LOG NAME: 201LA NISD BLUE MOUND RD & WILLOW SPRINGS RD
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of an Interlocal Agreement with the Northwest Independent School District in the
Amount of$545,463.98 for the Engineering Plans for the Construction of Blue Mound Road and Willow
Springs Road and Adopt Appropriation Ordinances (COUNCIL DISTRICT 7)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Transportation Impact fund in the amount of$262,633.61 from available funds;
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Special Assessments fund in the amount of$282,830.37 from available funds;
3. Authorize transfer of$282,830.37 from the Special Assessments fund to the TPW Community
Facilities Agreement fund;
4. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing the estimated receipts and appropriations in
the TPW Community Facilities Agreement fund in the amount of$282,830.37 from available funds;
and
5. Authorize execution of an Interlocal Agreement with the Northwest Independent School District in
the amount of$545,463.98 for reimbursement for the design of four lanes of Blue Mound Road from
US 287 to Willow Springs Road and four lanes of Willow Springs Road from Blue Mound Road to
Mesa Crest Drive.
DISCUSSION:
In accordance with the Community Facilities Agreement required for the improvements to the roadways
associated with the construction of a new high school located on Willow Springs Road, Northwest
Independent School District (NISD) engaged MJ Thomas Engineering, LLC to provide construction
drawings.
In addition to Willow Springs Road, it was determined that improvements to Blue Mound Road are needed
to serve the new high school and the proposed middle school. The City initiated discussions concerning
the joint funding of these projects with the NISD. Though Blue Mound Road does not adjoin the NISD
tract, in August 2012, NISD presented a draft Interlocal Agreement offering to design and construct Willow
Springs Road and Blue Mound Road with the understanding that the City would reimburse the District
when funds became available.

Anticipating such an Agreement, the City proposed reimbursement to NISD for the design of Blue Mound
Road and the City's portion of Willow Springs Road with Transportation Impact funds not to exceed
$650,000.00. In September 2012, NISD entered into a contract with MJ Thomas Engineering for the
design of Blue Mound and Willow Springs roads.
Because of the uncertainty of construction funds, it was determined that NISD would not construct the
roads, but would: 1) provide final engineering plans for Willow Springs and Blue Mound roads and 2)
enter into an Interlocal Agreement to be reimbursed for the engineering plans and to obligate payment of
its portion of the construction of Willow Springs Road.
NISD has continued with the engineering design of the projects while each party's financial obligations
were being finalized. Based on accepted engineer's estimates, this Interlocal Agreement establishes that
the City will reimburse NISD an amount not to exceed $394,576.47 for the engineering plans for Willow
Springs Road and $150,887.21 for the engineering plans for Blue Mound Road. It is recommended that
funding for this reimbursement be programmed using Transportation Impact Fees in Service Area B and
Future Development Funds.
Funding for the construction of Blue Mound Road was approved with the 2014 Bond Program.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7.

The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations
