DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to provide for capital project clean-up as identified throughout the Fiscal Year
(FY). Items that need clean-up may include but are not limited to actions such as authorizing transfers, balancing receipts and appropriations for
primarily completed projects to facilitate closing, providing correcting budget transfers and general ledger entries to prepare for project closure or
to balance a project, moving additional or residual receipts and appropriations to the appropriate capital project or grant fund, and other ancillary
actions to fulfill capital obligations as needed.
Items addressed in this M&C are as follows:
Recommendation 1-4 will correct appropriations in the 2018 Bond Railroad (RR) Trinity Railway Express (TRE) at North Beach Street project
(City Project No. 101865) and the 2018 Bond RR THE at Haltom project (City Project No. 104003) from the Grants Capital Project State Fund
31002 to the Grants Capital Projects Federal Fund 31001 at the request of Financial Management Services.
At the time M&C 22-0334 was approved the draft Advanced Funding Agreement (AFA) for the 2018 Bond RR THE at North Beach Street project
reflected funding was being received from the State; however, when the final AFA was received the funding was from the Federal government
necessitating the funding move.
At the time M&C 22-0333 was approved the draft AFA for the 2018 Bond RR THE at Haltom project reflected funding was being received from the
State; however, when the final AFA was received the funding was from the Federal government necessitating the funding move.
Recommendation 5 will adjust appropriations between a programmable project and convert the 2023 Downtown Resurfacing project (City
Project No. 104184) into a static project. This action is needed in order to swap the funding for Pay -As -You -Go (PayGo) funding recommended in
Recommendations 6 through 8 on this M&C. Funding for this project (P00020) was included in the FY2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program
for the year 2025. Decreased funding is needed for this project due to creating a static project.
Recommendation 6-8 is a reallocation of previously appropriated Bond Funds and PayGo capital funds (funding swap). The Forest Hill Dr at
Royal Crest project (City Project No. 103308) is a named intersection in the 2014 & 2022 Bond Programs. After being included and approved in
the 2022 Bond Program we learned that Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) & the North Central Texas Council of Governments
(NCTCOG) plan to completely rebuild Forest Hill Drive including this intersection in the next 6-10 years.
The improvements targeted in the 2022 Bond Program are desperately needed today. In an effort to deliver these improvements while honoring
the capitalization goals of the 2022 Bond Program, it is proposed to take the Bond funding in the Forest Hill Dr at Royal Crest project (City Project
No. 103308) and swap it with PayGo funding from the 2023 Downtown Resurfacing project (City Project No. 104184). The Downtown Resurfacing
project was recently completed and capitalized and provided pavement improvements to multiple intersections downtown. Approval of this
recommendation will find that the downtown repaving is consistent with the voted purpose of the bond.
Recommendation 9 will appropriate new developer funds from the Community Facilities Agreement (CFA) Developer Fund 30114. Funding is
budgeted in the CFA Developer Fund for the purpose of funding the CFA-Oak Grove Road South project (City Project No. 102802).
Recommendation 10 will appropriate estimated receipts and appropriations in the 2022 Bond Yr 1 — Contract 1 project (City Project No.
102918) in the amount of $402.58 and will decrease the receipts and appropriations in the Neighborhood School Safety Device
programmable project (City Project No. P00075) by the same amount. Both projects are in the Street Improvement CO's Residuals Fund 39412.
Approving this recommendation will allow for closeout of the Neighborhood School Safety Device Programmable project (City Project No.
P00075).
Recommendation 11 will appropriate $144,200.00 of available funds in the Government Community Facilities Agreement Fund for the purpose
of funding the Community Facilities Agreement Bucket project (City Project No. P00001).
Recommendation 12 will adjust appropriations and receipts in the Government Community Facilities Agreement Fund adding $200,000.00 to
the Oak Grove Road North of Joel East Road project (City Project No. 101902) and reducing the Unspecified project (City Project No. UNSPEC)
by the same amount to provide interim funding for inspection services.
Recommendation 13 will appropriate residual funds from the Community Facilities Agreement Developer Fund 30114 from the CFA-Oak Grove
Road South project (City Project No. 102802) to the Community Facilities Agreement Bucket programmable project (City Project No. P00001).
Recommendation 14-15 will correct appropriations in the 2018 Bond RR THE at Riverside project (City Project No. 104004) from the Grants
Capital Project State Fund 31002 to the Grants Capital Projects Federal Fund 31001 at the request of Financial Management Services.
At the time M&C 22-0335 was approved the draft AFA for the 2018 Bond Rail Railroad THE at Riverside project (City Project No.
104004) reflected funding was being received from the State; however, when the final AFA was received the funding was from the Federal
government necessitating the funding move.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
