Agenda Item Summary
Agenda Date: 7/13/2026
Subject: Resolution No. 02-URA-2026 - A Resolution of the Town of Mead
Urban Renewal Authority Approving a Cooperation Agreement
Between the Town of Mead, Colorado and Mead Urban Renewal
Authority Relating to the Construction of a Police Facility (the
“Town Project”)
Presented by: Robert Rogers, MURA Contract Counsel
Summary:
The Mead Urban Renewal Authority (“MURA”) and Town of Mead (the “Town”) have
determined that constructing a new Police Facility in the Urban Renewal Area will serve a
public purpose and further the goals of the Town's Urban Renewal Plan. The Plan aims to
eliminate blight, strengthen the Town's economic base, and facilitate redevelopment in the
downtown area.
To finance the Police Facility project, the Town plans to enter into a lease-purchase agreement,
issuing Certificates of Participation (“COPs”). Under a Site Lease, the Town will lease the
facility to a Trustee, who will lease it back to the Town and issue the COPs to fund construction.
Pursuant to the proposed Cooperation Agreement with the Town, MURA will contribute a
portion of its incremental property tax revenue (“TIF”) from the Urban Renewal Area on an
annual basis to reimburse the Town for lease payments on the COPs. This allows TIF revenue
to support a key public facility.
Key Terms of Cooperation Agreement:
• MURA will remit all TIF revenue to the Town needed to make annual lease payments, less
an annual operations budget;
• MURA's pledge to the police facility is subordinate to any revenue sharing agreements
whether already established or established in the future, with other taxing entities;
• In any year, MURA's payment to the Town is capped at the Town's lease payment amount;
• The TIF pledge terminates if the lease-purchase is terminated for any reason.
Financial Considerations:
The Cooperation Agreement allows MURA TIF revenue to offset a significant portion of the
Town's cost to construct and finance the new Police Facility. Utilizing TIF for this purpose is
consistent with MURA's articulated purpose under the Urban Renewal Plan.
Staff Recommendation / Actions Required:
Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 02-URA-2026. A motion to approve the consent
agenda will approve this item. If this item is removed from the consent agenda for discussion, a

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth below, and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
the Town and the Authority agree as follows:
1. DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall
have the meanings set forth in Plan or the Lease. As used herein, unless the context expressly
indicates otherwise, the words defined below and capitalized in the text of this Agreement shall
have the respective meanings set forth below:

of the State of Colorado, but not including any offsets collected by the Weld County Treasurer for
return of overpayments or any reserve funds retained by the Authority for such purposes in
accordance with Sections 31-25-107(9)(a)(III) and (b) of the Act, and credited to the Special Fund.

2. AGREEMENT TO REMIT CERTAIN TAXES.
(a) In order to further the development of the Town Project and reimburse the Town
for a portion of the costs related thereto, the Authority hereby agrees and covenants that, except
as hereinafter provided, the Authority shall remit all Property Tax Increment Revenues less
amounts annually budgeted for operations and maintenance, which shall include Four Hundred
Seventy Thousand Dollars ($470,000) in the initial Fiscal Year for the Authority’s operational
expenses, including its pro rata share of salaries, wages, employee benefits, and related
administrative expenses, with such amount increasing by six percent (6%) (simple interest)
annually to the Town provided that such amount shall not exceed $900,000. The Authority hereby
pledges such Property Tax Increment Revenues to the Town, subject to the terms and provisions
hereof. Such revenues shall be remitted to the Town as soon as practicable after receipt thereof
from the Weld County Treasurer to the Authority, but in any event within thirty (30) days of receipt
thereof.
(b) The Authority’s obligations to remit Property Tax Increment Revenues hereunder
are subject to obligations of the Authority, whether existing or hereafter arising, to distribute tax
increment revenues to taxing entities pursuant to cooperation agreements entered into under
C.R.S. §§ 31-25-107(9.5) and 31-25-107(11) (collectively, the “Taxing Entity Cooperation
Agreements”). The Authority shall maintain a separate account within the Special Fund for
Property Tax Increment Revenues available for remittance to the Town, and the Authority’s
obligation to remit such revenues constitutes a multiple fiscal year financial obligation of the
Authority, payable solely from Property Tax Increment Revenues when received.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision to the contrary contained herein,
after deduction of amounts annually budgeted for operations and maintenance as provided in
subsection (a), the Authority shall remit Property Tax Increment Revenues to the Town only until
Page 25 of 31
the Authority has remitted an amount sufficient to pay the payments required to be made by the
Town during such Fiscal Year pursuant to the Lease. Upon remittance of such amount, the
Authority shall have no further obligation to remit Property Tax Increment Revenues to the Town
for such Fiscal Year, and any Property Tax Increment Revenues remaining thereafter may be
retained by the Authority and used, pledged, or otherwise applied by the Authority for any lawful
purpose.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision to the contrary contained herein, in
the event that the Lease is terminated for any reason, then the Authority’s obligation to remit the
Property Tax Increment Revenues shall terminate.
