Authorize the City Manager to execute Supplemental Agreement No. 1 to City Secretary Contract No. 2844 with the United States of America, Army Corps of Engineers (COE) for the restoration of the grounds at the former Van Zandt Army Reserve Training Center; and 2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the General Fund by $10,832 in FY2002-2003, subject to receipt of payment from COE. DISCUSSION: On November 14, 1952, the City of Fort Worth entered into a lease with COE for the Van Zandt Army Reserve Training Center. The lease was for one-year with automatic one-year extensions until June 30, 2003. In April 2000, per the terms of the lease agreement, the COE notified City staff of their intent to terminate the lease. The lease terms give the City the option of requiring the property to be restored by the COE to as good condition as existed at the time of entering into the lease. Various departmental staff members conducted inspections of the facilities to assess the conditions of the buildings and property. It was determined that it would be in the City's best interest to require the COE to have the structures demolished and restored to preexisting conditions. On August 9, 2001, a letter was sent to the Mayor and City Council outlining the condition of the buildings and property. The COE has demolished the structure and in its opinion, restored the premises to the standards as required under the lease. The Parks and Community Services Department does not concur with the COE's assessment. Based on information provided by the Parks and Community Services Department, the COE determined that it would cost $21,664 to restore the site as requested. At the request of COE, City staff entered into negotiations with the COE to reduce the restoration cost. The Parks and Community Services Department and the COE agreed that the COE would provide the necessary funds to purchase the materials to restore the site and the Parks and Community Services Department would provide the labor and oversee the restoration of the site for a total cost of$10,832. Once funds are received from the COE, the lease will be terminated with the COE and the City thereafter will be relieved from any further responsibility under the lease terms.
