RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:

5. Authorize the City Manager to nominate projects for the North Central Texas Council of Governments

DISCUSSION:
In the FY 2004 and FY 2005 federal appropriations bills, the City of Fort Worth received earmarks totaling
$4,484,000.00 ("Urban Village Funds") in transportation funds through the Federal Highway Administration's
Section 115 Demonstration Program. These funds are to be allocated for projects within designated urban
villages. In addition, NCTCOG issued a call for projects on October 17 to public agencies in order to fund
up to approximately $40 million in transportation improvements throughout the region ("Sustainable
Development Funds"). NCTCOG has set aside $12.6 million of these funds for the Western subregion --
which includes the City of Fort Worth -- for projects around transit stations; for pedestrian -oriented infill
projects in historic downtowns; and for infill projects in low-income, high unemployment, and high vehicle
emission areas.
On November 1, 2005, the Central City Revitalization and Economic Development Committee (CCREDC)
endorsed the release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) to allocate Urban Village Funds and to nominate
projects for the NCTCOG Sustainable Development Funds. In accordance with the CCREDC
endorsement, the City issued an RFP on November 2, 2005.
On December 1, 2005, the City received 31 proposals for urban village funding or sustainable development

Public Works, Economic and Community Development, Parks and Community Services, Engineering, and

On December 23, 2005, the City Plan Commission (CPC) reviewed the staff evaluations and recommended
funding five urban villages for planning, design and construction; and funding another seven urban villages
for planning only, as specified in Attachment A. The CPC also recommended the nomination of seven
projects for Sustainable Development funding as specified in Attachment B. The City Council received a
