LETTER OF AUTHORIZATION Co��T�� �. --
North Central Texas
Regional Stormwater Management Program
FY2017 Administrative and Implementation Assistance
North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG)
The NCTCOG and the City of Fort Worth (hereafter referred to as the "participant") have executed an
Interlocal Agreement to provide a structure through which the participants can pursue initiatives that assist with
the Regional Stormwater Management Program. The Interlocal Agreement established a structure by which a
Regional Stormwater Management Coordinating Council may identify specific activities to be carried out by
NCTCOG, and/or professional agencies, with cost allocations to be determined through Coordinating Council
consensus. The participants to this agreement have reviewed the NCTCOG proposed work program for
FY2017, which includes NCTCOG assistance to the participants for administrative and implementation support
of stormwater related activities and the cost-share arrangement for funding of this effort.
In accordance with Article 2, Paragraph 5, and Article 5 of the Interlocal Agreement, the purpose of this letter is
to authorize the participant's cost-share of $22,603 for the FY2017 work program.
Execution of this Letter of Authorization is considered a formal part of the Interlocal Agreement, and obligates
the participant's cost share as identified above. If the participant fails to execute this agreement prior to
January 15, 2017, a 5% penalty will be added to the above cost-share amount for every complete quarter of
delay after the first. Once executed, billing of the participant by NCTCOG for these services will be made no
more frequently than quarterly. NCTCOG will invoice the participant for its costs incurred resulting from the
FY2017 work program, and the participant shall remit the amount of the invoice to NCTCOG within thirty (30)
calendar days of receipt of the invoice. In the event that the participant does not accept the goods or services
or finds an error in the invoice, the participant shall notify the NCTCOG Manager who is responsible for
executing this program as soon as possible within the 30 calendar day period, and shall make payment not
less than ten (10) calendar days after the problem(s) are corrected or the error is resolved to the satisfaction of
all parties. In the event that payment of invoiced goods or services is not received by the NCTCOG within 30
calendar days of receipt of the accepted invoice, NCTCOG is authorized to charge the participant interest in
accordance with the Prompt Payment Act. Participants that do not pay will not receive the benefits outlined in
the FY2017 work program.
Work under this program will be carried out from October 1, 2016 through September 30, 2017. It may become
necessary for work to continue beyond September 30, 2017 in order to complete the authorized FY2017 work
program. However, costs for the work program will not exceed the participant's cost-share as agreed to in this
Letter of Authorization.
Each individual signing this Letter of Authorization on behalf of a participant warrants that he or she is legally
authorized to do so and that the participant is legally authorized to perform the obligations undertaken. The
undersigned represent,�he agreement of NCTCOG and the Participant to these provisions and hereby execute
this AuthQrizatiQn in tr,(�licate originals.

HEARING:
SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of an Interlocal Agreement and Authorization Letter with the North
Central Texas Council of Governments for the Regional Storm Water Management
Program and Authorize Payment of Costs in the Amount of $20,427.00 (ALL COUNCIL
DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute an interlocal Agreement with the North Central Texas
Council of Governments for the period of October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2017; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute an authorization letter with the North Central Texas Council
of Governments which sets the City's annual cost share of NCTCOG's administrative and
implementation assistance for the regional storm water management program at $20,427.00 during
Fiscal Year 2012-2013.
DISCUSSION:
Stormwater regulations included in the Clean Water Act pose a significant impact for seven Metroplex
cities (Fort Worth, Dallas, Arlington, Garland, Irving, Plano and Mesquite), the North Texas Tollway
Authority and the Texas Department of Transportation District Offices in Fort Worth and Dallas. For
the past several years, representatives from these entities have worked together through the
NCTCOG's Regional Urban Storm Water Management Task Force in preparation for meeting storm
water permit requirements. Because all of the entities are required to implement many of the same
programs, the potential for cost sharing and coordination of programs exists.
The City first entered into an interlocal Agreement with the NCTCOG to cover administrative support
for regional initiatives in November 1993.The City Council approved the most recent interlocal
Agreement for this program on November 6, 2007, (M&C C-22508) for the period of October 1, 2007,
through September 30, 2012. This Mayor and Council Communication also set the City's annual cost
share of NCTCOG's administrative and implementation assistance for the regional storm water
management program at $18,454.00 for Fiscal Year 2007-2008.
The new interlocal Agreement with NCTCOG will be for the period of October 1, 2012 through
September 30, 2017.The annual authorization letter allocates the City's cost-share of $20,427.00 for
the administrative costs to be incurred by the NCTCOG during Fiscal Year 2012-2013 in support of
the Regional Urban Storm Water Management Task Force and its associated sub-committees.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating
budget, as appropriated, in the Environmental Protection Operating Fund.
