SUBJECT CONTRIBUTION FROM AMON G. CARTER FOUNDATION FOR FORT WORTH WATER GARDENS
INFORMATION SERVICE PERSONNEL
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Accept a contribution of $47,250.00 from the Amon G. Carter Foundation for the
purpose of funding information service personnel at the Fort Worth Water Gardens,
and
2. Adopt the attached appropriations ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations by $47,250.00 in Special Revenue Fund, and
3. Waive collection of any indirect costs.
DISCUSSION:
The Amon G. Carter Foundation has donated to the Park and Recreation Department
$47,250.00 to fund information service personnel at the Fort Worth Water Gardens. The
purpose is to provide assistance to visitors, to promote enjoyment of the Water Gardens
and to foster a greater appreciation of this unusual municipal asset.
The City has exclusive control of the implementation and management of this service,
including but not limited to the selection, training, responsibilities, supervision,
retention, and dismissal of the personnel involved as well as the information
distributed by them.
The Park and Recreation Department currently has two Water Gardens Information Service
Officers (ISO) on staff. The hours of patrol are 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m The ISO
provide information on Water Gardens features, history and rules, distribution of
brochures, and guided tours on request for the visitors. The main objective of this
program is to enhance the public relations effort of the department by providing
information to all tourists who visit the Water Gardens site. The officers are
equipped with two-way radios and have access to a telephone in the event that emergency
situations occur.
This $47,250.00 contribution is the third and final payment from the Amon G. Carter
Foundation; it will cover the operation until August 1992, when all funds are expected
to be spent. These funds cover direct costs of salaries, benefits, uniforms, supplies
and equipment.
