Page 1 of 3 City of Fort Worth, Texas Mayor and Council Communication COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 4/17/2007 - Ordinance No. 17505-04-2007 DATE: Tuesday, April 17, 2007 LOG NAME: 21RTCALTFUELVEH REFERENCE NO.: **C-22064 SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of a Grant Agreement with the Regional Transportation Council of the North Central Texas Council of Governments for Reimbursement for the Purchase of 16 Alternate Fueled or Low Emission Vehicles and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Authorize the City Manager to execute the grant agreement with the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) of the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) in the amount of $323,777.60 for the purchase of 16 vehicles (alternate fueled and low emission); 2. Authorize the City Manager to accept an amount not to exceed $259,022 in federal funds passed through the North Central Texas Council of Governments for the reimbursement of the purchase of 16 vehicles (alternate fueled and low emission); 3. Authorize the transfer of $64,755.60 from General Fund various departments operating budget to the Grant Fund for the City's 20 percent match of the purchase; 4. Authorize the reduction in appropriations in various General Fund Departments and increase appropriations in General Fund Non-departmental in the amount of $226,076.00 for the purchase of additional vehicles; and 5. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing the estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grant Fund by $323,777.60. DISCUSSION: The Dallas/Fort Worth Metropolitan Area is categorized as a non-attainment area for ozone. As such, the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 require the area to show control strategies that will reduce emissions. The Regional Transportation Council (RTC), serving as the transportation policy board of the Metropolitan Planning Organization for the Dallas-Fort Worth area, initiated the 2006 Clean Fleet Vehicle Call for Projects. Funding for this project is through the US Department of Transportation, CFDA No. 20.205, Highway Planning and Construction and are allocated in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and subsequently approved as part of the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). Through this funding program, the RTC will fund clean vehicle projects to help reduce Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emissions from local government fleet vehicles. Eligible project types include new purchases, replacements, retrofits, repowers, and conversions of heavy-duty and light-duty vehicles. Funds can be used to reimburse up to 80 percent of the purchase price less residual value of a new replacement vehicle. On April 4, 2006, the City Council adopted the Clean Fleet Vehicle Resolution (Resolution No. 3334-04- 2006) that outlined the acquisition, operational and maintenance standards required for submission to the http://www.cfwnet.org/council�acket/Reports/mc�rint.asp 6/20/2007 Page 2 of 3 2006 Clean Fleet Vehicle Call for Projects. On June 28, 2006, the Equipment Services Department submitted the response to the Call for Projects. Out of the 56 vehicles submitted for repiacement, 16 vehicles met the criteria and are recommended by NCTCOG for funding. During fiscal years 2007 through 2009, the recommended vehicles include 12 light duty vehicles and one heavy duty vehicle that significantly reduce emissions, and three electric hybrid vehicles. The cost associated with purchasing these vehicies less the estimated residual value is $323,777.60. Funding for the replacement of these vehicles was approved with the adoption of the FY2007 budget. Based on the RTC Program guidelines, the City is eligible to be reimbursed for 80 percent of that cost, or $259,022.00. These vehicles will be purchased using funds from the established grant fund that will be comprised of 80 percent appropriation based on funds awarded through the grant and 20 percent of funds transferred from departments. The remaining funds in the department accounts shall be transferred to the General Fund Non-departmental budget and used to buy additional replacement vehicles. Reimbursement is contingent upon the vehicle being disposed in accordance with guidelines established in the agreement. Current guidelines indicate that the engine and/or vehicle must be destroyed or rendered inoperative, and documentation must be provided. Alternate methods of disposal may be approved by NTCOG prior to filing for the reimbursement. The additional $226,076.00 in non-departmental will be used to replace six additional vehicles in the City's fleet. The six additional replacement vehicles consists of two light duty vehicles, two heavy duty vehicles, and two off road vehicles. Of the six vehicles, The Parks and Community Services (PACS) Department will receive four. The remaining two vehicles go to the Transportation/Public Works department and to the Public Events department. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that upon execution of the grant agreement with the Regional Transportation Council of the North Central Texas Council of Governments and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of the Grant Fund.
