RE: EIAF#07497-Weld County Roads 13, 19& 126 Reconstruction COMMISSIONERS
Dear Commissioner Rademacher:
The state Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance Advisory Committee met recently to review requests for grants and
loans from state severance tax and mineral lease revenues.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.
The review process is now complete and I am offering to enter into a contract for a grant in the amount of$2,000,000.
We anticipate 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 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 state. Consult your
regional manager prior to expending any funds. Per our program guidelines this offer is valid for one year from the
date of this letter.
Good luck with your project. Let us know if we can be of any assistance.
Sincere)
Reeves wn
