and the Transfer of $53,265.00 from the Special Trust Fund to the Stormwater Utility Fund for Cost Savings

RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize transfer of $235,329.89 from the Specially Funded Capital Projects Fund to the Special Trust
Fund;
2. Adopt attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Special

DISCUSSION:
On October 6, 2009, (M &C C- 23833) the City Council authorized a contract to relocate the City's Auto
Pound Facility to facilitate construction improvements related to the Trinity River Vision (TRV) project. The
cost for the project included $1,094,720.00 in funding from the Special Trust Fund previously established
for TRV related projects. The Auto Pound Facilities project has been successfully completed and closed
out with a remaining balance of $235,329.89 that needs to be returned to the Special Trust Fund for use
on future TRV related projects. The relocation of the Auto Pound facility to the former Brennan Avenue
Service Center, along with all of the recent growth in far north Fort Worth, has resulted in the need for a
new service center to be developed north of Loop 820 to more efficiently serve north Fort Worth.
On December 13, 2011, (M &C L- 15298) the City Council authorized the acquisition of a 75.732 acre tract
of land located at the northeast corner of U.S. Highway 287 and Bonds Ranch Road to be developed as a
future City service center to house the activities of various City departments. Work is currently underway
to develop a schematic site plan and grading plan for the ultimate build out of this facility while the seller
completes the infrastructure (water, sewer, paving) work required to serve the facility. As part of the
purchase Agreement, the seller also agreed to grade the site in conformance with the City's site plan. In
order to maintain the project schedule associated with the purchase Agreement approved as part of M &C

L- 15298, the Transportation and Public Works Stormwater Division agreed to pay for the costs of the site
planning work from their operating funds. Authorizing the transfer of $53,265.00 from the Special Trust
Fund to the Stormwater Utility Fund will reimburse the Utility for the initial use of their operating funds.
The new Service Center is physically located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7, however, it will serve citizens
throughout north Fort Worth including COUNCIL DISTRICTS 2, 4 and 7.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations
and the adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances, funds will be available in the current operating
budgets, as appropriated, of the Special Trust Fund and the Stormwater Utility Fund.
