It is recommended the excess vehicles be sold unless individual program managers wish to pay the depreciation on these excess vehicles." Based on this specific recommendation, CDOT has identified other areas of the State where these unused vehicles could be put to great use. Specifically, vehicles funded in part with 5310 grant funds need to meet the original FTA program intent, and this need can be met in areas underserved who do not currently have existing funds to purchase new vehicles. The above identified vehicles can be relinquished at no cost to Weld County, because the 5 year federal interest and designated service life of the vehicles(as determined by FTA) has expired. Therefore, CDOT requests Weld County to release ownership and title to the two above listed vehicles and seek no monetary gain in doing so. This action will allow CDOT to put these vehicles into service in an under served area of Colorado without complication. By signing on the next page, Weld County Transportation agrees to the recommendations and requirements listed above put forth by CDOT. Please have the appropriate representative sign below and have the document notarized to legalize the document. Once signed, please return the original copy to CDOT. Thank you for your cooperation.

The Colorado Department of Transportation(CDOT)has released the first lienholder and federal interest on these vehicles and an agreement has been made with Weld County(see attachments)that these vehicles will be transferred, at no cost, to Monte Vista Economic Development Corporation for use by Alamosa Bus Company and Red Willow Transportation for non-charter service in the San Luis Valley. These titles are only being released for the purposes of allowing Monte Vista Economic Development Corporation to transfer the titles into their name and attach the Colorado Department of Transportation as the first lien holder. Based on the agreement contracted between Monte Vista Economic Development Corporation and CDOT, these vehicles are being transferred with the understanding that the Colorado Department of Transportation will hold an additional lien on these vehicles for the duration of two (2)years from the time the EDC takes delivery of the vehicles. In order to complete this transfer, Weld County is required to sign and complete the information on the back of each title under seller information. After this is done, Weld County should send the titles immediately back to CDOT Transit Unit, c/o Ann Beauvais, so that the transfer can be officially made. Once the transfer has occurred between Weld County and Monte Vista Economic Development Corporation and the EDC retains the titles,the EDC will then title the vehicle as the new owner and the State of Colorado Department of Transportation will be listed as the lienholder. The amount of the lien will be for the state imposed share of each vehicle which will be $5,000 and will last for two(2) years from the time of transfer. Thank you for your cooperation in assisting CDOT fulfill its responsibilities to make sure the limited Federal transit funding Colorado receives is utilized effectively. Please call me with any questions or concerns. Regards, Ann Beauvais Transit Specialist-CDOT Transit Unit 303-757-9767 Hello
