Oil and gas industry struggles expected to drop millions out of Weld County's budget

The oil and gas industry's share of the assessed property value in Weld County has been on the rise for years: Although 2016 budget planners are enjoying the spoils right now, it looks like the drop in oil and gas activity will take $60 million out of the county's budget in 2017, said Finance and Administration Director Don Warden. A third of the county's revenue comes from property tax, which annually charges a percentage of a property's assessed value, a figure assigned by the assessor's office.
