DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to appropriate funds and increase receipts for continued maintenance of the Texas Department of Transportation(TXDOT)signals for Fiscal Year 2023 in the amount of$369,235.32 in 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,twelve 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 adopting an appropriation ordinance for funds received from TXDOT in the amount of$561,417.00 for Fiscal Years 2017,2018 and 2019. On May 16,2019,City Secretary Contract No.42231 S2 increased the annual compensation amount to$369,235.32 and added additional locations to the contract. On August 13,2019,the City Council approved M&C 19-0027 adopting an appropriation ordinance for funds received from the TXDOT in the amount of$585,541.35 for fiscal years 2019 and 2020.

On January 11,2022,the City Council approved M&C 22-0023 adopting an appropriation ordinance in the amount of$369,235.32 for fiscal year 2022. The agreement with TXDOT also allows for the City of Fort Worth to seek reimbursement for non-routine repairs made to damage state-owned traffic signals that result from crashes or acts of God.The amount reimbursed annually for non-routine repairs varies but is typically less than $50,000.00. For Fiscal Year 2023,there is no request for additional appropriations for non-routine repairs.
