This report provides an update on the procurement of a consultant team to provide real estate
market, planning, and community engagement services for future Panther Island development.
The aim is to create a vibrant mixed-use urban waterfront district that will complement
surrounding neighborhoods and advance the economic development efforts of Fort Worth.
City staff issued an RFP on October 13 in collaboration with staff from Tarrant Regional Water
District, Tarrant County, Tarrant County College, Real Estate Council of Greater Fort Worth,
Downtown Fort Worth, Inc., and Streams & Valleys. Six proposals were received by November
10, and an interagency committee will review and select consultants to be interviewed between
November 30 to December 2. Staff intends to update City Council in December on the
recommended consultant and next steps.
For any questions, please contact Dana Burghdoff, Assistant City Manager, at 817-392-8018.
