RE: Account#'s R3392086, R3917486, 83914486
Board Members:
We are appealing the reclassification of the above mentioned properties from residential
and agricultural zoning to commercial zoning. All of these parcels are owned by Still Farm,
LLC. One of the parcels contains three residential real estate properties which are rental
units. The remainder of the properties are agricultural land with a lake on the property
The lower parcels and the lake area are in the flood zone.
This land has been reclassified by the Weld County Assessor to commercial as of June 30,
2016. There is no commercial use of this property, and there are no revenues generated
from these parcels other than the residential rental units. When the properties were
purchased in 2003 it was made clear to us by staff at Weld County that the LLC would not
be able to allow use of the properties by any person, persons, businesses or clubs for any
recreational purposes. We have strictly adhered to that and have never held any type of
commercial event, leased any of the property for hunting, fishing, water recreation or any
other type of use. The only use of the property is by those individuals who have direct
ownership in the LLC that holds the property. This is not a leased lake situation as you will
find with other similar properties in Weld County.
We respectfully request that these three parcels be reclassified back to their original
agricultural and residential classifications.
Thank you.

RE: THE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION 2017, WELD COUNTY, COLORADO
NOTIFICATION OF HEARING SCHEDULED
Docket #: 2017-2362, AS0097 Appeal #: 2008216903 Hearing Date: 7/31/2017 3:00 PM
Account(s) Appealed:
R3392086
Dear Petitioner(s):
The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of JULY 31, 2017, at or about the
hour of 3:00 PM, to hold a hearing on your valuation for assessment. This hearing will be
held at the Weld County Administration Building, Assembly Room, 1150 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. 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,
BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
