' ~~ ynthia ingleton, TRMC, CMC City Secretary CITY OF COLLEYVILLE /~--'~-~ David Kell ~ Y Mayor Exhibit "A" MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING S.H. 26 from Brumlow/Pool to Cheek Sparger City of Colleyville, Tarrant County, Regional Transportation Council, and Texas Department of Transportation This memorandum of understanding (MOU) is intended to outline the agreement regarding the funding strategy for S.H. 26 from Brumlow/Pool to Cheek-Sparger. I. BACKGROUND In July 2010, the northern segment of S.H. 26 from S.H. 114 to Brumlow/Pool let using American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funding, which created significant cost savings and released Tarrant County, Regional Transportation Council (RTC), and Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) funds previously committed to that segment. Subsequently, Tarrant County, the City of Colleyville, TxDOT, and RTC agreed to fund the next segment on S.H. 26 from Brumlow/Pool to John McCain utilizing the cost savings from the northern segment and partially advancing funds from TIP 11153/CSJ 0363-01-114 (S.H. 26 from Brumlow/Pool to Cheek-Sparger. Please note that the RTC cost savings from the S.H. 26 from S.H. 114 to Brumlow/Pool section were transferred from the Western to Eastern Subregion, and are no longer available to this project. Through this document, the impacted parties hereby state the terms of agreement and concur with the resulting commitments made as a part of this funding strategy. S.H. 26 FROM BRUMLOW/POOL TO JOHN MCCAIN The project is described as the construction of S.H. 26 from Brumlow/Pool to John McCain, 4 to 6 lanes, add curb and gutter, storm sewer, replace bridges, upgrade signal system, and the bridge widening for the trail crossing over Big Bear Creek; Construction costs are estimated at $11,110,000. Committed Funding by Agency: $ 4,000,000 - Tarrant County Commitment $ 5,070,000 - City of Colleyville Commitment (includes funding originally identified for SH 26 at Tinker Road intersection improvement) $ 1,608,000 - RTC Commitment (federal share of Surface Transportation Program - Metropolitan Mobility Funds or STP-MM Funds) $ 402,000 - TxDOT Commitment of State Match to the STP-MM Funds $11,080,000 The project is scheduled to let for construction by the end of TxDOT's FY 2011 (August 2011), but may occur earlier if the construction plans can be finalized, and city and franchise utilities can be moved. Therefore, all funds must be available in FY 2011. If the project bids for less than available funding, at project close out, each entity's contribution will be reduced by its share of the total funding (i.e., 36% Tarrant County, 45.9% City of Colleyville, 14.5% RTC, and 3.6% TxDOT). TxDOT's share is directly tied to RTC's share (STP-MM), as TxDOT is matching the STP-MM funds. Any reduced funds (i.e., cost savings) will be utilized for other segments of SH 26 further to the south in the City of Colleyville. RTC/TxDOT agree to cover reasonable and necessary contingency and change order costs. To this end, an additional $400,000 in federal STP-MM funds and $100,000 in State matching funds will be reserved for this purpose. If these funds are not used, they will be moved to the next section of S.H. 26 (from John McCain to Hall-Johnson Road). III. S.H. 26 FROM JOHN MCCAIN TO HALL-JOHNSON RD The balance of funds from TIP 11153/CSJ 0363-01-114 will be reserved for the next section of S.H. 26 from John McCain to Hall-Johnson Rd in order to widen from 4 to 6 lanes, add curb and gutter, storm sewer, replace bridges, and upgrade signal system. Committed Funding by Agency: $10,926,115 - RTC Commitment (STP-MM Funds) $ 2,731.528 - TxDOT Commitment of State Match to the STP-MM $13,657,643 In addition, TxDOT commits to funding and completing the right-of-way acquisition phase, the City of Colleyville commits to moving the necessary municipal utilities, and TxDOT will coordinate with the franchise utility companies to ensure that their utilities are moved. Project funding is currently anticipated to be available by FY 2015. If funding becomes available earlier, and the necessary pre-construction activities have been completed, RTC and TxDOT will attempt to let the project for construction earlier. Otherwise, it is anticipated that the project will let in the FY 2015 timeframe. IV. S.H. 26 FROM HALL-JOHNSON RD TO CHEEK-SPARGER Funding in the foreseeable future is unavailable for this section. The City should continue to work with TxDOT, RTC, and Tarrant County to identify and apply for future funding programs. While this segment will have to compete for funding in future funding initiatives, NCTCOG will consider the previously funded status of this segment in making future funding decisions. V. SIGNATURE OF AGREEMENT This agreement is contingent upon approval of the terms outlined herein by the policy body of each impacted party. The Regional Transportation Council (RTC) approved the above project changes in January 2011.
