$207,392 $78,142
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
Equalization's decision to the Colorado Board of Assessment Appeals. A hearing before that Board
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, 2019, MUST comply with the
following provisions of C.R.S. §39-8-107(5):
(5)(a)(I) On and after August 10, 2019, in addition to any other requirements under law, any petitioner
appealing either a valuation of rent -producing commercial real property to the Board of Assessment Appeals
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
(D) Rent roll data, including the name of any tenants, the address, unit, or suite number of the subject
property, lease start and end dates, option terms, base rent, square footage leased, and vacant space for
two full years including the base year for the relevant property tax year.
(II) The petitioner shall provide the information required by subparagraph (I) of this paragraph (a) within
ninety days after the appeal has been filed with the Board of Assessment Appeals.
(b)(I) The Assessor, the County Board of Equalization, or the Board of County Commissioners of the
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) All of the underlying data used by the county in calculating the value of the subject property that is being
appealed, including the capitalization rate for such property; and
(B) The names of any commercially available and copyrighted publications used in calculating the value of
the subject property.
(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.
Appeals to the Board of Assessment Appeals must be made on forms furnished by that Board, and must be
mailed or delivered within thirty (30) days of the date the denial by the Board of Equalization is mailed to
you.

must pay a fee of $101.25 per appeal.
OR
2. Appeal to District Court: You have the right to appeal the decision of the Board of Equalization to the
District Court of the county wherein your property is located: in this case that is Weld County District
Court. A hearing before The District Court 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 District Court is
further appealed to the Court of Appeals pursuant to C.R.S. §39-8-108(1), the rules of Colorado
appellate review and C.R.S. §24-4-106(9), govern the process.
OR
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 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 fess 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.

Very truly yours,
BOARD OF EQUALIZATION

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:
AL21 - It will be necessary to physically inspect the parcel. This will be done as early as possible.
Please carry appeal to the CBOE. Our decision will be made prior to the hearing.
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.
