Take another action the City Council deems appropriate.
IV. BACKGROUND
Grapevine was one of the proposers that responded to the Authority’s October, 2017 RFP. This ENA is for Cell 1, and gives them a right to propose on the remainder cells during the initial period. This action is to approve a Deposit and Reimbursement Agreement that covers both the City’s and Authority’s costs.
V. FISCAL IMPACT
The City has already received $250,000 in deposits. In addition, the Authority and City will receive a $2,000,000 deposit from Grapevine to be used for the costs described above. Finally, Grapevine will commence paying its $22,500 pro rata costs toward Site Carrying Costs.
