I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This semiannual report was prepared by the Fort Worth Water Department staff
and adopted by the Capital Improvements Plan Citizen's Advisory Committee
("CAC"). The purpose of this report is to advise the City Council, in accordance with
Chapter 395, Local Government Code, of the progress of the Capital Improvements
Plan and any inequities found in implementing or imposing the impact fee program.
This report and subsequent semiannual reports by the CAC will provide a historical
record of the administration and implementation of the impact fee program of the
City of Fort Worth.
The state statute governing impact fees, Chapter 395 of the Local Government
Code, requires that the Land Use Assumptions and the Capital Improvements Plan
be updated at least every five years and that the impact fee ordinance be amended
as necessary to reflect any changes.
On January 12, 2016, the Fort Worth City Council approved retaining Freese and
Nichols, Inc., to update and amend the Land Use Assumptions, and the Capital
Improvements Plan. On December 6, 2016, the city council approved Ordinance No.
22525-12-2016, effective April 1, 2017, which updated the Water and Wastewater
Land Use Assumptions and Capital Improvements Plan and provided for water and
wastewater impact fees per service units. The new Ordinance, water and
wastewater impact fee schedules and Capital Improvements Plan can be referenced
in Appendix A.
This document reports on the impact fees collected through June 30, 2021 and the
revised impact fee schedules are updated in this semi-annual impact fee report.
The CAC has evaluated the status of the Land Use Assumptions and the progress
of the Capital Improvements Plan. The evaluation found that adequate progress is
being made to implement the capital Improvements program for providing facilities
required to meet development demands.
Included in this report are tables comparing the variance in status and costs of projects
as proposed in December 2016 to the current status (for informational purposes
only). In addition, an analysis of impact fee collections is included in this report
for the period beginning with the effective date of the ordinance of June 11, 1990,
through June 30, 2021.

City Council:

this time.
