CTMGT Alpha Ranch, LLC (Developer) is constructing the Alpha Ranch development project located south of Highway 114 and west of John Day

Ranch Master Ranch Infrastructure sewer main project is assigned City Project No. 105879 and Accela System Record IPRC24-0218.
This project has been publicly bid. The City's cost participation in the oversizing of the sewer main is estimated to be in an amount up to
$6,654,518.07, as shown in the table below. Payments to the Developer are estimated to be: $5,551,102.06 for construction costs, $8,358.23 for

The reimbursement of the City participation is not a lump sum amount and may be less than the stated amount depending upon the actual
quantities and unit prices from the Notice of Final Completion package, commonly referred to as the Green Sheet package.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) 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 2026-2030 CIP.
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.
Funding is available in the Commercial Paper project within the Water & Sewer Commercial Paper Fund for the purpose of funding the CFA-
Alpha Ranch MI Sewer project.
Funding for the CFA— Alpha Ranch MI Sewer water project is as depicted in the table below:
