DI SC USS ION :
The City of Fort Worth 's Department of Economic Development administers the City's Public Improv ement Districts (PIDs). The City's PIO Policy
outlines the need to proactively work with the City's P IO management compan ies to oversee the services being provided within each of the PIDs .
P IO 1 -Downtown (Downtown P IO) is managed by Downtown Fort Worth Inc., (DFWl ).
On September 13 , 2022, City Council adopted Ordinance No . 25710-09-2022 , approving the fiscal year (FY) 2022-2023 Budget, Five-Year
Service Plan , Assessment Plan , and Tax Year 2022 Assessment Roll for the Downtown PIO . After conducting a mid-year review of the
Downtown Pl D's budget, City staff and DFWI has identified the need to increase Downtown PID 's (City of Fort Worth) a ll ocations by $42,087.00 to
account for 1) $424.00 of additiona l payment in-lieu of services and 2) $41,663.00 of additional City payment in -lieu of assessments . The
additional revenue increase wi ll result in a reduction to the original use of the fund balance in the amount of $41,247.00. Expenditure adjustments
can be primarily attrib utable to a rea llocation of landscaping and maintenance operations to the ambassador program to account for inflation.
Two line items listed on the Fi ve-Year Service Plan requ ire a transfer of City funds : (1) the C ity Payment In-Lieu of Services and (2) the City of Fort
Worth Assessment. The City's Payment In -Lieu of Services is a supplement to the PIO budget and intended to provide for the standard level of
improvements and services as comparab le to what would be prov ided by the City for the taxpayers generally . The City of Fort Worth payment in-
lieu of Assessment is an allocation to the P IO budget for assessments the C ity would pay on City-owned properties in the Downtown PIO , if the
C ity was not a tax-exempt entity .
