HISTORY OF ANNEXATION
Until 1959, the city limits were described by metes and bounds in
the Charter and amending the City Charter was the method by which
land was annexed. The land requested for disannexation was added
to the City of Fort Worth upon the adoption of a new charter in
1924. Ordinance No. 1034 was adopted on November 4, 1924, calling
a Charter Amendment election for December 11, 1924. Included in
the Charter Amendments were the annexations of the area being
requested for disannexation, the Centennial grounds and adjacent
area, a sewage disposal plant area (East Fort Worth), and parts of
Meadowbrook, the Monticello area, Fostepco Heights, Worth Heights,
Cobb Park, the North Jarvis Heights area, Rivercrest, land between
Hemphill and Jennings, and a municipal golf course (Worth Hills).
This was the same Charter Amendment election which changed the City
of Fort Worth's form of government from a Commission form to the
present-day City Council -City Manager form of government.
"History of Annexation" maps dating back to 1966 on file in the
Office of the City Secretary clearly define the area being
requested for disannexation as an area within the corporate
boundaries of the City of Fort Worth.
Minutes of City Council N-3 Page 427
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1989
&C OCS-51 cont. The petitioners assert they were unaware of the inclusion of this
land within the corporate boundaries of the City of Fort Worth
until 1988 when they received their first tax bill.
TAXES
Tax histories on properties within Fort Worth are retained for no
more than 10 years. There is no evidence that taxes were levied on
properties in the 7800 and 7900 blocks of Eagle Mountain Circle
until 1988. The 1989 taxes and valuations are as follows:

The staff report of the Development Department is attached.
CONCLUSION
As City Secretary of the City of Fort Worth, I certify that a
majority of the registered voters of the 7800 and 7900 Blocks of
Eagle Mountain Circle signed the petition for disannexation and
that all technical aspects of the petition for disannexation of the
7800 and 7900 Blocks of Eagle Mountain Circle are in compliance
with Section 43.141 of the Local Government Code.
As City Secretary, I am not in a position to determine whether or
not the City of Fort Worth has failed or refuses to provide
services to the area described in the petition for disannexation.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1989
The purpose of the requested action was to approve creation of a
M&C G-8352 cont. nonprofit airport facility improvement corporation under
Section 14(b) of Article 46-d. Such a corporation would have the
authority to provide financing for the cost of airport facilities
such as real and personal property, buildings and equipment related
to servicing aircraft or for the accommodation of air travelers,
which would benefit the operation, economic development or revenue
requirements of DFW International Airport. The Board of Directors
of the corporation would be composed of five persons appointed by
the DFW International Airport Board. No agreements, bonds, debts
or obligations of the corporation would ever be deemed to be
obligations of the Cities of Fort Worth or Dallas or a pledge of
their credit.
On September 5, 1989, the Fort Worth City Council granted its
approval as requested by the DFW International Airport Board
(M&C G-8203; Ordinance No. 10382).
On November 29, 1989, the matter was presented to the Dallas City
Council. The Dallas City Council granted its approval as requested
by the DFW International Airport Board (Ordinance No. 20517).
Before granting such approval, however, the Dallas City Council
required the following changes to be made in the Articles of
Incorporation:
1. The corporation must obtain approval of the DFW International
Airport Board and the City Councils of Fort Worth and Dallas
prior to the sale and delivery of any bonds, notes or other
form of debt instrument, or the execution of any loan, lease,
trust or other agreement.
2. The Articles of Incorporation may be amended in only two ways:
(a) Amendments can be proposed by the DFW International
Airport Board and approved by the Councils of the two
cities; or
(b) The City Councils of the two cities may institute
amendments by directing the Board of Directors to amend
the articles in accordance with procedures in the
Non -Profit Corporation Act.
These changes were requested to insure that the cities would have
adequate control over the corporation. The City Attorney has
reviewed the changes and finds them to be satisfactory.
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the two attached
ordinances which will approve the Articles of Incorporation as
revised by the City of Dallas.
It was the consensus of the City Council that the recommendations, as contained in
Mayor and Council Communication No. G-8352, be adopted. (See subsequent withdrawal
following executive session.)

Where City forces are used to construct extensions, the charge per

under the "proposed extension charge." Where connections are made
to existing mains, the front foot charge is calculated as one-half
of the extension charge. On this basis, the Community Facilities
Policy should be amended to provide water and sewer extension
charges for facilities constructed by City forces as stated above.
The City's participation, approximately 20 percent, is in the added
costs for pipe sizes larger than eight inches. These added costs
are not included in the above computation.

