Thereafter, the statute provides for the use of accrued benefits (sick leave, vacation time, etc.) in combination with Workers' Compensation benefits (where applicable) to insure continuation of full salary during an extended period of disability. On April 3, 1990, Mr. Gentry will have received one full year of injury leave of absence with full pay, a portion of which has been comprised of Workers' Compensation benefits. Mr. Gentry will continue to receive weekly workers' compensation benefit checks ($238 per week) until such time as his eligibility changes; i.e., the claim is resolved, through release to return to work, etc. As of April 7, 1990, he may choose to use his accumulated benefits (vacation, sick leave, etc.) in combination with workers' compensation weekly benefits to ensure continuity of his full salary. The accumulated benefits and future accruals combined with workers' compensation benefits will ensure the equivalent of a full salary for approximately 8 months. Chapter 143 also allows an injured firefighter the option to request from the City Council an extension of the injury leave of absence with full pay upon the expiration of the one-year period. Mr. Gentry requested such an extension in correspondence dated March 2, 1990, rather than use his accrued benefits.

COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT REVOLVING LOAN FUND (RLF) PROGRAM .1 Minutes of City Council 0-3 Page 411 412 TUESDAY, APRIL 3, 1990 M&C C-12254 cont. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to: 1. Execute a contract with the Fort Worth Economic Development Corporation (FWEDC) for the operation of the Commercial Development Revolving Loan Program for the period of June 1, 1990 to May 31, 1991; 2. Authorize the .use of up to $113,082 in interest earned and $2,500 in fees earned for services provided to clients for administration of the Commercial Development Revolving Loan Program; and 3. Authorize the use of up to $350,000 and any additional loan repayment funds received for seven (7) new Commercial Revolving Loans. DBUSSTON- The Fort Worth Economic Development Corporation administers a Commercial Development Revolving Loan Program which provides low-interest business loans to businesses operating within the Mid -South, Near Southeast, Near North, and Riverside Coordinated Neighborhood Revitalization (CNR) areas. This program has operated since 1981, with an Economic Development Administration grant of $1,000,000 and $490,000 in CDBG matching funds. Administrative functions of the Revolving Loan Program include continued marketing of the RLF program to the CNR businesses and bankers, screening, packaging, processing, and presenting loan packages to the Loan Review Committee, and servicing of loans. Funding for the administration of the Revolving Loan Program comes from interest paid on the revolving loans and fees collected for services provided to clients. The total interest earned in Year XV through January, 1990 was $74,724, which represents a monthly average of $9,341. $113,082 in interest earned is allocated for Year XV administrative expenses of the Revolving Loan Program. There is approximately $301,321 currently available for Revolving Loans, of which $299,000 has been committed to loans approved by FWEDC's loan committee. FWEDC's goal for Year XV was the closing of seven loans. To date, eight loan packages have been presented to the Loan Review Committee, of which four have been approved. One client withdrew his request after his loan was approved; six loans are expected to close. The Loan Review Committee has been cautious in approving high risk loans because, of the thirty-three loans made since the program began, four have defaulted, three are currently in default, and two others are having difficulty meeting their payment schedules. According to FWEDC, because of the cautious lending practices of the banking community, the current economic climate, and the fact that FWEDC is a lender of last resort, about 50% of its loan packages require intensive servicing on the part of the staff. This serving includes working with a business and its attorney, monitoring the business' financial records, and ensuring that insurance is current. FWEDC is also handling the Polytechnic Revolving Loan Program with no additional administrative funding. During its March 12, 1990 meeting, the Community Development Council approved the use of these funds. FINANCING: The $115,582 for program administration will consist of a maximum of $113,082 from total interest projected to be earned from loan repayments from June 1, 1990 to May 31, 1991, and is contingent on the collection of actual interest payments, and deposited into Grant Fund 76, Project No. 206088-89. The $2,500 in additional administrative funds are fees projected to be earned from services to clients. Funding for the revolving loans in the amount of $350,000 consists of $7,217 remaining in Grant Fund 76, Project No. 206079-88, $308,472 remaining in Grant Fund 76, Project No. 206060-00 FWEDC cash balance included in subsidiary No. 126300001 as of 1/31/90, from repayments of loans already made and a maximum of $34,311 contingent on interest projected to be earned from loan repayments over and above that to be used for administration, and deposited into Grant Fund 76, Project No. 206060-00., Council Member Chappell advised the City Council of a conflict of interest involving a contract with Fort Worth Economic Development Corporation Commercial Development Revolving Loan Fund Program and requested City Council permission to abstain from voting on Mayor and Council Communication No. C-12254. Council Member Granger advised the City Council of a conflict of interest involving Fort Worth Economic Development Corporation and advised City Council that she will be abstaining from the vote on Mayor and Council Communication No. C-12254. Council Member McCray made a motion, seconded by Council Member Zapata, that Council Member Chappell be permitted to abstain from voting on Mayor and Council Communication No. C-12254.

This project was the last project placed out for bid that did not contain this requirement. As this is a major thoroughfare being reconstructed with concrete pavement, it is desirous that all joints receive a silicone sealant. The contractor has agreed to do this additional work at a cost of $1.66 per L.F. (linear foot), a cost of $30,162.20 for 18,170 L.F., and five (5) additional working days. Further, this project requires construction within the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way. The railroad requires protective insurance to be provided by the contractor, at a cost of $750.00.

Lambrecht Construction in the amount of $646,500.00 providing for the excavation of additional waste material beyond the estimated quantities stated in the bid documents, raising the total contract to $5,453,917.67. IfUTIMd7ill L IBE On January 30, 1990 (M&C C-12134), the City Council awarded a contract to T.J. Lambrecht Construction in the amount of $4,807,417.67 for improvements to the S.E. Landfill and channelization of Village Creek. During the course of excavation, large quantities of previously landfilled garbage and other debris were discovered far beyond the quantities provided for in the bid documents. The debris was apparently covered over prior to the City's purchase of the site in 1967 and was not discovered by the exploratory drilling done during the design phase of the project. The contract proposal quantities were 1000 C.Y. for debris and 138,600 C.Y. for landfill waste excavation. Due to the location of the material, the contractor will be required to protect the excavation with temporary levees and daily cover. In addition, it must provide additional fill material and additional daily cover to the City's landfill contractor and handle contaminated water. Staff has explored various options for accomplishing the additional work since the unit price of $16.50 per C.Y. for 1000 C.Y. of debris in the proposal did not reflect the nature of the work to be done. The options included contract termination, directed force account, stop work and obtain new bid for the removal of the additional material, and negotiating a new unit price for the additional material. The option determined to be most favorable to the City involved a new unit price for the 54,000 C.Y. of additional material classified as debris of $11.00 per C.Y. The established unit price of $1.50 per C.Y. for the 35,000 C.Y. of additional material classified as municipal waste will be unchanged. The total value of this option based on the estimated quantities is $646,500 and includes all items incidental to the excavation and removal including Minutes of City Council 0-3 Page 421 422 TUESDAY, APRIL 3, 1990 M&C C-12266 cont. temporary levee construction, additional replacement fill, additional daily cover, and care and handling of contaminated water.
