DISCUSSION:
On October 20, 2020 (M&C 20-0740), Council authorized the City Attorney to intervene in the Northlake-Justin litigation and on November 19,
2020 Fort Worth filed its petition of intervention. The 1997 and 2020 Fort Worth-Northlake agreements are the subject of litigation between
Northlake and Justin. On March 9, 2021, Council approved M&C 21-0172 that authorizes a settlement agreement between Fort Worth, Justin, and
Northlake. Pursuant to settlement agreement, property that was allocated to Northlake in the 1997 and 2020 agreements will be reallocated to
Northlake or Justin as depicted on the attached map. The areas on the map shown as E, G, and H shall be allocated to Justin and the areas shown
as A, B, C, D, F and I shall be allocated to Northlake.
The Interlocal Agreement (ILA) and the Joint Resolution between the parties describes the relevant tracts and sets forth a sequence of events to
effectuate the settlement agreement. The ILA also describes water and sewer service, but this section only affects Justin and Northlake.
The 2020 Fort Worth-Northlake agreement, approved by Council on April 7, 2020, was intended to reaffirm the cities' 1997 land -swap deal to
facilitate the Texas Motor Speedway and to terminate a revenue -sharing provision of that agreement. This agreement must now be amended to
conform to the settlement agreement as depicted by the attached map.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This contract will be with a governmental entity, state agency or public institution of higher education: Town
of Northlake
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that approval of this recommendation will have no material effect on City funds.
