costs the State incurs on the local project, unless this agreement is terminated at the request
of the Local Government prior to completion of the project.
j. If the local project has been approved for a "specified percentage" or an "incremental payment"
non-standard funding or payment arrangement under 43 TAC §15.52, the LPAFA will clearly
state the amount of the specified percentage or the incremental payment schedule.
k. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts has determined that certain counties qualify as
Economically Disadvantaged Counties (EDC) in comparison to other counties in the state as
below average per capita property value, and below average per capita income, and above
average unemployment, for certain years. The LPAFA will reflect adjustments to the standard
financing arrangement based on this designation.
I. The State will not execute the contract for the construction of a local project until the required
funding has been made available by the Local Government in accordance with the LPAFA.
13. Right of Way and Real Property
The Local Government is responsible for the provision and acquisition of any needed right of
way or real property, unless the State agrees to participate in the provision of right of way under
the procedures described herein as parts A and B of this provision.
Title to right of way and other related real property must be acceptable to the State before funds
may be expended for the improvement of the right of way or real property.
If the Local Government is the owner of any part of a project site under an LPAFA, the Local
Government shall permit the State or its authorized representative access to occupy the site to
perform all activities required to execute the work under the LPAFA.
All parties to this agreement will comply with and assume the costs for compliance with all the
requirements of Title II and Title III of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, Title 42 U.S.C.A. Section 4601 et seq., including those
provisions relating to incidental expenses incurred by the property owners in conveying the real
property to the Local Government, and benefits applicable to the relocation of any displaced
person as defined in 49 CFR Section 24.2(g). Documentation to support such compliance must
be maintained and made available to the State and its representatives for review and inspection.
If the local government purchases right of way for a local government street, title will be acquired
in the name of the local government in accordance with applicable laws unless specifically
stated otherwise in the LPAFA and approved by the State.
If the State participates in the purchase of right of way for the state, it will be under the
processes established in the following paragraphs A or B, and the selected option shall be
specified in the LPAFA.
A. Purchase By the State for the State
The State will assume responsibility for acquisition of all necessary right of way for the
highway project. The Local Government will voluntarily contribute to the State funds equal to
AFA-MAFA_Contract Page 5 of 12 Revised 2/26/2016
Master Advance Funding Agreement Contract Number: CS-18-MAFA-216
ten (10) percent of the cost of the right of way for the proper development and construction of
the state highway system and shall transmit to the State a warrant or check payable to the
Texas Department of Transportation when notified by the State of the estimated cost of the
right of way. If the amount is found insufficient to pay the Local Government's obligation,
then the Local Government, upon request of the State, will supplement this amount in such
amount as requested by the State. Upon completion of the highway project and in the event
the total amount paid by the Local Government is more than ten (10) percent of the actual
cost of the right of way, any excess amount will be returned to the Local Government. Cost
of the right of way by the State shall mean the total value of compensation paid to owners,
including but not limited to utility owners, for their property interests either through
negotiations or eminent domain proceedings.
B. Purchase by the Local Government for the State
Purchase: Right of way purchases shall be a joint effort of the State and the Local
Government. Acquisition of right of way shall be in accordance with the terms of this
agreement and in accordance with applicable Federal and State laws governing the
acquisition policies for acquiring real property. The State agrees to reimburse the Local
Government for its share of the cost of such right of way providing acquisition when it has
been authorized to proceed by the State.
Location Surveys and Preparation of Right of Way Data: The State, without cost to the
Local Government, will do the necessary preliminary engineering and title investigation in
order to supply to the Local Government the data and instruments necessary to obtain
acceptable title to the desired right of way.
Determination of Right of Way Values: The Local Government agrees to make a
determination of property values for each right of way parcel by methods acceptable to the
Local Government and to submit to the State's District Office a tabulation of the values so
determined, signed by the appropriate Local Government representative. Such tabulations
shall list the parcel numbers, ownership, acreage and recommended compensation.
Compensation shall be shown in the component parts of land acquired, itemization of
improvements acquired, damages (if any), and the amounts by which the total
compensation will be reduced if the owner retains improvements. This tabulation shall be
accompanied by an explanation to support the determined values, together with a copy of
information or reports used in arriving at all determined values. Such work will be
performed by the Local Government at its expense without cost participation by the State.
The State will review the data submitted and may base its reimbursement on the values
which are determined by this review. The State, however, reserves the right to perform at
its own expense any additional investigation deemed necessary, including supplemental
appraisal work by State employees or by employment of fee appraisers, all as may be
necessary for determination of values to constitute the basis for State reimbursement. If at
any stage of the project development it is determined by mutual -agreement between the
State and Local Government that the requirement for the Local Government to submit to
the State property value determinations for any part of the required right of way should be
waived, the Local Government will make appropriate written notice to the State of such
waiver, such notice to be acknowledged in writing by the State. In instances of such waiver,
the State by its due processes and at its own expense will make a determination of values
to constitute the basis for State reimbursement.
