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 2024 in the amount of$369,235.32 in accordance with the agreement
between TXDOT and the City of Fort Worth(City Secretary Contract No.44231).
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 the 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.Twelve supplemental agreements were executed to reflect additional traffic signal locations,culminating with City
Secretary Contract No.37068.
On November 6,2012,the City Council approved M&C C-25951 authorizing the execution of a new agreement consolidating the previous
agreements into one(City Secretary Contract No.44231).On February 26,2013,the first supplement to that agreement was executed to add six
traffic signal locations and to revise the annual reimbursement amount to$208,392.00. In May,2019,the second supplement was executed adding
locations and increasing the annual compensation amount to$369,235.32.
The agreement with TXDOT also allows for the City of Fort Worth to seek reimbursement for non-routine repairs made to damaged state-owned
traffic signals that result from crashes or acts of God.The amount reimbursed annually for non-routine repairs varies but are typically less than
$50,000.00 and are invoiced and paid separately.
For Fiscal Year 2024,there is no request for additional appropriations for non-routine repairs.
The Transportation and Public Works Department is responsible for the billing and collection of these funds.
