DISCUSSION: On September 14, 2010, (M&C L-15044) the City Council authorized the conversion of Lincolnshire Park for subsurface drilling and the extraction of natural gas from an off site location. A Request for Bid Proposals (RFP) for Lincolnshire Park was advertised for three consecutive weeks in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, published on January 20, 2011, January 27, 2011 and February 3, 2011. The following sealed bid for the gas lease was received and opened on February 10, 2010. Bidder Lease Bonus/Acre Total Lease Bonus Percent ,Royalty Chesapeake Exploration, LLC $3,526.00 $23,201.08 25.00 percent The bid received was evaluated by staff. In addition to the lease bonus rate and royalties paid to the City, the bidder's drilling plan, reputation, financial status, project team and compliance history were also evaluated. Timely award and execution of this lease will allow for inclusion of these properties in the drilling unit currently being formed. The City has established a Minority/Women Business Enterprise (M/WBE) participation goal of three percent on City-owned property of 40 acres or more without an investment goal.
