Arapahoe County extends deadline on Notices of Determination
Commissioners approve extension due to large number of protests
On Tuesday, June 27 the Arapahoe County Board of Commissioners elected to use the alternate/extend protest procedure for the tax year 2023 protests. This election allows the Assessor’s Office to get the Notices of Determination to residents through Aug. 15, instead of the original deadline of June 30.
Arapahoe County has received 30,772 property valuation protests this year. Single family homes saw a valuation increase over 40%, leading to the record number of protests. The decision by the Board will enable the Assessor’s Office additional time to evaluate the unprecedented number of protests. Below are the total number of protests received in the last five years:
- 2023 Total Appeals 30,772 (Reappraisal Year)
- 2022 Total Appeals 995 (Intervening Year)
- 2021 Total Appeals 4,589 (Reappraisal Year)
- 2020 Total Appeals 2,545 (Intervening Year)
- 2019 Total Appeals 9,040 (Reappraisal Year)
With the election to use the alternate protest procedure, the County Board of Equalization hearings will now begin after Aug. 15 and may continue through the end of October.
