RE : 6th Avenue Bridge - BRO 0003( 3)
Dear Drew:
The City of Greeley is currently designing the new 6th Avenue
Bridge over the Poudre River. As you are aware , the City and
Weld County had entered into an agreement on January 16 , 1985 ,
whereupon Weld County agreed to pay a maximum share of $54 ,000
for the construction.
This project is being funded 80% by Federal BRO bridge funds, so
the State of Colorado is required to review all the plans and to
bid and inspect the project. We are experiencing the same
problem that occurs in many Federal projects in that the cost
estimate for the project , including all engineering ,
construction, inspection, and contingencies, is now approaching
$850,000. The original estimate of $540 ,000 was mutually arrived
at by your staff and me in late 1984 when the application for
funding was made. At that time , we felt that these funds would
be adequate. It is still my opinion that the final cost will be
somewhat less than $850,000.
In order for this project to proceed , the City of Greeley has
requested that additional Federal funds be allocated to bring the
budgeted funds up to $850 ,000. It appears that these funds are
currently available, and the City is pursuing acquisition of the
additional monies. In order to receive the additional funds, the
City of Greeley is required to commit $ 183,333 in local funds to
provide the 20% match plus additional non -matching funds
required .
The City of Greeley realizes that the original agreement
stipulates that Weld County would pay a maximum of $54 ,000 in
matching funds. Because of the apparent excessive cost increase
projected for this project , the City of Greeley is requesting
that Weld County consider amending the agreement to revise Weld
County's contribution to a maximum of one-half of the local match
needed , not to exceed $91 , 650 . �-�

The City of Greeley recognizes that Weld County as well as the
City of Greeley is experiencing budget constraints and that
funding of projects is tight. We do feel this project is
important , and we have agreed to design , construct , and assume
ownership of the bridge along with providing local funding. We
are merely asking that Weld County match the City's share of the
costs .
Thank you for your consideration in this matter .
Sincerely , „
