PASS -AROUND REVIEW
PASS -AROUND TITLE: Colorado Department of Labor and Employment Modification Letter
Signature Delegation
DEPARTMENT: Human Services DATE: May 20, 2025
PERSON REQUESTING: Jamie Ulrich, Director, Human Services
Brief description of the problem/issue: Periodically the Weld County Department of Human Services
(WCDHS) receives Modification Letters as communication items from the Colorado Department of
Labor and Employment (CDLE) regarding changes to the period of performance dates associated with
the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) funding. These letters require a signature by
the Workforce Center Director confirming receipt of the notification in order for the Department to initiate
a Notice of Funding Allocation (NFA) Work Plan to officially make the change. Once the revised NFA
is drafted based on the Modification Letter communication, it is presented to the Board of County
Commissioners for formal approval and signature by the Chair.
At this time, WCDHS is requesting that signing and submittal authority for CDLE Modification Letters
be delegated to the Weld County Workforce Center Director. This will help expedite the initiation of the
related NFA that will be presented to the Board for formal approval and signature.
What options exist for the Board?
• Approval for the Weld County Workforce Center Director to sign and submit Modification
Letters.
• Deny approval for the Weld County Workforce Center Director to sign and submit Modification
Letters.
Consequences: The Weld County Workforce Center Director will not have delegation to sign
Modification Letters.
Impacts: WCDHS will not be able to expedite Modification Letters back to CDLE to initiate a
NFA for formal approval and signature by the Board.
Costs (Current Fiscal Year / Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years):
• No cost is associated with this.
