amount equal to or greater than the amount assessed for the improvements to
Carey Road, Unit 1A, from Wilbarger Street to E. Berry Street.
DISCUSSION:
The 1986-88 Capital Improvement Program approved in March, 1986, included
funds for the improvement of Carey Road, from E. Berry Street to US
Highway 287. The Street will be constructed in two units: from E. Berry to

right-of-way. Six-inch thick concrete driveway approaches will be
constructed where specified on the plans.

enhancement to property values that will result from the proposed
improvements. Based on standard City policy, the City Engineer's estimate,

Fort Worth City 872,506.50 (83%)
Total Project Cost $1,051,600.00

habilitation Loan
Program SUBJECT: SECTION 312 REHABILITATION LOAN PROGRAM FUNDING
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to
participate in the Section 312 Rehabilitation Loan Program under the
guidelines specified below. Funding will occur as available each fiscal
year.
DISCUSSION:
The Fort Worth Regional Office of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development anticipates that funds may be available for the Section 312
Rehabilitation Loan Program for fiscal year 1990 as early as January 1990.
Once available, these funds may be obtained by Section 312 participating
cities, of which Fort Worth is one, on a first -come -first-served basis.
The Housing Division of the Department of Housing and Human Services will be
offering this financial incentive to the public. It can be used to
rehabilitate single family, multi -family and commercial properties.
A summary of the Section 312 Rehabilitation Loan Program requirements are as
follows:
1) The loans cannot be used for new construction. Funds can only be used
for rehabilitation of an existing property which has one or more
deficiencies according to the local building code.
Indirect cost will not be applied to this Rehab Loan program since no
personnel costs are paid from these funds.
2) 1 Properties located in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Target, the Urban Development Action Grant (UDAG) "Pocket of Poverty",
and Urban Homesteading areas are the only ones which are eligible for

habilitation Loan
Program SUBJECT: SECTION 312 REHABILITATION LOAN PROGRAM FUNDING
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to
participate in the Section 312 Rehabilitation Loan Program under the
guidelines specified below. Funding will occur as available each fiscal
year.
DISCUSSION:
The Fort Worth Regional Office of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development anticipates that funds may be available for the Section 312
Rehabilitation Loan Program for fiscal year 1990 as early as January 1990.
Once available, these funds may be obtained by Section 312 participating
cities, of which Fort Worth is one, on a first -come -first-served basis.
The Housing Division of the Department of Housing and Human Services will be
offering this financial incentive to the public. It can be used to
rehabilitate single family, multi -family and commercial properties.
A summary of the Section 312 Rehabilitation Loan Program requirements are as
follows:
1) The loans cannot be used for new construction. Funds can only be used
for rehabilitation of an existing property which has one or more
deficiencies according to the local building code.
Indirect cost will not be applied to this Rehab Loan program since no
personnel costs are paid from these funds.
2) 1 Properties located in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Target, the Urban Development Action Grant (UDAG) "Pocket of Poverty",
and Urban Homesteading areas are the only ones which are eligible for
Section 312 financing.
3) The maximum loan amount is determined by the type of project, ranging
from $33,500 for single family properties to $200,000 for multi -family
and mixed-use properties. Loans exceeding $200,000 may not be made
unless approved by HUD.
4) The term of a loan contract cannot exceed 20 years, or three-fourths of
the remaining useful life of the property, whichever is less.
5) The interest rates are either three percent (3%) for owner -occupant
one -to -four unit residential properties; or, for all other loans, based
on the yield of U.S. Governmental securities of a comparable term.

