2 Survival of Districts in a Poor Economy: The Impact of Foreclosures and Declining Property Values on Special Districts September 16, 2011 Seter & Vander Wall, P.C. 2
3 Foreclosures and declining property values are taking their toll on special districts. The Counties preliminary abstracts of assessed valuations are being released for the new assessment cycle. Many districts find themselves faced with increased foreclosures and declining property valuations, without any decrease in the cost of operations. How do Colorado special districts survive in these unique, yet increasingly more common circumstances? This session will explore special district options and limitations in learning how to survive these new economic times. September 16, 2011 Seter & Vander Wall, P.C. 3

6 How Did We Get Here? Assessed valuations are based on the real estate values as of June 30, These valuations form the 2011 tax base for special districts for operations in These valuations will endure for 2 years until the next assessment cycle which impacts September 16, 2011 Seter & Vander Wall, P.C. 6
7 Value based on comparable sales Taxable value is determined by taking the total actual value and dividing per a formula set by the state In 2009, tax valuations were based on values from June 30, 2008 just before the real estate bubble burst, estimated as a 40% increase over the 2007 valuations. September 16, 2011 Seter & Vander Wall, P.C. 7
