LEASES
CODE: L TYPE: NON-CONSENT PUBLIC NO
HEARING:
SUBJECT: Authorize Administrative Approval and Execution of Leases for Natural Gas Drilling Under
City-Owned Properties of Five Acres or Less in Size
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to approve and execute leases
for natural gas drilling under City-owned properties that are five acres or less in size.
DISCUSSION:
On January 18, 2007, (M&C G-15588) Fort Worth City Council authorized the City Manager to
approve and execute leases for natural gas drilling under City-owned non-park properties that are two
acres or less in size.
From time to time, the City is asked to lease isolated City-owned properties in various locations that
are five acres or less. City staff is recommending that gas leases for these properties be
administratively approved for natural gas drilling leases after evaluation of the gas company's drilling
plan, reputation, financial status, project team and compliance history by staff and the City's mineral
asset management consultant, Midkiff Oil and Gas. The leases would be executed through an
internal administrative process involving the Planning and Development Department, the City
Attorney's Office and the City Manager's Office.
The purpose of this change is to allow staff to negotiate and expedite processing of small leases in
order to ensure that the City is not excluded from units due to the time necessary for City Council
review.
Requirements and guidelines to be followed in determining eligibility for inclusion in the Administrative
Gas Lease Process are as follows:
City-owned property five acres or less;
No surface use of any kind;
No identified adverse impact to the surrounding neighborhood;
Compliance with the City's gas drilling ordinance;
Minimum bonus to be determined by current market rate;
Minimum royalty of 25 percent;
The distribution of lease bonus and royalties will be in accordance with the revenue distribution
policy approved by the City Council; and
No M/WBE goal will be required due to the size of the parcels.
The lease will be presented to City Council for consideration prior to execution for any City owned
properties under five acres if opposition to conversion is expressed by citizens in the
affected neighborhood or a Council Member requests such consideration.
