FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 17, 2026
SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE 52ND YEAR COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM APPLICATION
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to conduct a public hearing to receive public input relative to
the proposed 52nd Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Program, street reconstruction project, and authorize staff to proceed with
the application submittal to Tarrant County.
FUNDING SOURCE: This item does not require funds to be spent.
BACKGROUND: The scope of the project is the reconstruction of the 300 block of Eckley
Street (from E. Texas Steet to E. Worth Street) including approximately
420 lineal feet of a 30-foot-wide roadway, curb and gutters, sidewalks,
handicap ramps and driveway approaches.
The roadway reconstruction project is located in the Original Town of
Grapevine, CDBG Target Area designated as census tract 1137.12 Block
Group 3, in the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Low/Moderate
Income Survey Data (LMISD) and meets the requirements for CDBG
Funding.
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
$603,000 of which approximately $160,000 is expected to be provided by
Tarrant County. The City's match is expected to be $443,000.
The Application Process requires that the following statement be included
in the memo:
"The City shall be responsible for all costs of the 52nd Year CDBG project
that exceeds the amount of the grant fund."
Staff recommends approval.
