BACKGROUND Local Government and State have adopted a Master Agreement that states the general terms and conditions for transportation projects developed through this LPAFA. Local Government prepared and submitted to North Central Texas Council of Governments a nomination form for consideration under the Transportation Alternatives Program ("TAP")for the project,which is briefly described as Trinity Trails—East Fort Worth Extension ("Project"). Federal law establishes federally funded programs for transportation improvements to implement its public purposes. Federal law, 23 USC § 134 and 49 USC§5303, requires that State and metropolitan planning organizations develop transportation plans and programs for urbanized areas of Texas. Tex.Transp. Code §§ 201.103 and 222.052 establish that State shall design, construct, and operate a system of highways in cooperation with local governments. Federal and state laws require local governments to meet certain contract standards relating to the management and administration of State and federal funds. The Texas Transportation Commission ("Commission") passed Minute Order Number 114213 ("MO") dated February 26, 2015 awarding funding for projects in the 2014 TAP Program Call of the, including Project. The rules and procedures for TAP are established in 23 USC§ 213, and 43 Tex.Admin. Code Subchapter 11.F. The governing body of Local Government has approved entering into this LPAFA by resolution or ordinance dated k). ta "; which is attached to and made a part of this LPAFA as Attachment A. Therefore, State and Local Government agree as follows: f; AFA-LPAFA—TAP Page 1 of 13 Revised 2015-07-09 f CSJ: 0902-90-031 District#: 02-Fort Worth Code Chart 64#: 15000 Project:Trinity Trails—East Fort Worth Extension FHWA CFDA#: 20.205 Not Research and Development AGREEMENT 1.

On May 20, 2014, (M&C G-18208) the City Council authorized the City Manager to submit an application for funding for the East Fort Worth Trail Extension Project. On October 13, 2014, TxDOT notified the City of Fort Worth that the East Fort Worth Trail Extension Project was selected for funding. The East Fort Worth Trail Extension Project will serve as an extension of the Trinity Trail System further into east Fort Worth. The proposed trail improvements would include the construction of a ten (10) foot wide concrete trail with two foot shoulders and all other necessary grading and drainage improvements. Staff is working closely with Streams &Valleys, Inc., and Tarrant Acquisition, LTD., to partner with the City in providing engineering and right-of-way. The required local cash match in the amount of$567,174.00 will be funded from the 2014 Bond Program as part of the original project scope for enhancements to the Trinity River corridor in the vicinity of the Trinity River. Additionally, the City is responsible for all design and engineering costs. It is anticipated that a developer in the area through whose land the trail traverses, will fund the design and engineering costs, in an anticipated amount of$220,120.00. Direct State costs in the amount of$19,812.00 are also required from the City, of which $18,710.00 will be paid with future allocations from the 2014 Bond Program and $1,102.00 will be paid from the General Fund as an advance payment required at the time the LPAFA is executed. This project is included in the 2014 Bond Program. Funding from the 2014 Bond Program, Proposition Two, provides for walks and trails in the amount of$1,500,000.00. These funds are designated for new trails and bridges from Quanah Parker Park to the City of Arlington's trail system, including a trail connection from Mallard Cove Park to the Trinity Trails System. The remaining balance of$914,116.00 will be used to extend the trail east to the Fort Worth City limits and to Mallard Cove Park. Available resources within the General Fund will be used to provide interim financing until debt is issued. Once debt associated with these projects is sold, bond proceeds will reimburse the General Fund in accordance with the statement expressing official Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part of the ordinance canvassing the bond election (Ordinance No. 21241-05-2014). This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 4 and 5.
