Grazing lease was signed by Eddie Burns in December 2005 (see attached) which states that a total of no more than 50 head of cattle will be pasteurized on the property at any one time b. Approved 5 year Application to New Mexico Stated that there would be 49 livestock (35 mother cows, 12 yearly hefers and 2 bulls) (see attached) I do not believe that Brice factored in Eddie's profit when we gave Renee her raise. I do not have the exact formula the county uses but I have called the following individuals in trying to track down this information: Janice Ahem 505-982-3610 from Rubin Katz Law firm (received her contact info from Darren) — she did not know answer off hand however said she would research for me next week. Reviewed Santa Fe Web Site and found out the following: a. Grazing valuation claims require proof of the presence of at least one head of livestock on a minimum land requirement of 80 acres (southern Santa Fe County) and 53 acres (northern Santa Fe County) and proof that the livestock has access to all of the agricultural land for the tax year. This may be in the form of a grazing lease, a personal property declaration of livestock that graze on the land, or some other proof of grazing use. Grazing, however, must be the primary use of the land in order to qualify. b. Website did not provide a clear answer of how many acres each livestock exempts so I called Larry Valdez 505-986-6300 from the Agriculture County Assessor's office and left 2 messages. Left a message with Paul Bardacke 505-883-2500 from Sutin Thayer Brown however he is not in today EFTA00758273
