accordance with the Agreement between TxDOT and the City of Fort Worth.
History:
In 1987,the Texas Transportation Commission revised the State's policy that permitted the TxDOT district offices to establish a method to
reimburse cities with a population of over 50,000 for the installation,operation and maintenance of state-owned traffic signals.
On August 3, 1993,the City Council approved M&C C-13942 authorizing execution of an Agreement between TxDOT and the City of Fort Worth
(City Secretary Contract No. 19811)for TxDOT to pay a portion of the operation and maintenance costs of state-owned traffic signals within the
Fort Worth City limits. Since then, 12 supplemental Agreements have been executed to reflect additional traffic signal locations(City Secretary
Contract No.37068).
On November 6, 2012, the City Council approved M&C C-25951 authorizing execution of a new Agreement consolidating the previous
supplemental Agreements into one (City Secretary Contract No.44231). On February 26, 2013,the first supplemental to the Agreement(City
Secretary Contract No. 44231-S1) was executed to add six traffic signal locations and to revise the annual reimbursement amount to
$208,392.00.
On September 18,2018,the City Council approved M&C G-19368 authorizing an appropriation ordinance for funds received from TxDOT in the
amount of$561,417 for Fiscal Years 2017,2018 and 2019.
On May 16,2019,City Secretary Contract No.42231 supplemental 2 increased the annual compensation amount to$369,235.32 and added
additional locations to the contract.
The Agreement with TxDOT also allows for the City of Fort Worth to seek reimbursement for non-routine repairs made to damaged state-owned
traffic signals that result from crashes or weather events.The amount reimbursed annually for non-routine repairs varies but are typically less than
$50,000.00.
The Transportation and Public Works Department is responsible for the billing and collection of these funds.
