116292 (MO) dated August 30, 2022 awarding funding for TASA projects in the TASA Program Call of
the North Central Texas Council of Governments, including Project, and
WHEREAS, the governing body of the Local Government has approved entering into this Agreement
by resolution or ordinance dated October 17, 2023, which is attached to and made a part of this
Agreement as Attachment C, Resolution or Ordinance. A map showing the Project location appears in
Attachment A, Project Location Map, which is attached to and made a part of this Agreement, and
NOW, THEREFORE, the State and the Local Government agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
Period of Agreement and Performance
A. Period of Agreement. This Agreement becomes effective when signed by the last party
whose signing makes the Agreement fully executed. This Agreement shall remain in
effect until terminated as provided below.
B. Period of Performance.
1. The Performance Period for each phase of work begins on the date specified in
the Federal Project Authorization and Agreement (FPAA) for that phase of work.
Local Government may not begin work until issued the State Letter of Authority
(SLOA) for that phase of work.
2. The Performance Period for each phase of work ends on the date specified in
the FPAA for that phase of work.
2. Scope of Work and Use of Project
A. The scope of work for Project consists of constructing new sidewalks and Americans
with Disability Act (ADA) ramps on multiple streets within the 0.25-mile radius of AV
Cato Elementary School as shown in Attachment A.
B. Any project changes proposed must be submitted in writing by Local Government to
State. Substantive changes may also require an amendment to this Agreement and the
approval of the FHWA, State, MPO, or the Commission. Any changes undertaken
without written approval and amendment of this Agreement mayjeopardize not only the
federal funding for the changes, but the federal funding of the entire Project.
3. Project Sources and Uses of Funds
The total estimated development cost of the Project is shown in Attachment B, Project Budget
Estimate and Source of Funds (Attachment B).
A. If Local Government will perform any work under this Agreement for which
reimbursement will be provided by or through the State, the Local Government must
complete training. If federal funds are being used, the training must be completed
before federal spending authority is obligated. Training is complete when at least one
individual who is working actively and directly on the Project successfully completes and
receives a certificate for the course entitled "Local Government Project Procedures and
Qualification for the Texas Department of Transportation" and retains qualification in

certificate may be an employee of Local Government or an employee of a firm that has
been contracted by Local Government to perform oversight of the Project. State in its
discretion may deny reimbursement if Local Government has not continuously
designated in writing a qualified individual to work actively on or to directly oversee the
Project.
B. The total estimated project cost as shown in Attachment B incudes the Local
Government's estimated itemized cost of real property, utilities, environmental
assessments, construction, and other construction related costs. To be eligible for
reimbursement or as in -kind contribution, costs must have been included in the
nomination form approved by the Texas Transportation Commission or MPO in
consultation with State. Local Government must submit to State evidence of payment
for eligible in -kind costs at least once per calendar quarter using the State's In -Kind
Match Reporting form.
C. State and the Federal Government will not reimburse Local Government for any work
performed outside the Performance Period. After federal funds have been obligated,
State will send to Local Government a copy of the formal documentation showing the
obligation of funds including federal award information. Local Government is
responsible for 100 percent of the cost of any work performed under its direction or
control before the federal spending authority is formally obligated.
D. The Project budget and source of funds estimate based on the budget provided in the
application is included in Attachment B. Attachment B shows the percentage and
estimated dollar amounts to be contributed to Project by state and local sources, as well
as the maximum amount in federal TASA funds assigned by the Commission or MPO in
consultation with State. This Agreement maybe amended from time to time as required
to meet the funding commitments based on revisions to the TASA, FPAA, or other
federal documents.
E. State will be responsible for securing the federal share of funding required for the
development and construction of Project, in an amount not to exceed 80 percent of the
actual cost of the work up to the amount of funds approved for Project by the Texas
Transportation Commission or MPO in consultation with State. Federal funds will be
reimbursed on a cost basis. Project costs incurred prior to issuance of the SLOA are not
eligible for reimbursement.
F. The Local Government will be responsible for all non-federal or non -State participation
costs associated with the Project, unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement or
approved otherwise in an amendment to this Agreement. For items of work subject to
specified percentage funding, the Local Government shall only in those instances be
responsible for all Project costs that are greater than the maximum State and federal
participation specified in Attachment B and for overruns in excess of the amount
specified in Attachment B to be paid by the Local Government. If the Project was State -
selected, the State may apply a portion of any excess program funds to cover all or a
portion of any overrun based on criteria provided by 43 Tex. Admin. Code §11.411(d).
G. The budget in Attachment B will clearly state all items subject to fixed price funding,
specified percentage funding, and the periodic payment schedule, when periodic
payments have been approved by the State.
H. When fixed price funding is used, the Local Government is responsible for the fixed
price amount specified in Attachment B. Fixed prices are not subject to adjustment
unless (1) differing site conditions are encountered; (2) further definition of the Local
Government's requested scope of work identifies greatly differing costs from those

