Dinosaur seeks RTAP assistance to ready community projects for future grants

Town of Dinosaur Town Council · August 11, 2026

Summary

The town applied for Colorado OEDIT's Rural Technical Assistance Program seeking planning and technical support for projects including a community center concept, sidewalks and water-system hardening.

Town staff told the council the Town of Dinosaur submitted an application to the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT) Rural Technical Assistance Program (RTAP) by the Aug. 7 deadline to secure technical assistance rather than construction funding. "The application seeks technical assistance rather than direct construction funding and is intended to help prepare projects for future grant opportunities." Priority projects noted include a community center/outdoor recreation concept, sidewalks, water-system hardening/security and utility infrastructure needs.

Staff said RTAP support could help consolidate prior planning documents, facilitate community input and strengthen future grant applications. The council gave staff direction to continue pursuing technical assistance and to refine project scopes for potential future funding.
