and in other ordinances of the City in which the Thirty-Second Supplement is referenced) for the purpose of extending the authority described below delegated to the City Manager and the Chief Financial Officer/Director of Financial 3 Management Services of the City, and to address the increase in program size for the issuance of Commercial Paper Notes; and WHEREAS, the City Council delegates to the City Manager and the Chief Financial Officer/Director of Financial Management Services of the City, individually, but not collectively (each, an "Authorized Representative") the authority to effect the sale of Bonds, subject to the parameters described in this Thirty-Second Supplement. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS: Section 1. DEFINITIONS. That in addition to the definitions set forth in the preamble of this Thirty-Second Supplement, the terms used in this Thirty-Second Supplement (except in the FORM OF BOND) and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given in the Master Ordinance, the Prior Supplements or in Exhibit A to this Thirty-Second Supplement. Any references in this Thirty-Second Supplement to the "FORM OF BOND" shall be to the form of the Bonds as set forth in Exhibit B to this Thirty-Second Supplement. Section 2. BONDS AUTHORIZED. (a) Bonds. That there shall be authorized to be issued, sold, and delivered hereunder the Bonds, in one or more series, payable to the respective initial registered owners thereof, or to the registered assignee or assignees of the Bonds or any portion or portions thereof, in an Authorized Denomination. The Bonds are hereby authorized to be issued, in one or more series, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $225,000,000, for the purpose of(i) refunding outstanding Commercial Paper Notes and (ii) paying the costs of issuance of the Bonds. The Bonds shall be designated as the "City of Fort Worth, Texas Water and Sewer System Revenue Refunding Bonds", with such additional or different designation or title as permitted by Section 3(b) of this Thirty-Second Supplement. The Bonds are authorized pursuant to Chapter 1207 and other applicable laws of the State of Texas. The City Council hereby finds that it is in the best interests of the City for the Bonds to be sold in such manner as determined by an Authorized Representative in manner provided in this Thirty- Second Supplement. By adoption of this Thirty-Second Supplement, the Chief Financial Officer/Director of Financial Management Services of the City, as an Authorized Representative, is designated as a special Acting Assistant City Manager for the limited purposes of executing certificates, agreements, notices, instruction letters, requisitions, and other documents on behalf of the City in accordance with this Thirty-Second Supplement. (b) Refunding. That the City hereby finds that the issuance of Bonds for the purpose of refunding Commercial Paper Notes is a public purpose. The Refunded Commercial Paper Notes are being refunded to convert interim financing into long-term fixed rate financing, as contemplated by the City in the operation of the interim financing program for the System, and the manner in which the refunding of the Refunded Commercial Paper Notes is being executed by the City makes it impracticable to make the determinations required by subsection (a) of Section 1207.008, Texas Government Code. The Refunded Commercial Paper Notes shall be those outstanding Commercial Paper Notes to be refunded and retired with a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $225,000,000 in principal amount, as designated in a letter of instructions delivered by the Chief Financial Officer/Director of Financial Management Services of the City. For the sole purpose of establishing for the benefit of the Public Finance Division of the Office of the Attorney General of Texas that the City possesses sufficient Pledged Revenues to pay the Commercial Paper Notes and the interest 4 thereon, the City shall establish sufficiency through the issuance of bonds on a parity with the Bonds under authority of Chapter 1207 at then current market interest rates with level debt service over a forty (40) year period to refinance such Commercial Paper Notes, under authority of Section 1371.057(c), Texas Government Code. Section 3. DELEGATION OF SALE OF BONDS; PARAMETERS. (a) Terms of Bonds. That initially there shall be issued, sold, and delivered hereunder fully registered bonds, without interest coupons, in one or more series, payable to the respective initial registered owners thereof, or to the registered assignee or assignees of said bonds or any portion or portions thereof (in each case, the "Registered Owner"), in the denomination of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof (an "Authorized Denomination"), maturing not later than February 15, 2053, serially or otherwise on the dates, in the years and in the principal amounts, respectively, and dated, all as shall be determined and established in accordance with this Thirty-Second Supplement. The City Council hereby affirmatively waives the provision in its "Financial Management Policy Statements — Chapter V - Debt" specifying that the average life of revenue bonds issued by the City will be no greater than approximately twelve years. The City Council finds that permitting the Bonds to have a maturity of not later than February 15, 2053, is consistent with the useful lives of the facilities authorized to be refinanced with the proceeds of Bonds and the revenue-generating capability of such facilities. (b) Sale of Bonds. (i) Method of Sale. As authorized by Section 1207.007, Texas Government Code, each Authorized Representative is hereby authorized to effect the sale of all or any of the Bonds authorized to be sold by this Thirty-Second Supplement, whether by competitive sale or by negotiated sale conducted either through a public underwriting of the Bonds, a private placement of the Bonds, or both. The determination of each Authorized Representative, acting for and on behalf of the City, relating to the method of and the terms and conditions relating to the sale of Bonds pursuant to this Thirty-Second Supplement shall have the same force and effect as if such determination were made by the City.