estimated; (3) work requested by the Local Government is determined to be ineligible
for federal participation; or (4) the adjustment is mutually agreed to by the State and the
Local Government.
Following execution of this Agreement, but prior to the performance of any plan review
work by State, Local Government will pay to State the amount specified in Attachment
B for plan review. At least 60 days prior to the date set for receipt of the construction
bids, Local Government shall remit its remaining local match as specified in Attachment
B for State's estimated construction oversight and construction cost.
In the event State determines that additional funding is required by Local Government
at any time during Project, State will notify Local Government in writing. Local
Government is responsible for the percentage of the authorized Project cost shown in
Attachment B and 100 percent of any overruns above the federally authorized amount.
Local Government will make payment to State within 30 days from receipt of State's
written notification.
Whenever funds are paid by Local Government to State under this Agreement, Local
Government will remit a warrant made payable to the "Texas Department of
Transportation". The warrant will be deposited by State and managed by State. Funds
may only be applied by State to Project.
Upon completion of Project, State will perform a final accounting of Project costs. Any
funds due to Local Government, State, or the Federal Government will be promptly paid
by the owing party.
In the event Project is not completed, State may seek reimbursement from Local
Government of the expended federal funds. Local Government will remit the required
funds to State within 60 days from receipt of State's notification.
If any existing or future local ordinances, commissioners court orders, rules, policies, or
other directives, including but not limited to outdoor advertising billboards and storm
water drainage facility requirements, are more restrictive than state or federal
regulations, or if any other locally proposed changes, including but not limited to plats
or re -plats, result in increased costs, then any increased costs associated with the
ordinances or changes will be paid by Local Government. The cost of providing right of
way acquired by State shall mean the total expenses in acquiring the property interests
through negotiations, including, but not limited to, expenses related to relocation,
removal, and adjustment of eligible utilities.
The state auditor may conduct an audit or investigation of any entity receiving funds
from the State directly under the Agreement or indirectly through a contract or
subcontract under the Agreement. Acceptance of funds directly under the Agreement or
indirectly through a contract or subcontract under this Agreement acts as acceptance of
the authority of the state auditor, under the direction of the legislative audit committee,
to conduct an audit or investigation in connection with those funds. An entity that is the
subject of an audit or investigation must provide the state auditor with access to any
information the state auditor considers relevant to the investigation or audit.
State will not pay interest on any funds provided by Local Government.
State will not execute the contract for the construction of Project until the required
funding has been made available by Local Government in accordance with this
Agreement.
Local Government is authorized to submit requests for reimbursement by submitting the
original of an itemized invoice in a form and containing all items required by State no
more frequently than monthly, and no later than 90 days after costs are incurred. If

Local Government submits invoices more than 90 days after the costs are incurred, and
if federal funding is reduced as a result, State shall have no responsibility to reimburse
Local Government for those costs.
S. If Local government is an Economically Disadvantaged County (EDC) and if State has
approved adjustments to the standard financing arrangement, this agreement reflects
those adjustments.
4. Termination of the Agreement
A. This Agreement maybe terminated by any of the following conditions:
1. By mutual written consent and agreement of all parties;
2. By any party with 90 days written notice; or
3. By either party, upon the failure of the other party to fulfill the obligations as set
forth in this Agreement. Any cost incurred due to such breach of contract shall
be paid by the breaching party.

to fulfill its contractual obligations, State will notify Local Government that possible
breach of contract has occurred. Local Government should make every effort to remedy
the breach within a period mutually agreed upon by both parties.
C. The Agreement may be terminated by the State because the parties are not able to
execute a mutually agreeable amendment when the costs for Local Government
requested items increase significantly due to differing site conditions, determination that
Local government requested work is ineligible for federal or state cost participation, or a
more thorough definition of the Local Government's proposed work scope identifies
greatly differing costs from those estimated. The State will reimburse Local
Government remaining funds to the Local Government within ninety (90) days of
termination;
D. If Local Government withdraws from Project after this Agreement is executed, Local
Government shall be responsible for all direct and indirect Project costs as identified by

DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to adopt a resolution authorizing
execution of an Advance Funding Agreement (AFA) with the Texas Department of Transportation
(TXDOT) in the amount of $2,617,402.00 of which Federal participation is in the amount of
$1,570,248.00, State participation is in the amount of $111,133.00 and $936,021.00 is City
participation for the A V Cato Elementary Safe Routes to School Project (City Project No. 104799).
The scope of this project includes pedestrian facilities improvements including sidewalks and
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramps in a 0.25 mile radius along A V Cato Elementary School
to provide a safe walking route to school.
The project will be locally let in late 2025. City will be responsible for securing the Federal funding
required for construction of this project. City funds have been appropriated to this project for design,
right-of-way, utilities and project management purposes. The City bears the responsibility to pay for
cost overruns.

Funding is budgeted in the 2022 Bond Program Fund for the purpose of funding the A V Cato SRTS
project.
This project is included in the 2022 Bond Program. The City's Extendable Commercial Paper (ECP)
(M&C 22-0607; Ordinance 25675-08-2022) provides liquidity to support the appropriation. Available
resources will be used to actually make any interim progress payments until debt is issued. Once
debt associated with a project is sold, debt proceeds will reimburse the interim financing source in
accordance with the statement expressing official Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part of the
ordinance canvassing the bond election (Ordinance 25515-05-2022).
Funding for this project was not included in the Fiscal Years 2024-2028 Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) because the project and funding sources were unknown at the time of its
development. This action in this M&C will amend the Fiscal Years 2024-2028 Capital Improvement
Program as approved in connection with Ordinance 26453-09-2023.
Approval of recommendation 3 would adjust appropriations between a programmable project and
convert the A V Cato Elementary Safe Routes to School Project (City Project No. 104799) into a static
capital project. This action is needed as future funding for AV Cato Elementary Safe Routes to
School Project (City Project No. 104799) is anticipated from other sources and the scope of this
project differs from that of current programmable project.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of
the attached appropriation ordinances, funds will be available in the current capital budget, as
appropriated, in the Grants Cap Projects Federal Fund and the 2022 Bond Program Fund. The
Transportation and Public Works Department (and Financial Management Services) will be

responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City. Prior to any expenditure being
incurred, the Transportation & Public Works Department has the responsibility to validate the
availability of funds. This is reimbursement grant.
