BOX 758 GREELEY, CO 80632 City of Dacono Adam Morehead, Mayor 512 Cherry Ave. Dacono, CO 80514 Dear Mayor Morehead, Congratulations! The City of Dacono is being awarded a Weld County CDBG program grant in the amount of $241,225 for Dacono's Glen Dale Avenue Waterline Replacement Project. The grant funds are to be used for infrastructure improvements to Glen Dale Street between Glen Dale Place and Glen Creighton Drive to include replacing the waterline under this section of road, replacing adjacent water meters, water pits, curb stops, fire hydrant and repaving that section of road with asphalt to benefit low and moderate -income residents of the City. The Weld County Board of Commissioners has set the priorities for the Weld CDBG Program to include: public improvements including adequate public infrastructure, housing preservation, and access to public services. Additionally, the Weld County CDBG Program is designed to provide funding to address community development needs in which at least 70% of the funding must principally benefit low and moderate -income persons. This project meets the program goal(s) by providing public infrastructure improvements to benefit low and moderate -income persons. All projects require some level of environmental review which could delay start of the project. The City of Dacono, as subrecipient, CANNOT begin to incur either administrative or program costs associated with the project until an environmental review has been completed and a subrecipient agreement with the Weld County CDBG Program is fully and properly executed. Please contact Elizabeth Relford, Deputy Director of Public Works, at (970) 673-5836 or Cynthia Martin, CDBG Analyst, at (970) 537-1769 at your earliest convenience to initiate contracting procedures. We as a board are excited to help these projects happen and see what new life is breathed into the communities when they're completed. Sincerely, Mike Freeman Chair, Weld County Board of Commissioners c: AJ Euckert, City Manager, City of Dacono Jennifer Krieger, Community Development Director, City of Dacono CoMMvn;CQ.-F;O(IS O2/27/23 2023-0492 Hello
