www.cityofkennedale.com CITY HALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS, 405 MUNICIPAL DRIVE
WORK SESSION - 5:30 PM I REGULAR SESSION - 7:00 PM
I. CALL TO ORDER
Mayor Brian Johnson called the meeting to order at 5:21 p.m.
II. WORK SESSION
A. Discussion of Proposed FY2017-18 Budget
Director of Finance Brady Olsen stated that Council had been provided today with a copy of a
staff report, dated August 13 (including alternatives (Scenarios A, B, C, and D) to the Proposed
Budget, based on Council direction) and a newly drafted memo with an additional consideration
(Scenario E) that is based on Scenario A but does not delay the ambulance purchase.
Olsen noted that each cent of the property tax rate translated to roughly $65,000 in revenue.
In response to Mayor Pro Tern Jan Joplin's question, Campbell responded that the budget
could, indeed, be amended by Council throughout the year, but the tax rate could not.
In response to Mayor Johnson's question about how staff arrived at the cuts proposed in the
scenarios, Campbell stated that staff identified items that were neither legally nor contractually
obligated and, to the extent possible, avoided departments Council stated should not be cut.
Councilmember Sandra Lee stated that she supported the 2% pay adjustment and wanted to
avoid any cuts to the Library.
In response to Mayor Pro Tern Joplin's question about how many years the city had operated at
a deficit, Olsen stated that FY16-17 was the first since 2012. Olsen stated that under Scenario
E, the erosion of the fund balance would be less than the originally proposed budget, but that it
would still drop below the target of 18 to 20% of annual expenditures. Campbell added that this
was the reasoning behind the proposed two-cent tax rate increase.
In response to Mayor Johnson's question about the health of other fund balances, Olsen stated
that the Water Fund is expected to be balanced in roughly three years. Mayor Johnson noted,
however, that this fund's increasing balance was to the detriment of the Street Fund.
At the Mayor's request, Community Development Director Rachel Roberts discussed the City's
implementation of form-based zoning to encourage commercial development. She noted that
some existing businesses were granted variances, but that the goal was to bring all structures
into compliance with the adopted zoning.
In response to Councilmember Gilley's question about the process of amending the budget,
Olsen replied that it was typically done in blocks, rather than item-by-item, and noted that staff
would prefer to minimize amendments, as they make planning difficult.

I. Subject:
Consider adopting Resolution 515, waiving the local matching funds on the New Hope Road Bridge
Project, and applying those funds, instead, to other local approved structures
II. Originated by:
Larry Hoover, Streets and Parks Supervisor
III. Summary:
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) performs bridge and culvert inspections on
several structures in Kennedale. Two culverts on South New Hope Road have been deemed dilapidated
and replacement is necessary. TXDOT has commissioned a project to replace the structures and return
them to an acceptable status in the National Bridge Inventory.
New Hope Road Bridge Project
The Federal Off-System Bridge Program (administered by TxDOT) has notified the City of Kennedale that
the Texas Administrative Code, Title 43,Section 15.55(d) is now in effect, providing that the local match
fund participation requirement may be waived on an authorized federal off-system bridge project (such as
New Hope Road), providing the local government agrees to perform structural improvement work in a
dollar amount equivalent to the local participation, on other deficient bridge(s) or cross-drainage
structure(s)within its jurisdiction. The funding for the project is an 80-10-10 split (federal-state-city), based
on an estimate of construction costs. An estimate has been generated and indicates the City's
contribution to be $115,321.70.
The local match projects are on Averitt Road and Valley Lane and have been approved for the local
match equivalent project(s) by TxDOT. The Funds for the City's matching funds for the project are
included in the Stormwater Capital Fund at$125,000. The two local project cost estimates are included in
your packet and total $214,946.00, of which $115,321.70 will satisfy our 10% matching fund requirement.
The City will be responsible for the remainder of the cost. Both projects address issues listed in the latest
inspection performed by TxDOT. The Valley Lane project cost is partially covered in the Stormwater
Capital Budget, as Valley Lane improvements and can be easily separated and adjusted as the estimates
are finalized and approved for construction in the coming budget year.
The TxDOT bid letting date for this project is scheduled for August of 2020.
Staff recommends approval.

Kennedale,Texas 76060
Dear Mr. Ledbetter:
Texas Administrative Code, Title 43, Section 15.55(d) (43 TAC Section 15.55(d)) is now in effect
providing that the usual 10 percent local match fund participation requirement may be waived on an
authorized federal off-system bridge program project, providing the Local Government agrees to
perform structural improvement work in a dollar-amount equivalent to the local participation, on
other deficient bridge(s) or cross-drainage structure(s) within its jurisdiction. The project on which
the local fund participation requirement is to be waived is referred to as the "participation-waived
project", while the project or projects on which the Local Government agrees to perform structural
improvement work in return for the participation waiver, is referred to as the."equivalent-match
project(s)."
With written request by the Local Government, consideration may be given to such waiver on any
federal off-system bridge project within the Local Government's jurisdiction or an adjacent or
overlapping jurisdiction that is currently authorized for construction, but the contract for construction
has not-yet been awarded. However, the department is unable to reimburse escrow funds that have
already been paid by the Local Government.
The waiver request must include the location(s), description of structural improvement work
proposed, and estimated cost for the proposed equivalent-match project(s),together with a copy of
the Local Governing body's resolution.
Such requests will be reviewed and considered according to the requirements of 43 TAC Section
15.55(d), and the Local Government will be notified accordingly. If waiver approval is granted, such
approval must then be manifested through written agreement executed between the State and the
Local Government.

organization shall be three dollars and fifty cents ($3.50) beginning November 1, 2014.
