The City of Fort Worth will use funding under the FY2011 PSN RFP grant to
enhance the Fort Worth Police Department's goal of reducing violent gang activity.

Worth. The specific area in South Division would include zone S-01. During 2010 this

enforcement action. Intelligence from confidential informants and other sources will be

HEARING.
SUBJECT: Authorize Correction of Mayor and Council Communication C-25352 to Change the Name
of the Awarding Agency from the North Central Texas Council of Governments to the
Mosaic Family Services for the Project Safe Neighborhood Grant in the Amount of
$5,000.00, Repeal Ordinance No. 20013-12-2011 and Adopt Corrected Appropriation
Ordinance (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the correction of Mayor and Council Communication C-25352 to change the name of the
awarding agency from the North Central Texas Council of Governments to the Mosaic Family
Services;
2. Repeal Ordinance No. 20013-12-2011; and
3. Adopt the attached corrected appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations in the Grants Fund in the amount of $51000.00.
DISCUSSION:
On December 13, 2011, (M&C C-25352) City Council authorized the acceptance of $5,000.00 in
grant funds under the Project Safe Neighborhood (PSN) program. M&C C-25352 also authorized the
adoption of an appropriation ordinance. After further review of the contract, Staff learned that the
fiscal agent under the 2011 PSN grant had changed from the North Central Texas Council of
Governments (NCTCOG) to Mosaic Family Services. The NCTCOG was the fiscal agent for the
previous year's PSN program, which led to confusion in the current contract.
Due to this change, all references to the awarding agency in M&C C-25352 need to be changed from
the NCTCOG to the Mosaic Family Services. Additionally, in regard to the fund center information for
this grant, the center number needs to be changed from 035203561000 to 035423560000 to reflect
reimbursements coming from the Mosaic Family Services rather than the NCTCOG. Finally,
appropriation ordinance No. 20013-12-2011 needs to be repealed and a corrected appropriation
ordinance needs to be approved. The remaining elements of M&C C-25352 remain the same.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above
recommendations, receipt of the grant, and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds
will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Grants Fund.