Should such Bonds be subject to redemption prior to their scheduled maturities, if less than all of such Bonds are to be redeemed by the City, the City shall determine the maturity or maturities and the amounts to be redeemed and shall direct the Paying Agent/Registrar to call by lot Bonds, or portions of Bonds, within a maturity and in the principal amounts for redemption; provided, that during any period in which ownership of such Bonds is determined only by a book entry at a securities depository for such Bonds, if fewer than all of such Bonds of the same maturity and bearing the same interest rate are to be redeemed, the particular Bonds shall be selected in accordance with the arrangements between the City and the securities depository.

(d) Substitute Pang A end ig stray. The City covenants with the owners of the Bonds that at all times while the Bonds are Outstanding a competent and legally qualified entity shall act as and perform the services of Paying Agent/Registrar for the Bonds under this Thirty- Second Supplement, and that the Paying Agent/Registrar will be one entity. Such entity may be the City, to the extent permitted by law, or a bank, trust company, financial institution, or other agency, as selected by the City. The City reserves the right to, and may, at its option, change the Paying Agent/Registrar upon not less than one hundred and twenty (120) days written notice to the Paying Agent/Registrar, to be effective not later than sixty (60) days prior to the next principal or interest payment date after such notice. In the event that the entity at any time acting as Paying Agent/Registrar (or its successor by merger, acquisition, or other method) should resign or otherwise cease to act as such, the City covenants that promptly it will appoint a competent and legally qualified entity to act as Paying Agent/Registrar under this Thirty-Second Supplement. Upon any change in the Paying Agent/Registrar, the previous Paying Agent/Registrar promptly shall transfer and deliver the Registration Books (or a copy thereof), along with all other pertinent books and records relating to the Bonds, to the new Paying Agent/Registrar designated and appointed by the City.

