LOG NAME: 55AFWRAMPMATCH
SUBJECT:
Authorize Transfer of Funds in the Amount of$15,986.55 from the Municipal Airports Fund to the Municipal
Airports Grants Fund for the City's Grant Match for the Alliance Airport's Routine Airport Maintenance
Project Grant from the Texas Department of Transportation and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance (COUNCIL
DISTRICT 7)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize a transfer in the amount of$15,986.55 from the Municipal Airports Fund to the Municipal
Airports Grants Fund as a part of the City's 50 percent grant match for the Routine Airports Maintenance
Grant from the Texas Department of Transportation; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Municipal Airports Grants Fund in an amount of$15,986.55.
DISCUSSION:
Each year, the City of Fort Worth receives a grant offer from the Texas Department of Transportation
(TxDOT)to provide needed routine maintenance and capital projects at Fort Worth Alliance Airport
(Alliance Airport)with a total eligibility amount up to $100,000.00. This grant requires a 50 percent match
of eligible project costs or up to the amount of$50,000.00, whichever is less. Alliance Air Services, the
company that manages Alliance Airport, reimburses the City of Fort Worth for 50 percent of eligible costs
or up to the amount of$50,000.00, whichever is less. One of the projects that was paid for by the RAMP
grant was the installation of security fencing at the Alliance Control Tower. Because the Aviation
Department is directly responsible for paying for expenses related to the Control Tower, we did not seek
reimbursement from Alliance Air Services for the cost of the improvements.
This M&C is necessary to provide for 50 percent of the projects costs, which is considered a part of the
City's grant match.
Alliance Airport is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7.
This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the
attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated,
of the Municipal Airports Grants Fund.
