Funding Agreement for Voluntary Local Government Contributions;
2. Rescind Resolution 5236-05-2020 adopted May 19, 2020; and

construction of North Tarrant Parkway Bridge over US 287 (City Project No. 102611).
DISCUSSION:
On May 19, 2020, City Council approved M&C 20-0333 authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to a funding agreement with
the Texas Department of Transportation in the approximate amount of $8,068,892.00, of which city participation is $1,653,702.00, for
reconstruction of Harmon Road bridge and construction of North Tarrant Parkway bridge over US 287. The original funding agreement originated
in 2004 and was amended and supplemented over time as discussed in M&C 20-0333.
Subsequent to the council's action, the Texas Department of Transportation contract staff provided a new, stand-alone funding agreement instead
of an amendment, thus requiring this amendment M&C and the actions regarding the resolutions to remove the reference to "Amendment No. 2".
All other elements of the original M&C remain unchanged.
The Harmon Road and North Tarrant Parkway bridges are located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 2 and 7.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This contract will be with a governmental entity, state agency or public institution of higher education: Texas
