Mrs. Martha Lunday,

re BH -0049
Works, appeared before the City
Council and introduced into evidence Mayor and Council
Communication No. BH -0049, as follows:
SUBJECT: BENEFIT HEARING FOR THE ASSESSMENT PAVING OF EXETER STREET FROM
VICKERY BOULEVARD TO E. TERRELL AVENUE (PROJECT NO. 67-040245)
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 specially benefited in enhanced value in
excess of the amount assessed for the improvement of Exeter Street from
Vickery Boulevard to E. Terrell Avenue.
DISCUSSION:
The 1986 Capital Improvement Program approved in March 1986, included funds
for the improvement of Exeter Street from Vickery Boulevard to E. Terrell
Avenue. The existing street consists of HMAC pavement in poor condition with
some curb and gutter. It is in the Near Southeast Target Area and has never
previously been constructed to City standards. Community Development Block
Grant funds will provide a portion of the construction cost. In accordance
with the Assessment Paving Policy, properties zoned and used for one- and
two-family residences are not being assessed.
On March 14, 1991 (M&C G-9067), the City Council established April 9, 1991,
as the date of the benefit hearing. Notices have been given in accordance
with Article 11O5b, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes.
Minutes of City Council R-3 Page 341
TUESDAY, APRIL 9, 1991
BH -0049 cont. II The project is located in Council District 8.
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS:
It is proposed to improve this segment of Exeter Street by constructing a
standard concrete pavement section with curb over a lime stabilized subgrade.
The finished roadway will be thirty feet wide on a fifty foot right-of-way.
Standard driveway approaches and sidewalks will be constructed where
specified on the plans.
ASSESSMENTS:
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 $9,791.10 (8%) for the property owners and $107,908.90 (92%)
for the City of Fort Worth at large.
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.
UNUSUAL SITUATION:
The property at the southeast corner of Vickery and Exeter (Lot 1, Block 16,
Glenwood Addition) is an irregularly-shaped lot with very shallow depth at
the south end. Should Council desire to make any adjustment to the assessment
in recognition of this fact, staff would recommend that only the northern 100
feet be assessed, reducing the assessment from $4,991.10 to $3,930.00.
Mrs. Lunday advised the City Council that the report of Mr. Robert Martin, independent
appraiser, previously has been furnished to the City Council; that Mr. Martin's report
states he has determined that the subject parcel experience a special benefit and that
that special benefit is quantified in his summary of enhanced values; and that Mr.
Martin is available for questioning.
Mr. Haddon Herter Mr. Haddon Hertel, Rt. 8, Box 649, owner of Lot 1, Block 16, Glenwood Addition,
re BH -0049 which property is adjacent to Exeter Street from Vickery Boulevard to East Terrell
Avenue, appeared before the City Council and expressed opposition to the assessment
paving of Exeter Street from Vickery Boulevard to East Terrell Avenue and presented the
City Council with a petition of owners being assessed on this project protesting the
construction of Exeter Street.
There being no one else present desiring to be heard in connection with the
assessment paving of Exeter Street from Vickery Boulevard to East Terrell Avenue,
Council Member Webber made a motion, seconded by Council Member McCray, that the
assessment paving of Exeter Street from Vickery Boulevard to East Terrell Avenue be
approved as recommended, with the exception that the assessment against Lot 1, Block
16, Glenwood Addition be set at $3,930.00.
Mr. Gary Santerre Mr. Gary Santerre, Director of the Transportation and Public Works Department,
re BH -0049 appeared before the City Council and advised the City Council that the entrance to
Exeter Street is limited as a result of the construction of East Hattie and advised the
City Council that a concrete base is as equitable as an asphalt base and that a
concrete pavement would last for a longer period of time.
When the motion, that the assessment paving of Exeter Street from Vickery
Boulevard to East Terrell Avenue be approved as recommended, with the exception that
the assessment against Lot 1, Block 16, Glenwood Addition, be set at $3,930.00., was put
to a vote by the Mayor, it prevailed unanimously.

Roof.
DISCUSSION:
In M&C P-4785, March 5, 1991, the purchase of labor and materials to provide
roof repairs from Franklin's Corporation was approved. This was based on
$255,000 plus $22,000 Addendum Price and $8.75 per foot for replacement of
metal deck and expansion joints. Total cost of the project will not exceed
$297,000.
As stated in M&C P-4785, the Transportation and Public Works Department
requested that bids be solicited for the Will Rogers Memorial Coliseum roof.
This roof suffered hail damage during a thunderstorm in April, 1990. The
roof is leaking which has caused water damage to the interior. Insurance
coverage of the building requires the first $100,000 in repairs to be paid by
the City. The insurer carrier has not agreed to pay for the entire balance of
the repairs. The City has, to date, recovered only $80,750 from its
insurance carrier. This recovery is based on the low bid from an earlier bid
process that was determined to be flawed and unacceptable. M&C P-4785 stated
that City staff would continue to negotiate with the insurance provider to
achieve the maximum settlement. Subsequent negotiation attempts have been
undertaken, but have been fruitless. It is necessary, therefore, for the
balance of the project's funding to be provided by the Capital Projects
Reserve Fund. In order to prevent more extensive damage to this important

