As the City of Fort Worth(City)has enhanced budgetary and expenditure controls,these requested items seek approval for transparency and
control purposes. Each request has been reviewed by the Budget Division of the Performance and Data Analytics Department and in conjunction
with the Accounting Division of the Financial Management Services Department for accuracy and completeness.
Items addressed in this M&C are as follows:
Recommendations 1 and 2: Tax Note 2020 and General Capital Projects Fund

On May 19,2020,the City Council approved M&C 20-0347 authorizing the execution of a management services agreement(City Secretary
Contract No.54201)with the Botanical Research Institute of Texas, Inc.(BRIT). Effective October 1,2020, BRIT assumed management of the Fort
Worth Botanic Garden(FWBG).
The City has three static construction projects associated with BRIT and the FWBG,which are(i)the South Vista Drainage Improvements, (ii)the
reconstruction and renovation of the Old Garden Road,and(iii)demolition of the existing greenhouse and design and construction of a new
greenhouse with supporting infrastructure and site improvements.The South Vista Drainage project is being deferred to allow for cost increases in
the Old Garden Road Renovation project and the Greenhouse Replacement project.Additional funding is provided from savings in other FWBG
programmable projects.
Approval of Recommendation Nos. 1 and 2 will adjust appropriations between static Botanic Garden projects and adjust appropriations between
the programmable Botanic Garden project and static Botanic Garden projects.

includes a modest contingency.$60,000.00 from PARD Dedication Fees of the Central Business District allocations will be used for the
installation of the artificial turf and padding in the playground area.

Recommendation 4: PARD Gas Lease Capital Project Fund
Community Tree Planting Program Restroom Building
The PARD originally allocated funding in the FY2021 Community Tree Planting Program operating budget to make Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA)-compliant upgrades to the primary greenhouse structure(head house)and associated restroom. However, discussions with the Property
Management Department(PMD)and approved vendors determined that the cost to acquire and install a standalone ADA-accessible restroom
structure was significantly less than retrofitting the existing facilities. PMD recommended two vendors available through cooperative purchasing
agreements,and the chosen supplier, CXT Inc.,offered a product at a price 17%lower than the competitor for the amount of$84,000.00.
Approval of Recommendation 4 will appropriate the remaining project balance.The initial$50,000.00 is included in a transfer out from the
Community Tree Planting Program operating fund to the project.Funds for this project will cover the site preparation, pre-fabricated structure,and
delivery and installation costs.Additionally,the new restroom facility will double the capacity currently available at the head house facility.
