If becoming a sub-award entity,except for our time and effort,there would be no expense costs to Weld County.Weld County would actually receive compensation. Consultation was made with heads of Accounting and Clerk to the Board,who agreed review by the Board and signature by the Chair of the Subrecipient Commitment Form be the appropriate course of action.Thank you for your consideration. 2023-3426 H/Z7 j30007 o 007 University of Northern Colorado—PROPOSAL SUBRECIPIENT COMMITMENT Please complete and return with the repuired proposal documents:Budget and budget justification TO BE COMPLETED BY UNC(please complete before sending to subrecipient): UNC(prime')Sponsor:University of Northern Colorado UNC Proposal(PD)#TBD Pretrial Release Decisions,Conditions,and Services UNC Principal Investigator:Dr.Victoria Terranova(Victoria.terranova@unco.edu) UNC ORSP Contact Sol Adams(sol.adams@unco.edu) To be completed by proposed subrecipient: SUBRECIPIENT INSTITUTION:Weld,County of PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR(name&email):Chris D'Ovidio,Controller;cdovidiof)_weld.gov ADMINISTRATIVE CONTACT(name&email):Doug Erler,Director of Department of Justice Services;derler@weld.gov "*IF FUNDED,SEND AWARD DOCUMENTS TO(email address)derler@weld.gov INSTITUTIONAL ADDRESS WITH ZIP+4: PERFORMANCE SITE ADDRESS WITH ZIP+4: 1150 O Street 901 10th Street Greeley,CO 80632 Greeley,CO 80631 CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT-INSTITUTION CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT-PERFORMANCE SITE SAM UEI:MKKXT9U9MTV5 SAM.gov expiration date:11/23/23 EIN:84-6000813 PROJECT TITLE;Pretrial Release Decisions,Conditions,and Services NOTE:Period of performance&budget information may need to be revised upon receipt of an award for this proposal.