DISCUSSION:
Since the revision of the Clean Water Act in 1977 by Congress, most major
point sources of water pollution in the United States have been identified
and controlled. Nonpoint source (NPS) pollution is now considered the most
significant pollutant contributor, by some estimates as much as 80%, to
Minutes of City Council 0-3 Page 18
wc
-TUESDAY. JANUARY 16. 1990
&C G-8426 cont. surface water (lakes, river, streams and estuaries). Nonpoint sources also
degrade the quality of groundwater. For the most part, these unknown or
nonpoint sources of pollution have been and continue to be ignored because
they cannot be easily identified, evaluated or monitored.
In 1987, Congress amended the Clean Water Act and placed special emphasis on
nonpoint source pollution and thus, set forth Environmental Protection
Agency's (EPA's) commitment to a nonpoint source program. On November 9,
1989, the President signed an appropriation bill which included $40 million
for grants to implement nonpoint source management programs in FY 90 under
section 319 of the Clean Water Act. Congress has also urged that the
programs be implemented as rapidly as possible. To accomplish this, the
grant proposals were due at TWC, January 9, 1990. The complete Texas package
is due at EPA January 16, 1990. To accommodate the time needed for our
City's communication and review process prior to submittal of grant
applications, TWC has agreed to hand -carry Fort Worth's application, pending
final approval by City Council to EPA on January 16, 1990. Funds are to be
awarded March 1, 1990.
PROPOSAL:
This proposal will combine joint funding from TWC and the City of Fort Worth
over a three (3) year period. Activities to be addressed by this joint
program effort are described below:
1. Water quality monitoring -- rapid assessment during dry weather (static)
'conditions by comparing three different techniques of monitoring.
2. Aggressive methods used to locate sewage in waterways will be compared
with the results of relying upon citizen complaints and those referred
from other agency sources. This will be accomplished by working with
the Water and Transportation/Public Works Departments.
3. The development and presentation of a nonpoint source classroom program
for primary and secondary schools.
4. Development of international "No Dumping" logo stencil for information/
warning message for curb inlets.
5. Purchase of mobile response vehicle.
The proposed budget will enable the nonpoint source pollution projects to be
accomplished. City staff will evaluate control measures and education
efforts. Additionally, City efforts expended on these projects will be used
to demonstrate management effort progress in the EPA's National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit which will be required of all
cities with more than 100,000 population.
PROPOSED BUDGET:
$90,000.00 $60,000.00 $150,000.00
FINANCING:
Funds will be provided from Water Department Fund 58, Project No. 017107-00,
Special Project; Health Department 50-30-04, Environmental Quality Services;

ordered that each of the structures be demolished in accordance with
Section 7-122 of the Code of the City of Fort Worth. Final approval by the
City Council is now required in order to demolish the structures and remove
debris from the lots.

SUBJECT: ALLIANCE AIRPORT PHASE II - CHANGE ORDERS 21, 22 AND 23
(T.L. JAMES & COMPANY)
ompany
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute
the following change orders to the contract with T. L. James & Company for
Phase II improvements at Alliance Airport:
1. Change Order No. 21 providing for the extension of the main runway by
300 feet inclusive of approach lights and paving at a cost of
$94,536.13;
2. Change Order No. 22 providing for the addition of an electrical duct
manhole near the lighting vault, revised duct sizes and locations, and
additional painting and marking of the main runway at a cost of
$10,278.21; and
3. Change Order No. 23 providing for curving crossover centerline lights on
runways and taxiways at a cost of $261,310.28.
DISCUSSION:
On October 25, 1988 (M&C C-11265), the City Council awarded a construction
contract to T. L. James & Company, Inc. for Phase II paving, lighting, and
drainage improvements at Alliance Airport in the amount of $19,820,408.70.
This contract has been subsequently amended by Change Orders 1 through 20 so
that the contract amount currently stands at $23,019,253.81.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 21:
Shortly after award of the original contract, the Federal Aviation
Administration recognized that an extension of the 8,200 foot runway would
add substantial capability to the airport. Although approval of the full
1,400 foot extension was delayed pending appropriate environmental studies
and public hearings, F.A.A. did approve and agree to fund a 300 foot
extension as an over -run area. This pavement will allow a buffer between
construction activity on the runway extension and air operations on the
original runway. Major cost items involve the placement of threshold lights

M&C C-12104 cont. and approach lights in the pavement, and higher paving costs resulting from
the location of the light fixtures. New work items amount to $135,533.12
adjusted for credits of $40,996.99 for a net of $94,536.13.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 22:
During the course of the contract, F.A.A. personnel requested extensive
additions to the duct bank system which necessitated larger manholes. The
addition of duct bank to serve the future control tower required an
additional manhole. After adjustment for deleted manholes and duct, the net
charge for additional work is $2,278.21. In addition, it was decided to
upgrade the airfield paint scheme to provide greater visibility to key
control points. The lump sum cost for this was $8,000.00. The total for the
change order was $10,278.21.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 23:
During the course of the project, F.A.A. agreed with the Perot Group and the
City to upgrade the airfield lighting to provide curving crossover centerline
lights on both the runway and the taxiways. The net effect of these
additional lights is to allow landing and taxi of aircraft under very low
visibility conditions. In addition to the cost of the fixtures, compensation
for lost time during paving operations is included in the amount of
$115,000.00. The total cost of the change order is $261,310.28.