(e) The Authority hereby elects to apply all the provisions of the Supplemental Public
Securities Act, constituting Title 11, Article 57, Part 2, C.R.S. to this Agreement. In accordance
with Section 11-57-208(2) C.R.S., the Property Tax Increment Revenues pledged pursuant to this
Agreement shall immediately be subject to the lien of such pledge without any physical delivery,
filing or further act. The lien of such pledge and the obligation to perform the contractual
provisions made herein shall have priority over any or all other obligations and liabilities, except
as may otherwise be provided herein and except that the lien of such pledge is expressly
subordinate to and shall not impair the Authority’s obligations under the Taxing Entity Cooperation
Agreements. The lien of such pledge shall be valid, binding and enforceable as against all
persons having claims of any kind in tort, contract, or otherwise against the Authority irrespective
of whether such persons have notice of such liens.
3. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
(a) Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as hereinafter provided, neither the Town nor
the Authority shall be obligated or liable under the terms of this Agreement to any person or entity
not a party hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Police Facility is the leased
property under the Site Lease, the Trustee shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement for
so long as the Site Lease remains in effect. In the event that the Police Facility is not the leased
property under the Site Lease or the Site Lease is no longer in effect, the Trustee shall have no
rights under this Agreement.
(b) Modifications. No modification or change of any provision in this Agreement shall
be made, or construed to have been made, unless such modification is mutually agreed to in
writing by both parties. Memoranda of understanding and correspondence shall not be construed
as amendments to this Agreement. In the event that the Police Facility is the leased property
under the Site Lease, this Agreement shall not be modified or amended without the written
consent of the Trustee for so long as the Site Lease remains in effect. In the event that the Police
Facility is not the leased property under the Site Lease or the Site Lease is no longer in effect,
the Trustee shall not have any rights to consent to the amendment or modification of this
Agreement.
(c) No Election Required. The Town and the Authority acknowledge that, according
to the decision of the Colorado Court of Appeals in Olson v. City of Golden, 53 P.3d 747 (2002),
an urban renewal authority is not a local government and therefore is not subject to the provisions
of Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution. Accordingly, the Authority may enter into
this Agreement and agree to remit the Property Tax Increment Revenue in accordance with the
terms and provisions of this Agreement without electoral authorization, and such obligations are
not subject to annual appropriation.
Page 26 of 31
(d) Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall represent the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all prior negotiations,
representations or agreements, either written or oral, between the parties relating to the subject
matter of this Agreement and shall be independent of and have no effect upon any other contracts;
except that nothing herein is intended to replace or supersede provisions of the May 2, 2016
Cooperative Agreement between the Town and the Authority regarding Tax Increment
Expenditure Revenue Sharing and Administrative Services.
(e) No Waiver of Immunities. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a waiver,
in whole or in part, by any Party hereto, of the rights, protections, and privileges afforded under
the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act, § 24-10-101, et seq., C.R.S., or under any other law.
No portion of this Agreement shall be deemed to have created a duty of care that did not
previously exist with respect to any person not a party to this Agreement.
(f) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby. Further, in the event of any such holding of invalidity, illegality, or
unenforceability (as to any or all parties hereto), the Parties agree to take such action(s) as may
be necessary to achieve to the greatest degree possible the intent of the affected provision of this
Agreement.
(g) Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned, in whole or in part, by either
party without the written consent of the other. In the event that the Police Facility is the leased
property under the Site Lease, this Agreement shall not be assigned without the written consent
of the Trustee for so long as the Site Lease remains in effect. In the event that the Police Facility
is not the leased property under the Site Lease or the Site Lease is no longer in effect, the Trustee
shall not have any rights to consent to the assignment of this Agreement.
(h) Waiver. No waiver of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by either party
shall constitute a waiver of any other breach or of such provision. Failure of either party to enforce,
at any time, or from time to time, any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a
waiver thereof.
(i) Governing Law. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado.
(j) Effective Date; Termination. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date
executed on behalf of the Town and the Authority. This Agreement shall not be terminated so
long as the Certificates, or any refunding thereof, are outstanding or until the cessation of
collection of the Property Tax Increment Revenue.
