Minutes of City Council 0-3 Page 214
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1990
It is anticipated that Sunbelt Industrial Development Corporation ("Sunbelt")
M&C C-12194 cont. will issue bonds to finance the construction of Page's aircraft maintenance
facility hangars. If such bonds are issued, the obligation to pay the debt
service on the bonds will be the sole obligation of Page, and will not be an
obligation of the City.
II. Site Improvements:
In conjunction with the hangar's construction, the City will construct and
maintain at its expense the following improvements to serve the Phase I lease
site:
1. Necessary ramp;
2. Taxiway;
3. Roads;
4. Automobile parking lots;
5. Deluge system storage tank and pump; and
6. Necessary utilities service to the hangar..
In addition to site improvements required solely for the Page Avjet lease,
additional work is required at Meacham Airport to remove eleven fuel storage
tanks. These tanks are approximately forty years old and need to be replaced
to reduce the risk of environmental pollution. Although these tanks require
removal separate and apart from the Page lease, removal must take place in
conjunction with the Page site improvement work. Replacing the eleven tanks
with five new tanks will adequately serve fuel storage needs met by the old
tanks. Estimated cost for tank removal is $120,000.00 and estimated cost for
purchase and installation of five new tanks is $375,000.00.
Site improvements and fuel tank removal and replacement is estimated to cost
$2,600,000.00. Page will contribute a one-time payment of $274,000.00 toward
defraying the cost of site improvements resulting in a net cost to the City
of $2,326,000.00.
III. Leased Premises:
For Phase I. the City will lease to Page approximately 227,500 square feet of
unimproved land for a period of twenty (20) years, with an option to renew
the Phase I lease for two additional terms of five (5) years each. Page will
pay rent as follows:
Years 1 and 2 - 0
Years 3 through 5 $137,000..00 annually (in monthly
payments),
Years 6 through 30 - 10% of fair market value of unimproved
land annually (in monthly payments), but
in no event shall the annual rental ever
be less than $137,000.00. Reappraisal
for rent determination shall be made in
years 6, 11, 16, 21, 26. Following each
reappraisal, the rent shall remain
constant for a period of five years.
If Page is required to pay ad valorem taxes, Page shall be given a dollar for
dollar credit for the City's portion of the tax revenues (approximately 45%)
against the $137,000.00 annual rental obligation for Phase I rental.
IV. Option for Phases II and III:
Page shall have a ten-year lease option for Phases II and III property for
the annual sum of $1.00. In the event that the City constructs the ramp
improvements for Phases II and III, the option period will be reduced to a
period of five years from the date of the construction of the ramp
improvements, or a period for the balance of the ten-year option, whichever
comes first. Site improvements necessary for the Phases II and III lease
area (excluding hangars) are to be made by the City, when and if funds become
available during the ten-year option period.
For Phases II and III leasehold, the City will lease to Page approximately
693,833 square feet of unimproved land for a period of twenty (20) years for
each phase, with an option to extend the lease on each phase for an
additional term of ten (10) years. Page will pay rent as follows:
10% of fair market value of
unimproved land annually
(in monthly payments).
Reappraisal for rent
determination shall be made in
years 6, 11, 16, 21, 26. times (x)
Following each reappraisal, the
rent shall remain constant for
a period of five years.

Council Single- DISTRICT NOS. 2, 6 AND 7 RESJLTI�3 FR )y A�VEXATIONS AND
Member districts DISANNEXATIONS
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that:
1. The City Council approve the recommended revisions to City Council
District Nos. 2, 6 and 7, to reflect recent annexations and
disannexations from the City; and
2. An ordinance amending Sections 2, 6 and 7 of Ordinance No. 7323, as
amended, be adopted in order to make the single-nember district
boundaries coincide with the current cor)orate )oundaries.
RArmniiNn.
A specially called City Council electioi is scred.led for Saturday, May 5,
1990, to fill the vacated City Council seat for D's{,ict 7. In order for the
City of Fort Worth to comply with the Voting Rights Act of 1955, information
on the nature, scope and potential .impact of any )o.ndary changes on the
electoral process since the City's last su)iission nest be submitted to the
United States Department of Justice no later than sixty days prior to the
scheduled election. This information must irclide dances in population, and
the accessibility of the process to all citizens, particularly to minority
citizens. I -
The last revisions to the Single Member District Plan were approved by the
City Council on February 21, 1989, prior to the City Coincil calling its
regularly scheduled City Council elections aid the City CFarter Amendment
election. Since the adoption of these revisiors, t,ere Favi been six (6)
changes in the City's corporate boundaries. Four (4) of these changes
resulted from annexations while two (2) res. ted f ron disanrexations. Each
of these changes is briefly described be' ow, alorg witt its impact and the
recommendation as to which single -member district each ewly annexed area
should be included and from which single -ire -)e, districts the disannexed
areas should be deleted.
