will be local lending institutions, some of which are noted on the accompanying list,
involved in making the mortgages to which the mortgage credit certificates (MCCs) will be
allocated. For questions, contact Barbara Peterson, Eagle County Housing Dept., PO Box

Eagle County received a $5,000,000 allocation in 2002 and a $21,631,138 allocation in 2003
for mortgage credit certificates. The 2003 allocation consisted of a $20,000,000 allocation

3. Do you have site control? Has the project received zoning, subdivision and site plan approvals? If

approval?

or planned? What is the estimated time of completion?

commitment letter and any conditions. If not, when is the preliminary commitment anticipated?
