ANNOTATION

Assessor properly attributed the value of common area residential improvements built on agricultural land to the owner lots of a common interest community. The attribution comported with the overall scheme of property taxation. Jet Black, LLC v. Routt County Bd. of County Comm'rs, 165 P.3d 744 (Colo. App. 2006).

The phrase in subsection (2) stating that "common elements shall not be separately taxed or assessed" is merely a recognition that the value of common elements is inherently included as a component of each individual unit's total actual value and will be assessed and taxed as part of the unit's overall assessment and taxation, rather than separately taxed or assessed to the association as was previously done. Manor Vail Condominium Ass'n v. Bd. of Equaliz., 956 P. 2d 654 (Colo. App. 1998).
