RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:

$482,495.00 transferred from available funds within the Water and Sewer Fund for the Precinct Line Road project (City Project Number C00147);

DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to provide funding from the 2008 Bond Program residuals for improvements to
widen Precinct Line Road from two -lanes to four -lanes from State Highway 10 to Concho Trail including a new four lane bridge over Walker Branch
and intersection improvements at Trinity Boulevard. This project includes reconstructed travel lanes, left and right turn lanes, storm drain
improvements, sidewalks, railroad crossing, bridge, and traffic signal improvements.
This final payment is required because of TxDOT's award of a construction contract above the amounts estimated in the Advance Funding
Agreement, quantity overruns and change orders, and their internal construction engineering, inspection and testing costs.
The total final payment to TxDOT is $2,737,043.83 and increases the City contribution to $8,192,457.30
Previous M&Cs approved by City Council for the Precinct Line Road Project (CPN C00147): C-26154, 3/19/13; C-27830, 8/2/16, and C-28940,
12/4/18, and administratively approved change orders for this project authorized total payments to TxDOT in the amount of $2,950,275.80. This
M&C will authorize payment to TxDOT in the amount of $2,246,940.34 from Precinct Line Road funds.
The Water Department paid TxDOT the amount $70,000.00 for Change Order No. 12 (M&C C-28093, 1/31/17). This final M&C will
authorize payment to TxDOT in the amount of $490,103.49 from Water Department funds.
The overall City project budget is $6,900,456.85 for Precinct Line Road (City Project No. 00147) and $1,292,000.45 for the Walker Branch Bridge
(City Project No. 00105). The total project budget is $19,960,690.30 and includes federal participation of $7,249,075.00, state participation of
$1,790,158.00, and Tarrant County participation of $2,729,000.00.
The completion of this project will have no significant impact on the general fund operating budget.
Construction was substantially complete in July 2017.
The City Council previously found that the street improvement projects in Proposition One of the 2008 Bond Program were substantially complete
and authorized the re -programming of residual funds that had been identified up to that point to other eligible projects (M&C G-18738). Since that
time, more of the completed projects have been balanced and closed and additional residuals have been identified. By approving this M&C and
adopting the attached ordinance, the City Council would be finding this project to be within the voted purpose of the bonds and to constitute an
eligible expenditure of these funds.
The Fiscal Year 2019 Water and Sewer Fund includes appropriations of $23,865,180.00 within the Water Operating Budget for the purpose of
providing Pay -As -You -Go Funding for Water Capital Projects. After this transfer for Fiscal Year 2019, the balance will be $52,896.00.
The project is in COUNCIL DISTRICT 5.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This contract will be with a governmental entity, state agency or public institution of higher education: TxDOT
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds will be abailable in the FY19 Water and Sewer Fund, and that upon adoption of the attached
appropriation ordinances, funds will be available in the current FY2019 capital budget, as appropriated, in the Water and Sewer Capital Projects
Fund and the Street Improvements 2008 Fund for the Precinct Line Road Project. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Water and
Transportaion & Public Works Departments have the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
