EXHIBIT A STATEMENT OF WORK
I. Project Description:
The Office of Federal Funds & Strategic Initiatives, a division of the Governor's Office of
State Planning and Budgeting (hereinafter called "State") agrees to provide grant funds to
"Weld County" (hereinafter called "Grantee") to support the Regional Grant Navigator
activities outlined below by hiring a contractor, FTE, or splitting the duties amongst existing
staff.
The State of Colorado has the potential to receive up to $7.1 Billion dollars in funding through the
Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. A significant portion of these funds will be made available directly
to local governments, which are experiencing significant capacity constraints that were exacerbated
by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Grant funding will support rural and small local governments' ability to navigate and secure Federal
funding (Infrastructure, Investment, and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act ( IRA) by
addressing their long-standing capacity shortfalls. In most communities, the capacity needs are in the
form of staff to think beyond the day-to-day operations and dedicated time to secure funding that
addresses big challenges. With all the additional funding made available by the Federal government,
these capacity needs have only been exacerbated, making it challenging to ensure equitable
distribution of federal funding opportunities that could support failing local infrastructure. Grantee
will play a pivotal role in providing the education and technical support needed to assist local
governments in securing much -needed federal funding.
Funds will be advanced to the Grantee, and the use of these funds will be reported every quarter
to the State. These reports will be due July 30, 2025, October 30, 2025, January 30, 2026, and April
30, 2026 and May 8, 2026.

appearance of a conflict of interest exists, or if Grantee is uncertain as to such, Grantee shall submit to
the State a disclosure statement setting forth the relevant details for the State's consideration. Failure to

the schedule and other conditions set forth in this Agreement. Grantee shall initiate payment requests by
invoice to the State, in a form and manner approved by the State. The State shall pay Grantee for all

Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and, if applicable Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB)
of amount requested. Amounts not paid by the State within 45 days of the State's acceptance of the
invoice shall bear interest on the unpaid balance beginning on the 45th day at the rate set forth in CRS
S24-30-202(24) until paid in full. Interest shall not accrue if a good faith dispute exists as to the State's
obligation to pay all or a portion of the amount due. Grantee shall invoice the State separately for interest
on delinquent amounts due, referencing the delinquent payment, number of day's interest to be paid, and
applicable interest rate. The acceptance of an invoice shall not constitute acceptance of any Work
performed under this Agreement. Except as specifically agreed in this Agreement, Grantee shall be solely
responsible for all costs, expenses, and other charges it incurs in connection with its performance under
this Grantee.
12. Term. The parties' respective performances under this Agreement shall commence on the "Service From"
date identified on the face of the Small Dollar Grant Award, unless otherwise specified, and shall
terminate on the "Service To" date identified on the face of the Small Dollar Grant Award unless sooner

receipt of the payment or notification of the determination or calculation of the payment by the State.
The State will review the information presented by Grantee and may make changes to its determination
based on this review. The calculation, determination or payment amount that results from the State's
review shall not be subject to additional dispute under this subsection. No payment subject to a dispute
under this subsection shall be due until after the State has concluded its review, and the State shall not
pay any interest on any amount during the period it is subject to dispute under this subsection.

Matching Funds, whether direct or contingent, only extend to funds duly and lawfully appropriated for the
purposes of this Agreement by the authorized representatives of Grantee and paid into Grantee's treasury
or bank account. Grantee represents to the State that the amount designated "Grantee's Matching Funds"
pursuant to this Agreement, has been legally appropriated for the purposes of this Agreement by its
authorized representatives and paid into its treasury or bank account. Grantee does not by this Agreement
irrevocably pledge present cash reserves for payments in future fiscal years, and this Agreement is not

claimed interest, late charges, fees, taxes or penalties of any nature, except as required by Grantee's laws
or policies.
15. Reimbursement of Grantee Costs. If applicable, the State shall reimburse Grantee's allowable costs, not

grant except that Grantee may adjust the amounts between each line item of the Budget without formal

State of the change, the change does not modify the total maximum amount of this Agreement, and the
https://osc.colorado.gov/model-small-dollar-grant-awards-and-content 6/25
4/28/25, 4:01 PM Model Small Dollar Grant Awards and Content I OSC
change does not modify any requirements of the Work. If applicable, the State shall reimburse Grantee for

after the "Service To" date identified on the face of the Small Dollar Grant Award, or after any phase
performance period end date for a respective phase of the Work, shall not be reimbursable. The State shall
only reimburse allowable costs described in this Agreement and shown in the Budget if those costs are (a)

price paid minus any items of value received by Grantee that reduce the costs actually incurred).

limited to the amount remaining of such Grant Funds. If State, federal or other funds are not appropriated,

this Agreement, in whole or in part, without incurring further liability. The State shall, however, remain
obligated to pay for Work performed and accepted prior to the effective date of notice of termination, and
this termination shall otherwise be treated as if this Agreement were terminated in the public interest as
described in S28.

the termination. If this Grant is terminated in this manner, then Grantee shall return any advanced
