After thorough review, I am excited to offer a grant award in the amount of $1,000,000 to assist with the above mentioned project. Your project was reviewed based on a variety of factors such as its connection to energy impact, degree of need, measurable outcomes, amount of request, relationship to community goals, level of local match and community support, management capacity, resiliency and readiness to go. Competition for these limited funds is intense and we are seeing great demand. These grant funds will be from state severance tax proceeds, which may cause you to go to election to receive and spend them. You should confer with your legal and budget advisors to determine if such an election is necessary. Please contact your DOLA Regional Manager, Chris La May, at 970-679-7679 for information on how to proceed. Expenditure of State funds prior to the contract being fully executed cannot be included in the contract budget or reimbursed by the State. Per our program guidelines, this offer is valid for one year from the date of this letter. I wish you success with your project. Thank you for helping Colorado build an economy where all Coloradans can thrive. Sincerely, Mar\ Deambra Exe tive Director cc: Byron Pelton, State Senator Richard Holtorf, State Representative Elizabeth Relford, Weld County Chris D'Ovidio, Weld County Chris La May, DOLA Governor Jared S.
