Discussion and possible action of the FM 1460 Pass-Through Finance Program Application -- Ed D.
Polasek
Discussion: Polasek explained that the application has been completed for the Pass Through
Financing, but staff has learned, from TxDOT that there are two possible items that could be put on
hold; 1) Prop 14 funds - letting the Bonds for that and the letting of the projects. In our area this will
impact the 195 project. 2) Pass Through Finance - TxDOT let the call in February with a June/July
decision time for TxDOT. What staff has been told from TxDOT
under the current structure and financing mechanisms, TxDOT is not sure if they can fund Pass
Through Financing program that they have set the call for. TxDOT will complete the call and do their
analysis, but staff is not certain if they are going to let any projects from this call.
Armour asked and Polasek said that money that was approved is still going to be spent, or at least a
portion of it will be. We are still going to complete the application so we will have a ready project
when the time comes.

were named NWA & NWB. These two roads were proposed off of Aviation Drive. These two roads
were not on the Bond package, but I would like to get the discussion started to see if they are possible
funding opportunities to enhance Economic Development and they would be connectors between
Airport Road and bridges at IH-35/SH 130.

Ranch area - Housing Development, possible Elementary School Site, and proposed commercial.

Edward G. Polasek, AICP, Principal Planner and Paul E. Brandenburg, City Manager
DiscussionDiscussionDiscussionDiscussion: Polasek stated that the Pass Through Financing is a tool that TxDOT uses to stretch tax
dollars and allow local communities to fund up front costs for constructing a state highway project.
The state then reimburses a portion of the cost to the community overtime by paying a fee for each
vehicle that drives on the new highway. The projects must be on a state highway system to be
eligible. In February 2009, Texas Transportation Commission approved a call for projects for this
program.
The City of Georgetown has voter approval for bonds for improvements to FM 1460. In order to utilize
those bonds in this program, with the possibility of TxDOT reimbursing the City to pay a portion of the
debt payments, staff is recommending the City submit the FM 1460 project. Since a portion of FM
1460 is in Williamson County and the City of Round Rock ETJ, staff is recommending we utilize the
planning services of Prime Strategies, Inc. Prime Strategies, Inc. has worked with Williamson County
on the Williams Drive Pass Through Finance Agreement and Williamson County & Round Rock on the
FM 1460 stimulus applications for the funded portion of improvements in Round Rock.
What staff is looking for today is the GTEC approve the expenditure of $36,000.00 to Prime
Strategies, Inc. for professional services related to managing the pass through finance proposal .
ActionActionActionAction: Motion by Sattler, seconded by Oliver to approve the expenditure of $36,000.00 to Prime
Strategies, Inc. for professional services related to managing the pass through finance proposal.

that construction would begin April 1, 2009 but due to the problems in the lending market and delays
in project applications, GHA is asking for an amendment to the project schedule. GHA is requesting a
new start date of April 1, 2010. Naomi Walker - Executive Director of GHA informed the Board on
what has being happening with the nonprofit and why there is this delay. What GHA is hoping for
today, is to get the extension, then reapply to Texas Department of Housing & Community Affairs
(TDHCA). There was extended discussion concerning this project, i.e. design, some of the materials
being used, onsite and offsite drainage, etc. It was asked if GHA would come back at a later date for
more money and the answer was no. It was also asked if this extension was not granted would this
project still move forward. Walker stated that yes the project would move forward but the offsite
drainage portion would be removed.
