The existing JaGee assemblage is located on approximately 15-acres fronting Camp Bowie, Arch Adams and West Seventh Street. It is a prime location for redevelopment given the surrounding historic neighborhoods as well as the 6,500 000 visitors to the Cultural District each year Using structured parking encapsulated m a higher density urban form, Museum Place will net residential densities of up to 50 D1J/AC and provide storefront retail along Camp Bowie, 7th Street and Bailey Avenue. The mixed-use of the entire village will be first floor retail with open storefront elevations and high transparency at street level. Restaurants with outdoor shaded dining will provide high activity levels at street front and corners. The grant funds will provide enhancements to the private investment by the addition of a restored urban block form. Each block will be reconfigured with head-m and parallel parking surrounding each block. Intersections will be rebuilt m a raised plateau form for better pedestrian use. They will create defined pedestrian zones with traffic calmed as vehicles enter the intersection. Wide sidewalks and curb bulb-outs will be added for outdoor dmmg areas and public gathering places. Street trees will be added to frame the pedestrian /public realm. Streetlights, bollards, benches and moveable chairs will add to the usability of the public areas. Defined crossings m the right of way will identify connections between the museum core and the Museum Place development. Improved signahzation will afford controlled pedestrian crossings of existing city streets. Additional enhancements will be added at the six point intersection to create an even greater pedestrian crossing potential connecting the new civic use, the U S Post Office and public plaza. Using grant funds will add the needed public right of way and pedestrian amenities to support the greater density Museum Place will add to the Seventh. Street corridor Providing transit stops as part of the entire development will encourage use of dedicated buses and ultimately light rail transit. Bike lanes added by the grant will connect the existing historic neighborhood with Trinity Park and the Trinity Trails system, promoting additional bike ridership The near Westside and Cultural District areas have seen an aging m place of its households with a 32% reduction in population over the last decade. The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth demolished 240 apartments as well as the Loring Hotel to build the museum which contributed significantly to the population drop Retail has seen a reduction in square footage due to the 2000 tornado which destroyed a number of neighboring retail buildings. This has created the additional opportunity for redevelopment at a higher and better use over nearly all the 15-acre development site.

Revised May 2006 Page 1 of 2 Resolution No 3373-06-2006 NCTCOG Sustainable Development Call for Projects Required Lead Public Sponsor Decision Regarding Project Start Date The impact of the staging group on project timing is dependent on a local choice between two options. Option 1 Standard Practice Option means the project waits until funds for the project are in a North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) account. Option 2 Local Float Option means the project begins after NCTCOG signs a contract with a local agency providing RTC Local Funds to NCTCOG and the local project sponsor (public or private) `floats the project until NCTCOG receives payment of RTC Local Funds to a NCTCOG account. A required element of the Governing Body Resolution is the lead public sponsor decision to select Option 1 or Option 2. In either case, transportation improvements cannot be reimbursed prior to the assigned project staging" date. OR Option 1 Standard Practice Option Lead public sponsor uses the assigned 'project staging" date as a start date for'the project, pending the receipt of a Notice to Proceed If RTC Local Funds are not available due to a default of local funds being paid to NCTCOG the project may be switched to federal funding This default situation would require a new contract with TxDOT and may result in a delay in the project. For example this default situation would occur if a NCTCOG member local government with a contract with NCTCOG to make payment of RTC Local Funds to NCTCOG is in violation of their contract with NCTCOG Option 2 Local Float Option Lead public sponsor uses the assigned project staging" date as a date for reimbursement only and begins the project on a locally set time schedule that begins after a project agreement is signed with NCTCOG Staff is authorized to develop interlocal agreements with RTC Local Funds that allow immediate construction with reimbursement to the lead public sponsor contingent upon the receipt of RTC Local Funds by NCTCOG Please note, NCTCOG will not sign Sustainable Development Project interlocal agreements until NCTCOG signs agreement(s) to receive RTC Local Funds. If a lead public sponsor selects this option choosing to move forward and complete their project prior to the assigned reimbursement date the lead public sponsor will be at risk" with regard to the default of local funds being paid to NCTCOG This option may preclude switching to Federal Funds in the event that RTC Local Funds are unavailable. For example, this default situation would occur if a NCTCOG member local government with a contract with NCTCOG to make payment of RTC Local Funds to NCTCOG is in violation of their contract with NCTCOG Revised May 2006 Page 2 of 2 Resolution No 3373-06-2006 ATTACHMENT 6 NCTCOG Sustainable Development Call for Projects Project Scope for Museum Place Project #• 343 Project Name.
