SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of Amendment to an Interlocal Agreement with the North Central Texas Council
of Governments for the Regional Storm Water Management Program
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to City
Secretary Contract No. 28148 with the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) for the
period of October 1, 2004, through September 30, 2005. The amendment specifies the City of Fort Worth's
cost share for administrative and implementation assistance as part of the regional storm water
management program is $16,270 during FY2004-2005.
DISCUSSION:
Storm water regulations included in the Clean Water Act pose a significant impact for seven Metroplex cities
(Fort Worth, Dallas, Arlington, Garland, Irving, Plano and Mesquite), the North Texas Tollway Authority and
the Texas Department of Transportation District Office in Fort Worth and Dallas. For the past several years,
representatives from these entities have worked together through the NCTCOG's Regional Urban Storm
Water Management Task Force in preparation for meeting storm water permit requirements. Because all of
the entities are required to implement many of the same programs, the potential for cost sharing and
coordination of programs exists.
The City first entered into an interlocal agreement with the NCTCOG to cover administrative support for
regional initiatives in November 1993. The City Council approved the current interlocal agreement for this
program on October 8, 2002, M&C-19280 for the period of October 1, 2002, through September 30, 2007.
The amendment specifies that the City of Fort Worth's share of administrative costs to be incurred by
NCTCOG during FY2004-2005 in support of the Regional Urban Storm Water Management Task Force and
its associated sub-committees is $16,270.
FISCAL INFORMATIONICERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of
the General Fund.
