The present ordinance extends the City's commitment to the funding for the second year of the two -year grant period. FINANCIAL IMPACT The budget for the second year of the internship will be $26,000. Of this amount, $13,000 will come from the EIAF No. 4594 Pueblo Administrative Intern Contract with the Colorado Department of Local Affairs, and $13,000 will come from Community Development Block Grant Administrative funds. The City will incur certain expenses in administering the contract, providing a computer and office space, and supervising the intern.
