DISCUSSION•
The 1986 Capital Improvement Program included funds for the.improvement of
West Maddox, Avenue from College Avenue to Hemphill Street; however, the
curbs and gutters from Lipscomb Street to Hemphill Street are in excellent
condition, and this portion of the project can be maintained within City
Standards with an HMAC overlay. The HMAC overlay will be scheduled after
the reconstruction from College Avenue to Lipscomb Street is complete. The
,street isi in •the -Mid-Southside Target Area and has previously been
constructed to City standards. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
funds will provide a portion of the construction cost. One- and two-family
residences are,not assessed.
West Maddox Avenue will be constructed with standard concrete pavement.
Standard concrete driveways and sidewalks will be built where shown on the
plans.
On March 17, 1992 (M&C G-9565), the City Council established April 14,
1992, as the date of the benefit hearing. Notice was given in accord with
Article 1105b, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes.
An independent appraiser has provided a report that documents the
enhancement to property values which results from the improvements. Based
on standard City policy, the City. Engineer's estimate, and the advice of
the independent appraiser, the division of estimated construction cost is:
Property owners' share of cost $ 9,440.00 ( 12%)
City's share of cost $ 68,110.00 ( 88%)
Total cost $ 77,550.00 (100%)

Council consideration.

settlement of W.K.C., Manager, as follows:
Inc.
SUBJECT: SETTLEMENT OF W.K.C., INC., PLAINTIFF V. ZONING BOARD OF
ADJUSTMENT, ET AL, DEFENDANTS
RECOMMENDATION•
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Approve the- settlement oU :Cause No.^141-140307-92•,filed by W.K.C.,
Inc., against the Zoning Board of Adjustment and the City of Fort
Worth, and
2. Authorize the City Manager to sign the compromise settlement
agreement.
DISCUSSION•
On or about February 13, 1991, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 10788
(the "Ordinance") which utilizes distance regulations to prevent the
adverse secondary effects associated with adult cabarets. These
regulations prohibit the location of an adult cabaret within 1,000 feet of
a school, church, public park, another adult cabaret or sexually oriented
business or residentially zoned property.
W.R.C., Inc. operates a restaurant, bar and adult cabaret at 7101 Calmont.
The -establishment is within 1,000 feet of residentially zoned property
which is being used as a commercially operated golf course, maintenance
facility and other commercial and/or industrial uses.
A.K.C., Inc., has filed suit in the 141st District Court contending that
application of the Ordinance to its operations at 7101 Calmont is
unconstitutional as applied, arbitrary,`capricious and unreasonable. The
main reason for this contention is that there are no residential uses
within 11000 -feet and -the uses that are present are not the type sought to
be protected under the Ordinance. Thus, the. -purpose of the Ordinance is
not being accomplished. •:Bona ifide disputes exist between the parties
concerning constitutionality of the Ordinance as applied to W.R.C., Inc.'s
operations.:
In order to compromise disputed claims and doubtful rights and to avoid the
expense and disruption of litigation, it is proposed that W.K.C., Inc., the
Zoning,Board.• of Adjustment and the City of Fort Worth compromise and settle
all claims and causes of action which W.K.C.,•Inc., may have arising out of
application of the Ordinance to W.K.C., Inc.'s operation of an adult

SUBJECT: CONTRACT WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS TO CONDUCT
SPECIALIZED BIOTOXICITY TESTING IN ACCORDANCE WITH A U.S.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY GRANT
RECOMMENDATION•
It is recommended that City Council authorise the City Manager to enter
into a 12 -month contract with the University of North Texas to conduct
specialized biotoxicity testing, in accordance with a U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency Grant, not to exceed $33,250.
DISCUSSION•
On September 3, 1991 (M&C C-13044), City Council authorized the City
Manager to execute the USEPA 104(b)(3) Grant entitled "Biotoxicity Testing:
Screening Methods for Monitoring Wet and Dry Weather Discharges from
Municipal Storm Drainage Systems". The funding provides a total of
$136,480 for a contract period of September 1991 through September 1993.
The purpose of the Grant is to evaluate cost and environmentally effective
methods which cities can use to monitor pollutants in their storm drain
systems.
Minutes of City Council U-3 Page 26
27
Tuesday, April 14, 1992
M&C C-13322 cont. The current IISEPA Storm Water Regulations require cities to monitor their
storm drain systems for pollutant discharges, at a potential cost of $25.00
to $113.00 per sample, depending on which testing procedures are used.
Fort Worth has been a national leader in the use of cost effective
techniques and is using these grant funds to prepare a "how to" guide for
IISEPA, which, in turn, can be used to assist Fort Worth, other cities and
outside agencies in implementing cost effective monitoring programs.
A portion of the grant funds must be used to conduct USEPA's currently
approved biotoxicity testing methods (acute toxicity tests) which cost
approximately $475.00 per test. Comparisons to locally used/cost effective
methods will be prepared and included in the "how to" guide.
Fort Worth staff propose that a contract with the nationally recognized
biotoxicity testing program at the University of North Texas Institute of
Applied Sciences would provide the best scientific practices available to
conduct the required EPA approved testing. The University of North Texas
would conduct acute toxicity, chronic toxicity and some highly specialized
toxicity identification evaluation fractionations.
