re BH -0090
Works, appeared before the City Council and advised the City Council that the
independent appraisal performed by Mr. Robert Martin substantiates that, as a result of
the proposed construction, each case of the abutting property is specially benefitted
in enhanced value in excess of the amount assessed for the improvement; that the
independent appraisal report has been submitted to the City Council; that Mr. Robert
Martin is available for questioning; and called attention of the City Council to Mayor
and Council Communication No. BH -0090, as follows:
SUBJECT: BENEFIT HEARING FOR THE ASSESSMENT PAVING OF WHEATON DRIVE FROM
WALTON AVENUE TO WEDGMONT CIRCLE NORTH (PROJECT NO. 67-040275)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt an ordinance that:
1. Closes the benefit hearing, and
2. Levies the assessments as proposed, and
3. Acknowledges that in each case the abutting property is specially
benefitted in enhanced value in excess of the amount assessed for the
improvement of Wheaton Drive from Walton Avenue to Wedgmont Circle
North.
DISCUSSION:
Wheaton Drive from Walton Avenue ,to Wedgmont Circle North was added to the
1986 Capital Improvement Program using District 6 Undesignated Funds. The
street is not located in a target area. and has previously been constructed
to City standards. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds will not
provide a portion of the construction cost. One- and two-family residences
are not assessed.
Wheaton Drive will be constructed as a standard concrete street with
standard driveways and sidewalks.
On March 24, 1992 (M&C G-9575), the City Council established April 21,
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 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 $ 18,503.10 ( 11%)
City's share of cost $149,530.90 ( 89%)
Total cost $168,034.00 (100%)
There are no unusual situations on this project that require special City
Council consideration.
The project is in DISTRICT 6.

revail623 wage rates
There was presented Mayor and Council Communication No. G-9623 from the City
Manager stating that the current prevailing wage rates for building construction trades
were adopted by the City Council March 26, 1991; that state law and the City Charter
require the City Council to determine and to pay a general prevailing wage rate for
construction of public works projects; maintenance work is excluded; that the laws
require the City to ascertain the prevailing wage rate for each craft or type of worker
or mechanic needed to execute public works projects and mandates contractors and
subcontractors to pay at least these wages; that the prevailing rates being recommended
are based on the City's current salary schedule for comparable City jobs plus the cash
equivalent for fringe benefits; that the cost of the group health insurance is $1.05
per hour and the other benefits are estimated to be 18.86 percent of the base rate; and
recommending that the City Council adopt the..revised prevailing wage rates for
prospective use on City -funded building projects effective April 1, 1992; provided the
rates shall not be in effect for public works projects that are being advertised, nor
for projects that have been advertised and bids received, nor for projects that have
been awarded prior to the date of adoption. On motion of Council Member Chappell,
seconded by Council Member McCray, the recommendation was adopted. (The 1992 Building
and Construction Trades -Standard Wage Rates and Highway Construction Prevailing Wage
Rates for 1992 are incorporated into the City Council preceding file for the meeting of

SUBJECT: SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCY AMENDMENT FOR THE HUMAN RELATIONS
COMMISSION
RECOMMENDATION•
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached ordinance
amending the Fair Housing. Division of the Human Relations Chapter of the
City Code to provide rights, procedures and remedies to victims of housing
discrimination which are substantially equivalent to those provided under
federal and state fair housing laws.
DISCUSSION•
In April 1988, the federal government passed the Fair Housing Amendments
Act which expanded protected categories to include familial status and
disability, expanded the administrative procedures for processing housing
complaints, and enlarged the remedies available to charging parties. A
part of the Fair Housing Amendments Act required agencies like the Fort
Minutes of City Council U-3 Page 45
W
Tuesday, April 21, 1992
Worth Human Relations Commission (the Commission), which had previously
M&C G-9624 cont. been certified as substantially equivalent, to be recertified in order to
continue their contractual arrangement with the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD).
In order for the Commission to maintain its equivalency status, HUD
procedures required that: the local ordinance contain familial status and
disability as protected categories, have administrative procedures for
complaints to select from, and have the ability to impose penalties up to
$50,000 per occurrence for violations. Although the City passed an
amendment to the Fair Housing Ordinance in December 1990 and subsequently
added optional administrative procedures, the penalties could not be
imposed until there was a change in state law. In the summer of 1991,
there were changes in state law which permitted local municipalities to
utilize state law enforcement procedures and remedies, and enforce the
local fair housing laws in the state courts, either independently, or
through contractual arrangements with the Texas Commission on Human Rights.
The proposed ordinance, which will be submitted to HUD upon approval by the
City Council, addresses the required areas outlined in the 1988 Fair
Housing Amendments Act and should insure that the Fort Worth Human
Relations Commission will be recertified as a substantially equivalent
agency. This will have the effect of retaining HRC's eligibility for HUD
funding (current FY $56,000) for its Fair Housing work, and prevent the
possibility of the City of Fort Worth from being disqualified as a HUD
Community Development Block Grant recipient (current FY ca. $5.1 million).
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
No immediate impact on the General Fund is anticipated. Long-term impact
is contingent on many factors such as number of complaints, HUD funding
criteria, choice of remedies, etc. and is therefore impossible to predict.
As indicated above, not passing the amendment will almost certainly result
in the loss of HUD grant funding for the Commission and jeopardize the
City's CDBG Funding.

