LOG NAME: 80OAKLAND PARK STORM DRAINAGE
SUBJECT:
Conduct Public Hearing and Authorize Use of a Portion of Oakland Lake Park for the Purpose of Installing
Storm Drainage Improvements (COUNCIL DISTRICT 8)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Conduct a public hearing under the guidelines set forth by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Code, Chapter
26, Protection of Public Parks and Recreational Lands;
2. Find that no feasible or prudent alternative exists to the use of Oakland Lake Park for the location of the
proposed storm drainage improvements;
3. Find that the proposed storm drainage improvements include all reasonable planning to minimize harm
to the parkland and will be constructed in Oakland Lake Park as specified on the attached Exhibits and as
noted in the discussion below; and
4. Close the public hearing and authorize the use of approximately 0.20 acres of Oakland Lake Park for
the installation of storm drainage improvements.
. Oakland Lake Park - located at 1645 Lake Shore Drive, Mapsco 64Z, 65W, 78D and 79A, east of
Lake Shore Drive, west of Ederville Road, south of Oakland Place and north of Barnett Street.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication is to authorize the use of approximately 0.20 acres
of Oakland Lake Park for the installation of storm drainage improvements by the City of Fort Worth (City)
Transportation and Public Works (TPW) Department.
The Parks and Community Services Department (PACSD) has been approached by the TPW Department
proposing to install storm drainage improvements in Oakland Lake Park. The purpose of the project is to
provide adequate storm drain capacity to an outfall system in order to reduce flooding along Provine
Street. The project is proposing to install a 42 inch storm drain to the outfall channel in Oakland Lake
Park. Approximately 300 linear feet of storm drainage improvements are being proposed. The width of
the proposed temporary workspace varies from 20 feet to 30 feet. A portion of the outfall will include bank
and channel stabilization to prevent erosion.
The proposed alignment will impact several trees within the channel and the remaining trees will be
protected with tree protection fencing. Trees less than 30 inches in diameter at breast height (dbh)
permitted for removal must be mitigated on an inch - per -inch basis. Mitigation trees must be planted on
City rights -of -way, median or other public land. They must be watered and maintained until established for

a minimum of two years. If mitigation on site is not possible or desirable, mitigation into the City's Tree
Fund will be made in the amount of $200.00 per inch not planted. The City Forester will review the
proposed alignment and assess the proposed mitigation once all plans have been finalized.
Upon completion of this project, the park will be returned to a condition that is at least as good as the one
in which it exists prior to commencement of the project. TPW has also agreed to maintain all of the
drainage structures being installed within the park and will be coordinating with PACSD staff during the
entire construction process.
In accordance with Chapter 26 of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Code, the City seeks to use approximately
0.20 acres of parkland for installation of storm drainage improvements.
On August 22, 2012, the Parks and Community Services Advisory Board endorsed Staffs
recommendation to the City Council to authorize the use of a portion of parkland at Oakland Lake Park for
installation of storm drainage improvements.
In accordance with state law, public notice was advertised in the Fort Worth Star - Telegram on September
25, 2012, October 2, 2012 and October 9, 2012. An Exhibit map was available for public review for 30
days at the PACSD administrative offices located at 4200 South Freeway, Suite 2200.
Signage was posted at the site on October 1, 2012, announcing the proposed use and providing
instructions for directing comments to the PACSD. A letter announcing the proposed use was sent to the
president of the West Meadowbrook Neighborhood Association on October 2, 2012. During the Report of
City Staff, Staff will note any public comment that has been received.
Oakland Lake Park is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8.
