Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved As Amended on 11/29/2005
DATE: Tuesday, November 29, 2005
LOG NAME: 20BEECHWOOD REFERENCE NO.: C-21173
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of Amendment to the Community Facilities Agreement with Fossilwood
Investments, L.P. to Provide Additional Funding for the Construction of the Double Eagle Parkway
Bridge; and Execute an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement with Denton County for Receipt of County
Funding
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement with Denton County for
receipt of County funding dedicated toward the construction of the Double Eagle Parkway Bridge; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to the Community Facilities Agreement (CFA)
with Fossilwood Investments, L.P. to provide for additional funding for the construction of the Double Eagle
Parkway Bridge.
DISCUSSION:
The City executed a CFA with Fossilwood Investments, L.P. (Developer), for the Double Eagle Parkway
Bridge over Harriet Creek on December 21, 2004 (City Secretary Contract Number 31076). The CFA
requires that the City reimburse the Developer for a portion of the project costs through the creation of a
sinking fund; reimbursements from the sinking fund are to be made in annual installments based on tax
increment revenue generated from the surrounding development. Following execution of the CFA, the
County independently agreed to contribute $300,000 (County Contribution) toward project costs that are not
reimbursable by the City under the CFA.
The attached Interlocal Agreement between Denton County and the City of Fort Worth designates the City's
CFA as the mechanism for reimbursement of both City and County funds. The Agreement specifies that
the County contribution will be paid directly to the City upon receipt of invoices and supporting materials
indicating the completion and City acceptance of reimbursable items.
The attached amendment to the CFA stipulates that, upon receipt of all or any portion of the County
contribution, the City will deposit such County Contribution into the sinking fund created for project
reimbursement. Upon payment by the City of the next annual installment toward reimbursement, the City
shall also pay to the Developer the County contribution. However, in no event shall any payment of City
and County funds exceed 100% of Developer's expenditures.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
