DISCUSSION:
In February of 2004 the City of Fort Worth entered into a lease agreement with Clendenen Development
Company to lease approximately 56,784 square feet of unimproved land on the east side of Fort Worth
Spinks Airport. Before Clendenen Development Company could begin construction the City of Fort Worth
needed to complete the extension of water and sewer infrastructure to the area. Aviation staff worked with
the Water Department to complete the work with the understanding that the cost of the work would be paid
to the Water Department through the monthly water bill. The original cost of the extension was $125,749.08.
To date the Aviation Department has paid $30,303.77 leaving a balance of $95,445.31.
In July 1998 water and sewer was extended to 13825 Wing Way for T-Hangars developed by Kimball Inc.
The original cost of the extension was $58,831.00. To date the Aviation Department has paid $25,003.26
leaving a balance of $33,827.74. This brings the total due to the Water Department to $129,273.05.
In July of 2007 the City entered into an agreement with Harrison Aviation to manage the fuel farm located at
Spinks Airport. The fuel farm was in need of upgrades in order to bring it up to the current EPA
standards. Harrision Aviation agreed to complete the upgrades with an understanding that the City would
reimburse all cost associated to the project. The total cost of the the upgrades is $26,246.
Since these projects are of a capital nature, staff recommends that these debts be satisfied using available
revenue in the Aviation Improvements Capital Project Fund. This will eliminate these expenses from our

annual operating budget and the associated interest expense for the debts.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