IN WITNESS HEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their
duly authorized officers on the date above.

Re: Special Disclosure of Costs for Legal Services in Connection with Certificates
of Participation
Dear Board of Directors:
WBA, PC (“WBA”) currently serves as general counsel to the Town of Mead Urban
Renewal Authority (the “URA”) pursuant to an engagement letter that defines the scope of WBA’s
engagement for general counsel legal services (the “Engagement”). The Engagement states that
fees for our services are paid monthly based on hours of service provided and other factors set
forth in the Engagement. The purpose of this letter is to confirm the terms of a special fee
arrangement regarding WBA’s work in connection with the expected issuance by the Town of its
Certificates of Participation, Series 2026, in the estimated principal aggregate amount of up to
$16,000,000 (the “Certificates”) and the related Cooperation Agreement between the URA and
the Town (the “Agreement”, also referred to as the “Transaction.”) This letter is also intended
to describe the roles of WBA and various other professionals expected to be involved in the
Transaction. Due to the nature of this type of Transaction, fees for all professionals are usually
paid at closing; however, our Engagement provides for monthly billing and payment, followed,
typically, by reimbursement to the URA for our fees from closing proceeds. This letter discloses
a special billing arrangement for our fees to provide a measure of certainty to the URA regarding
the costs of the Transaction.
The effort to close the Transaction may involve the work of several professionals outside
the Firm including special counsel who will be engaged by the Town to assist with structuring the
Transaction and issue various opinions necessary to close the Transaction, including a tax-exempt
opinion. These professional firms are generally referred to herein as the “Professionals”. Our role
as general counsel will be to participate with the Professionals in documenting the Transaction as
to which we will render a general counsel opinion to various parties regarding the status of the
URA and other matters surrounding the Transaction.
All of the Professionals will be paid out of proceeds of the Transaction on terms set forth
in their individual engagements, which means they are paid by the URA. Their duties to the URA
will be set forth in their individual engagement agreements and will run directly to the URA and
not to WBA. The bank may choose to engage its own counsel at its expense whose duties will run
to the bank only.
In connection with these Professional engagements, it is important to understand that
Page 29 of 31
WBA’s role in the Transaction is limited to matters specifically set forth in our legal opinion (the
“Opinion”). If the risk or structure of the Transaction changes materially from what we anticipate
at this time, resulting in changes to our Opinion which may increase the scope of our services or
risk, we will advise the URA and it may be necessary for us to increase our fees (as set forth below)
for these services.
It is also important for the URA to understand, and agree, that WBA is not engaged to
oversee the efforts, work product, advice or opinions of the other Professionals. We will perform
the work necessary to render our Opinion and will be sufficiently involved in the Transaction to
keep the URA apprised of the status of the efforts of the other Professionals. We read their work
to assure our familiarity with their documents but we do not review their work for completeness
or accuracy. They are engaged because their services fall outside the scope of our expertise.
Accordingly, by proceeding with the Transaction, the URA acknowledges that it will rely solely
on such Professionals as to the advice they render to the URA and the content of their written
materials, and the URA further acknowledges that WBA is not the guarantor of their work. Should
the URA have any questions or concerns regarding the work of other Professionals, those questions
should be directed to us so we can make sure they are addressed by the correct party.
As compensation for WBA's services as general counsel in connection with the approval,
issuance and closing of the Transaction, the URA shall pay the Firm a fee of $25,000 for the
Transaction from closing proceeds to compensate us for our time and expertise in connection with
attempting to achieve a closing of the Transaction and for risks we incur in connection with the
issuance of our Opinion. Accordingly, we will NOT include time and materials billings to the
URA as part of our routine monthly general counsel invoices; rather, a “Certificate Transaction
Legal Services Invoice” will be provided to the URA at or near the closing of the Transaction and
shall be due at the time of closing. In addition to these fees, there shall be due and payable upon
closing of the Transaction the out of pocket expenses, including travel, telephone and telefax, staff
overtime and copying expenses, and all other items and expenses incurred or paid by the Firm on
behalf of the URA in connection with the Transaction. Please note that if the URA directs that
work on the Transaction cease prior to closing, or in the event the Transaction does not close for
any reason, we may opt to provide a standard invoice to you for actual time and expenses incurred,
which will be due in accordance with our standard Engagement, in lieu of the Certificate
Transaction Legal Services Invoice referenced above.
We appreciate the opportunity to continue to provide legal services to the URA. Should
you have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to call us.
Sincerely,
WBA, PC
