COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 4/26/2005 - Ordinance #16400-04-2005 & Ordinance#16401-

DATE: Tuesday, April 26, 2005
LOG NAME: 35COMINUPROSEN REFERENCE NO.: C-20680
SUBJECT:
Adopt Appropriation Ordinances, Accept a Donation from the Safe City Commission and Authorize
the Execution of an Amendment to City Contract 30747 with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater
Fort Worth to Establish a New Comin' Up Site at Rosen Heights Baptist Church
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the supplemental appropriation ordinance increasing appropriation in the General Revenue Fund
by $61,114 and decreasing the unreserved, undesignated fund balance in the General Fund by the same
amount;
2. Authorize the transfer of$61,114 from the General Fund to the Grants Fund from available funds;
3. Accept a donation from the Safe City Commission, not to exceed $10,000, with appreciation from the
Council, to lease transportation for the new Comin' Up site;
4. Adopt the appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Grants Fund
by $71,114 from available funds; and
5. Authorize the City Manager to execute and amend City Secretary Contract 30747 with the Boys and Girls
Clubs of Greater Fort Worth to add an additional Comin' Up site at Rosen Heights Baptist Church.
DISCUSSION:
During a monthly Crime Update presentation given by Police Chief Mendoza on February 8, 2005, a map
was shown that depicted where gang members lived and the location of Comin' Up sites. Police Chief
Mendoza noted that there was a growing population of gang members on the north side of the city that
would not use the closest Comin' Up center in Diamond Hill due to territorial issues with other gangs.
On April 9, 2005, a shooting occurred between gang members in two different cars. As a result of the
gunfire a 13 year old occupant of one vehicle was struck by a bullet and later died. The victim had relatives
who are known members in one gang and the occupants of the other vehicle were part of what had become
a rival gang. During a quarterly meeting of the Neighborhood Policing District Steering Committee, a group
co-chaired by the Mayor and the United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas, Chief Mendoza
gave background information on this shooting to the group and brought representatives from the Comin' Up
program. It was mentioned that a new facility was needed, possibly at the North Tri-Ethnic Center, to serve
the gang that is on the west part of the northside. The group discussed adding a new site on an rush basis
and Joe Cordova of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Fort Worth said the site could be up and running in
3-4 weeks.

During the March Crime Update the need for the site was mentioned and a follow-up presentation was
given, by Council request, at the April 19th Pre-Council meeting. Following discussions with gang members
on the north side the use of the North Tri-Ethnic Community Center was ruled out due to territorial issues
and an alternative site, Rosen Heights Baptist Church, was located. Leaders of the church indicated they
are amenable to a 3-year lease. To accelerate the opening of the center some equipment and supplies
normally associated with a Comin' Up site will be acquired at a later date if continuation funding is
available. Although the site is within walking distance for many of the gang members in the neighborhood
the Safe City Commission has generously offered to provide up to $10,000 for lease and operation of a van
to be used to transport participants to and from the Center and on other outings. The Center will have a
Program Coordinator, two Outreach Specialists and contracted services and training when it opens.
The Police Department, Comin' Up staff and Parks and Community Services Department believe that
opening this center before the summer months will alleviate any potential violent scenarios between the
various gangs on the northside.
The Rosen Heights Baptist Church is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the
appropriation ordinances, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, in the
Grants Fund. The unreserved, undesignated General Fund fund balance will be $37,815,565 after the
transfer.
