DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication is to accept a grant in the amount of

in the amount of$1,000,000.00. This grant will provide additional funding for development of the new
Diamond Hill Community Center, to be located at 3709 Weber Street in north Fort Worth.
On September 18, 2018, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 4980-09-2018 authorizing the Park &
Recreation Department (PARD) to apply for an Urban Indoor Recreation Grant from the TPWD. The
application was successful, and on March 20, 2019, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission approved
the issuance of$1,000,000.00 in grant funding to the City of Fort Worth for the development of proposed
improvements at Diamond Hill Community Center.
