FUNDING SOURCE: Upon approval of the attached appropriation ordinance, $791,164 will be available in the Grants Fund 113. BACKGROUND: Phases I, II, III and IV of the Connector landscaping project are complete creating 2.5 miles of welcoming corridors into our community along State Highway 114 and FM 2499. Phase V is located at the merger of State Highway 121 and State Highway 360. The addition of landscaping will enhance this designated southern gateway into the City from and including a section of Stone -Myers Parkway northward to Timberline Drive. The total cost of this phase is $791,164, of which Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will provide funding in the amount of $500,000 through the Green Ribbon Program and $250,000 through the Governor's Community Grant award. The Community Grant award is now limited by the State of Texas to highway landscaping and irrigation projects - so the use as a match to the Green Ribbon project is our only option for that particular grant's use given the rule change. The remaining balance of $41,164 will come from the Quality of Life Fund. The City of Grapevine has received funding for all five phases. These projects are funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and TxDOT Green Ribbon program. The Green Ribbon program provides no allowances for cost overruns; therefore, the City will cover any cost overruns that may arise. Bids were taken in accordance with Local Government Code Chapter 252, Subchapter B, Section 252.021 (a) and Section 252.041 (a). The bid was advertised in the Fort Worth Star-Telegramon July 3 and July 10, 2019. It was also posted on the Texas Electronic State Business Daily.
