The resolution, as adopted,
is as follows:
RESOLUTION NO. 1421
WHEREAS, the federal, state, and local governments all
share in the responsibility of building and maintaining the
nation's physical and institutional infrastructure and in providing
essential services needed to promote the general welfare, and
WHEREAS, the federal government has steadily reduced its
responsibility to states and units of local government, and
WHEREAS, shifting the tax burden from the national level
to state and local government is an illusory savings for taxpayers
and provides no net tax relief, and
WHEREAS, financing state and local government projects
through the issuance of bonds the interest on which is not taxed
by the federal government is critical to allow states and local
governments to exercise the responsibilities entrusted to and
expected of them, and
WHEREAS, in recent years, the U.S. Congress has both
limited the use of tax-exempt bonds by states and local
governments, and made municipal bonds less attractive to
significant groups of purchasers, thereby driving up the cost of
financing public service projects, and
WHEREAS, in 1988 the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a
100 -year-old precedent ruling for the first time that the

TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1989
Resolution No. 1421 Constitution does not prohibit the federal government from taxing
(Continued) 11 the interest on state and local government bonds, and
WHEREAS, the Supreme Court decision places in jeopardy
the use of tax-exempt bonds by the more than 85,000 units of state
and local government, as Congress seeks new sources of revenue to
reduce the federal deficit, and
WHEREAS, state and local borrowing costs will increase by
an estimated 20 to 30 percent if the interest on tax-exempt bonds
is subject to federal income tax, and this added burden will be
reflected in reductions in public services or by increased state
and local taxes, and
WHEREAS, further restrictions on the use of tax-exempt
bonds will seriously impair the ability of state and local
governments to finance essential services and facilities, including
schools, roads, water, sewer, gas, electricity, transportation and
other basic functions, to the detriment of all citizens,
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: that the City Council of
the City of Fort Worth calls upon Congress and the President to
recognize that the state and local burden of maintaining and
expanding the national infrastructure and providing citizens with
needed basic governmental services cannot be met without tax-exempt
bonds, and to resist all further efforts to reduce the use of such
bonds to finance governmental projects.

DISCUSSION!
The storm of this May has left Fort Worth, its park system and
public properties in a critical unsafe position. In addition to
great numbers of trees and tree limbs blown down on the ground, a
growing number of trees are being identified as unsafe to remain in
their present condition. Regular City crews cannot handle this
without outside assistance. The work is necessary to reserve the
safety of our citizens due to unforseen damage to public property.
Support services from private forestry contractors will be
necessary in removing downed trees, taking down damaged trees,
chipping and hauling brush from parks, golf courses, the Botanic
Garden and the Zoo. When these contract crews work in the above

DISCUSSION!
The storm of this May has left Fort Worth, its park system and
public properties in a critical unsafe position. In addition to
great numbers of trees and tree limbs blown down on the ground, a
growing number of trees are being identified as unsafe to remain in
their present condition. Regular City crews cannot handle this
without outside assistance. The work is necessary to reserve the
safety of our citizens due to unforseen damage to public property.
Support services from private forestry contractors will be
necessary in removing downed trees, taking down damaged trees,
chipping and hauling brush from parks, golf courses, the Botanic
Garden and the Zoo. When these contract crews work in the above

(Continued)
The specifications required genuine original equipment manufacturer
replacement parts.
DI USSTON!
Bids were requested on the basis of dealer's list price less a
discount. These parts are available only through manufacturer's
representative/distributors. The award of a one-year purchase
agreement for purchase of these repair parts on an "as needed"
basis reduces the required volume of parts inventory and reduces
equipment downtime while still allowing a volume price reduction by
estimating annual requirements.
Vendor based prices on estimated quantities. However, no guarantee
has been made that a specific quantity of goods or services will be
purchased.
The recommended vendor did comply with the Minority Business
Enterprise Policy.

