We made a presentation before you on October 16, 1984 requesting funding from the county share of the Colorado Lottery monies. Recently we noted the attached article in the Rocky Mountain News regarding the future development of Colorado Tourist Information Centers at eight sites in the state. I have written (copy enclosed) to inquire about our getting on the "list" for such a site and am asking if the Board of County Commissioners might be of some assistance in pursuing this project. We would greatly appreciate suggestions from you as to other avenues we might investigate. Thank you for your interest. ,Siin�cerely, Mrs. James Adams Chairman, Beautification and Park Committee 35044 AULT BUSINESS ASSOCIATION • P. O.

The Ault Business Association (Chamber of Commerce) has had the desire to do something just exactly like the ones you describe: rest area, picnic tables, restrooms and a point for distribution of Colorado tourist information. Enclosed you will find a sketch of such a site, a park, designed for the intersection of Colorado highway 14 and U.S. highway 85 in the town of Ault. We are located south of the Wyoming border approximately 40 miles and west of Sterling approximately 85 miles. There is a lot of tourist traffic through our town not only in the summer months but all during the year. Therefore our interest in developing a roadside park with tourist infor- mation. If we were able to offer some of the ammenities such as land, water, land- scaping etc. which you say Burlington has agreed to donate would you then consider our location as a "Colorado Tourist Information Center"? The enclosed sketch for such a site was developed by the University of Colorado Center for Community Development and Design last summer and we would like very much to implement this plan. The chairman of this committee within the Ault Business Association would be very willing to meet with you and bring more detailed blueprints, budget estimates etc. if you would be willing to give us direction regarding the project. Sincerely, 77nc� Mrs. Sue Adams Chairman, Beautification and Park Committee cc: Weld County Commissioners Mayor, Town of Ault AULT BUSINESS ASSOCIATION • P. O. BOX 38 • AULT, COLORADO 80610 Hello
