Approve the allocation of up to$4,560,000.00 from the American Rescue Plan Act funds, Subtitle M (Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds)for a transfer to capital for the reinstatement of(10)ten deferred or suspended projects; 2. Adopt the attached ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Capital Projects Federal Fund,in the total amount of$4,560,000.00,transferred from the Grants Operating Federal Fund,for the purpose of funding reinstated projects(City Project Nos. 101740, 101437, 103661, 102447, 102511, 102514, 102515, 102513, 102634 and 100238); 3. Adopt the attached ordinance, increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Public Events Capital Fund in the amount of $450,000.00,from available funds,for the purpose of funding the WRMC Auditorium Roof Replacement(City Project No. 100238)as proposed in the Fiscal Years 2022-2026 Public Events Capital Improvement Plan; 4. Adopt the attached ordinance amending the Fiscal Years 2022-2026 Public Events Capital Improvement Plan by adjusting estimated receipts and appropriations in the Public Events Capital Fund as follows: 1. increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the WRMC Security Cameras project(City Project No. 102511)by$100,000.00 and decreasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the WRMC Minor Renovations and Repairs project(City Project P00054)by the same amount;and 2. increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Amon Carter EH Door Replacement project(City Project No. 101437)by $5,911.85, in the WRMC Justin Garage Ventilation project(City Project No. 102447)by$11,982.65,and in the WRMC Auditorium Roof Replacement project(City Project No. 100238)by$200,000.00 and decreasing the WRMC Minor Renovations and Repairs project(City Project P00054)by$217,894.50. DISCUSSION: This Mayor and Council Communication (M&C)allocates and/or reallocates a total of$5,327,894.50,the bulk of which is$4,560,000.00 in American Rescue Plan Act(ARPA)Funding for the reinstatement of(10)ten Public Events Department facility capital improvement projects that were deferred and/or suspended in Fiscal Years(FY)2020 and 2021 due to the loss of Hotel Occupancy Taxes as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic. An additional$100,000.00 for the WRMC Security Cameras is appropriated from the Public Events Department WRMC Minor Renovation and Repair programmable capital provided from the FY2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program, and therefore the actions in this M&C will amend the Fiscal Years 2022-2026 Capital improvement Program as approved in connection with Ordinance 25073-09-2021. This M&C also allocates $450,000.00 for the WRMC Roof Repairs/Auditorium Roof Replacement,which was proposed in the Fiscal Years 2022-2026 Public Events Capital Improvement Plan but not included for approval in Ordinance 25073-09-2021. Finally,previous appropriations of$217,894.50 from prior Public Event Department(PED)annual Capital Improvement Program(CIP) appropriations will be adjusted by adoption of this M&C to convert the Amon Carter EH Door Replacement(City Project No. 101437),the WRMC Justin Garage Ventilation(City Project No. 102447), and the WRMC Roof Repairs/Auditorium Roof Replacement(City Project No. 100238)from programmable projects to static capital projects.This action is needed as the status of these projects now differs with the addition of grant funding City Council received Informal Report No.21-10671 on September 21,2021 providing background on the deferral and suspension of capital projects for the Public Events Department in FY2020 and FY2021 due to the loss of Hotel Occupancy Taxes as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the proposal to reinstate those improvement projects using ARPA funding, now being authorized through this M&C. As part of the effort to ensure that the Culture and Tourism funds could meet operating expenses and debt service obligations,in FY2020 and thereafter until the economic recovery began,selected capital improvements at the Will Rogers Memorial Center(WRMC)and Fort Worth Convention Center (FWCC)were suspended or deferred on August 25,2020 when M&C 20-0597 took the formal actions necessary to revise appropriations and eliminate the planned budgeted transfer in the amount of$3,570,294.00 from the HOT 2%Fund to the Public Events Capital Fund. All HOT 2%tax revenue collected in FY2020 was instead used to meet debt obligations for the fiscal year. Because HOT collections continued to lag for the first half of FY2021,again there were no capital transfers in FY2021 for the Public Events Capital Fund from the HOT 2% Fund for capital improvements. The following ten projects were impacted and are being reinstated through the actions of this M&C.Additional details can be found in the project description attachment: Project Name Project Existing Existing CIP CIP FY22 ARPA Funding Total Project Number Appropriation Appropriation Appropriation (New Funding (Static) (Conversion) Ordinance Appropriation) FY22 Richardson Bass 101740 $63,255.34 $935,000.00 $998,255.34 (Sound)System Upgrade Amon Carter EH 101437 $5,911.85 $495,000.00 $500,911.85 Door Replacement WRMC Sprinklers 103661 $300,000.00 $550,000.00 $850,000.00 Cattle Barn#4 WRMC Justin 102447 $11,982.65 $368,500.00 $380,482.65 Garage Ventilation WRMC Security 102511 $100,000.00 $110,000.00 $210,000.00 Cameras WRMC Replace 102514 $192,500.00 $192,500.00 Auditorium Curtains FWCC Star Tower 102515 $165,000.00 $165,000.00 Facade WRMC Electrical 102513 $550,000.00 $550,000.00 Upgrades WRMC 102634 $165,000.00 $165,000.00 Emergency Generator Enhancement WRMC Auditorium 100238 $50,000.00 $200,000.00 $450,000.00 $1,029,000.00 $1,729,000.00 Roof Replacement Total Project $113,255.34 $217,894.50 $300,000.00 $550,000.00 $4,560,000.00 $5,741,149.84 Appropriations Actions in this $0.00 $217,894.50 $0.00 $550,000.00 $4,560,000.00 $5,327,894.50 M&C ALLOCATION OF ARPA SUBTITLE M FUNDING ARPA allows local governments to invest in tourism-related programs to revive their visitor economies with Subsection 603(c)(1)(A)of Title VI of the Social Security Act(added by ARPA)specifically authorizing aid to"impacted industries such as tourism,travel,and hospitality."The identified Public Events capital projects assist in the on-going recovery effort of the City's tourism industry and as such have been determined to be a qualified priority by City Management for ARPA funding as approved by the City Council in M&C 21-0445 on June 22,2021.
