Ordinance No. BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS:
10717 cont.
SECTION 5.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the revised Assessment Paving
Policy as attached and as outlined to Council on September 25, 1990.
DISCUSSION:
On August 21, 1990, at the request of the City Council, the staff suggested
changes to the Assessment Paving Policy. The goal was to address some
historic concerns of equity regarding vacant property, homesteaded property,
and property with conflicting zoning and use. The City Council offered other
changes, and on September 25, the staff presented amendments dealing with
those situations and with tax-exempt places of worship. The City Council
generally agreed with the changes presented on September 25. The proposed
amendments include:
(A) The Standard Residential Rate will be calculated at 70 percent of the
full cost per front foot for paving and curb and gutter. On new
construction projects, this rate is applicable to all non -homesteaded
residential property and to property used for residential purposes
despite zoning. On new construction and reconstruction projects, this
rate is applicable to all residentially zoned vacant lots and
non -residentially zoned vacant lots in predominantly developed
residential neighborhoods.
(B) Homesteaded residentially used properties, despite zoning, are to be
assessed at one-half of the Standard Residential Rate for new
construction. This one-half rate also applies to tax-exempt places of
worship for both new construction and reconstruction projects.
(C) Assessment rates in paragraphs (A) or (B) above will be limited to a
maximum of 200 front feet per property owner per project except for
tax-exempt places of worship. Frontage in excess of 200 feet will be
assessed at the actual cost of the improvements. Homesteaded property
that exceeds the 200 foot maximum will be highlighted for the City
Council. The City Council then will have the opportunity to take any
special action that seems justified.
(D) No residential assessment will exceed 20 percent of the total property
value established by the Tarrant Appraisal District.
Some exceptions will be made for the cost of curb and gutter, driveways, and
sidewalks where none previously existed. Credits will be granted to
residential property for irregularly shaped lots, paving projects at the side
or rear of lots, and other situations meriting special treatment. The
current policy includes these provisions. Projects which include Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds will continue to be done with no
assessments for residentially used property.
REVIEW OF PROPOSED CHANGES:
As required by the Subdivision Ordinance, on October 4, 1990, copies of the
proposed amendments were filed with the City Secretary and staff provided the
City Plan Commission and representative concerned groups written notice of
the proposed revisions and allowed 30 days for written comments. At its
October 24 meeting, the Plan Commission unanimously voted to recommend that
the City Council accept the proposed policy revisions. No comments were
received from other concerned groups. It is recommended that the City follow
the revised policy for all future assessment paving benefit hearings.
MAC G-8894 adoptedll It was the consensus of the City Council that the recommendation, as contained in Mayor
and Council Communication No. G-8894, be adopted.

SUBJECT: CLEAN LAKES GRANT OFFER
RECOMMENDATION:
! , e1711IN111
The City of Fort Worth completed Phase I of the federal Clean Lakes Program,
through a $100,000 planning grant from the Texas Water Commission (TWC).
Phase I involved a Diagnostic/Feasibility study of Lake Worth, conducted by
the Corps of Engineers. (M&C No. G-7058, 5-7-87; and M&C No. C-10864,
3-24-88.) The Diagnostic/Feasibility study evaluated lake restoration
alternatives and recommended selective dredging, raising the water level one
foot, and implementation of a watershed management plan.
On March 13, 1990 (M&C G-8508) the City Council approved an application for a
maximum of $2,000,000 in grant funds from the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) for Phase II of the Clean Lakes Program. This Phase II
Restoration/Protection Demonstration Project involves the implementation of
the recommendations in the Phase I study. The City of Fort Worth has
received a grant offer of $1,723,706, from EPA through the Texas Water
Commission. The grant amount must be matched with City funds and/or in-kind
services.
BENEFITS:
One of the major concerns with acceptance of this grant is that the money
invested (both the federal share and the City share) result in long-term

