Dear Mayor Moser,
Congratulations! The Town of Eaton is being awarded a Weld County CDBG program grant in the amount
of $155,000 to assist with costs associated with replacing non -conforming ADA ramps in a low to
moderate -income area of town. Grant funds are to be used in part to replace thirty-seven (37)
individual/directional ramps.
The Weld County Board of County Commissioners have set the priorities for the Weld CDBG Program to
be 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 access to public services
by reducing accessibility barriers.
All projects require some level of environmental review which could delay start of the project. The Town
of Eaton, 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, CDBG Program Manager, 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 these
communities when they're completed.
Sincerely,
Mike Freeman
Chair, Weld County Board of Commissioners
