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 $214,500 are paid for by the City. The
grant will pay towards construction of the project.
The application process requires that the following statement be included
in the memo:

that exceeds the amount of the grant fund."