It is recommended that the City Council authorize:
1. Cancellation of purchase award with Chemical & Turf Specialty
Company (M&C P-3292, March 7, 1989) for 590 gallons of MSMA
selective herbicide at $11.48 per gallon for a total amount of
$6,773.20; and

the third low bidder, Terra International, on its bid meeting
City specifications, of $12.45 per gallon for a total amount
not to exceed $7,345.50 net, f.o.b. Fort Worth.
DTSMISSTnN-
On March 7, 1989 (M&C P-3292), the City Council authorized the
purchase of 590 gallons of MSMA selective herbicide for the Park
and Recreation Department from the low bidder, Chemical & Turf
Specialty Company. This vendor has notified the City that it
cannot supply the specified herbicide at the previously quoted
price of $11.48 per gallon due to a drastic manufacturer's price
increase of approximately 16% by its supplier, Fermenta Plant
Protection Company. The selling price for this product by Chemical
& Turf Specialty Company is now $13.37 per gallon.
The second low bid of $11.70 per gallon submitted by Mann Ag.
Service is recommended for rejection. This vendor can supply this
product in a 55 gallon drum only instead of the 2-1/2 gallon
container as specified. This container size is unacceptable to the
Park and Recreation Department as it would cause waste in mixing
and difficulty in handling.

COMMENTS ON SPECIFICATIONS:
Vendors were required to furnish a price for parts based on
manufacturer's list price, hourly charge for labor and charge per
trip or service call (if any). Pro Chem offers the lowest parts
price at 20% off manufacturer's list and the lowest hourly rate.
Pro Chem does have a trip charge of $25.00; however, the subject
equipment is small enough that it is usually taken to the vendor
location by City staff. Delco does not have a trip charge, but
since equipment is usually carried to the vendor, Delco charges
would be high. Hotsy Equipment has a trip charge of $28.00, and
with hourly rate of $32.00, Hotsy would also be higher priced.
DISCUSSION:
The Village Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant will use this
agreement to keep six units of Hotsy steam cleaning equipment in
good working order.

COMMENTS ON SPECIFICATIONS: .
Specifications required the vendor to lease, furnish, and maintain
to the City specific interior and tropical plants for use at the
City Hall and Central Library with all maintenance service
performed on a weekly basis.
The overall low bid submitted by Plant -It -Earth (formerly
Forevergreen Plantscapes) is recommended for rejection by the Park
and Recreation Department. The maintenance service as performed by
this firm on a previous purchase agreement was less than
satisfactory to both the Park and Recreation Department and the
Central Library. Additionally, dissatisfaction was expressed by
management relative to the appearance of some plants within City
Hall maintained by this firm.
The Park and Recreation Director and the Superintendent of
Horticulture recommends the current contractor, Evergreen Foliage,
be retained to provide this service for an additional year in City
Hall and at the Central Library.

1. A purchase agreement for the purchase of genuine Asplundh
manufacturer's replacement parts with Asplundh Manufacturing
Division on the low bid of unit prices at manufacturer's

Bid was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on January 26

COMMENTS ON SPECIFICATIONS:
The specifications required genuine original equipment manufacturer
(O.E.M.) replacement parts.
DISCUSSION:
Bids were requested on the basis of dealer's list price less a
discount. These parts are available only through manufacturer's
representatives/distributors. The award of a one-year purchase
agreement for purchase of these repair parts on an "as needed"
basis reduces the required volume of parts inventory and reduces
equipment downtime while still allowing a volume price reduction by
estimating annual requirements.
Vendor based prices on estimated quantities. However, no guarantee
has been made that a specific quantity of goods or services will be
purchased.
FINANCING:
Budgeted funds are sufficient to cover the anticipated expenditure
by each department participating in this agreement. All purchase
orders issued against this agreement will be reviewed by Purchasing
for sufficiency of funds prior to release.

