Adopt the attached resolution authorizing execution of a Memorial Marker Highway Sign Agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation for installation of memorial signs on a portion of Loop 820 from Interstate Highway 35W to Marine Creek Parkway to honor fallen Officer Henry "Hank" Nava Jr.; and 2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Special Donations Capital Projects Fund, in the amount of $3,500.00 from Contributions From Others received from the applicant, for the purpose of funding the placement of honorary sign toppers (City Project No. 106437). DISCUSSION: The Texas Department of Transportation has a program for honoring deceased individuals who have made significant contributions to the lives of the people of the state. A request nominating such a designation for Officer Henry "Hank" Nava Jr. was received and reviewed by staff and the Texas Department of Transportation. The Texas Transportation Code, Sec. 225.004, provides for a local governmental entity to purchase and furnish to the department a suitable locally identifying memorial marker. Henry "Hank" Nava, Jr. was a Fort Worth Police Officer who was wounded in the line of duty on November 29th, 2005. Officer Nava suffered a gunshot wound during his Crime Response Team's effort to serve an arrest warrant at a home on the Northside of Fort Worth. While attempting to locate the wanted man, the man, who was hiding in the closet, emerged and began firing a handgun, wounding Officer Nava, who was taken to a local hospital, ultimately succumbing to his injuries on December 1, 2005. Officer Nava spent a total of 17 years in law enforcement serving the Fort Worth Police Department, Plano Police Department and Austin Park Police Department. Officer Nava was more than just a Fort Worth Police Officer, he was a husband, dad, son, brother, and friend to many. Officer Nava loved the City he worked for as well as the community, which was evident in everything he did. But most importantly he was a family man to his wife, Teresa, and children Kayl-eigh & Henry. In his spare time, he loved traveling to Disney World each year with his family and had a love for cruising to Mexico with Teresa. A map of the proposed designation is attached. The applicant will bear the cost of design and installation for two designation signs in the amount of $3,500.00. The Transportation and Public Works Department is responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City. The installation will not be completed if funds are not received from the applicant. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 2, 4, 7, and 11. A Form 1295 is not required because: This contract will be with a governmental entity, state agency or public institution of higher education: Texas Department of Transportation FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations, receipt of the funds, and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be deposited into the Special Donations Cap Projects Fund as appropriated. The Transportation and Public Works Department (and Financial Management Services) is responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City. Prior to any expense being incurred, the Transportation and Public Works Department also has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
