Dear Petitioner:
On the day indicated above, the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County Colorado

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. Section 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, 2016, MUST comply with the
following provisions of C.R.S. Section 39-8-107(5):
(5)(a)(I) On and after August 10, 2011, 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 section 39-8-108(1) or a denial of an abatement of taxes pursuant to section 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.

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 30th, 2016. 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 30th, 2016. When appropriate, all sales are to be time adjusted to
the appraisal date of June 30th, 2016.
Although the appraisal date is June 30, 2016, the physical characteristics are reflective of the property as
of January 1, 2017.
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 the property as of June 30th, 2016 is:
Assessors Indicated Value
RESIDENTIAL $412,119
TOTAL: $412,119
Page 3 of 7
Time Adjusted Sales Prices
By law, sales prices are time adjusted to the appraisal date of June 30, 2015. An adjustment for time is made if
during the sales collection period of January 2015 to June 30, 2016 the sale prices of properties have appreciated or
depreciated due to inflation or deflation. We refer to the adjustment as a `time' adjustment, although it is market
conditions that are changing over time that creates the need for the adjustment. If market conditions have not
changed, no adjustment is required even though considerable time may have elapsed. { C.R. 5. 39-1-104 ...said level
of value shall be adjusted to the final day of the data -gathering period.}
Sales and resales of the same or similar properties are a good indication of the changes in market conditions over
time. In addition, we run simple linear regression where we graph the sales and the month the sale occurred to
indicate the trend of the market. This trend is tracked as a monthly rate of change. Since we consider one of the most
important aspects of market value to be location, we determine our time trends by location, also known as economic
area or neighborhood, and by the use of the property (vacant land, residential, commercial).
This neighborhood had 151 sales and indicates a time adjustment of .556 per month.

To whom it may concern:
This is the second letter I have written disputing the Assessor's valuation of
my property. I am still in dispute of this amount. I need you to provide a copy of the
Colorado law you claim to have used to place a value on my property. I will also
require a listing of at least 10 properties that you claim are similar to mine and sold
during 2015/2016 time period. This is certainly not an unreasonable request The
burden of proof of what you are claiming lies with your office. It is unrealistic to
claim that the value on our property has increased by over $100,000.00 in this short
period of time, thus this will need to be clearly proven. I am exercising my right to
appeal for further consideration. Please find the completed Notice of Determination
enclosed.

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. 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,
