R.S. §39-8-108(1) or a denial of an abatement of taxes pursuant to C.R.S. §39-10-114 shall
provide to the County Board of Equalization or to the Board of County Commissioners of the County in the
case of an abatement, and not to the Board of Assessment Appeals, the following information, if applicable:
(A) Actual annual rental income for two full years including the base year for the relevant property tax year;
(B) Tenant reimbursements for two full years including the base year for the relevant property tax year;
(C) Itemized expenses for two full years including the base year for the relevant property tax year; and

County, as applicable, shall, upon request made by the petitioner, provide to a petitioner who has filed an
appeal with the Board of Assessment Appeals not more than ninety days after receipt of the petitioner's
request, the following information:
(A) The primary method used by the county to determine the value of the subject property; and
(B) The rates used by the county to determine the value of the subject property under the method identified
in accordance with subsection (5)(b)(I)(A) of this section.
(II) The party providing the information to the petitioner pursuant to subparagraph (I) of this paragraph (b)
shall redact all confidential information contained therein.
(c) If a petitioner fails to provide the information required by subparagraph (I) of paragraph (a) of this
subsection (5) by the deadline specified in subparagraph (II) of said paragraph (a), the County may move
the Board of Assessment Appeals to compel disclosure and to issue appropriate sanctions for
noncompliance with such order. The motion may be made directly by the County Attorney and shall be
accompanied by a certification that the County Assessor or the County Board of Equalization has in good
faith conferred or attempted to confer with such petitioner in an effort to obtain the information without action
by the Board of Assessment Appeals. If an order compelling disclosure is issued under this paragraph (c)
and the petitioner fails to comply with such order, the Board of Assessment Appeals may make such orders
in regard to the noncompliance as are just and reasonable under the circumstances, including an order
dismissing the action or the entry of a judgment by default against the petitioner. Interest due the taxpayer
shall cease to accrue as of the date the order compelling disclosure is issued, and the accrual of interest
shall resume as of the date the contested information has been provided by the taxpayer.

3. Binding Arbitration: You have the right to submit your case to binding arbitration. If you choose this
option, the arbitrator's decision is final and you have no further right to appeal your current
valuation. C.R.S. §39-8-108.5 governs this process. The arbitration process involves the following:
a. Select an Arbitrator: You must notify the Board of Equalization within 30 days that you will
pursue arbitration. You and the Board of Equalization will select an arbitrator from the official
list of qualified people. If you cannot agree on an arbitrator, the District Court of the county in
which the property is located (i.e. Weld) will select the arbitrator.
b. Arbitration Hearing Procedure: Arbitration hearings are held within sixty (60) days from the
date the arbitrator is selected, and are set by the arbitrator. Both you and the Board of
Equalization are entitled to participate in the hearing. The hearing is informal. The arbitrator
has the authority to issue subpoenas for witnesses, books, records documents and other
evidence pertaining to the value of the property. The arbitrator also has the authority to
administer oaths, and determine all questions of law and fact presented to him. The
arbitration hearing may be confidential and closed to the public if you and the Board of
Equalization agree. The arbitrator's decision must be delivered personally or by registered
mail within ten (10) days of the arbitration hearing.
c. Fees and Expenses: The arbitrator's fees and expenses are agreed upon by you and the
Board of Equalization. In the case of residential real property, the fees may not exceed
$150.00 per case. For cases other than residential real property, the arbitrator's total fees
and expenses are agreed to by you and Board of Equalization, but are paid by the parties as
ordered by the arbitrator.
