NUMBEAgreement Between City of Fort Worth13
5/23/78 G-3820 i °r
Worth Independent School District
Background
Cooperation between the Fort Worth Park and Recreation Department and the
Fort Worth Independent School District in the joint acquisition, development,
maintenance and/or sharing of facilities and services has been a matter of
long-standing agreement between the two public agencies. Although most
agreements existed only informally, reciprocity between the two entities dates
back more than fifty years.
Many similarities can be seen in the number, type and use of physical properties
owned and administered by the two agencies such as neighborhood and community
parks and open spaces provided at school sites; buildings (gymnasiums) ; athletic
facilities, including ballfields, football-soccer fields, track and tennis
facilities; and certain program areas such as nature interpretation. Some
facilities are owned and operated separately by one entity with use being
extended to the other at reduced rates or for free. These facilities include
baseball fields, golf courses, McLeland Tennis Center, Zoo, Log Cabin Village,
and Fort Worth Nature Center and Wildlife Refuge which the City shares with the
schools. School-owned tracks, undeveloped sites, gyms, and stadiums are shared
with Parks and Recreation. The two agencies have cooperated in purcnasing
adjacent land, land transfers, and development projects.
Major bond programs recently have been passed by both entities. Many facilities
proposed in the respective programs are similar in terms of type of facility and
citizens to be served. Further, peak use of some facilities on a daily and
seasonal basis occurs at different times. Costs of land, construction, operation
and maintenance of park and recreational facilities are rising at a rapid rate.
Continuing inflation will adversely affect the number and quality of projects
accomplished by each agency. To make better use of bond monies and tax dollars,
reduce unnecessary duplication of facilities, and provide more and better
facilities for citizens, it is advantageous to each agency to support a cooper-
ative development, use and maintenance program for certain facilities. To meer
legal requirements, each agency will retain appropriate independence and integ-
rity in all joint projects.
Proposed Program
Joint school and park staff meetings have been held to discuss several possible
cooperative projects, including extensive development of tennis facilities,
athletic fields and playgrounds. To insure mutual understanding of responsibi-
lity, a detailed land use, development and maintenance agreement has been
prepared for each proposed project.
