l�Jlayor and Council Communication
DATE: 05/13/25 M&C FILE NUMBER: M&C 25-0387
LOG NAME: 04FUND CORRECTION BROADBAND PROJECT
SUBJECT
(ALL) Repeal Appropriation Ordinance 26758-10-2023 and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance with Corrected Fund Name for the Previously
Approved Federal Surface Transportation Block Grant Funds from North Central Texas Council of Governments for Eastside Arterial Broadband
Improvements with No Change in Authorized Amount
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Repeal Appropriation Ordinance No. 26578-10-2023; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Capital Projects Federal Fund,
in the amount up to $3,000,000.00, subject to receipt of the Grant, for the purpose of funding the Federal Surface Transportation Block Grant
Funds from North Central Texas Council of Governments for Eastside Arterial Broadband Improvements (City Project No. 104934).
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to repeal, readopt, and appropriate ordinance 26578-10-2023 for the previously
approved Federal Surface Transportation Block Grant Funds from North Central Texas Council of Governments for Eastside Arterial Broadband
Improvements (City Project No. 104934) to correct the fund from Grants Capital Project Other Fund to Grants Cap Projects Federal Fund. The total
amount of appropriated funds is an amount up to $3,000,000.00.
On October 31, 2023, Mayor and Council approved M&C 23-0925 13RFP 22-0146 BROADBAND ENHANCEMENTS CH CITY authorizing the
acceptance of $3,000,000.00 in Federal Surface Transportation Block Grant funds from North Texas Council of Governments, and adopting the
appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Capital Project Other Fund in the amount of
$3,000,000.00, subject to the receipt of the grant.
Recommendation No. 6 errantly appropriated funding to the Grants Capital Project Other Fund rather than the Grants Cap Projects Federal Fund.
This M&C will eliminate the original appropriation and appropriate funds correctly within the FY23 Broadband Project.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds
will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, in the Grants Cap Projects Federal Fund. Information Technology Solutions
Department (and Financial Management Services) will be responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City. Prior to an
expenditure being incurred, the Information Technology Solutions Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds. This is a
reimbursement grant.
