RE: EIAF 08705 Weld County Road 39 Connector Road Design Et Floodplain Analysis
Dear Commissioner Moreno:
The Department of Local Affairs is in receipt of your application for state Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance
funds. These revenues are derived from oil, gas, carbon dioxide, coal, and metals extracted in Colorado.
Your project was reviewed based on a variety of factors such as its connection to energy impact, degree of need,
measurable outcomes, amount of request, relationship to community goals, level of local match and community
support, management capacity, and readiness to go. Competition for these limited funds was intense and we had
many more requests than we had funds available.
Congratulations! After thorough review, I am excited to offer a grant award in the amount of $200,000 for the
design and floodplain analysis for a new WCR 39 connector road from WCR 50.5 to WCR 52 outside of LaSalle.
These grant funds will be from state severance tax proceeds, which may cause you to go to election to receive and
spend them. You should confer with your legal and budget advisors to determine if such an election is necessary.
Please contact your DOLA Regional Manager, Don Sandoval, at (970) 679-4501 for information on how to proceed.
Expenditure of State funds prior to the contract being fully executed cannot be included in the contract budget or
reimbursed by the State. Per our program guidelines, this offer is valid for one year from the date of this letter.
I wish you success with your project.
Sincerely,
Iry Halter
Executive Director
