COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 9/21/2010
DATE: Tuesday, September 21, 2010
LOG NAME: 35BGCYOUSAFEHAVEN
REFERENCE NO.: **C-24466
SUBJECT:
Authorize the City Manager to Execute a Contract with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Fort Worth in
the Amount of $276,454.00 to Continue Operation of the Polytechnic Martin Boys and Girls Club and
Kirkpatrick Middle School Youth Safe Haven Programs (COUNCIL DISTRICTS 2 and 8)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract not to exceed $276,454.00 with the Boys and Girls
Clubs of Greater Fort Worth to continue operation of a Youth Safe Haven Program at Polytechnic Martin
Boys and Girls Club and Kirkpatrick Middle School; and
2. Authorize the contract to be extended for up to four one-year periods without further action from City
Council.
DISCUSSION:
The Youth Safe Haven Program began in 1991 as part of a Weed and Seed Grant, which expired
September 30, 2000. Youth Safe Havens are places where children in targeted neighborhoods play and
learn with other children without the fear of beciming victims of crime. The original Safe Haven Program
was first operated in the near Southeast part of Fort Worth and was later expanded to the Diamond Hill
neighborhood. One site is at Polytechnic Martin Boys and Girls Club, located at 3123 Avenue G and the
other is at Kirkpatrick Middle School, located at 3201 Refugio Avenue, Fort Worth, Texas.
On October 9, 2001, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute a contract for the continued
operation of the Youth Safe Haven Program to be operated by the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Fort
Worth and the program has continued through Fiscal Year 2010. This Mayor and Council Communication
will authorize the program to continue through Fiscal Year 2011 and for four additional years through
Fiscal Year 2015 without further action by City Council. Funding in the amount of $276,454.00 has been
appropriated in the Fiscal Year 2011 Crime Control and Prevention District (CCPD) budget, as
adopted. The program provides youth with quality programs in character/leadership, educational
activities, cultural arts, health/life skills and recreation. Program staff addresses additional educational,
social, psychological and physical needs youth may experience. The program's focus and goal is to
change lives by caring for the "whole child". This approach provides youth the tools they need to become
responsible adults.
Polytechnic Martin Safe Haven is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8 and the Kirkpatrick Middle School is
located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
FISCAL INFORMATION /CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating
budget, as appropriated, of the Crime Control and Prevention District Fund.