AREAS ANNEXED:
Annexation Number 1
City Ordi-ance to. 10357
Annexation of 1388.318 acres in Alliance Internatio-al Centre.
Present Population: 0
Projected Population: 3,846
This area should be added to District 2, as it is c)nt*-,oas to that District.
At the time of annexation it contained zero )opu'ation and zero dwelling
units. Proposed development includes 218.57 acres of single-family
development,.
Annexation Number 2
City Ordinance Do. 10379
Annexation of 119.025 acres in Old Decatur Vil'age Addition.
Present Population: 0
Projected Population: 1,931
This area should be added to District 2, as it is contiguous to that District.
At the time of annexation it contained ze-o )opilation and zero dwelling
units. Proposed development includes 38 aces of milti-family development.
Annexation Number 3 City Ordirance No. 10488
Annexation of 1.055 acres in Tally Additior.
Present Population: 0
Projected Population: 0
This area should be added to District 2, as it is conti uo.s ti that District.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1990
M&C G-8489 cont. This area should be added to District 2, as it is contiguous to that District.
At the time of annexation it contained zero population and zero dwelling
units. Proposed development is non-residential.
AREAS DISANNEXED:
Disannexation Number 1 City Ordinance No. 10370
Disannexation of 112 acres in Smallwood Estates Addition.
Present Population: 126
Projected Population: 147
This area should be deleted from District 6, as it is totally contiguous to
that District. At the time of disannexation it contained 126 population and
42 dwelling units.
Disannexation Number 2
City Ordinance No. 10472
Disannexation of 12.5 acres in Eagle Mountain Circle Area.
Present Population: 20
Projected Population: 24
This area should be deleted from District 7, as it is totally contiguous to
that District. At the time of disannexation it contained 20 population and 8
dwelling units.
IMPACT:'
The impact of these changes in corporate boundaries on the specially called
City Council election for Single -Member District 7 is negligible. At the
time these annexations occurred, no population was added to the City and none
of the annexations added territory to District No. 7. Of the two
disannexations, only the Eagle Mountain Circle Area disannexation, with a
present population of 20 persons, impacted District 7.
To date, very little development has occurred in the newly annexed areas,
and, as a result, any changes in their population figures since the time of
annexation are insignificant. No significant changes in minority access to
and influence on election results are anticipated as a result of the
annexations and disannexations.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1990
&C G-8482 cont. each case the abutting property is specially benefited in enhanced value in
excess of the amount assessed for the improvement of Judkins Street from
Ennis Avenue to East First Street.
DISCUSSION:
The 1986 Capital Improvement Program approved in March, 1986, included funds
for the improvement of Judkins Street from Ennis Avenue to East First, Street.
This street is located in the Riverside Target Area, and Community
Development Block Grant funds will. finance 30 percent of the construction
cost.
On January 30, 1990 (M&C C-12136), the City Council awarded the construction
contract for this project and established February 27, 1990, as the date of
the benefit hearing. Notices have been given in accordance with
Article 1105b, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes.
The project is located in Council District 8.
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS:
It is proposed to improve this segment of Judkins Street by constructing
six-inch thick reinforced concrete pavement with seven-inch high attached
concrete curb over a six-inch thick lime stabilized subgrade so that the
finished roadway will be twenty-eight feet wide on a sixty-four foot
right -of -way. Six-inch thick concrete driveway approaches will be
constructed where specified on the plans.
ASSESSMENTS:
This street has not previously been constructed to City standards and is
located in a CDBG Target Area; therefore, in accordance with the Assessment
Paving Policy, properties zoned and used for one and two-family residences
are not being assessed.
An independent appraiser has advised the staff as to the amount of
enhancement to property values that will result from the proposed
improvements. Based on standard City policy, the low bid prices, and the
advice of the independent appraiser, the cost of the construction has been
computed at $23,230.64 (13%) for the property owners and $153,070.27 (87%)
for the City of Fort Worth at large.
Minutes of City Council 0-3 Page 225
The independent appraisal substantiates that, as a result of the proposed
construction, each parcel of adjacent property will be enhanced in value by
an amount equal to or greater than the proposed assessment.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1990
&C C-12180 cont. 11RECOMMENDATION: ..
