Opioid Abatement Council, Infrastructure Share Grant Opportunity Questions

The purpose of the Infrastructure Share is to promote capital improvements and provide operational assistance for developing or improving the infrastructure necessary to abate the opioid crisis within the state of Colorado. The Infrastructure Share is intended to supplement opioid settlement funds requested by any party or region.

The aim of these funds is to supplement the regional share by providing additional funds to areas of greatest need for more robust infrastructure. In addition, these funds are intended to encourage cross-regional collaboration between the 19 opioid settlement regions.

Questions about this funding opportunity may be submitted until Monday, November 21 at 5pm, via this form.

Colorado’s New Statewide Energy Benchmarking Program – Upcoming deadline for building owners December 1st!

Building Performance Colorado (BPC) is Colorado’s new statewide benchmarking program created as a result of House Bill 21-1286, or the “Energy Performance for Buildings” Statute. The program requires owners of large commercial, multifamily, and public buildings 50,000 square feet and larger to report their annual energy use to the Colorado Energy Office (CEO). The first benchmarking reporting deadline for building owners is December 1, 2022 for calendar year 2021 energy use data. If you aren’t sure whether one of your county buildings falls under these new requirements, use this Building ID Tool or contact the Help Center with information provided below.

Please visit the Building Performance Colorado (BPC) website to learn more about the State’s benchmarking program and how to submit your benchmarking report, or to check out the free training and resources the program provides.
