An independent appraisal was performed on the property and the agreed upon acquisition price of $14,119.00 includes administrative and
document preparation fees totaling $1,600.00 and the cost of the survey totaling $2,519.00. The buyer will be responsible for all closing costs
related to this transaction. The City of Fort Worth will retain a permanent 15-foot sanitary sewer easement across the subject property as well as
all mineral interests it may own in conjunction with the property.
