Mayor and Council Communication
DATE: 04/22/25 M&C FILE NUMBER: M&C 25-0329
LOG NAME: 60NSIVEST30INWTMEXT-WESTWOOD
SUBJECT
(CD 10 and Wise County) Authorize Execution of an Engineering Agreement with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. in the Amount of
$173,000.00 for the Northside IV Elevated Storage Tank — 30 Inch Water Transmission Main Extension Project, Adopt Resolution Expressing
Official Intent to Reimburse Expenditures from Proceeds of Future Debt Project and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance to Effect a Portion of Water's
Contribution to Fiscal Years 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
Authorize execution of an engineering agreement with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. in the amount of $173,000.00 for the Northside
IV Elevated Storage Tank — 30 inch Water Transmission Main Extension project;
Adopt the attached resolution expressing Official Intent to Reimburse expenditures with proceeds of future enterprise fund debt for the
Northside IV Elevated Storage Tank — 30 inch Water Transmission Main Extension project; and
Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance adjusting appropriations in the Water & Sewer Commercial Paper Fund by increasing
appropriations in the Northside IV Elevated Storage Tank — 30 inch Water Transmission Main Extension project (City Project No. 106202) in
the amount of $323,700.00 and decreasing appropriations in the Commercial Paper project (City Project No. UCMLPR) by the same
amount, to effect a portion of Water's contribution to the Fiscal Years 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program.
DISCUSSION:
This Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize a contract with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. in the amount of $173,000.00
for the preparation of plans and specifications for Northside IV Elevated Storage Tank — 30 inch Water Transmission Main Extension project. The
proposed project will provide for the design of a 30-inch water main extension to deliver water to the Northside IV Elevated Storage Tank that will
be constructed by the Water Department at the southwest corner of the Alpha Ranch property. The tank will provide capacity and delivery reliability
in the Northside IV service area.
In addition to the contract amount, $150,700.00 is required for project management, real property acquisitions, utility coordination, and material
testing. This project will have no impact on the Water Department's operating budget when completed.
Available cash within the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio along with the appropriation authority authorized under the Callable
Commercial Paper Program (CP) will be used to provide interim financing for this project until debt is issued. Once debt associated with this
project is sold, bond proceeds will be used to reimburse the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio in accordance with the attached
reimbursement resolution. Under federal law, debt must be issued within approximately three years in order for these expenses to be
reimbursable. Adoption of the attached resolution does not obligate the City to sell bonds, but preserves the ability of the City to reimburse itself
from tax-exempt bond proceeds.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its CIP plan throughout the Fiscal Year (FY), instead of within the annual budget ordinance,
as projects commence, additional funding needs are identified, and to comply with bond covenants. The actions in the M&C will appropriate funds
in support of the Water's portion of the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Years 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program, as follows:
