The Honorable Laura Hargis
Mayor of Hudson
PO Box 351
Hudson, CO 80642
Dear Mayor Hargis,
Congratulations! The Town of Hudson is being awarded a Weld County CDBG program grant in the amount of
$65,000 for infrastructure improvements for the benefit of Hudson's seniors, persons with disabilities and low and
moderate -income residents. The grant funds are to be used to cover a portion of cost of a $155,500 infrastructure
project to construct approximately 0.4 miles of sidewalk along the north side of CO -52 (Main Street) from Fishing
Pond Road to Beech Street and construct an ADA crosswalk with overhead flashing light across CO -52 at Beech
Street.
The Weld County Board of County Commissioners has set the priorities for the Weld CDBG Program to be public
improvements including adequate public infrastructure, housing preservation, and access to public services. In
addition, 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's goals of providing adequate public infrastructure. CDBG funds will be used to reimburse the town for
labor and materials to construct the sidewalk and ADA crosswalk.
All projects require some level of environmental review which could delay the start of the project. The Town of
Hudson, 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 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.
Sincer

Dear Mayor Peterson,
Congratulations! The Town of Firestone is being awarded a Weld County CDBG program grant in the amount of