Offer - denied
No. G-8899
cont.
Recent discussion with EPA and TWC staff have identified several long-term
be requested to amend the
ancillary benefits resulting from the Phase II activities:
request
1. The City's watershed management program at Lake Worth will be
change which
considerably expanded through the proposed grant activities. In
Worth to utilize
addition to the septic system inspections and improvements currently
for wetland
underway, a comprehensive watershed management program would be
point and non -point source
developed and implemented, to include development controls,
limited
environmental education, water quality monitoring (including the
water intake area.
drainage system), point source control, and enforcement of applicable
regulations.
2. It will be proposed in the Phase II task plan that a portion of the
City's share be utilized to purchase and operate a small dredge to
enhance shoreline areas, to remove trees and stumps, and to dredge at
the raw water intake.
3. A portion of the 10% administrative allotment ($172,370 -federal share)
can be utilized to evaluate a wetlands demonstration project at the
Nature Center and at Silver Creek.
The wetlands that exist within the boundaries of the Fort Worth Nature
Center and Refuge on the upper West Fork of the Trinity River are among
the best and largest of its type in Tarrant County. The concept of
using this wetland area as a nutrient filter for the inflow from Eagle
Mountain Lake into Lake Worth is a concept that meshes very well with
the ethics and philosophies that the Nature Center both teaches the
public, in the environmental education programs, and uses as its land
management guidelines.
Silver Creek is a major contributor of sediment into Lake Worth.
Controlling the sediment input by means of a wetlands project in the
Silver Creek area would benefit Lake Worth.
Currently, Eagle Mountain Lake loadings are the most significant
contribution of nutrients to Lake Worth. An effective lake management
plan includes effectively managing watershed activities. Reducing the
nutrient and sediment loads would have a direct impact on restoring and
maintaining the water quality of the lake.
If the wetlands demonstration project proved feasible, long term
benefits to the wetlands areas and to water quality including nutrient
and sediment removal would be realized.
PROPOSED WORK PLAN AND ESTIMATED COSTS (over a 27 month grant period):
The proposed work plan and estimated costs are in Attachment 1.
Approximately one-half (1/2) of the total cost will be spent on the hydraulic
dredging. The remaining funds will be spent on activities related to water
quality.
The proposed costs total $3,447,412, of which $1,723,706 is the federal share.

DISCUSSION•
re Park and
Recreation Depart-
The implementation of the latest purchasing procedures allowed the various
ment, Zoo Division
City departments greater flexibility in handling the purchases of lower
dollar items for facility operation. The Park and Recreation Department
believes the use of a rotating vendor program is advantageous since it can
reduce the required volume of inventory for pharmaceuticals, food
supplements, capture, x-ray, clinical and laboratory supplies necessary to
provide an animal health program. The intent of the rotating vendor list is
to utilize multiple local vendors, expedite critical needs and maintain
standard procedures on purchases of items costing $250.00 or less. The
vendor list could change as qualified vendors request to be added or vendors
cease doing business. Occasionally, the purchase of an item may exceed the
$250.00 limit. When this happens, the division head will submit a
requisition to the Purchasing Division for issuance of a purchase order in
accordance with purchasing procedures. The requesting department is
responsible for following the list with an employee assigned to log the
expenditures and assign the next vendor.
FINANCING:
Budgeted funds are sufficient to cover the anticipated expenditure in General
Fund GG01, Park and Recreation Department.

cultural type food of live animals housed in the Fort Worth Zoo; that the price of the agricultural type

Recreation Depart- effort to insure an ample supply of food, it is recommended that the Zoological
ment from various Division be authorized to obtain competitive prices, at time of purchase, based on
vendors based availability and nutritional value; stating that budgeted funds are sufficient to cover
on availability the anticipated expenditure in this department; and recommending that the purchase
nutritional value agreement be authorized with various vendors based on availability, nutritional value,
and price at the time of purchase; restrict this purchase agreement to the Park and
Recreation Department, Zoological Division; and authorize agreement to become effective

FDTV delivers fire related broadcasts and training programming to fire
departments across the nation via satellite link. This programming includes
such training broadcasts as fire ground command, fire tactics, building
construction, apparatus and equipment standards, etc. Equipment used to
receive the programming will be installed at the Fire Training Academy.
Programs will be recorded, duplicated, and made available for viewing at fire
stations.
Given the budget reductions in personnel, fire companies, and apparatus, it
is to the Fire Department's advantage to conduct as much in-service training
as feasible in the fire stations as opposed to moving fire crews from their
stations to the Training Academy. Although not quantifiable at this time,
savings in apparatus wear and tear, fuel, and maintenance costs will be
realized by utilizing the FDTV in -station training as described.
Terms and conditions of the agreement including the following:
The term of the agreement is for one year from the completion of the
installation of the equipment or the commencement of FDTV network
broadcasting, whichever is later, and may be cancelled during the first
year by either party without cause upon 60 days' written notice.
The agreement shall be renewed automatically from year to year unless 60
days' notice is given by either party that the agreement shall terminate
at the end of the current term.
FDTV will provide and install a receive -only satellite antenna with
appropriate mount, associated cabling, and an integrated
receiver -decoder.
At the end of the term of the agreement, or if the agreement is
cancelled, FDTV will remove all equipment at its expense.
FDTV will maintain the equipment at no charge to the City, and will
perform emergency maintenance within two business days of notification
of malfunction.
Programming will consist of not less than 120 hours of broadcast time
per month.

SUBJECT: CONTRACT AMENDMENT - DAY CARE ASSOCIATION OF TARRANT COUNTY -
YEAR XVI CDBG CONTRACT
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to approve
a contract amendment to the Day Care Association's Pre -School Child Care
contract for Year XVI. This amendment provides for continued developmental
child care services and the incorporation of Head Start "wrap-around" funding
for the Station 12 Center in the Near Northside. The program in the Near
Southeast will remain as a developmental day care program.
No additional CDBG funds are required.
RAf ynPni INn
For a number of years, as part of the Community Development Block Grant
program, the Day Care Association of Fort Worth and Tarrant County has had a
contract with the City to provide developmental day care services to the
pre-school children of low and moderate income parents in the Near North and
Near Southeast Target Areas. The programs are designed to provide safe,
affordable developmental child care to pre-schoolers, allowing their parents
to remain employed or receive job training, thus assisting them in achieving
self-sufficiency.
CDBG dollars for
this program have been leveraged with
U.S.D.A.
monies for
food and nutrition
and with participant fees, which are
based on
a sliding
scale. However,
available funding has not kept pace
with the
program's
operating costs, and the program has operated at a deficit, ranging
from
$7,722 to $51,515
for the last five years. This deficit
has been
absorbed by

tion's Pre -School Health and Human Services for operation of eleven Head Start child care
Child Care contract centers. The Association is eligible to receive additional funds for
for Year XVI CDBG expansion of its Head Start centers.
grant :...
One of the thrusts of
the new Head
Start expansion
money is
specified as a
"wrap-around" funding
arrangement,
which would use
Head Start funds to
"wrap-around" existing
programs to
enrich or expand
them.
The Day Care
Association is proposing
that "wrap-around"
funding be
applied
to the current
CDBG funded programs,
to maintain
and improve the
quality
and financial
security of these programs.
The proposed amendment to the Year XVI contract will permit Head Start funds
to be used for the center located at 2410 Prospect Street. The developmental
day care program at this center will continue to provide child care from
6:30 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. The additional Head Start funding will also permit
more CDBG funds to be used for staffing and other program improvements at the
Near Southeast Child Care center.
FINANCING:
The proposed budget of $375,000 for the Head Start/CDBG developmental day
care program at Station 12 and the developmental day care program in the Near
Southeast area includes the previously approved $140,000 Year XVI CDBG
allocation, $95,000 in Head Start monies; $80,000 in parent fees; and $60,000
in U.S.D.A. funds. This amendment requires no increase in Year XVI CDBG
funding.

City of Sansom SUBJECT: CONTRACT WITH CITY OF SANSOM PARK FOR LEASE OF PROPERTY FOR THE
Park for the Sansoo SANSOM PARK NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER FROM OCTOBER 1, 1990 TO
Park Center DECEMBER 31, 1990
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to:
1. Renew a lease agreement with the City of Sansom Park for the Sansom Park
Center for the period beginning October 1, 1990, through December 31,
1990, and for an amount not to exceed $200.00 per month, contingent upon
the receipt of funding from Tarrant County and the Texas Department of
Community Affairs.
2. Upon expiration of this agreement, the NRDP office be relocated to the
North Tri -Ethnic Center at 2950 Roosevelt.
D T _1M I c, -';T ON!
On August 29, 1989 (M&C C-11842), the City Council authorized the City
Manager to execute a lease agreement providing for the rental of Sansom Park
Center at $200.00 per month. This lease period ends on September 30, 1990.
The center is used by the Neighborhood Resources Development (NRD) Program
which is funded by a grant from the Texas Department of Community Affairs
(TDCA). The staff assigned to this Center provides social and other related
services for residents of Sansom Park and northwest Tarrant County. The NRD
services include case management, information and referral, employment
assistance, emergency assistance, and intake for the Energy Crisis Program.
The County is eligible to receive and administer NRDP funds; however, the
County opted to allow the City to incorporate this program into the Human
Services Department. The County annually funds $10,000 to help defray
$10,000 worth of expenses.
Under the terms of the grant, the administering agent must provide services
to all residents in the service area (i.e. County).
The City has historically contracted with the City of Sansom Park for use of
a portion of a City -owned facility for $200 per month. This facility also
includes areas not utilized for the NRDP services.
The City staff has discussed with the Mayor of Sansom Park the possibility of
the $200 rental fee being waved inasmuch as these services are primarily
provided to Sansom Park and other non -Fort Worth residents. The Sansom Park
City Council has discussed the request and has rejected it.

