Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing the estimated receipts and appropriations in Future Improvements Projects of the Special Assessments Fund in the amount of$149,000 from Bevel contributions; 2. Authorize the transfer of$149,000.00 from the Special Assessments Fund to the Street Improvemei Fund; 3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Improvements Fund in the amount of$149,000.00 from developer contributions; 4. Find that the price offered in the amount of$149,000 is just compensation; and 5. Authorize the City Manager to acquire six platted lots described as Lots 13-18, Block 2, Mission Rid Estates Subdivision for an estimated amount of$149,000.00, located on Harney Drive, for the future extension of Wichita Street, and execute and record appropriate instruments. DISCUSSION: On August 1, 2005, Community Facilities Agreement (CFA) # 2005036 was executed and provided $149,000.00 from the Mission Companies as a developer contribution for future paving improvements adjacent to Mission Ridge Estates Subdivision, Phase III. This subject acquisition is required in order to obtain right-of-way for the future arterial street improver identified on the Master Thoroughfare Plan (MTP). McPherson Road abuts Mission Ridge Estates Subdivision, Phase III, on the southside of the property. Wichita Street abuts Mission Ridge Estates Subdivision on the eastside of the property. Wichita Street is a major arterial on the Master Thoroughf� Plan (MTP) that will ultimately become a 4-lane divided roadway requiring 110' of right-of-way. The subdivision plat process, infrastructure plan review process, community facility agreement process the Master Thoroughfare Plan (MTP) process work in concert to insure implementation of the city's development policies, procedures and ordinances. However, in this particular case, staff failed to insu http://www.fortworthgov.org/council_packet/mc review.asp?ID=5 849&councildate=7/11/... 7/17/2006 Online City Council Agenda Page 2 of 2 conformity between the various review and approval processes and the subdivision plat instrument. A: result, the City failed to secure the right-of-way, for Wichita Street, required by the Master Thoroughfar (MTP). To avoid this administrative oversight in the future the following procedures will be implemented. First, development review process will be revised by requiring the applicant, upon submittal of infrastructure to include an official statement that the final plat and plans conform to the preliminary plat as approved Planning Commission. This statement will also need to include the preliminary plat case number and approval date. Secondly, city staff reviewing infrastructure plans will be required to verify that the final submitted with the plans does conform to the approved preliminary plat. If it does not, the plans will be returned to the consultant/engineer and a re-submittal will be required. With respect to Mission Ridge Estates and the MTP alignment for Wichita Street, staff finds that the recommended alternative of acquiring six platted lots from Mission Ridge has the least impact on adjac property owners as well as on the City's finances, because the previously escrowed CFA funds for futu improvements to McPherson Road will be used to purchase the right-of-way for Wichita Street. The on other real option is deleting this section of Wichita Street from the MTP, however, this is not recommen staff as this would have significant, negative impacts on regional mobility in this area. The lots that will be purchased are described as: Lots 13-18, Block 2, Mission Ridge Estates Subdivision. The property is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that upon adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances and comple" the above recommendations, funds will be available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of tf Street Improvements Fund.
