Dear Commissioner Freeman:
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.
Congratulations! After thorough review, I am excited to offer a grant award in the amount of$200,000.These grant
funds will be from state severance tax proceeds,which may cause you to go to election to receive and spend these
funds. 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.As
you know, no state funds or matching funds can be obligated before a grant contract is fully executed. Expenditure of
any funds prior to the contract being fully executed cannot be included in the contract budget or reimbursed by the
