DISCUSSION :
The City of Fort Worth 's Department of Economic Development administers the City's Public Improvement Districts (PIDs). The City's PIO Policy
outlines the need to proactively work with the City 's PIO management companies to oversee the services being provided within each of the PIDs .
PIO 18 -Tourism (Tourism PIO) is managed by Fort Worth Tourism Public Improvement District Corporation (FWTPIDC) and the Fort Worth
Convention and Visitors Bureau (FWCVB).
On September 13 , 2022 , City Council adopted Ordinance No . 25724-09-2022 , approving the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022-2023 Budget, Five-Year
Service Plan , Assessment Plan , and Tax Year 2022 Assessment Roll for the Tourism PIO. After conducting a mid -year review of the Tourism Pl D's
budget, City staff and FWTPIDC and FWCVB have identified the need to increase the Tourism PIO Budget by $2 ,895 ,000 .00 to align expenses
with actual activities that are attributable primarily to revised assessment collection forecast for the current fiscal year and to reclaim additional
revenue from prior fiscal year over the adopted budget allocation.
The Tourism PIO is funded through a 2% assessment on the consideration received from occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel in
the Tourism PIO . Due to the most recent forecast analysis , Tourism PIO assessment revenue is now projected to be 14 .57 % or $795 ,000 .00 more
than originally budgeted . The additional increase of $2 ,100,000 .00 will be a contribution to fund balance as a result of additional revenue from the
prior fiscal year. The budgeted expenses show an increase in each category line item for the current fiscal year service plan (see table below).
