MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDINGanima 140. l').
CITY $ECR'I'ARY
East Rosedale from US 287 to Stalcup
City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Regional Transportation Council,
and Texas Department of Transportation
This memorandum of understanding (MOU) is intended to outline the agreement regarding the funding and
implementation strategy for East Rosedale from U S. 287 to Stalcup.
I. BACKGROUND
1
In 1999, the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) funded the East Rosedale project from U S. 287 to Stalcup.
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) provided additional Strategic Priority funds (of $3 million) in
2001. Since that time, both the City of Fort Worth and Tarrant County have contributed additional funds for this
project. The scope of work has been discussed and debated for many years culminating in a decision in
January 2011 to reconstruct 4 lanes to 4 lanes with intersection and safety improvements, and to add urban
design amenities, such as wide sidewalks, street furniture, landscaping, lighting, etc. The design process will
require several intensive community meetings throughout the design process in order to identify the final product
that meets the unique history and needs of the community. With such a long history, the funding agencies find it
necessary to codify the scope, funding, and responsibilities of each entity in order to provide assurances to the
local community that the project will be delivered in a timely manner.
Through this document, the impacted parties hereby state the terms of agreement and concur with the resulting
commitments made as a part of this funding and implementation strategy.
II. CONSTRUCTION PHASING
The project is described as the reconstruction and rehabilitation of East Rosedale from U S 287 to Stalcup with
intersection and safety improvements and urban design amenities. The City of Fort Worth will coordinate with
local community groups to determine which urban design amenities are most appropriate for this corridor.
Construction will be split into two phases with the first phase being implemented from U S. 287 to West of Miller
as four lanes undivided and with the second phase being implemented from West of Miller to Stalcup as four
lanes divided with a raised median. It is noted that a separate, but related project was funded through the 2009-
2010 Sustainable Development Program. This project, called the Polytechnic/TWU Streetscape Enhancements
project, will add pedestrian amenities and improve traffic signalization on East Rosedale between Nashville and
Collard Streets, and will be combined into Phase I of the East Rosedale corridor project.

City of Fort Worth for completion.

Regional Toll Revenue funds and $375,000 local funds] for pedestrian amenities and signalization). Also

assumes that $1,500,000 in funding from the Polytechnic/TWU Streetscape Enhancements project is Regional
Toll Revenue funds, resulting in the limits ending West of Miller instead of at Miller as originally discussed. The
City of Fort Worth will bid the Polytechnic/TWU Streetscape Enhancements project elements as Unit 2 of the
Phase I roadway project to verify that the original $1,875,000 funding commitment is met.

IV. FUNDING

City of Fort Worth (2004 Bond Program).
City of Fort Worth (2000 Bond Program):
Tarrant County (2006 Bond Program):
Regional Toll Revenue funds

$7,994,000
$1,500,000
$375,000
$15,526,301
Tarrant County Bond funds are fixed; therefore, the City of Fort Worth will pay for any cost overruns or change
order expenses on Phase I (the City may recoup any cost overruns for the Polytechnic/ Wesleyan Sustainable
Development project from the private developer as appropriate). This memorandum of understanding does not
encumber Tarrant County funds, bond or otherwise; as funds are encumbered via an interlocal agreement
between Tarrant County and the City of Fort Worth. County Bond funds are limited to street construction,
sidewalks, basic landscaping, and basic illumination; therefore, City funds will be used for enhancements (such
as landscaping, lighting, etc.). Note that the federal swap for RTR funds was formally approved on October 13,
2011.
Phase II — from West of Miller to Stalcup
TxDOT PE Funds

If Phase I or Phase II incur cost underruns, the funding will be retained until both phases are fully completed.
Savings as a result of cost underruns will be redistributed equally based off each entity's' initial contribution.
Cost overruns on Phase II will be shared by the RTC and the City of Fort Worth unless the overrun can be
covered by Phase I underruns.

*If ROW/Utility Adjustments are required and federal reimbursement is sought, the anticipated start date will be
delayed until after environmental clearance is completed.
** This is an RTC high -priority project. If cash flow is made available in 2013 or 2014, the construction phase
will be advanced appropriately. Currently, funding for construction is not available until FY 2015.
