City of Fort Worth, Texas
Mayor and Council Communication
UNCIL ACTION: Approved on 10124/2017 - Ordinance Nos. 22974-10-2017 &. 22975-10-
2017
DATE: Tuesday, October 24, 2017 REFERENCE NO.: **L-16088
LOG NAME: 212017LAKEWORTHPLAT
SUBJECT:
Adopt Appropriation Ordinance Increasing Estimated Receipts and Appropriations, in the Amount of
$180,000.00, in the Lake Worth Trust Fund, Authorize the Transfer of Funds to the General Capital
Projects Fund, and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance Increasing Estimated Receipts and Appropriations in
the General Capital Projects Fund, to Provide Funding for the Platting of City-Owned Land Under
Residential Lease Within the Lake Worth Leases Subdivision (COUNCIL DISTRICT 7)
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations, in the
amount of$180,000.00, in the Lake Worth Trust Fund, from available funds, to provide funding for the
platting of City-owned land under residential lease within the Lake Worth Leases subdivision;
2. Authorize a transfer in the amount of$180,000.00 from the Lake Worth Trust Fund to the General
Capital Projects Fund;
3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations, in the
amount of$180,000.00, in the General Capital Projects Fund, from available funds, for the Lake Worth
Platting Project; and
4. Authorize Staff to proceed with platting unplatted residential leased lots surrounding Lake Worth.
DISCUSSION:
In February 2002, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C L-13249), the City offered an Option to
purchase to residential lessees on those properties around Lake Worth that had been platted. While many
of the platted properties sold, there remained some platted lots that did not sell in addition to
approximately 35 surveyed lots within Lake Worth Leases Subdivision that were not platted. These
unplatted properties remain ineligible for sale until they are platted.
On November 8, 2016, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C L-15964), Council again approved the
sale of Lake Worth Leases lots that had been platted and provided for current Lessees of residential
unplatted properties to plat their leased lot at their expense.
Upon further review, staff recommends a revision to the process outlined in November 2016, so that all
remaining unplatted properties at Lake Worth be platted by the City at the City s initial expense and that
reimbursement of the platting expense for each lot be paid by the individual who purchases the property at
the time of the sale. Platting of the remaining unplatted lots at Lake Worth provides for consistency in
approach and assures the completion of the platting process for all unplatted lots in a timely manner.
Other terms and conditions outlined and approved by the City Council, Mayor and Council Communication

(M&C L-15964), remain unchanged for the sale of the residential leased lots within the Lake Worth Leases
Subdivision including the sale of the property at Fair Market Value, compliance with the Lease
Amendment terms and completion of the sale of the property within the proscribed time period.
The properties are located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7.
This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION /CERTIFICATION:

available in the Lake Worth Trust Fund. Prior to an expenditure being made, the participating department