s urance EXCESS WORKERS' COMPENSATION INSURANCE FOR 1990 (BIDDING
AGENCY: ALEXANDER AND ALEXANDER OF TEXAS, INC.)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Approve purchase of excess workers' compensation insurance for
1990 from Midwest Employers Casualty Company (non -rated
company by A. M. Best) through bids submitted by Alexander and
Alexander of Texas, Inc. Insurance to be purchased will
include single incident excess coverage with City retention of
$350,000 and insurance coverage to no maximum limit per
incident and employer's liability insurance with $1,000,000
per occurrence. Estimated and minimum premium deposit for
this coverage is in the amount of $107,480; and
2. Approve purchase of excess insurance for aircraft related
injuries from Midwest Employers Casualty Company since the
insurance listed above does not provide coverage for aircraft
related injuries. This insurance will require City retention
of $250,000 per incident and provide insurance coverage of up
to $5,000,000 ($1 million maximum per person) per incident.
The premium for this coverage is $14,525.
DISCUSSION:
As part of the City's Workers' Compensation Self -Insurance Program,
excess insurance has been purchased to protect the City against
catastrophic losses as well as to provide employer's liability
insurance against possible lawsuit for damages outside the
protection of workers' compensation laws. The current insurance
policy is with Midwest Employers Casualty Company and is due to
expire January 1, 1990. This policy provides for single incident
coverage to a statutory limit beyond the City's $250,000 per
incident retention for workers' compensation claims. It also
provides for employer's liability coverage for $1,000,000 per
occurrence. This policy was purchased for an estimated $118,316,
subject to adjustment after audit of the City's total payroll for
1989.
Excess insurance for aggregate workers' compensation losses was not
purchased for 1989, and it is not available for 1990 purchase.
The City, through a recent competitive bid process, asked for
proposals for the subject coverages for 1990 and optional bids (if
available) for 1991. City bid specifications requested proposals
for workers' compensation single incident coverage at three City
retention levels: $250,000; $300,000; and $400,000.
Specifications for each of these retentions called for statutory
levels of coverage beyond City retention levels. Employer's
liability bids were requested at $500,000 per occurrence and
$1,000,000 per occurrence. Specifications stated aggregate stop
loss coverage was not a mandatory part of the bid, but proposals
would be considered. Specifications also provided responding
companies to deviate and submit proposals at other levels of
coverage if they could not provide insurance at requested levels.
Four insurance companies were represented in responses to the
City's requests for bids for 1990 coverage. No bids were received
which would include quotes for 1991 coverage. These four companies
provided a total of eight different proposals, some within the
City's requested specifications and other proposals which are
deviations, but were considered as stated in the specifications.
None of the companies submitted bids for aggregate stop loss
coverage.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1989
In several of the proposals, the basic bid excluded the requested
insurance coverages for aircraft related injuries, but provided
this coverage for an additional premium. None of the bidders
submitted a proposal for single incident retention of $250,000 as
requested in City bids. Two proposals were submitted at the
$300,000 retention level and three at the $400,000 retention level.
In addition, one bid provided for $350,000 City retention and two
bids were submitted with $500,000 retention. All basic premium
estimates were based on a percentage of the City's estimated annual
payroll.
One of the companies, Midwest Employers Casualty Company (the
City's present insurer), is a relatively new company and cannot yet
be rated by A.M. Best. However, this company has shown solid
financial growth over the past three years. The insurance
companies involved in this bid process, along with their Best
ratings and agencies submitting the bids, are as follows:

SUBJECT: NEW LEASE - FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION - AIR
NAVIGATION AIDS - FORT WORTH SPINKS AIRPORT
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council authorize the City Manager to
enter into a new lease with the Federal Aviation Administration for
land, access, and utility easements at Fort Worth Spinks Airport
for the purpose of installation of air navigation aids under the
terms outlined below.
DTSCIISSTON_
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes to enter into an
agreement with the City of Fort Worth for facility sites, access
roads, and utility routes in order to install the air navigation
aids for Runway 35L at Fort Worth Spinks Airport. Aids to be
installed include a medium intensity approach lighting system with
runway alignment indicator lights (MALSR), glide slope (GS) and
middle marker (MM) facilities. Under the terms of the agreement,
FAA will be granted land, access road easements, and utility route
easements for the facilities. The area to be leased includes a
3,600 square feet glide slope site, a 480,000 square feet MALSR
site, and a 44,000 square feet middle marker and RAIL site.
FAA will pay no monetary consideration as it is mutually agreed
that the rights extended to the Government are in consideration of
the obligation assumed by the Government in its establishment,
installation, operation, and maintenance of the facilities proposed
upon the premises.
Term of the contract will begin November 1, 1989 and end
September 30, 1990; however, the lease may, at the option of the
Government, be renewed from year to year, without notice, until
September 30, 2010. The Government may, however, cancel the lease
upon 30 days notice.
FAA will pay for all costs associated with installation of the
facilities, including the access routes, gates, and roads. The
City of Fort Worth must pledge that no obstructions will be allowed
to be constructed which will interfere with the installation,
operation, or transmission of the equipment installed. Funding
responsibility, in case of relocation, replacement, or modification
of the facilities made necessary by airport improvements or changes
which impair or interrupt the technical and/or operational
characteristics of the facilities, will be at the expense of the
City of Fort Worth.
The terms and conditions of this proposed lease are routine and
consistent with other contracts with FAA for air navigation aids at
other airports, including Meacham Airport.
At its meeting on November 16, 1989, the Aviation Advisory Board
unanimously recommended City Council approval of the lease renewal.
It was the consensus of the City Council that the recommendations, as contained in
Mayor and Council Communication No. C-12034, be adopted.
There was presented Mayor and Council Communication No. C-12035 from the City
Manager stating that Pegasus Flight Center, Inc., assumed the lease on basement office

1990, and Pegasus seeks to renew the contract for an additional year; that the term of
the lease renewal will begin on February 1, 1990, and end January 31, 1991; that the
total annual revenue will be $3,138.18; and recommending that the City Manager be
authorized to enter into a lease renewal with Laurent and Bobbie Jo Jacquelin, as
individuals, and Pegasus Flight Center, Inc., for basement space at Fort Worth Meacham
Airport. It was the consensus of the City Council that the recommendation be adopted.
