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 dediested-pm*properties under five acres if opposition to conversion is expressed by citizens in the affected neighborhood or a Council Member requests such consideration. http://apps.cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc review.asp?ID=12668&councildate=l1/17/2009 9/14/2012 M&C Review Page 2 of 2 FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
