SUBJECT: BENEFIT HEARING FOR THE ASSESSMENT PAVING OF BRYCE STREET FROM
NEVILLE STREET TO MERRICK STREET AND CRESTLINE ROAD FROM NEVILLE
STREET TO CAMP BOWIE BOULEVARD (PROJECT NO. 30-025257-00)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt an ordinance closing the
benefit hearing and levying assessments as proposed, acknowledging that in
each case the abutting property is benefited by an enhanced value at least in
the amount assessed for the improvement of Bryce Street from Neville Street
to Merrick Street and Crestline Road from Neville Street to Camp Bowie
Boulevard.
DISCUSSION:
On May 22, 1982, the voters of Fort Worth approved the 1982-83 Capital
Improvement Program which included $2,552,000 for the reconstruction of
Crestline Road from Camp Bowie Boulevard to Merrick Street. In 1984, a
consultant's study of proposed improvements to Crestline Road concluded that
the project should be postponed at that time. However, the pavement of
Crestline Road has since deteriorated and is beyond economical repair.
Crestline Road does not extend to Merrick Street but ends where it angles
into Bryce Street at the intersection with Neville. In order to maintain the
integrity of the project limits approved by the voters, the block of Bryce
from Neville to Merrick is also being reconstructed at this time.
The existing street consists of HMAC pavement in poor condition with curb and
gutter.
On July 12, 1990 (M&C G-8711), the City Council established August 7, 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 7.
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS:
The improvement on Bryce Street and Crestline Road will include a six-inch
concrete pavement section with standard curb on a two-inch HMAC base over a
six-inch lime stabilized subgrade so that the finished roadway will vary from
Minutes of City Council Q-3 Page 11
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1990
thirty to thirty-six feet wide on a variable width right-of-way. Driveway
approaches and sidewalks will be constructed where specified on the plans.
ASSFSSMFNTS:
This street has previously been constructed to City standards; 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 City Engineer's estimate
and the advice of the independent appraiser, the cost of the construction has
been computed at $163,180.20 (17%) for the property owners and $806,285.72
(83%) for the City of Fort Worth at large.
Mayor Pro tempore Gilley made a motion, seconded by Council Member Chappell, that
the benefit hearing for the assessment paving of Bryce Street from Neville Street to
Merrick Street and Crestline Road from Neville Street to Camp Bowie Boulevard, be
closed and that the assessments against Lots 1 through 7, Block 14, Chamberlain Heights

assessments be levied at 50 percent of the enhanced value upon his findings that the
enhancements are less than indicated.

fiscal year which was recommended by the property owners of Fort Worth
Improvement District No. 3 (the "District").
3. Adopt the attached Resolution which:
(a) makes certain findings concerning the proposed improvements and/or
services to be provided by the District during the 1990-91 fiscal
year, the estimated costs, the method of assessment and the
apportionment of costs between the District and the City as a
whole; and
(b) directs the City Secretary to publish notice of such findings as
provided by law.
4. Waive the requirement that the City Manager take competitive bids for
the improvements and/or services to be provided by the district in the
1990-1991 fiscal year and direct the City Manager to prepare a document

BACKGROUND:
On September 11, 1990, the City Council will hold a public hearing concerning
the service plan and budget for the Fort Worth Improvement District No. 3

taken if at least one-third of the cost of the improvements on the related
matters to be procured by a city are to be paid for by or through special
assessments levied on property that will benefit from the improvements.

District No. 3 for the 1990-1991 fiscal year;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT
WORTH, TEXAS:
1. The City Council, after duly considering the evidence and testimony
presented at the public hearing held on September 11, 1990, hereby makes
the following findings:
(a) It is advisable for the Fort Worth Improvement District No. 3 (the

during the 1990-1991 fiscal year, i.e., October 1, 1990 through
September 30, 1991.
(b) The general nature of the special supplemental services to be

I-30 freeway.
(3) An infrastructure plan to determine the infrastructure
improvements necessary to support the land use plan.

