Division to mark and etch property from citizens and businesses of the city; that an etching
kit and compressor to operate the kit was authorized to be purchased but, after talking with

sent to the Criminal Justice Division; that, according to Criminal Justice Division
guidelines, all equipment items are based on a 50/50 cash match requirement and, to be in

DTSCHSSTON -
On October 16, 1990, the City Council approved M&C C-12552, as amended, which
authorized the City Manager to execute a contract with the Fort Worth Zoological
Association for operation of the Fort Worth Zoo, subject to the City Attorney
obtaining a declaratory judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction
declaring that the contract was not subject to the competitive bid procedures
prescribed by Chapter 252 of the Texas Local Government Code.
Following the City Council's approval of M&C C-12552, there have been further
contract negotiations between the City staff and the Zoological Association
which have resulted in revisions to the subject contract. As a result, the City
staff, including the Department of Law, are of the opinion that a declaratory
judgment as to the applicability of the competitive bid law is no longer
necessary.
Therefore, the City staff recommends that the City Council reconsider and
rescind M&C C-12552, as amended, and thereafter approve the attached contract
and authorize the City Manager to execute the attached contract, without the
requirement that the City Attorney first obtain a declaratory judgment.
FINANCING:
Funds in the amount of $1.5 million have already been approved and are available
in the 1990 - 91 Park and Recreation Department budget to pay the salaries of
City employees assigned to work at the Zoo during the first year of this

to the usual annual budget appropriations for salaries.
