HEARING:
SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Acceptance of a Grant from the Texas Department of Housing and
Community Affairs from the 2025 Low-Income Housing Energy Assistance Program, a
Federally Funded Program Sponsored by the United States Department of Health and
Human Services Designed to Provide Assistance for Low to Moderate Income Residents
to Lower Home Energy Costs through the City of Fort Worth Weatherization Assistance
Program, in an Amount Up to $811,911.00, Waive Indirect Costs of $44,574.85, Authorize
Execution of Related Contracts and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the acceptance of grant funds from the Texas Department of Housing and
Community Affairs in an amount up to $811,911.00 for the 2025 Low-Income Housing
Energy Assistance Program;
2. Authorize the execution of related contracts, including any renewals, amendments and
extensions, with the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs for the grant
funds;
3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations
in the Grants Operating Federal Fund, subject to receipt of the grant, in the amount up to
$811,911.00, for the purpose of funding the 2025 Low-Income Housing Energy Assistance
Program; and
4. Waive indirect costs of $44,574.85.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication is to approve acceptance of grant funds that
will be used to assist with weatherization and energy efficiency efforts in the homes of low-income
individuals in the City of Fort Worth (City) and Tarrant County. A contract for services between the City
and the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) will be executed upon receipt
of the contract from TDHCA in January 2025.
The Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) has been operated by the City since 1982. The bulk of
the funding for the program comes from the TDHCA through the Low-Income Housing Energy
Assistance Program (LIHEAP), which also administers grant funds from the United States Department
of Energy and the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Additional funds are
supplied by the Texas Association of Community Action Agencies (TACAA), which administers monies
allocated by Oncor Electric Delivery (Oncor) to provide a Low-Income Weatherization Program that
complements the federally funded WAP and provides assistance to Oncor's low-income customers for
energy efficiency measures.
The WAP will utilize LIHEAP grant funding to serve low-income residents in Tarrant County with
household incomes at or below 150\% of Federal Poverty Income Guidelines. WAP will assist these
residents by weatherizing their homes and making them more energy-efficient. TDHCA's LIHEAP will
be administered within existing WAP standards and guidelines, and through various contracts with
subcontractors. Weatherization measures include attic insulation, weather-stripping, caulking, repair
and/or replacement of windows and doors, and other minor repairs. All subcontractors performing any
eligible services for the City will not be paid until work is inspected and approved by Neighborhood
Services department staff. Administrative costs are restricted to seven percent of the LIHEAP grant
based on the total allowable expenditures for the LIHEAP. All Weatherization Assistance Program
funding will allow for up to 200 homes to be weatherized through the 2025 grant cycle.
Awaiver by the City of indirect costs will maximize program benefits. The LIHEAP grant provides
funding for 3.25 full-time positions within the Neighborhood Services department. The addition of
indirect costs would result in the reduction of staff and services. The estimated indirect costs that are
being asked to be waived is $44,574.85, calculated by taking salaries designated for this grant of
approximately $211,757.00 multiplied by the Neighborhood Service Departments' indirect cost rate
of 21.05\% defined in the City's most recent Cost Allocation Plan.
Positions funded with LIHEAP grant funds are subject to grant availability. In the event of a grant
award being decreased or eliminated, Neighborhood Services Department would review programs and

services funded by the grants and determine a level of service and staffing that aligns with the
available funding. Alternatives to consider may include staff and program reductions or eliminations.
This program services ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations, and adoption of
the attached appropriation ordinances, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as
appropriated, in the Grants Operating Federal Fund. Neighborhood Services (and Financial
Management Services) will be responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City.
Prior to expenditures being incurred, Neighborhood Services has the responsibility to validate the
availability of funds. This is a reimbursement grant.