Section 6. FORM OF BONDS. (a) Form of Bonds. That the form of all Bonds, including the form of the Authentication Certificate, the form of Assignment, and the form of the Comptroller's Registration Certificate to be attached only to the Bonds initially issued and delivered pursuant to this Thirty-Second Supplement, shall be, respectively, substantially as set forth in Exhibit B, with such appropriate variations, omissions, or insertions as are permitted or required by this Thirty-Second Supplement. (b) Printing Bond Counsel Opinion and Statement of Insurance. The printer of the Bonds is hereby authorized to print on the Bonds the form of bond counsel's opinion relating to the Bonds, and is hereby authorized to print on the Bonds an appropriate statement of insurance furnished by a municipal bond insurance company providing municipal bond insurance, if any, covering all or any part of the Bonds. ll Section 7. ESTABLISHMENT OF FINANCING PROGRAM AND ISSUANCE OF PARITY OBLIGATIONS. That by adoption of the Master Ordinance the City has established the City of Fort Worth, Texas Water and Sewer System Revenue Financing Program for the purpose of providing a financing structure for revenue supported indebtedness of the System. The Master Ordinance is intended to establish a master plan under which revenue supported debt of the System can be incurred. This Thirty-Second Supplement provides for the authorization, issuance, sale, delivery, form, characteristics, provisions of payment and redemption, and security of the Bonds of any series, and any such series of Bonds issued under authority of this Thirty-Second Supplement shall constitute Parity Obligations. The Master Ordinance is incorporated herein by reference and as such made a part hereof for all purposes, except to the extent modified and supplemented hereby, and the Bonds are hereby declared to be Parity Obligations under the Master Ordinance. The City hereby determines that it will have sufficient funds to meet the financial obligations of the System, including sufficient Pledged Revenues to satisfy the Annual Debt Service Requirements of the System and to meet all financial obligations of the City relating to the System. Section 8. PLEDGE. (a) Pledge of Pledged Revenues. That the Bonds are and shall be secured by and payable from a first lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues; and the Pledged Revenues are further pledged to the establishment and maintenance of the Debt Service Fund, and to the Reserve Fund to the extent hereinafter provided. The Bonds are and will be secured by and payable only from the Pledged Revenues, and are not secured by or payable from a mortgage or deed of trust on any properties, whether real, personal, or mixed, constituting the System. (b) Perfection of Lien. Chapter 1208 applies to the issuance of the Bonds and the pledge of the Pledged Revenues granted by the City under subsection (a) of this Section, and such pledge is therefore valid, effective, and perfected. If Texas law is amended at any time while the Bonds are Outstanding and unpaid such that the pledge of the Pledged Revenues granted by the City is to be subject to the filing requirements of Chapter 9, then in order to preserve to the registered owners of the Bonds the perfection of the security interest in said pledge, the City agrees to take such measures as it determines are reasonable and necessary under Texas law to comply with the applicable provisions of Chapter 9 and enable a filing to perfect the security interest in said pledge to occur. Section 9. DEBT SERVICE FUND ACCOUNTS. That with respect to the Bonds no special account need be established to facilitate the payment of debt service on the Bonds. Section 10. RESERVE FUND. That no deposits shall be made to the credit of the Reserve Fund, as provided in Section 12(b) of this Thirty-Second Supplement. Section 11. INVESTMENTS. That to the extent a reserve fund for the Bonds is created after their delivery, money in the Reserve Fund created under this Thirty-Second Supplement shall not be invested in securities with an average aggregate weighted maturity of greater than seven years. The value of the Reserve Fund, in addition to the annual determination described in the Master Ordinance, shall be established at the time or times withdrawals are made therefrom. Investments shall be sold promptly when necessary to prevent any default in connection with the Bonds. Earnings derived from the investment of moneys on deposit in the various Funds and 12 Accounts shall be credited to the Fund or Account from which moneys used to acquire such investment shall have come. Section 12. FLOW OF FUNDS. That all monies in the System Fund not required for paying Operating Expenses during each month shall be applied by the City, on or before the loth day of the following month, commencing during the months and in the order of priority with respect to the Funds and Accounts that such applications are hereinafter set forth in this Section. (a) Debt Service Fund- To the credit of the Debt Service Fund, in the following order of priority,to-wit: (1) such amounts, deposited in approximately equal monthly installments, commencing during the month in which a series of the Bonds is delivered, or the month thereafter if delivery is made after the loth day thereof, as will be sufficient, together with other amounts, if any, in the Debt Service Fund available for such