DISCUSSION•
On April 9, .1992, the City of Fort Worth sued the City of Dallas in the
348th District Court of Tarrant County in Cause No. 348-1414-30-92. The
suit seeks a declaratory judgment that certain proposals by the City of
Dallas to change the Wright Amendment violate the 1968 contract and
agreement between Fort Worth and Dallas and the 1968 DFW Airport Concurrent
Bond Ordinance.
Because this matter is of extraordinary importance, it is the opinion of
the City Attorney that outside legal counsel, with knowledge and expertise
in matters involving complex civil litigation, be retained to assist the
City Attorney in representing the City in this case and to advise the City
on related matters. David Reltner and the firm of Haynes and Boone are
well recognized for their knowledge and expertise in such matters. The
firm has agreed to assist the City - Attorney in this matter and to consult
with the City. The firm's governmental rate is $150 per hour.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Fiscal Services certifies that, upon approval of
Recommendation 3, sufficient funds for this expenditure will be available
in the current operating budget of the General Fund.

DISCUSSION•. .
In January 1992 a Request for Proposal (RFP) was advertised and also mailed
to six prospective vendors. Proposals were receiveU from four vendors.
The purpose of the RFP was to procure collection services on delinquent
citations and outstanding warrants for -the Municipal Court. The evaluation
team consisted of seven city staff members from various backgrounds and
expertise.., The -proposals were evaluated ,by Ahe team and the two highest
ranking proposers were interviewed. CAG was. selected because of their
nearby location and the ability and willingness to tailor their services to
the City's specific needs. CAG has similar• -contracts with six other
municipalities in the Fort Korth area. This should enhance the
..contractor's ability to locate and process claims.. The proposed 25% fee is
applied to funds collected less court costs, state fees and other costs.
This, service for Municipal Court has not been previously contracted.
-Therefore, the department is unable to estimate•the amount of revenues to
the City or how the vendor's charge of -25% of actual covered funds will
impact collected revenues.
M&C C-13263 was withdrawn from the 3-3-92 City Council agenda in order to
address issues of Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation.
CAG has submitted a proposal that 35% of its contract will go to qualified
DBE firms (see attached letter). The Municipal- Courts Advisory Committee
reviewed CAG's proposal, including the DBE component,• and at its meeting of
.3-24-92 voted to recommend approval of the contract by the City Council.

M&C C-13331 cont. In 1989, the City Councils of Fort Worth and Dallas, acting upon the recommendation of the Railtran Policy
Committee, authorised their City Managers to enter into a contract with the law firm of McAuliffe, Kelly,
Raffaelli and Siemans (KKRS) to provide legal services in the intergovernmental relation field for the
RAILTRAN System. (See K&C C-11542, adopted 3-28-89.) The contract was for a fixed monthly retainer fee of
$10,000 plus reasonable and necessary expenses, not to exceed a total compensation under the agreement of
$200,000.
The term of the contract commenced on Kay 10, 1989, and the contract was cancelable on thirty days written
notice by either party. However, the contract's termination date was not as clearly specified. Other
provisions in the contract, however, could be read as terminating the contract at the end of the term of the
101st Congress. Certain legal services were provided by KKRS subsequent to the end of the 101st Congress
but before the approval by the City Councils of a new agreement with KKRS (City Secretary Contract
No. 18855). These services were performed during the months of January, February, Karch and April of 1991
and totaled $31,959.25.
Since these services were charged to Contract No. 17114, it is necessary to amend the contract in order to
make clear that it covers services through April 30, 1991. Total expenditures under said contract do not
exceed the previously authorized maximum compensation.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
This Council action does not require the expenditure of City funds.

Partnership Act Title III Economic Dislocation and Worker Adjustment Assistance Act Program Plan for 1991, for the contract
period July 1, 1991, to June 30, 1992; that the City Manager was authorised to execute an amendment to the original contract
