Dear Commissioner Freeman:
RECEIVED
AUG 11 2C16
WELD COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS
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.
Expenditure of State funds prior to the contract being fully executed cannot be included in the contract budget or
reimbursed by the State. If a circumstance arises and a grantee must spend their match dollar sooner than the full
execution of the grant agreement, the Regional Manager for the respective grantee must be contacted immediately to
discuss the need and offer an appropriate solution. 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
