Such improvements will provide a much needed employee housing unit for the Division of Wildlife. We feel this project will serve the dual function of meeting the critical housing shortage in Eagle County and enabling the DOW to hire and retain qualified officers in our area. The County has a strong project management staff and is willing to provide owner's representative services for this project. The County is willing to perform these services to the DOW at no cost. The County will select and contract directly with a general contractor to perform the work and will pay all costs associated with the same. The County's anticipated budget for this project is $100,000.00 and nothing in this letter will require the County to expend any particular amount of money on the project. The County will use its best efforts to assist in all phases of the rehabilitation and will act cooperatively and in coordination with the DOW in performing these functions. By signing below, you agree and appoint the County as your owner representative for the purpose of providing comprehensive construction and oversight services for the project. Additionally, you recognize that the CoUnty is attempting to assist the DOW with its housing needs and agree we shall not be held liable in the event some accidental oversight in performance by the County does occur. We will, of course, use our best efforts in performing on your behalf and believe this is a positive project for both entities. Thank you for the opportunity. Sincerely, ~ Bryan R. Treu County Attorney ------ Eagle County Building. 500 Broadway, P.O. Box 850, Eagle, Colorado 81631-0850 ... I have read, acknowledge, and agree with the terms of this letter. t:;/;.;;> - db f" , Area Wildlife Manager By:
