<br />, <br />I <br /> <br />lJIJl:-l~f; <br /> <br />I met with F&W this week to request funding support for the map-wall project in <br />the boardroom. F&W has agreed to provide up to $5,000 toward the cost of the <br />map-wall project (estimated cost: $4,800). I still have some fund raising to do on <br />this project, but so far so good. <br /> <br />Attached for your review is a summary accounting of the expenditures to date on <br />the building/capital development project. <br /> <br />Sale of District Property-We have a prospect for the sale of the District <br />Property. But, we have to work on access issues. Greg Hahn and I met with City <br />of Pueblo Department of Transportation officials yesterday (January 121h) to talk <br />about an access point off Club Manor Drive. We were advised to continue <br />working on increasing the traffic-count threshold for the right-in only access on <br />HWY 50-that is now limited to no more than 25 cars per hour, which doesn't <br />work at all for retail/restaurant/convenience store operations. Greg will meet with <br />the prospect to discuss these access issues further, but we may need to pay for <br />a separate engineer's report that would indicate that an increase in the threshold <br />would not jeopardize safety. At this point I'm unsure of the cost of such a report, <br />In any case, the report is just the first step. We would have to use the report to <br />convince the C-DOT higher-ups that the threshold should be changed. I'll keep <br />you updated. <br /> <br />Allocation Committee-Applications for Project Water requests went out earlier <br />this month and are due back by February 4th. This is an early allocation for <br />irrigation users only. They will have the option to buy Enterprise Project Water at <br />$5.00 per acre-foot or Project Water at $8,00 per acre-foot. The Allocation <br />Committee will review these requests and make a recommendation to the Board <br />at the February Board meeting, <br /> <br />Investment Policy and Investment Strategy-Phil is working on an investment <br />policy for the District that will provide general guidelines on the investment of <br />District funds. The policy will of course be consistent with the requirements and <br />limitations of State Budget Law. He is also working on an investment strategy <br />that will plan our investments for the next three to five years. We are reaching <br />the maturity date on many of our three-year T-notes, so it is time to consider our <br />options. Phil will review the policy and strategy documents with the Finance <br />Committee before bringing a recommendation to the Board. <br /> <br />Pending/Ongoing Items- <br /> <br />1.