Ms. Susan Bulla re Ms. Susan Bulla, Director of the Risk Management Department, appeared before the
M&C G-9098 City Council and advised the City Council that the acceptance of $80,750.00 recovered

M&C G-9100 re There was presented Mayor and Council Communication No. G-9100 from the City
rental rates for Manager as follows:
Cowtown Coliseum ' SUBJECT: COWTOWN COLISEUM - RENTAL RATES AND ADMISSION FEES
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Reaffirm the current rental rates for the Cowtown Coliseum (A/K/A
Northside Coliseum) and the adjacent outdoor facilities; and
2. Approve the implementation of the admissions fee for certain specialized
activities, as outlined below.
nTCriKgTnN-
In March of 1988, following the cancellation of the lease agreement with
Stockyards '85, the City assumed responsibility for the operation and
management of the Cowtown Coliseum. At that time it was decided that the
objective of Coliseum use would be to provide active demonstrations of
western heritage events in order to promote tourism and activity in the
Stockyards. Consequently, events were planned during the daytime hours that
were free to the public, based on the assumption that once tourists visited
the Stockyards they would spend money with merchants in the area.
To a large extent, the above objective has been accomplished. One of the
major activities in the Stockyards is the weekly rodeo sponsored by Cowtown
Coliseum, Inc., that is held on Saturdays from April through September of
each year. During the rodeo, the sponsors charge an admission fee and the
City receives a rental fee and concession revenues. In addition to the
rodeo, certain organized activities such as Team Roping, Barrel Racing, Team
Penning and Bull Riding School are held in the Coliseum during the daytime,
evenings and on weekends. There is currently no admission fee associated
with these activities. In order to defray a portion of the operating costs,
it is proposed that an admission fee schedule be implemented.
Proposed Admission Fees
It is proposed that the following admission fee schedule be implemented
effective May 1, 1991:
Daytime admission during times of no activity Free
Daytime admission during organized activities $1.00
Weekday evenings/weekend activities $2.00
Children under 12, accompanied by adult Free
It is staff's opinion that the implementation of this fee schedule will have
little, if any, negative impact on the objective of attracting tourists to
the Stockyards, while at the same time increasing revenues from the
Minutes of City Council R-3 Page 346
M&C G-9100 cont. Coliseum's operation. This proposed fee schedule has been discussed with
organizations and merchants in the Stockyards area.
Rental Rates
On June 7, 1988 (M&C G-7601) the City Council approved preliminary rental
rates for the Cowtown Coliseum. It is recommended that the City Council
reaffirm the rental rates outlined below:
1. Primetime Rates For The Coliseum (Friday Night, Saturday and Sunday)
For -Profit Group $750 or 10% of gross ticket sales, whichever is
greater
Non -Profit Group $500 or 10% of ticket sales, whichever is

2. Non -Primetime Rates For The Coliseum

there are no ticket sales
3. Outdoor Arena

Non -Profit Group $ 50
Non -Prime Time For Profit Group $ 50

Non -Primetime $200
5. General
A. All food and beverage services are handled through the City's
vendor with the City receiving 25% on gross food sales and 28% on
beer and liquor sales.
B. When concessions are sold in the Gazebo and/or Rodeo Plaza by
anyone other than the City's vendor, the City shall receive 25% on
gross food sales and 28% on beer and liquor sales.
C. Lessee shall provide at its expense insurance, security,
stagehand(s) and box office, door and usher personnel.
FINANCING:
No funding will be required.
Council Member Gilley made a motion, seconded by Council Member Chappell, that
Mayor and Council Communication No. G-9100 be approved, as amended, by changing the
$600.00 amount for non-profit group under Prime Time Rates for the Coliseum Friday
Night, Saturday and Sunday to $500.00, if there are not tickets so d, rather than
$600.00. When the motion was put to a vote by the Mayor, it prevailed unanimously.

$11,100,000.00 and, in order to facilitate the timely construction of Green Oaks, staff
recommends that a portion of the allocated PASS funds be transferred from Trinity
Boulevard and Cooks Lane; and recommending that the State Highways and Public

$23,935,461.83.
RArvnPni1Nn
On October 25, 1988 (M&C C-11265), the City Council awarded a construction
contract to T.L. James & Company for Phase II paving, lighting, and drainage
improvements at Alliance Airport in the amount of $19,820,408.70. This
contract has been subsequently amended by Change Orders 1 through 31 so that
it currently stands at $23,900,740.83.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 32:
After the opening of the Airport, the Federal Aviation Administration decided
to relocate and upgrade the interim Air Traffic Control facility. As part of
that upgrade, it requested the City of Fort Worth to relocate the controls
for the airfield lights from the lighting vault to the interim tower under
the existing contract with T.L. James & Company. The City of Fort Worth is
willing to make this modification based upon F.A.A. assurances that the cost
is grant eligible and that Grant No. 2 for Alliance Airport will be amended
to cover this cost. The modification will allow F.A.A. Air Traffic Control
personnel to establish more positive control over airfield light levels. The
proposed change order also provides for some joint sealing on trenches dug to
install electrical cable for taxiway guidance signs. The contractor has
proposed a cost of $33,500 for the lighting controls and $1,221 for 929 L.F.
of joint sealing. These proposed charges have been reviewed by the City&s
Construction Engineer for Alliance, Day -Zimmerman, Inc., and found to be
reasonable.