2. This agreement to become effective September 6, 1988 and end

DISCUSSION:
M&C P-2896, dated September 6, 1988, authorized a purchase
agreement to conduct chronic toxicity tests on the Village Creek
Water Treatment Plant outfall 001 as required by the NPDES permit.
The Water Department is required to submit results from the
toxicity tests performed on the Village Creek WWTP effluent to EPA
Enforcement Branch. If a toxicity test demonstrates lethality
during the monthly testing period, the permittee is required to
resample and conduct the toxicity tests for the species showing
lethality for a total of three consecutive toxicity tests during a
forty-five day period. The Village Creek WWTP effluent
demonstrated lethality in April, 1989, and the Water Department is
presently conducting the required retests in May, 1989, resulting
in additional costs.
The retests also require control tests for stream toxicity to
verify the receiving water (West Fork Trinity River) is suitable
for dilution water in the tests. These control tests (five) are an
addition to the tests specified in the purchase agreement.
FINANCING:
Budgeted funds are sufficient to cover the anticipated expenditure
by the department participating in this agreement. All purchase
orders issued against this agreement will be reviewed by Purchasing
for sufficiency of funds prior to release.

SUBJECT: RESIDENT TRAINING CONTRACT WITH ROBERT L. THOMPSON
STRATEGIC HOSPITAL - CARSWELL AIR FORCE BASE
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City of Fort Worth authorize the City
Manager to execute a contract with the Robert L. Thompson Strategic
Hospital, Carswell Air Force Base, Texas.
DIS MISS TON -
The specific purpose of the contract is to provide exposure in
public health to Family Practice Medical Residents undergoing
training at the Robert L. Thompson Strategic Hospital (RLTSH).
Such training is to be provided under the supervision of City of
Fort Worth Department of Public Health staff in department
facilities and in the field.
Monthly rotations in the public health department consisting of no
more than five (5) days clinical exposure per week for each
resident are proposed. It is in the best interest of the U.S. Air
Force and the Family Practice Physician trainees to gain experience
in public health with the department of public health. This
experience is invaluable to the educational preparation of future
family practice physicians in the U.S. Air Force. It is also to
the benefit of the department of public health to make use of the
trainee's clinical experience and performance.
The areas of rotation may include: Sexually Transmitted Disease
Clinic, Tuberculosis Clinic, Maternal/Child Health Clinic, Homeless
Clinic, Environmental Health, and Epidemiology. Other areas may be
considered on a case-by-case basis by the Director of Public
Health.
Liability for the acts or omissions of Air Force Family Practice
Residents or members of their faculty shall be determined in
accordance with the Federal Tort Claims Act. The liability of the
department of public health shall be governed by the pertinent and
applicable laws of the state of Texas.
The terms of this contract will commence with agreement by both
parties and will continue until termination by either party.
FUNDING:
Expenditure of city funds is not a requirement for the execution of
this contract.
It was the consensus of the City Council that the recommendation, as contained in Mayor

