Grapevine, CDBG Target Area designated as census tract 1137.03 Block
Group 4, in the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Low/Moderate
Income Survey Data (LMISD).
These improvements will contribute to the upgrade of the areas by
providing an improved travel surface for motorists and pedestrians in the
neighborhood.
The construction cost estimate for this project, including engineering, is
$1,322,500 of which approximately $175,000 is expected to be provided
by Tarrant County. The City's match is expected to be $1,147,500.
Engineering costs estimated to be $172,500 are paid for by the grant.
The application process requires that the following statement be included
in the memo:
"The City shall be responsible for all costs of the 49th Year CDBG project
that exceeds the amount of the grant fund."
Staff recommends approval.