It is recommended that the City Manager be authorized to execute Change Order
No. 25 to. T.L. James & Company's contract for Alliance Airport, Phase II
improvements in the amount of $126,682.28 providing for the revisions to the
electrical vault and associated equipment, and Change Order No. 26 in the
amount of $164,438.54 providing for revised Taxiway Guidance Signage,
increasing the contract amount to $23,756,071.30.
DISCUSSION•
On October 25, 1989 (M&C C-11265), the City Council awarded a construction
contract to T.L. James & Company for paving, lighting, and drainage
improvements at Alliance Airport in the amount of $19,820,408.70. This
contract has been subsequently amended by approved Change Orders 1 through 24
so that it currently stands at $23,464,950.48.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 25:
The electrical vault bid under the original construction plans was suitable
for an 8200 ft. runway with a Category I instrument approach on the north end.
However, major concept changes that lengthened the runway to 9600 ft. added
an instrument approach on the south end, upgraded the main runway approach to
Category III, and configured Taxiway B as an emergency runway called for
redesign and rethinking the equipment scheme. The vault was increased in
size by 60 percent, an automatic transfer switch was added for emergency
power backup, and panels were extensively modified to handle additional
circuits. Total cost for all of the additional electrical items is
$126,682.28.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 26:
During the course of construction, it was determined that the taxiway
guidance signs were inappropriate for the type of aircraft to be operated at
Alliance Airport. A larger sign located further from the taxiway was
substituted for the signs in the original contract. The total additional cost
of these larger signs and the electrical connections required to operate them
is $164,438.54.

FINANCING:
Both of the Change Orders above are for grant eligible items. Although -the
total of existing grants has been exceeded, the Federal Aviation
Administration has authority under Section 512 (b) (3) of the Airport and
Airway Safety and Capacity Expansion Act of 1987 to increase existing grants
up to 15 percent. They have indicated on numerous occasions their plans to
amend the existing grants subject to the availability of funds. A letter
dated September 8, 1989 from Jack Sasser, F.A.A. Deputy Regional
Administrator, spells out the authority and the intention to consider
amendments. Since the subject proposed Change Orders are within the limits
of the amendment authority, the City would expect to be fully reimbursed for
these expenditures. A receivable would be created to reflect this
expectation.

M&C C-12195 re There was presented Mayor and Council Communication No. C-12195 from the City
Golf Course Manage Manager, as follows:
ment and License
Agreement SUBJECT: MANAGEMENT OF THE MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSES
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Approve a Golf Course Management and License Agreement with American
Golf Corporation (AGC) to manage the City's Z. Boaz Golf Course;
2. Approve a Golf Course Management and License Agreement with
International Golf of Texas (IGT) to manage the City's Rockwood Golf
Course; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute the approved license agreements.
DISCUSSION:
On March 7, 1989, the City Council approved M&C G-7953 authorizing the City
staff to prepare and issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the management
of Sycamore, Rockwood, and Z. Boaz Golf courses. In response to the RFP, the
City received proposals from Country Clubs of American, American Golf
Corporation, International Golf of Texas, and the City's Park and Recreation
Department.
After lengthy discussions and considering several alternatives, the City
Council Golf Committee requested the staff to formalize the terms of the
proposals and include them in draft contracts with American Golf Corporation
and International Golf of Texas to manage Z. Boaz and Rockwood Golf Courses
respectively. The committee further requested that the Park and Recreation
Department develop a detailed Capital Improvement Program proposal outlining
improvements to and the management of all the City's golf courses. The terms
of the proposed contracts with AGC and IGT are summarized in attachments "A"
and "B".
A comparison of the financial impact on the Golf Enterprise Fund was made for
two options. Option I includes the management of all the municipal golf
courses by the Park and Recreation Department. Under Option II, Z. Boaz and
Rockwood golf courses would be managed by AGC and IGT and the Park and
Recreation Department would manage the remaining golf course. The comparison
of these two options shows that Option II would generate $699,511 more than
Option I in excess revenues over expenditures during the next six years for

M&C C-12195 cont. the Golf Enterprise Fund. Further, Option II would reduce the total debt
service to the Fund by $3,740,550 as compared to Option I. Option II would
also provide for the addition of nine holes at the Rockwood Golf course.
Based on the comparison of the financial impact on the Golf Enterprise Fund
by both options, staff recommends that Option II be considered.
Because the playing season is about to begin, staff recommends that if the
agreements are approved, that the effective date of the agreements be
October 1, 1990. This will allow for a smooth transition of the management
of the golf courses.