It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize a fund transfer in the amount of $132,000 from Sewer
Capital Improvement Fund 84, Project Number 011000-00, Sewer
Interest to Sewer Capital Improvement Fund 84, Project Number
016001-00, 24 MGD Expansion, Phase IIA, Effluent Filter Area
(VCWWTP); and
2. Authorize Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $132,000 to the
contract for construction of the 24 MGD Expansion Phase IIA,
Effluent Filter Area at the Village Creek Wastewater Treatment
Plant, revising the total contract cost to $17,686,233.78.
BACKGROUND:
On September 13, 1988 (M&C C-11189), the City Council authorized
the award of a contract to Martin K. Eby Construction Company, Inc.
for construction of the 24 MGD Expansion Phase IIA, Effluent Filter
Area.
Recent modifications to the Clean Water Act requires the metering
of effluent discharge at wastewater treatment plants. Meters are
required to be functional by September 1, 1990. Bid items for the
meters were not included in the bid documents because the new
requirement was initiated after the Phase IIA design was completed.
Installation of the meter vault and meter, by change order, at this
time would result in a cost saving to the City. The saving would
result from utilizing the excavation for the new 120 -inch pipeline
and would not cause a plant shutdown for future installation.
Further savings would occur from the lack of pipe support costs
resulting in a savings of approximately $70,000 as compared to the
cost of excavation around and support of an existing 120 -inch
pipeline which would be required should the construction of the
meter vaults be postponed until after the new pipeline is
installed.
It is proposed to delete approximately 250 feet of the proposed
Miles Road and two (2) street lights in this contract due to future
work which would require excavation for the next metering vault.
PROJECT NO.: 84-016001-00
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER:
The contractor, Martin K. Eby Construction Company, Inc., will
perform this additional work for $132,000.
The proposed changes are as follows:
1. Install Meter Vault and Meter
@ Lump Sum $152,100.00
2. Delete a portion of a proposed
street and two (2) street lights
@ Lump Sum ($ 20,100.00)
Total Change Order $132,000.00
The net effect of the proposed change order is as follows:
Original Contract Cost $17,565,920.00
Change Order No. 1 ($ 11,686.22)
Proposed Change Order No.2 $ 132,000.00
Revised Contract Cost $17,686.233.78
The construction manager, Freese and Nichols, Inc. and the staff
engineer of the Water Department have reviewed the proposed charges
and found them reasonable for similar work.
FINANCING:
Sufficient funds are available to transfer from Sewer Capital
Improvement Fund 84, Project Number 011000-00, Sewer Interest (cash

M&C No. C-11664 SUBJECT: INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT WITH THE NORTH TEXAS COMMISSION FOR
(Continued) A FEASIBILITY STUDY OF A CLASS I HORSE RACING TRACK
LOCATED IN THE DALLAS/FORT WORTH METROPLEX REGION
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager
to enter into an agreement with the North Texas Commission
providing for the City of Fort Worth to contribute $15,000 to the
Horse Racing Track Feasibility Study.
BACKGROUND:
In November, 1987, voters approved a statewide referendum which
provided for legalized pari-mutuel wagering under the Texas Racing
Act (Article 179e.) on a county -by -county local option basis.
On the same day, voters in Tarrant County supported pari-mutuel
wagering for Tarrant County.
In 1988, the Board of the North Texas Commission formed the Horse
Industry Committee to study the economic development impact of the
horse industry on the North Texas Region. The Committee selected
the consultants, Coopers and Lybrand, to perform an economic
feasibility analysis of a Class I horse racing track located within
the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex region.
The budgeted cost for this study is $95,000. The City of Fort
Worth has been asked to contribute $15,000 to the study. Other
participants include Dallas, Irving, Grapevine, D/FW Airport and
the North Texas Commission.
FINANCING:
Sufficient funds are available in Non -Departmental Fund 01, Account
No. 90-11-00, Economic Development. This expenditure will be made
from Index Code 330423.
Adoption of M&6 On motion of Council Member Gilley, seconded by Council Member Zapata, the

BACKGROUND:
On May 11, 1982 (M&C C-6292), the City Council authorized a
contract with the firm of Freese -Nichols, Inc. for the engineering
design and limited construction supervision of the expansion of the
Southeast Sanitary Landfill. That contract has been amended
numerous times in order to provide the additional services required
to comply with changing state and federal regulations. The public
hearing phase for the landfill expansion was protracted due to the
opposition of public entities, corporate bodies, and private
citizens. Nevertheless, a permit was granted by the Texas
Department of Health on November 22, 1988 with .numerous
stipulations regarding the construction and operation of the site.
Minutes of City Council M-3 Page 28
TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1989
M&C No. C-11665 Those -stipulations in the permit require a higher level of

