Addendum to Center of Colorado Water Conservancy District's <br />Loan Application to CWCB for Smelter Pipeline Reservoir Project <br />Page 3 <br />1.0 of this Addendum. <br />C. Sponsor. The Project sponsor and sole owner is the Center of Colorado <br />Water Conservancy District. <br />D. Regulatory permits and approvals. The SPR is an existing non jurisdictional <br />reservoir and it will remain non jurisdictional after completion of the modifications. <br />Center has obtained the US Army Corps of Engineers' 404 Permit (Copy attached) <br />and Parts County has determined that the Project is exempt from the County's <br />1041 Permit Regulations (copy attached). The Division Engineer for Water <br />Division No. 1 has approved the reservoir outlet works and discharge to Mosquito <br />Creek (copy attached). Water rights for the SPR are already adjudicated in Case <br />No. W-4322 and 09CW145 (copies of decrees attached). <br />E. Revenue Sources and Financial Feasibility of Project. Center of Colorado <br />is a Title 37 special district and it is funded by a 1.0 mill ad valorem tax on the real <br />property located in Park County. Center of Colorado "De- Bruced" in 2000 and is <br />authorized to retain all excess collected revenues. At the November, 2010 <br />General Election, Center obtained voter approval for the borrowing of funds for the <br />Project. A copy of the approved ballot initiative is attached. <br />Center of Colorado's general fund revenues from its tax revenue sources for 2012 <br />will be approximately $419,195.00, including abatements and delinquent taxes. A <br />budget and cash flow analysis is attached. <br />Center currently has $776,878.00 in non - restricted reserves, not including <br />additional property tax revenues which will be received from the June, 2012 <br />property tax payments. The proposed loan for the SPR will be repaid from <br />Center's non - pledged general fund revenues. At present, Center has pledged <br />$54,649.70 per year of its revenues to the CWCB for Loan No. C150276 which <br />was used to build the James Tingle Reservoir Project. In addition, Center has an <br />annual note payment to the Bargas Family for $32,276.67 for the purchase of the <br />Randall and Sessions Ditch Water Rights. The debt to the Bargas Family is <br />,secured by a deed of trust on the water rights and not the revenues of the district <br />however, those revenues are the source of repayment. The loan from the Bargas <br />Family has a current balance of $1,196,287.00 and is due in June, 2018. The <br />annual payment on the loan is $225,932.12; however, the Centennial Water & <br />Sanitation District is responsible for payment of 85.714% of the payment or <br />$193,654.00. Thus Center's net annual payment on the Bargas Family loan is <br />$32,276.67. <br />Center's total debt service, not including the proposed new loan for the Project, is <br />$86,926.37 per year vs. revenues of 419,195.00 or approximately 21% of <br />revenues. With a new loan for the Project of $400,000.00, and estimated annual <br />payments of approximately $47,000 (assuming a 3% interest rate and a 10 year <br />
