Box 758 Greeley Co. 80631 Dear Board Members, Thank you for the opportunity to appeal the Assessor's decision regarding my property taxes located at 207 Commander Cir. Erie, Co. There is a blatant inequity in my surrounding neighborhood regarding the assessed value of land. Larger lots are assessed at a much lower rate than smaller lots. Over the past few years I have appealed my assessment based on the fact that there is an inequity between these larger lots and smaller lots like mine. In 2013, I appealed the assessed value of my land based on this inequity. The assessor's office agreed with me and lowered my assessment. In 2015, I appealed the assessed value of my land again based on this inequity. The assessor's office agreed with me and lowered my assessed value once again. This has been going on since 2008. (Attachment C) In 2015 my land was assessed at $170,000 per acre which I appealed. Assessed values ranged from $95,163 per acre to $121,255 per acre on the larger lots. The assessor agreed and lowered the assessed value of my land to $102,000. (Please see attachment B) Yes, the original assessment was $170,000 and after my appeal the land was lowered to an assessed value of $102,000. In 2017 my land was assessed at $210,000 or $209,371 per acre. Assessed values ranged from $110,759 per acre to $124,724 per acre on the larger lots. (Please see attachment A). I was turned down on my appeal even though it was the exact situation as in 2013 and 2015. When comparing percentages of increases my land assessed valuation increased over 100% per acre in 2017 over my 2015 assessed value of $10,000(2015 -- attachment D). The larger lots increased approximately 10 to 15 per cent. The inequity in 2017 grows even farther. It is our contention that our land is assessed way too high. This has been going on for years and the Assessor's Office in the past has agreed to reduce our assessed value due to this inequity.. The 2017 assessment on my residence (Attachment D) went up over 16% which I feel is correct and consistent with others properties in the neighborhood. The assessment on my land went up over 100%. If the assessment on my land was consistent with other properties and had a 16% increase my land should be assessed at $118,320. I believe my assessment should be $596,439 and not $688,000 based on my land being assessed incorrectly. .A 100% increase in valuation on my land is unexplainable. Respectfully please accept these documents as a basis for our appeal. ft you in ad d r your consideration. na d and Kathleen Piccone Piccone Family Rev Trust 207 Conimander Cir Erie Co. 80516 720-890-0907 A 777,401/Metit /9 - May 11, 2017 Weld County Assessor 1400 N 17th Ave. Greeley Co. 80631 Dear Sir, I am appealing my property valuation based on the fact that my land is valued incorrectly. Attached you will find 4 comparisons of land valuation and valuation per square foot. Valuations of these properties per square foot, based on your valuations, range from $2.53 per foot to $2.96 per square foot. The valuation of 207 Commander Cir is valued at $4.80 per sq foot. All comparisons are in the same neighborhood. Based on these comparisons of your valuations I value my land at $110,000. In each of the last two "REAL PROPERTY NOTICE OF VALUATION" (2015 and 2013) we have appealed the land assessment and appreciate that the Assessor's office agreed with us. This assessment is no different than those two. Respectfully please accept these documents as a basis for our appeal. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

(2) The 2006 assessed value was $106,000 or 47% of original purchase price. (3) Mill levy for 2006 was 85.685. (4) Taxes on the vacant land was $2514.86.. Taxes 2007 01) Purchase price of this vacant land $160,000 in November 2007. (2) Purchase price was $40,000 less than original showing a decline in value due to current market conditions. (3) The 2007 assessed value is $166,080 or 103.7% of purchase price. (4) Mill Levy for 2007 is 85.014 or a decrease of .671 (5) Taxes on the vacant land for 2007 was 4,094.28 As you can see although the value of this land has decreased 40% since the original purchase the assessed value has increased over 66% and the taxes have increased over 62% from 2006 to 2007. In fact, the assessed value is more than the purchase price. 261 Commander Drive Mk 1 Lot 16 Vista Pointe This is a 2 acre lot. Land value is $110,720, assessed value $32,110, and taxes of $2,729.80 per year. Taxes on this property are $1365.00 less than our 1 acre lot. The taxes on this lot in 2006 were $2400.00. Notice the increase from 2006 to 2007. I ERI VP L15 MAU Vista Pointe This is a 2 acre lot. Land value is $110,720, assessed value $32,110, and taxes of $2,729.80 per year. Taxes on this property are $1365.00 less than our 1 acre lot. 173 Commander Cir. Please note the listing history of the lot. This is a 1 acre lot. The price has dropped form the original asking price of $285,000 and is currently on the market at $215,000. This is a reduction of approximately 25%. This shows a decrease in the value of land in our area. 187 Commander Drive Please note the listing history of the lot. This is a 1 acre lot. The price has dropped form the original asking price of $240,000 and is currently on the market at $195,000. This is a reduction of approximately 19%. This shows a decrease in the value of land in our area. 179 Commander Cir. Please note the listing history of the lot. This is a 1 acre lot. The price has dropped form the original asking price of $270,000 and is currently on the market at $205,000. This is a reduction of approximately 24%.

This represents a modest increase of 2.8%. This demonstrates the disparaging difference between the two increases. 196 Commander Cir This house is 3,086 sq ft house on a 65,061 sq ft lot. The taxes for this house on a bigger lot are $3495.78. Taxes on this house and lot are $599.00 less than our lot only. 115 Commander Dr. This house is 2,350 sq ft house on a 87,021 sq ft lot. The taxes for this house on a bigger lot are $2,575.08. Taxes on this house and lot are $1,519 less than our lot only. In conclusion, our lot is the only lot whose assed value is more than the sold price. Values are dropping in this area evidenced by our purchase of $160,000 and the listing histories. Asking prices of lots are going down. Sales are virtually non-existent Please accept these examples as documentation for our contention of property taxes for the vacant land located at 307 Commander Cir. We respectfully request reevaluation of this situation which we feel is an inequity. Thank you for your consideration in advance.

This hearing will be held at the Weld County Administration Building, Assembly Room, 1150 O 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, 2017, 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 obtain the data supporting the Assessor's valuation of your property, please submit a written request directly to the Assessor's Office by fax (970) 304-6433, or if you have questions, call (970) 353-3845.