SUBJECT: PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 4 FOR GATEWAY PARK - PHASE II DEVELOPMENT
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to approve
Change Order No. 4 to City Secretary Contract No. 17838 with Steele -Freeman,
Inc., in the amount of $12,388.20, increasing the total contract amount to
$2,223,672.17, for the construction and installation of park improvements in

nT Crl ICC TnN
On April 24, 1990 (M&C C-12286), the City Council authorized the City Manager
to execute City Secretary Contract No. 17838 with Steele -Freeman, Inc., in
the amount of $2,208,570.17 to construct and install park improvements in
Gateway Park.
On July 16, 1990, Change Order No. 1 to the contract was administratively
approved, reducing by $200.00 the contract amount due to the deletion of soil
sterilization of soccer fields and the addition of moving 7,000 CY of gravel.
On September 10, 1990, Change Order No. 2 to the contract was
administratively approved, increasing by $1,925.80 the contract amount due to
the addition of a ten -inch valve to the water main extension and the addition
of two four -inch water connections to provide water for proposed parking lot
washing.
On September 10, 1990, Change Order No. 3 to the contract was also
administratively approved, increasing by $988.00 the contract amount due to
the addition and repair of an existing 10 -inch water main tee.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 4:
1. To gain the proper rate of lime (27 lbs./SY) to the roadway's subgrade,
an additional 49 tons of lime at a price of $81.80/ton should be added
to the contract. (An addition to Unit I, Roads and Parking, Item 19,
Lime for Subgrade).
Add $ 4,008.20
2. While installing a new 10 -inch water line extension in East First
Street, three existing water taps need to be reworked from the main
through the meters. (An addition to Unit II, Off -Site Water Extension,
Item 1, 10 -inch Water Line).
Add $ 1,045.00
3. While driving piles for the South River Access Point, rock was
encountered. To gain the proper pile depth, it is necessary to drill
through the rock formation prior to driving the wood piles. This
operation must occur at 18 locations through seven feet of rock. A
drilling price of $17.50/LF would be applied to this unit. (An addition
to Unit VI, River Access Points, Item 3, Structural Wood Piles).
Add $ 2,205.00
4. After on-site inspection of proposed trail system, it has been noted
that two additional foot bridges need to be added to the contract.
These structures will insure proper drainage and maintenance of the
proposed trail system. It is necessary to add one 15 -foot and one
30 -foot bridge. Total linear footage addition would be 45 feet, at a
price of $114.00/LF. (An addition to Unit III, Walk, Trails and Plaza,
Item 7, Trail Bridges).

. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1990
BACKGROUND:
On February 27, 1990 (M&C C-12185), the City Council awarded a contract in
the amount of $469,311.72 and 72 working days to Architectural Utilities,
Inc., for the construction of Magnolia Streetscape III (5th to 8th). This
project was assigned City Secretary Contract No. 17747.
DISCUSSION:
The owner of the property at the southeast corner of Magnolia and 7th desires
to make changes to the storm drain system on their property to eliminate a
chronic flooding condition. This requires an additional 170 L.F. of 45" RCP,
a manhole and junction box, adjusting the sanitary sewer line and installing
a sanitary sewer line for a total cost of $27,977.00. Further, the property
owner at the northwest corner of Magnolia and 6th has requested a revision to
the parkway area. This revision calls for the deletion of some of the
planned red pavers, a tree grate, bends, and installation of a .12 S.Y. of
concrete pavement for a net reduction of $1,523.00. The contractor has
agreed to complete all of the above work for a total additional cost of
$26,454.00 and nine (9) additional work days. Engineering staff has reviewed
this proposed change and find the charges to be reasonable and fair.

RACKGROUND:
On December 12, 1989 (M&C C-12048), City Council awarded a contract in the
amount of $472,137.93 and 140 working days to Walt Williams Construction
Company, Inc., to reconstruct May Street (Berry to Mulkey). This contract
was assigned City Secretary Contract No. 17573.
DISCUSSION:
Upon removal of the existing asphalt pavement, it was found that 2,670 square
yards of concrete base would also have to be removed at a cost of $10,012.50.
Also, several additional utility adjustments were necessary at a cost of
$8,000.
In addition, several contract quantities were determined to be insufficient
to complete the project: Additional quantities of driveway and sidewalk
removals (14,826 S.F.), HMAC removal (1,289 S.Y.), 7" concrete curb (1,249
L.F.), and HMAC transition (52 tons). Also 8,755 S.F. of 4' concrete sidewalk
was needed to properly complete the project.
The contractor has agreed to complete this additional work for a total cost
of $58,691.00. Engineering staff has reviewed this proposal and find the
proposal reasonable and proper for the work being done.