Negotiations: The State will notify the Local Government as soon as possible as to the
State's determination of value. Negotiation and settlement with the property owner will be
the responsibility of the Local Government without participation by the State; however, the
Local Government will notify the State immediately prior to closing the transaction so that a
AFA-MAFA_Contract Page 6 of 12 Revised 2/26/2016
Master Advance Funding Agreement Contract Number: CS-18-MAFA-216
current title investigation may be made to determine if there has been any change in the
title. The Local Government will deliver properly executed instruments of conveyance which
together with any curative instruments found to be necessary as a result of the State's title
investigation will be properly vest title in the State for each right of way parcel involved. The
costs incidental to negotiation and the costs of recording the right of way instruments will be
the responsibility of the Local Government. The cost of title investigation will be the
responsibility of the State.
Condemnation: Condemnation proceedings will be initiated at a time selected by the Local
Government and will be the Local Government's responsibility at its own expense except as
hereinafter indicated. The Local Government will obtain from the State without cost current
title information and engineering data at the time condemnation are to be indicated. Except
as hereinafter set forth the Local Government will concurrently file condemnation
proceedings and a notice of lis pendens for each case in the name of the State, and in
each case so filed the judgment of the court will decree title to the property condemned to
the State. The Local Government may, as set forth herein under "Excess Takings" and
where it is determined to be necessary, enter condemnation proceedings in its own name.
Property acquired in the Local Government's name for the State must comply with
requirements set forth in the engineering data and title investigation previously furnished to
the Local Government by the State at such time as the Local Government conveys said
property to the State.
Court Costs, Costs of Special Commissioners' Hearings and Appraisal Expense: Court
costs and costs of Special Commissioners' hearings assessed against the State or Local
Government in condemnation proceedings conducted on behalf of the State and fees
incident thereto will be paid by the Local Government. Such costs and fees, with the
exception of recording fees, will be eligible for ninety (90) percent State reimbursement
under the established reimbursement procedure provided such costs and fees are eligible
for payment by the State under existing law. Where the Local Government uses the State's
appraisers employed on a fee basis in Special Commissioners' hearings or subsequent
appeals, the cost of the appraiser for updating the report, for preparing new reports,
preparing for court testimony and appearing in court to testify in support of the appraisal will
be paid direct by the Local Government, but will be eligible for ninety (90) percent State
reimbursement under established procedure provided prior approval for such appraiser has
been obtained from the State. The fee paid the appraiser by the Local Government shall be
in accordance with the fee schedule set forth in the appraiser's contract for appraisal
services with the State.
Excess Takings: In the event the Local Government desires to acquire land in excess of
that requested by the State for right of way purposes, the State's cost participation will be
limited to the property needed for its purposes. If the Local Government elects to acquire
the entire property, including the excess taking, by a single instrument of conveyance or in
one eminent domain proceeding, the property involved will be acquired in the name of the
Local Government and that portion requested by the State for right of way will be
separately conveyed to the State by the Local Government. When acquired by negotiation,
the State's participation will be based on the State's approved value of that part of the
property requested for right of way purposes, provided that such approved value does not
exceed actual payment made by the Local Government. When acquired by condemnation,
the State's participation will be in the proportionate part of the final judgment amount
computed on the basis of the relationship of the State's approved value to the State's
predetermined value for the whole property.
AFA-MAFA_Contract Page 7 of 12 Revised 2/26/2016
Master Advance Funding Agreement Contract Number: CS-18-MAFA-216
Improvements: Property owners will be afforded an opportunity in the negotiations to
retain any or all of their improvements in the right of way taking. In anticipation of the owner
desiring to retain improvements, the State's approved value will include the amounts by
which the upper limit of State participation will be reduced for the retention. It is further
agreed that the upper limit for the State's participation in the Local Government's cost for
an improved parcel will be reduced as shown in the State's approved value where the
owner retains an improvement which is to be moved by either the Local Government or the
owner. In the event improvements, which are, in whole or part, a part of the right of way
taking are not retained by the owner; title is to be secured in the name of the State.
The State will participate in the acquisition of a structure severed by the right of way line if
the part of the house, building or similar structure which lies outside the right of way cannot
be reconstructed adequately or there is nothing but salvage left, provided that the State's
value is established on this basis and provided that title to the entire structure is taken in
the name of the State. The State shall dispose of all improvements acquired. The net
revenue derived by the State from the disposition of any improvements sold through the
Texas Facilities Commission will be credited to the cost of the right of way procured and
shared with the Local Government.
