WORTH, TX between City of Fort Worth and Waterview Estates,L.P, City of Fort Worth, Texas Mayor and Council Communication COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 11/16/2010 DATE: Tuesday,November 16,2010 REFERENCE NO.: **C-24591 LOG NAME: 17WEBAMEND3 SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of Amendment No. 3 to City Secretary Contract No. 33575,an Enhanced Community Facilities Agreement with Waterview Estates,L.P.,for Extension of the Project Deadline to December 31, 2014(COUNCIL DISTRICT 5) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 3 to City Secretary Contract No. 33575,an Enhanced Community Facilities Agreement with Waterview Estates,L.P., for extension of the project deadline to December 31,2014. DISCUSSION: On March 21, 2006, the City Council authorized the execution of an Enhanced Community Facilities Agreement (ECFA) with Waterview Estates, L.P., pursuant to which Waterview Estates, L.P. (Developer) agreed to the installation of storm drainage facilities for the development of Waterfront at Enchanted Bay residential development in east Fort Worth (M&C C-21358). Under the ECFA, Developer would be reimbursed for the costs of these public improvements on a sliding scale,equal to 10 percent of the costs for every 15 single—family homes constructed by Developer. Full reimbursement, therefore, would not be received unless 150 single—family homes were constructed. The ECFA would expire on June 2,2008. Due to unforseen delays in constructing the development,the Developer twice requested an extension of the ECFA's expiration date. On June 10,2008,the City Council authorized execution of Amendment No. 1 to the ECFA extending the expiration date from June 2, 2008 to June 2, 2011, with a requirement that at least 60 homes be completed by June 2, 2009 (M&C C-22842). On March 10, 2009 (M&C C-23391), the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to delete the requirement that at least 60 homes be completed by June 2, 2009. All other terms of the agreement remained intact, including the continuing right of the City to terminate the CFA if 150 single—family homes were not substantially completed by June 2,2011. In October of 2010, Developer approached the City to request an additional extension of the completion deadline in order to meet agreement commitments. The economic downtown has had a negative impact on the ability to complete the project within the required time frame. The original home builder on the project filed for bankruptcy as a result of the slow down in home sales. Additionally the development suffered from the frequent theft of construction materials once the project slow down occurred. These issues have created an obstacle for the developer in securing a new home builder for the project. Consequently,the developer is considering gating off the subdivision and making the streets private in order to make the development more secure. This option is currently being discussed with existing homeowners. The time extension being requested is to allow this process to be completed so that a new builder can be secured. The Developer has built thirty—one homes and is preparing to aggressively initiate the new building program to finish Phase One of the development. The request calls for an amendment to the ECFA to extend the completion deadline to December 31, 2014. All other terms and conditions of the agreement would remain in effect. This new schedule would require approximately thirty—six houses a year to be completed in order to receive the full ECFA funding. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 5. FISCAL INFORMATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
