Ci Council Agenda Summar Sheet ..................... Agenda Caption: Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute an Interlocal Agreement with Williamson County regarding funding for the construction of Kenney Fort Boulevard, from Joe DiMaggio Boulevard to Forest Creek Boulevard. Meeting Date: April 28, 2011 Department: Infrastructure Development and Construction Management Staff Person making presentation: Tom Word, P.E. Chief of Public Works Operations Item Summary: Kenney Fort Boulevard (Arterial A) is a major arterial roadway which will traverse Round Rock, eventually connecting from Georgetown to Pflugerville. The first phase of this roadway includes a six -lane divided section between Joe DiMaggio Boulevard and Forest Creek Drive, which will include a grade separated crossing of Palm Valley Boulevard (US 79) and the Union Pacific Railroad and a bridge over Brushy Creek. In addition to being an integral part of Round Rock's road network as adopted in the Transportation Master Plan, this segment of Kenney Fort will also provide access to approximately 500 acres just south of the UPRR which has previously been inaccessible and undeveloped except for agricultural uses. The overall estimated cost for this roadway is $28,000,000, which will be paid for with funds from Round Rock's Transportation System Development Corporation (formerly the "4B Corporation"). During the conceptual and development stages of this road project, Williamson County, led by former Commissioner Frankie Limmer and current Commissioner Ron Morrison, recognized the value this roadway brought to Round Rock and the region and pledged their support for this road. Subsequently, an Interlocal Agreement (ILA) was developed which reflects this pledge of support in the amount of $8,000,000. As detailed in the ILA, the project description and limits where this funding will be used include all expenses associated with the road between Joe DiMaggio Boulevard and Forest Creek Drive, but excluding the portion of roadway between the UPRR and Brushy Creek. The reason for this exclusion is that this specific portion of the roadway is the subject of a Roadway Impact Fee currently being contemplated by the City Council. Approval of the ILA will secure the County's participation in this important roadway and help to defer some of the City's costs associated with this facility. Strategic Plan Relevance: 20.0 - Infrastructure Attractive to Target Business 25.0 - Develop funding source mechanisms for mobility and connectivity options. 26.0 - Construct major elements of the transportation and mobility system as approved by Council in the Master Transportation Plan.
