Commission Requirement. The purpose of this document is to satisfy the requirement established by the Transportation Commission that applicants for Public -Public Partnership projects confirm their commitment to the project. The RAMP Resolution adopted by the Transportation Commission on October 17, 2013, provides in part: BE IT... RESOLVED that the Transportation Commission requires for each Public - Public Partnership project on or before January 6, 2014, a project scope, schedule, and budget developed by the Colorado Department of Transportation in the form and to the level of detail specified by the Chief Engineer; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Transportation Commission also required for each Public -Public Partnership project on or before January 6, 2014, evidence, in a form specified by the Chief Financial Officer, confirming a commitment by the applicant to the project scope, schedule, and budget developed by the Department, including an agreement to hold a public vote to authorize the local match by no later than April 8 if such vote is necessary; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Chief Engineer may extend the January 15, 2014, deadlines to April 7, 2014, upon application for extension form any applicant or CDOT Region Transportation Director for projects in a flood damaged area. Project Scope, Schedule, and Budget Prepared by CDOT. The Colorado Department of Transportation has prepared the required scope, schedule, and budget for this Public -Public Partnership project. This scope, schedule, and budget is incorporated as Exhibit A of this document. Exhibit A specifies the financial and other commitments of the County of Weld and identifies when it is reasonably anticipated that such commitments will be provided or performed. 1 2013-3517 Changes in Project Costs. On a CDOT administered project, CDOT and the Local Agency Partner will assess at the Final Office Review (FOR) the project budget to be contracted. An estimate over the Exhibit A amount will trigger a reevaluation of both the project as well as the project match. CDOT and the County of Weld will engage in negotiations to determine how and if the project moves to advertisement for construction, as well as the project match. If a project is determined by CDOT to no longer be feasible or if an agreement cannot be reached, CDOT will advise the Transportation Commission that the project is unable to be moved forward and should be removed from the list of approved Public -Public Partnership projects. On a CDOT administered project, any cost variance discovered after the Final Office Review (FOR) will be the responsibility of CDOT. On a project administered by the Local Agency Partner, the CDOT contribution will not increase. If there is a cost savings, the savings will be prorated. Intergovernmental Agreement. Exhibit B is a standard template for the Intergovernmental Agreement that will be completed and fully executed prior to any CDOT expenditure other than the five percent of the total project cost for Fiscal Year 2014 authorized in the RAMP Resolution for pre -construction expenditures. It is the policy of CDOT that the Intergovernmental Agreements must be executed by June 30, 2014, unless the CDOT Chief Engineer grants an extension because of flood damage or Incidence Response workload. Evidence of the Continued Commitment by the County of Weld to the Project. As an officer of the County of Weld, I confirm that appropriate officials of the County of Weld have reviewed and considered Exhibit A which contains the scope, schedule, and budged developed by CDOT for the project, Exhibit B which contains the standard template which will be used for the Intergovernmental Agreement, and the policy regarding changes in project cost stated in the body of this document. I confirm that to the best of my knowledge I know of no reason why the County of Weld and CDOT will not execute an Intergovernmental Agreement as specified in Exhibit B and based on the scope, schedule, and budget contained in Exhibit A and the policy regarding changes in project cost stated in the body of this document by June 30, 2014.

Purchase of ROW and Utility relocation will occur in 2015. We are estimating FIR to be in late summer/early fall around August/September of 2015. FOR would be in then be around December of 2015.

The existing CDOT traffic signal can be utilized but will require some modifications to accommodate the new intersection geometry. The existing traffic control box will need to be relocated. The design entails constructing concrete islands around the signals with free right-hand turning lanes between the traffic signal islands and the edge of pavement. The majority of the existing US 34 concrete pavement will be left in place. To accommodate new turning lanes, the 10' wide concrete shoulder will be removed and replaced with a new 16' wide 9" thick concrete section (12' travel lane plus 4' shoulder). The existing CR 49 asphalt pavement will be removed. The new WCR 49 Extension Project has been designed with a 11" thick concrete section. The new concrete pavement section will be approximately 80' wide. We are proposing that the intersection project constructs the new south leg of WCR 49 for a distance of approximately 1,400 LF and constructs the new north leg of WCR 49 just to the a stopping point about 200' north of the intersection. Schedule: The Design for this project is completed and the needed right-of-way has been purchased. Construction will begin be completed in 2014. Budget: The cost estimate is on the next page.

Widening the intersection and increasing the corner radius dimensions will allow turning movements to be made more easily. The existing two lanes of paved state highway will remain and new asphalt auxiliary lanes will be added. A 2 inch asphalt overlay will be added over the surface of the existing and new roadway throughout the limits of the project. The possibility of some realignment of the intersection will be looked at to help with the skew -angle of the intersection that currently exists. In addition, this project is a public -private partnership with High Sierra Water Services who constructed their facilities on the northwest corner of the intersection. Per Weld County's Improvements Agreements approved by the Board of County Commissioners, High Sierra will pay their proportional share of the improvement costs. Schedule: The Design for this project will begin in 2015. Purchase of ROW and Utility relocation will occur in 2016. Construction will be completed in 2017. FIR is anticipated in Fall of 2015. FOR would be at the end of 2015 or first quarter of 2016. Budget: The cost estimate is on the next page.
