RE: Colorado Air National Guard Land Release
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has requested that the City, County, and Airport
Authority execute an Instrument of Release for the existing acreage occupied by the
Colorado Air National Guard (CANG). This is necessary in order for all three entities to
permit the CANG to continue leasing the subject land under the present conditions. This
action is directly tied to the re-payment of all monies due for the purchase of the additional
10 acre tract for their expansion.
Attached is a copy of the Instrument of Release. All of the provisions of this document are
easily complied with. Paragraph 4 outlines the minimum sum of money to be spent on the
airport for eligible improvements to conclude this buyout. A portion of the monies being
spent this year by the City and County for the terminal project will adequately cover this
obligation with no additional funds being needed.
Your assistance in having the appropriate action taken by Weld County in this matter
would be appreciated. Once approved, I will forward the originals to you for execution.
Please call me with any questions.