(iv) generate positive publicity for the District.
(7) A management program to provide for the establishment,
administration, management, and operation of the District.
The special supplemental services will be a supplement to the
standard existing level of city improvements and/or services and
will constitute an added increment to the improvements and/or
services normally provided to the taxpayers generally. The City
will continue to furnish or pay for standard improvements and/or
services in the district at the same level as they would be
provided to the taxpayers generally. The City will be paid an
annual administrative fee equal to 1% of the assessments to
reimburse the City for its expenses incurred in administration and
operation of the district.
(c) Exclusive of the expense of establishing the district, the
estimated costs of the special supplemental services for the
district during the first year of operation are $88,851 for
planning, marketing and management.

accordance with the service, improvement and assessment plan
heretofore approved and adopted by the City Council on July 12,
1990. The updated service, improvement and assessment plan for the
1990-1991 fiscal year which was recommended to the City Council by
the property owners of the District is also hereby approved and
adopted. A copy of such plan is on file with the City Secretary of
the City of Fort Worth. Although such plan shows projected
revenues in 1992, 1993 and 1994 from tax increment financing,
adoption of this resolution by the City Council does not constitute
a commitment by the City of Fort Worth to create a reinvestment
zone for tax increment financing.
(e) The boundaries of the district are: The area along Lancaster and
along Vickery between Henderson and I -35W as more particularly
described in the Boundary Description and the Boundary Map attached
hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference.
(f) The method of assessment is:
(1) A service plan was approved and adopted by the City Council on
July 12, 1990 for a period of not less than five years. The
plan would be reviewed and updated annually by the City
Council to determine the annual budget for improvements and/or
services within the district.
(2) The cost of special supplemental services will be assessed
against real property within the District according to the
value of the property, including improvements, as determined
annually by the City Council, provided that
(i) During the initial four-year term of the District,
annual assessments against property in the District,
including improvements, shall not exceed an amount equal
to $0.43 per $100 of the value of such property and
improvements as determined by the City Council.
(ii) Property, including improvements, within existing or
proposed transportation rights-of-way (e.g., for public
streets, highways, and railroads) are deemed to receive
no special benefit from, and will not be assessed for,
the special supplemental services.
(iii) Property, including improvements, that will be taken or
condemned because of their proximity to proposed
transportation rights-of-way are deemed to receive no
special benefit from and will not be assessed for, the
special supplemental services.
(iv) Ground lease interests, including improvements, where
the unexpired term of the lease is less than 15 years
are deemed to receive no special benefit from, and will
not be assessed for, the special supplemental services.
(3) The City Council of the City of Fort Worth will be authorized
to establish by ordinance reasonable classifications and
formulas for the apportionment of costs between the City and
the property to be assessed and to establish the methods for
assessing special benefits for various classes of improvements
and/or services.
(g) The apportionment of costs between the improvement district and the
city as a whole shall be:
Minutes of City Council Q-3 Page 18
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1990
(1) All of the cost of an improvement and/or service shall be paid
by special assessments against real property and structures or
other improvements thereon in the district.
(2) The City as a whole will continue to provide standard
improvements and services to the district at the same level as
they are provided to the taxpayers generally.
(h) The probable maximum benefits to be conferred on each tract in the
district because of the special supplemental services will be
greater than the amount of the assessment against such tract and
the owners thereof. The private sector parties who are selected to
administer the district will provide evidence at each benefit
hearing on which the City Council can base its decision to levy
assessments.
(i) The area to be assessed may not include any property not within the
area described in paragraph (e) unless an additional hearing is
held to include the property and notice for the hearing is given in
the same manner as notice under Section 372.009 of the Public
Improvement District Assessment Act.
(j) The district will exist for four years immediately following the
date of publication of notice of establishment of the district
unless property owners in the district petition the City Council
for re-establishment of the district, or unless the district is
sooner terminated as provided by law.
2. The City Secretary is hereby directed to give notice of authorization
for the district to provide improvements and/or services during the
1990-1991 fiscal year by publishing a copy of this Resolution once in a
newspaper of general circulation in the City of Fort Worth.
3. The City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to prepare a document
for City Council approval which would award a contract with SENCA to
provide improvements and/or services in the district under this
Resolution and the service plan for the 1990-1991 fiscal year hereby
adopted by the Council.
4. The district shall be a complete alternative to other methods by which
the City of Fort Worth may finance public improvements and/or special
supplemental services by assessing property owners.