purpose, to pay the interest scheduled to come due on such Bonds on the next succeeding interest payment date; and (2) such amounts, deposited in approximately equal monthly installments, commencing during the month which shall be the later to occur of, (i) the twelfth month before the first maturity date of a series of the Bonds, or (ii) the month in which a series of the Bonds is delivered, or the month thereafter if delivery is made after the loth day thereof, as will be sufficient, together with other amounts, if any, in the Debt Service Fund available for such purpose, to pay the principal (including mandatory sinking fund redemption payments, if any) scheduled to mature or come due on such Bonds on the next succeeding principal payment date or mandatory sinking fund redemption date, as the case may be. (b) Reserve Fund. Acting in accordance with the provisions of the Master Ordinance, specifically, without limitation, Section 7 thereof, it is not necessary for the Bonds to be secured by the Reserve Fund established for the benefit of the owners of Parity Obligations, and therefore the City may, but shall not be required to, make deposits to the credit of the Reserve Fund with respect to the Bonds of any series. Section 13. PAYMENT OF BONDS. That on or before the first scheduled interest payment date, and on or before each interest payment date and principal payment date thereafter while any Bond is Outstanding and unpaid, the City shall make available to the Paying Agent/Registrar, out of the Debt Service Fund (and the Reserve Fund, if necessary) monies sufficient to pay such interest on and such principal amount of the Bonds, as shall become due on such dates, respectively, at maturity or by redemption prior to maturity. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall destroy all paid Bonds and furnish the City with an appropriate certificate of cancellation or destruction. Section 14. COVENANTS REGARDING TAX-EXEMPTION. That the Issuer covenants to refrain from any action which would adversely affect, or to take such action as to ensure, the treatment of the Bonds as obligations described in section 103 of the Code, the interest on which is not includable in the "gross income" of the holder for purposes of federal income taxation. In furtherance thereof,the Issuer covenants as follows: 13 (a) to take any action to assure that no more than ten percent (10%) of the proceeds of the Bonds or the projects financed or refinanced therewith (less amounts deposited to a reserve fund, if any) are used for any "private business use", as defined in section 141(b)(6) of the Code or, if more than ten percent (10%) of the proceeds are so used, that amounts, whether or not received by the Issuer, with respect to such private business use, do not, under the terms of this Thirty-Second Supplement or any underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, secure or provide for the payment of more than ten percent (10%) of the debt service on the Bonds, in contravention of section 141(b)(2) of the Code; (b) to take any action to assure that in the event that the "private business use" described in subsection (a) hereof exceeds five percent (5%) of the proceeds of the Bonds or the projects financed therewith (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) then the amount in excess of five percent (5%) is used for a "private business use" which is "related" and not "disproportionate", within the meaning of section 141(b)(3) of the Code, to the governmental use; (c) to take any action to assure that no amount which is greater than the lesser of $5,000,000, or five percent (5%) of the proceeds of the Bonds (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) is directly or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than state or local governmental units, in contravention of section 141(c) of the Code; (d) to refrain from taking any action which would otherwise result in the Bonds being treated as "specified private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 141(b) of the Code; (e) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the Bonds being "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code; (f) to refrain from using any portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, directly or indirectly, to acquire or to replace funds which were used, directly or indirectly, to acquire investment property (as defined in section 148(b)(2) of the Code) which produces a materially higher yield over the term of the Bonds, other than investment property acquired with -- (1) proceeds of the Bonds invested for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Bonds are issued, (2) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the meaning of section 1.148-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations, and (3) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or replacement fund to the extent such amounts do not exceed ten percent of the proceeds of the Bonds; (g) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Bonds or amounts treated as proceeds of the Bonds, as may be necessary, so that the Bonds do not otherwise contravene the requirements of section 148 of the Code (relating to arbitrage); 14 (h) to refrain from using the proceeds of the Bonds or the proceeds of any prior bonds to pay debt service on another issue more than 90 days after the date of issue of the Bonds in contravention of section 149(d) of the Code (relating to advance refundings); and (i) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five-year period (beginning on the date of delivery of the Bonds) an amount that is at least equal to ninety percent (90%) of the "Excess Earnings", within the meaning of section 148(f) of the Code and to pay to the United States of America, not later than sixty (60) days after the Bonds have been paid in full, one hundred percent (100%) of the amount then required to be paid as a result of Excess Earnings under section 148(f) of the Code. For purposes of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer understands that the term "proceeds" includes "disposition proceeds" as defined in the Treasury Regulations and, in the case of a refunding bond, transferred proceeds (if any) and proceeds of the refunded bonds expended prior to the date of the issuance of the Bonds. It is the understanding of the Issuer that the covenants contained herein are intended to assure compliance with the Code and any regulations or rulings promulgated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury pursuant thereto. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated which modify or expand provisions of the Code, as applicable to the Bonds, the Issuer will not be required to comply with any covenant contained herein to the extent that such failure to comply, in the opinion of nationally-recognized bond counsel, will not adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under section 103 of the Code. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated which impose additional requirements which are applicable to the Bonds, the Issuer agrees to comply with the additional requirements to the extent necessary, in the opinion of nationally-recognized bond counsel, to preserve the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under section 103 of the Code. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Mayor, the City Manager, any Assistant City Manager and the Chief Financial Officer/Director of Financial Management Services of the City are authorized to execute any certificates or other reports required by the Code and to make such elections, on behalf of the City, which may be permitted by the Code as are consistent with the purpose for the issuance of the Bonds. In order to facilitate compliance with the above clause (i), a "Rebate Fund" may be established by the City for the sole benefit of the United States of America, and the Rebate Fund shall not be subject to the claim of any other person, including without limitation the registered owners of the Bonds. The Rebate Fund would be established for the additional purpose of compliance with section 148 of the Code. Section 15. ADDITIONAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX COVENANTS; WRITTEN PROCEDURES. (a) Disposition of Project. The City covenants that the property financed or refinanced with the proceeds of Bonds will not be sold or otherwise disposed in a transaction resulting in the receipt by the City of cash or other compensation, unless the City obtains an opinion of nationally-recognized bond counsel substantially to the effect that such sale or other disposition will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of such Bonds. For purposes of this Section, the portion of the property comprising personal property and disposed of in the ordinary course of business shall not be treated as a transaction resulting in the receipt of cash or other compensation. For purposes of this Section, the City shall not be obligated to comply with this covenant if it obtains an opinion of nationally-recognized bond counsel to the effect that such failure to comply will not adversely affect the excludability for federal income tax purposes from gross income of the interest. 15 (b) Written Procedures. Until superseded by another action of the City, the written procedures to ensure compliance with the covenants contained herein regarding private business use, remedial actions, arbitrage and rebate approved by the City on September 13, 2022, apply to the issuance of the Bonds, and are incorporated by reference into this Thirty-Second Supplement. Section 16. AMENDMENT OF THIRTY-SECOND SUPPLEMENT. (a) Approval of Bondholders Required. That the owners of a majority in Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds shall have the right from time to time to approve any amendment to this Thirty-Second Supplement which may be deemed necessary or desirable by the City, provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall permit or be construed to permit the amendment of the terms and conditions in this Thirty-Second Supplement or in the Bonds so as to: (1) Make any change in the maturity of any of the Outstanding Bonds; (2) Reduce the rate of interest borne by any of the Outstanding Bonds; (3) Reduce the amount of the principal payable on the Outstanding Bonds; (4) Modify the terms of payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Outstanding Bonds or impose any conditions with respect to such payment; (5) Affect the rights of the owners of less than all of the Bonds then Outstanding; (6) Amend this clause (a) of this Section; or (7) Change the minimum percentage of the principal amount of Bonds necessary for consent to any amendment; unless such amendment or amendments shall be approved by the owners of all of the Bonds then Outstanding.

