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:
CM05 - The law requires that data from Jan 2013 to June 2014 be used to establish current values.
We have considered all three approaches to value and we have denied your appeal based upon this
data.
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.

I have quickly reviewed three accounts your company has filed CBOE hearing on.
80179594 BSC Del Camino LLC 30,032 sq. ft. office, R&D, and manufacturing building
84699107 Richie Bros Properties Inc 71,373 sq. ft. three building on 65.5 acres equipment
auction house
R6783782 Pacifico Real Estate Holdings 18,951 sq, ft. Lexus Dealership bit, 2013, will be
requesting actual construction costs
In the past you have requested Administrative Denial at the CBOE level. This allow us to fully analyze the
appeal and potentially reach a settlement, as well as preserving your right to file on the State Board of
Assessment Appeals. Are you willing to do this on these three account?
Thanks

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:
CM05 - The law requires that data from Jan 2013 to June 2014 be used to establish current values.
We have considered all three approaches to value and we have denied your appeal based upon this
data
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.

RE: THE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION 2016, WELD COUNTY, COLORADO
NOTIFICATION OF HEARING SCHEDULED
Docket #: 2016-2295, AS0094 Appeal #: 2008211217 Hearing Date: 8/4/2016 10:00 AM
Account(s) Appealed:
R6783782
Dear Petitioner(s):
The Weld County Board of Equalization has set a date of AUGUST 4, 2016, at or about the
hour of 10:00 AM, 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, 2016, 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
Esther E. Gesick
Clerk to the Board
Weld County Board of County Commissioners
cc: Christopher Woodruff, Assessor
