RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:

Program, in an amount up to $300,000.00 for the design and construction of flight line security improvements;
Authorize the execution of funding agreement between the City of Fort Worth and Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth; and
Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Operating State Fund in the

Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize acceptance of a grant from the Texas Military Preparedness
Commission's Defense Economic Adjustment Assistance Grant Program (DEAAG), in an amount up to $300,000.00 for Phase 3 of the design
and construction of flight line security improvements at the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth (NAS JRB) and execute a funding
agreement with NAS JRB.
A security assessment at NAS JRB identified the need for increased security to the flight line, where aircraft are parked and serviced. On May 11,
2023, City Council authorized acceptance of a $350,000.00 grant from the Texas Military Preparedness Commission's Defense Economic
Adjustment Assistance Grant Program for alight line security improvements and authorized execution of funding agreement between the City of Fort
Worth and Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth (CSC No. 60560, M&C 23-0282).
On September 12, 2023, City Council authorized acceptance of a $360,000.00 grant from the Texas Military Preparedness Commission's
Defense Economic Adjustment Assistance Grant Program for Phase 2 of the flight line security improvements and authorized execution of a
funding agreement between the City of Fort Worth and Naval Air Station Join Reserve Base Fort Worth (CSC No. 60023, M&C 23-0767).
This grant will fund Phase 3 of the recommended security systems. This project will include gates, adjacent fence improvements, access controls,
and associated IT system upgrades. It is anticipated that this will be the final Phase of the grant. NAS JRB will be responsible for managing the
design, construction and future maintenance of the project.
The City and NAS JRB will enter into a funding agreement to govern the transfer of grant funds. The state already awarded the City $710,000.00 in
DEAAG funds. With the acceptance of an additional $300,000.00 the total for the grant will be $1,010,000.00. The funds will be provided to the
City through quarterly reimbursement requests.
In order for NAS JRB to execute the construction contract, it is required that the funds transfer to them at the start of the project, prior to the City
receiving reimbursements. The funding agreement will also dictate the requirements of NAS JRB to report back to the City, so the City can make
its reimbursement requests for the $1,010,000.00 of grant funds related to Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3.
NAS JRB has committed to providing $652,000.00 in Department of Defense funds toward the project. A total of $352,000.00 was allocated for
Phase 2 (M&C 23-0767) and an additional $300,000.00 will be allocated for Phase 3, NAS JRB will be responsible for all cost overruns or
additional funds required to complete the project.
Since no City salaries will be charged, indirect cost recovery does not apply.