Section 23. FURTHER PROCEDURES. That the Mayor, the City Manager, any Assistant City Manager, the Chief Financial Officer/Director of Financial Management Services of the City, the City Secretary or any Assistant City Secretary, and all other officers, employees, and agents of the City, and each of them, shall be and they are hereby expressly authorized, empowered and directed from time to time and at any time to do and perform all such acts and things and to execute, acknowledge and deliver in the name and under the corporate seal and on behalf of the City all such instruments, whether herein mentioned, as may be necessary or desirable in order to carry out the terms and provisions of this Thirty-Second Supplement and the Bonds, including, but not limited to, and fixing all details in connection therewith, to prepare the Bidding Instructions and Official Bid Form, in the case of Bonds sold through a competitive sale, and to approve any Official Statement, or supplements thereto, in connection with the Bonds. Any final Official Statement relating to the offering of any series of Bonds, either through a competitive sale or a negotiated sale conducted as a public underwriting, shall be approved by an Authorized Representative. Each Authorized Representative is authorized to approve any supplement to the Official Statement incorporating the information contained in the Bond Purchase Agreement, in the case of a negotiated sale conducted as a public underwriting, and the Bidding Instructions and Official Bid Form, in the case of a competitive sale, and such additional information as deemed material consistent with the requirements of the Rule and to authorize the distribution of any such final Official Statement to the initial purchasers of the Bonds for their use in the sale of the Bonds to members of the general public.

Section 24. APPROVAL AND REGISTRATION OF BONDS.

Upon registration of the Bonds, the Comptroller (or a deputy designated in writing to act for the Comptroller) shall manually sign the Comptroller's Registration Certificate accompanying the Bonds, and the seal of the Comptroller shall be impressed, or placed in facsimile, on each such certificate. Section 25. DTC REGISTRATION. That the Bonds initially shall be issued and delivered in such manner that no physical distribution of the Bonds will be made to the public, and The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, initially will act as depository for the Bonds. DTC has represented that it is a limited purpose trust company incorporated under the laws of the State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered under Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the City accepts, but in no way verifies, such representations. The Bonds initially authorized by this Thirty-Second Supplement shall be delivered to and registered in the name of 23 CEDE & CO., the nominee of DTC. So long as each Bond is registered in the name of CEDE & CO., the Paying Agent/Registrar shall treat and deal with DTC the same in all respects as if it were the actual and beneficial owner thereof. It is expected that DTC will maintain a book-entry system which will identify ownership of the Bonds in integral amounts of$5,000, with transfers of ownership being effected on the records of DTC and its participants pursuant to rules and regulations established by them, and that the Bonds initially deposited with DTC shall be immobilized and not be further exchanged for substitute Bonds except as hereinafter provided. The City is not responsible or liable for any functions of DTC, will not be responsible for paying any fees or charges with respect to its services, will not be responsible or liable for maintaining, supervising, or reviewing the records of DTC or its participants, or protecting any interests or rights of the beneficial owners of the Bonds. It shall be the duty of the DTC Participants, as defined in the Official Statement herein approved, to make all arrangements with DTC to establish this book-entry system, the beneficial ownership of the Bonds, and the method of paying the fees and charges of DTC. The City does not represent nor covenant that the initial book-entry system established with DTC will be maintained in the future. Notwithstanding the initial establishment of the foregoing book-entry system with DTC, if for any reason any of the originally delivered Bonds is duly filed with the Paying Agent/Registrar with proper request for transfer and substitution, as provided for in this Thirty-Second Supplement, substitute Bonds will be duly delivered as provided in this Thirty-Second Supplement, and there will be no assurance or representation that any book-entry system will be maintained for such Bonds. To effect the establishment of the foregoing book-entry system, the City has executed and filed with DTC the "Blanket DTC Letter of Representations" in the form provided by DTC to evidence the City's intent to establish said book-entry system. The foregoing notwithstanding, Bonds sold through a negotiated sale conducted as a private placement are not subject to the requirements of this Section 25, unless the Bond Purchase Agreement executed in connection with the sale of such Bonds provides that the DTC book-entry system of registration shall apply to such Bonds.

