A construction contract with McDonald Municipal & Industrial for the Fire Station 3 Emergency Stand-by Power Generator project, not to exceed $230,081, the lowest of six bids opened Sept. 22; the report says the station opened in 2001 without a permanent backup generator, that FEMA selected the project for Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funding under project 4586-0263 in an award amount of $185,784 on a 90/10 cost share, that FEMA will reimburse up to $167,205.60 in eligible construction costs for an anticipated net city cost of $62,875.40, and that construction is expected to begin in November 2026 and finish by May 2027. Combined Fire Department and Police Department uniform purchases from M-Pak, Inc., not to exceed $130,000, which the report splits as up to $60,000 for police and up to $70,000 for fire. A services agreement with Siddons Martin Emergency Group, LLC for fire apparatus maintenance and repair, not to exceed $115,000, with labor rates of $190 per hour in shop and $200 per hour for field and after-hours service and parts at 10 percent below list; the report says the department's expenses with the company were $98,402.28 in FY25 and $126,809.05 in FY26. The FY27 Tarrant County Regional Auto Crimes Task Force interlocal agreement, under which the report says Tarrant County reimburses 80 percent of the salary and fringe benefits and 5 percent of the salary for overtime for a Weatherford investigator assigned to the task force, leaving the city responsible for approximately $26,777 and overtime that exceeds $4,799; the task force's seven-county service area includes Parker County. The $2,042,081 total is the Ledger's sum of the six dollar ceilings on the agenda; the task force agreement carries no ceiling on the agenda. Each report says staff recommends approval.
