COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 12/11/2007 -Ord. No. 17916-12-2007
DATE: Tuesday, December 11, 2007
LOG NAME: 06ADOPTAX007004 REFERENCE NO.: PZ-2766
SUBJECT:
Adopt Ordinance for the City Initiated Annexation of Approximately 7.9 Acres of Land in Tarrant
County, Texas, Located South of W.J. Boaz Road and East of Boat Club Road (AX-07-004, 6900
Block of Boat Club Road)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council consider the adoption of an ordinance annexing approximately 7.9
acres of land in Tarrant County, Texas, located south of W.J. Boaz Road and east of Boat Club Road (AX-
07-004, 6900 Block of Boat Club Road).
DISCUSSION:
On October 9, 2007, (M&C G-15917) the City Council approved the timetable for the full purpose
annexation of the above referenced property into the City of Fort Worth. Public hearings concerning the
annexation request were held as required by state law on October 30 and November 6, 2007. The City
Council approved the institution of the annexation on November 27, 2007. The adoption of the attached
ordinance completes the annexation process.
The subject property is situated within the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City of Fort Worth, at the
southeast corner of the Robertson Road and Boat Club Road intersection. The property is entirely
surrounded by the City of Fort Worth. The land currently contains overhead electrical transmission lines,
one gas well, and two vacant residential structures. No immediate plans for development are noted.
The fiscal impact analysis shows that the property and improvements will provide a cumulative positive
impact to the General Fund beginning with the first year of annexation.
The Police Department has estimated an impact of $255 and other General Fund services and costs have
been estimated at an impact of $244, due to anticipated calls for service to the proposed annexation area in
the first year, which will be offset by revenues generated.
If annexed, this property will become a part of COUNCIL DISTRICT 7.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget of the various city
departments, as appropriated in the General Fund.
