Amend M&C C-25481 to increase the amount of land credits used for the City's local in-kind grant match from five percent to ten percent of the $1,955,556.00 project cost and to increase the grant amount up to $1,760,000.00, if awarded a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration for the acquisition of avigation easements in accordance with the Part 150 Noise Mitigation Plan for Fort Worth Alliance Airport; and 2. Adopt attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Airports Grant Fund by $1,955,556.00, subject to receipt of the grant. DISCUSSION: On March 6, 2012, (M&C C-25481) City Council authorized the application for and acceptance of a grant, if awarded, in the amount of$1,672,000.00 for the acquisition of avigation easements as identified in the Noise Compatibility Program for Alliance Airport and to approve the use of land credits in the amount of $88,000.00 for the City's in-kind match. (It is more than five percent of total project cost.) After passage of the Mayor and Council Communication (M&C), Staff was notified that the Federal Aviation Administration is now requiring a grant match of ten percent of project costs. This M&C is necessary to increase the grant match from five percent to ten percent of the $1,955,556.00 in project costs. Approval of this M&C will result in an additional use of land credits in the amount of $107,556.00. In addition, the grant amount request is $1,760,000.00 instead of the $1,672,000.00 listed in M&C C-25481. The grant amount was inadvertently reduced by the amount of the grant match of $88,000.00. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2. FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
