The roundabout at Westport Parkway and Alta Vista Road is phase one of a two phase improvement to Westport Parkway. The second phase is a 2018 Bond funded project to extend Westport Parkway to Keller Haslet Road, scheduled for construction in 2021. The construction of the roundabout at Westport Parkway and Alta Vista was intended to be funded with Impact Fees approved by M&C C-27759 (June 7, 2016), however with the adoption of the 2017 Transportation Impact Fee Study (M&C G-19207) this intersection is no longer eligible for impact fee funding. The 2018 Bond project at Westport is adjacent to the Westport Parkway Project and does include scope eligible for impact fee funding which would free 2018 Bond funds that could be used to fund the construction of the roundabout at Westport Parkway and Alta Vista. This would allow for the completion of the full scope of intended work for both projects and optimize the use of available funding. Funds for this project are included in the 2014 Bond Program, as well as the 2018 Bond Program. Available resources within the General Fund will be used to provide interim financing until debt is issued. Once debt associated with the project is sold, bond proceeds will reimburse the General Fund in accordance with the statement expressing Official Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part of the ordinance canvassing the bond election (Ordinance No. 23209-05-2018).
