First, it formalizes Mick Ireland as the Chairperson of the Intermountian Regional Planning Commission (RPC) and identifies the responsibilities of the position, including participation on the Statewide Transportation Advisory Committee (STAC). Second, because the RPC does not have a federal tax identification number nor does it have accounting and administrative services, the chairperson of the RPC needs to assign the fiscal responsibility to an agency that meets State accounting protocol. In this case it is Pitkin County. Third, Pitkin County needs to formally accept fiscal responsibility for the roles and responsibilities of the chairperson of the RPC. The State will reimburse the County up to $6500.00 in this fiscal year (ending June 30, 2004) for all activities and services related to the responsibilities of the RPC chairperson. All record keeping will be the responsibility of the County. There are three signature pages on each copy of the contract. Mick will need to sign pages 11 and 16. Jack will need to sign page 17. The four contracts are on file with the Clerk's Office. RECOMMENED BOCC ACTION: Approve resolution and sign the regional transportation-planning contract with the State of Colorado.