On motion of Council Member Gilley, seconded by Council Member Murrin, the
recommendations, as contained in Mayor and Council Communication No. C-11665, were
adopted.
There was presented Mayor and Council Communication No. C-11666 from the City
Manager, as follows:
SUBJECT: AGREEMENT WITH BISCAYNE PROPERTIES, INC. FOR MAINTENANCE
AND OPERATION OF A WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITIES/SPINKS
AIRPORT
RECOMMENDATION:
1. City Council authorize the City Manager to enter into an
agreement for the maintenance and operation of a wastewater
collection and treatment system at Fort Worth Spinks Airport;
and
2. City Council authorize the expenditure of funds not to exceed
$4,000 for refurbishment, repair and clean-up of the
collection and treatment facility.
DISCUSSION:..
On May 31, 1983 (M&C L-7698), the City purchased approximately 45
acres from Marshalsea, Inc., for .creation and construction of an
airport in south Fort Worth. In addition to the purchase price of
$1,318,000, Marshalsea agreed that the existing runway serving the
then existing Oak Grove Airport would be closed to air traffic when
construction of the new airport was complete. Marshalsea agreed to
lease the 45 acres with buildings from the City during the
construction phase of the new airport for $6,000 per month.
Under the lease agreement, utilities including water, sewer and
electrical services were to be the responsibility of Marshalsea.
This agreement appeared to work quite well for all parties
concerned. However, in early 1985, monthly rental payments to the
Aviation Department ceased. The City property began to lose
tenants and Marshalsea subleased the area to a third party. By the
end of the lease period, the Aviation Department was owed over
$150,000 and Marshalsea, Inc., filed bankruptcy.
Immediate action was initiated by the Aviation Department and a new
F.B.O. was found for the eastside facility of the then complete
Fort Worth Spinks Airport. Utility problems began to surface soon
after the new F.B.O. took over. The water well located on private

M&C No. C-11666 property owned by Q Company and providing service to not only that
(Continued) portion of Oak Grove purchased by the City but also the remaining
area .of the old airport (approximately 145 acres) broke down.
Subsequently, Council authorized an expenditure $12,000 for repair
of the well and the execution of a lease (at 1.00 per year) for the
well site and all water facilities.
Presently, we are now faced with a situation similar to that of the
water well. The wastewater collection and treatment system is
located on vacant land owned by Biscayne Properties, Inc. This
facility serves as the treatment plant for all the improved
properties located on the City -owned property as well as Q Company
Property and the remainder of Marshalsea Property (aka Spinks
Industries, Inc.).
Apparently Biscayne Properties believed the maintenance of the
plant was being performed by the other property owners. This was
not true .and the plant presently is inoperable and in need of
refurbishment and cleaning to allow operations and keep the permit
as issued by the State of Texas Water Commission intact.
The City presently is faced with three alternatives: 1) Extend
City sanitary sewer mains from the west side of the airport to the
east side at an estimated cost of $800,000; 2) Install a septic
system for the tenants located on the City property at an estimated
cost of $9,500; and 3) Repair and refurbish the existing facility
at a cost not .to exceed $4,000. Alternative 1) is too expensive
and Alternative 2) is a temporary fix which would last
approximately 3 years. Alternative 3) would be in the City's best
interest as the plant is capable of providing many years of
services at a minimum maintenance cost of approximately $200.00 per
month. The operation of this plant would provide the time
necessary for normal development to occur along the east side which
would necessitate that water and sewer mains be extended at
developer's expense.
The maintenance fee of $200.00 for monthly maintenance and
chemicals would be borne by the City's fixed base operator
servicing the east side property.

DISCUSSION:
It has been considerable time since a job analysis and needs
assessment has been completed for the first line supervisor
position of police sergeant. Because of decentralization and
advancements in technology there have been increasing demands on
Minutes of City Council M-3 Page 30

TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1989
M&C No. C-11667 this position that make training a necessity if the supervisors are
(Continued) to keep pace with their environment. Through discussions with
supervisors and a review of operations it was learned that the
standard catalogue type supervisory courses would no longer meet
the needs of the Police Department.
Therefore, the Police Training Division staff designed a proposal
which would divide the department's 106 sergeants into four groups.
Each of these groups would meet for a period of no more than three
days. Discussions would take place concerning barriers to job
performance and agreement would be reached as to effective
strategies which would overcome them. Additionally, agreement
would be reached concerning specific skills necessary to carry out
the duties of police sergeant. At the conclusion of each workshop
a spokesperson would be selected by the group and assigned to
police training. Thus, four individuals would be assigned to the
staff to design an effective training program based upon the needs
as identified by all participants as well as management. Once the
curriculum is developed it will be provided to all police sergeants.
Because of limited internal resources an outside facilitator was
deemed necessary to the success of the program.
Several firms and individuals were contacted regarding their
willingness to conduct the workshops as designed by the Training
Division. They either disagreed with the scope of the work to be
performed of their prices were prohibitive.
During this time, Richard Ayres, formerly of the Management
Sciences Unit of the F.B.I. National Academy in Quantico, Virginia,
retired and went into private consultation work with Murphy and
Associates, Inc. in Fairfax, Virginia. Mr. Ayres is well known to
the Police Department having developed and instructed senior staff
in a three day Executive Development School in Fort Worth in 1987.
This school received some of the highest ratings ever given a
program of its type by departmental personnel. Mr. Ayres was
contacted and advised the department that he had utilized the
proposed training concept suggested by the Training Division on
numerous occasion and that it was an acceptable approach to the
development of an overall training program.
Mr. Ayres submitted a proposal to conduct four workshops and a
follow-up session for group leaders for a total fee of $10,346
which includes meals, lodging and transportation. On May 4, 1989,
the Fort Worth Police Department submitted a request to the Fort
Worth Police Officers' Awards Foundation to fund these workshops.
The board at that time unanimously voted to approve funding in the
amount of $5,000 if the city would provide the remaining $5,346.
The Police Department's training registration cost per participant
equates to approximately $50, an amount which is considered very
reasonable when compared with other programs of this type. The
Chief of Police considers this series of workshops to be one of the
highest priority training programs for this year and believes that
Mr. Ayres' participation is-vital,to the success of the program.

DISCUSSION:
Proposition No. 1 of the Capital Improvement Program approved by
the voters on March 22, 1986, included the reconstruction of Summit
Avenue from Vickery Boulevard to Pennsylvania Avenue. This section
of Summit Avenue has been included in the proposed realignment of
I-30 and, is scheduled to be reconstructed by the SDHPT. Since this
part of Summit no longer needs to be provided for, staff recommends
the reconstruction of the section of Summit Avenue from immediately
north of the proposed I-30 realignment to Lancaster Avenue. The
existing hot mix asphaltic pavement on this section of Summit
Avenue currently requires a high level of maintenance, and existing
drainage facilities are inadequate.
SCOPE OF PROJECT:

reconstruction of Summit Avenue and Rio Grande Street. Included are
approximately 0.3 miles of reinforced concrete roadway of various
widths, with attached curbs. Required storm drain improvements will
also be included in this project. :

Associates, Inc. has agreed to perform the required engineering
design services for improvements to Summit Avenue and Rio Grande
Street for a fee based on established hourly rates. The rates and
total fees have been reviewed by staff, and they compare favorably
to those listed in the manual for Professional Practice for General
Engineering Services published by the Texas Society of Professional
Engineers, 1982 Edition. Any authorized subcontract work will be
charged at the actual cost of the work plus a ten percent (10%)
service charge. The City of Fort Worth will furnish survey data and
soils testing and will prepare necessary right-of-way maps and
field notes for right-of-way and easement requirements.
Everage, Smith, Farrington & Associates, Inc., has complied with
the City's minority business enterprise policy for this proposed
contract.
Everage, Smith, Farrington & Associates, Inc., agrees to complete
the required services in the following phases:
Phase 1 - Submit concept plans, preliminary estimate, and
report within 30 calendar days after authorization

60" RCP will subsequently be deleted from the Heritage
Parkway/Alliance Boulevard project. This will effectively reduce
the overall cost of the project by eliminating the removal of
completed work. The contractor has agreed to install this
additional storm drain pipe at a unit price of $117.00 per lineal
foot, or a total of $23,400.00, and seven (7) additional calendar