(ii) It is provided that all such proceedings shall be instituted and maintained for the equal benefit of all registered owners of Bonds then Outstanding. (c) Remedies Not Exclusive. (i) No remedy herein conferred or reserved is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or under the Bonds or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this Thirty-Second Supplement, the right to accelerate the debt evidenced by the Bonds shall not be available as a remedy under this Thirty-Second Supplement. (ii) The exercise of any remedy herein conferred or reserved shall not be deemed a waiver of any other available remedy. (iii) By accepting the delivery of a Bond authorized under this Thirty-Second Supplement, such registered owner agrees that the certifications required to effectuate any covenants or representations contained in this Thirty-Second Supplement do not and shall never constitute or give rise to a personal or pecuniary liability or charge against the officers, employees or members of the City or the City Council.

Adopt the attached ordinance authorizing an extended and expanded callable commercial paper program for the Water Department with a final issuance date no later than February 14,2043, in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed$225,000,000.00 at any one time,with an annual cost of$20,500.00;authorizing conforming amendments to the existing Dealer,Paying Agent/Registrar and Calculation Agent Agreements for the program,authorizing certain officers and employees to act on behalf of the City in the selling and delivery of the obligations,and resolving other matters incident and related to the issuance,sale,security and delivery of the obligations; 2. Adopt the attached Amended and Restated Thirty-Second Supplemental Ordinance authorizing issuance and sale of City of Fort Worth, Texas Water and Sewer System Revenue Refunding Bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed$225,000,000.00 to allow outstanding commercial paper to be refunded/refinanced for a longer term if needed; 3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance, increasing appropriations in the Water and Sewer Callable Commercial Paper Fund in the amount of$75,000,000.00,for a total appropriation of$225,000,000.00,to support contracting authority under the callable commercial paper program; 4. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance,increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Water and Sewer Fund(Operating)in the amount of$130,000.00,from future revenues,to pay for closing and delivery fees associated with the program;and 5. Amend the Fiscal Year 2023 Adopted Budget. DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to take actions to extend and increase the liquidity facility for the City's Water and Sewer System,which supports appropriations to initiate capital projects between annual revenue-bond sales. Since 2017,the City's Water and Sewer Utility System has employed a financing tool known as the Callable Commercial Paper(CCP)Program with J.P.Morgan Securities LLC engaged as dealer(M&C C-28496, Ordinance 23028-12-2017). The CCP program has provided appropriation authority for capital projects identified within the Water and Sewer Capital Improvement Program. The Water Department has used this authority in conjunction with Council-adopted reimbursement resolutions to facilitate the initial award of capital improvement contracts that will ultimately be financed by longer term bonds issued after the project has commenced. During the initial period of construction, interim payments are paid out of available resources.When System revenue bonds are then issued,proceeds are used to repay the System's interim payment sources,fund the projects,and replenish the CCP authority. Although the CCP ordinance provides authority to have up to$225 million in commercial paper outstanding at any one time in order to support appropriations and expedite project delivery between bond issues, no commercial paper has actually been issued under the program to date. If CCP were to be issued,in accordance with state law the paper would have a maturity date that is no greater than 270 days from its date of issuance. Were the City to actually issue CCP and have it approaching maturity,the City would have several options One such option would be to issue long-term refunding debt utilizing the authority provided under the amended and restated thirty-second supplemental ordinance,which is attached second recommendation. Having the ability to issue long-term refunding bonds also enhances the credit rating for the CCP program. Updated supplemental ordinances are anticipated for adoption each calendar year to extend the delegated standby authority to issue refunding bonds, if needed,throughout the life of the program. As is required by Chapter 1371 of the Texas Government Code,the CCP program must be investment grade rated. The utility System's strong financial performance and strong market access resulted in the CCP program being awarded S&P's highest short-term rating of A-1+. The action in this M&C will amend the Fiscal Year 2023 Adopted Budget as approved in connection with Ordinance 25773-09-2022,Section 4.
