agreement be entered between the parties pertaining to the “transport” of natural gas over CGW
pipelines to FTC; and
WHEREAS, the parties have continued an arrangement, practice or custom regarding the supply
of natural gas over the CGW natural gas infrastructure since 2011, that is, the City has continued
to provided natural gas “transportation” service to FTC, and FTC has continued to pay for said
“transportation” of natural gas, in the absence of an updated, amended or new contract /
interlocal agreement; and
WHEREAS, the City (CGW) and FTC have reached agreement on the terms and conditions
pertaining to the “transportation” of natural gas over CGW natural gas pipeline infrastructure, to
FTC, and now desire to memorialize said agreement through approval / adoption and execution
of a new contract / interlocal agreement, attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit A,
pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated Section 12-9-108 pertaining to the adoption of interlocal
agreements among governmental entities, and pursuant to all applicable federal, state and local
laws, to include ordinances and resolutions, and regulations.
WHEREAS, all parties agree that revisions to the new interlocal agreement, which was
approved upon the adoption of RESOLUTION 44-2018-19 by the Clarksville City Council on
February 7, 2018, are necessary.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CLARKSVILLE, TENNESSEE:
That RESOLUTION 44-2018-19, adopted by the Clarksville City Council on February 7, 2019,
is hereby repealed.