Relocation of Utilities on Acquired State Right of Way: If the required right of way
encroaches upon an existing utility located on its own right of way and the proposed
highway construction requires the adjustment, removal or relocation of the utility facility, the
State will establish the necessity for the utility work. State participation in the cost of making
the necessary change, less any resulting increase in the value to the utility and less any
salvage value obtainable, may be obtained by either the "actual cost" or "lump sum"
procedures. Reimbursement under "actual cost" will be made subsequent to the Local
Government's certification that the work has been completed and will be made in an
amount equal to ninety (90) percent of the eligible items of cost as paid to the utility owner.
The "lump sum" procedure requires that the State establishes the eligibility of the utility
work and enters into a three -party agreement, with the owners of the utility facilities and the
Local Government, which sets forth the exact lump sum amount of reimbursement, based
on a prior appraisal. The utility will be reimbursed by the Local Government after proper
certification by the utility that the work has been done, said reimbursement to be the basis
of the prior lump sum agreement. The State will reimburse the Local Government in an
amount equal to ninety (90) percent of the firm commitment as paid to the utility owner.
The foregoing is subject to the provision that the individual lump sum approved value shall
not exceed $20,000, except as specifically approved by the State. In those cases where a
single operation is estimated to exceed $20,000 the transaction will be brought to the
attention of the State for determination of proper handling based upon the circumstances
involved. Such utility firm commitment will be an appropriate item of right of way. The
adjustment, removal or relocation of any utility line on publicly owned right of way by
sufferance or permit will not be eligible for State reimbursement. The term "utility" under
this agreement shall include publicly, privately and cooperatively owned utilities.
Fencing Requirements: The Local Government may either pay the property owner for
existing right of way fences based on the value such fences contribute to the part taken and
damages for an unfenced condition resulting from the right of way taking, in which case the
estimated value of such right of way fences and such damages will be included in the
recommended value and the approved value, or the Local Government may do the fencing
on the property owner's remaining property.
Where the Local Government performs right of way fencing as a part of the total right of
way consideration, neither the value of existing right of way fences nor damages for an
AFA-MAFA_Contract Page 8 of 12 Revised 2/26/2016
P•/Iaster,Advance Funding Agreement Contract Number: CS-18-MAFA-216
unfenced condition will be included in the recommended value or the approved value. State
participation in the Local Government's cost of constructing right of way fencing on the
property owner's remainder may be based on either the actual cost of the fencing or on a
predetermined lump sum amount. The State will be given credit for any salvaged fencing
material and will not participate in any overhead costs of the Local Government.
If State participation is to be requested on the lump sum basis, the State and the Local
Government will reach an agreement prior to the actual accomplishment of the work as to
the necessity, eligibility and a firm commitment as to the cost of the entire fencing work to
be performed. The foregoing is subject to the provision that the lump sum approved cost
shall not exceed $20,000, except as specifically approved by the State. In the event the
cost of the fencing is estimated to exceed $20,000, the transaction will be brought to the
attention of the State for determination of proper handling based upon the circumstances
involved.
Reimbursement: The State will reimburse the Local Government for right of way acquired
after the date of this agreement in amount not to exceed ninety (90) percent of the cost of
the right of way acquired in accordance with the terms and provisions of this agreement.
The State's reimbursement will be in the amount of ninety (90) percent of the State's
predetermined value of each parcel, or the net cost thereof, whichever is the lesser
amount.
If condemnation is necessary and title is taken as set forth herein under the section entitled
"Condemnation," the participation by the State shall be based on the final judgment,
conditioned upon the State having been notified in writing prior to the filing of such suit and
upon prompt notice being given as to all action taken therein. The State shall have the right
to become a party to the suit at any time for all purposes, including the right of appeal at
any stage of the proceedings. All other items of cost shall be borne by the State and the
Local Government as provided in other sections of this agreement. If a lump sum fencing
or utility adjustment agreement has been executed, the State will reimburse the Local
Government in the amount of ninety (90) percent of the predetermined lump sum cost of
the right of way fencing or utility adjustment.
If the Local Government prefers not to execute a lump sum agreement for either fencing or
utility adjustments, the State will reimburse on the actual cost of such fencing or
adjustments. The Local Government's request for reimbursement will be supported by a
breakdown of the labor, materials and equipment used.
General: It is understood that the terms of this agreement shall apply to new right of way
authorized and requested by the State which is needed and not yet dedicated, in use or
previously acquired in the name of the State or Local Government for highway, street or
road purposes. This agreement shall also apply, with regard to any existing right of way, to
outstanding property interests not previously acquired and to eligible utility adjustments not
previously made, as authorized and requested by the State.
It is further understood that if unusual circumstances develop in the right of way acquisition
which are not clearly covered by the terms of this agreement, such unusual circumstances
or problems will be resolved by mutual agreement between the State and the Local
Government.
