DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to request authorization to enter
into an agreement with Colonial Country Club (Colonial) for the use of a portion of Forest Park.
On December 17, 2002, (M&C C-19397) the City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into an
agreement (City Secretary Contract (CSC) No. 28453) with Colonial authorizing the use of a portion of
Forest Park for the purpose of providing ancillary services and related activities for its annual golf
tournament. Under the agreement, Colonial paid annual amounts of $25,000.00, of which $2,500.00
went to the City of Fort Worth (City) and $22,500.00 went to Streams & Valleys, Inc. (S&V). The City
also executed a related agreement with S&V to control the use of the funds paid to S&V, earmarking
those funds for park and trail improvements along the Trinity River.
On April 9, 2013, the City and Colonial amended and restated the agreement to continue their
relationship. The term of the agreement consisted of ten annual license periods of 45 consecutive
days from May 1st to June 15th of each calendar year commencing in 2013, with options to renew on
an annual basis by mutual written agreement. The Park & Recreation Department (PARD) and
Colonial further agreed to increase the license payments in conjunction with the amendment and
restatement. The annual payment for the period 2013-2017 was $27,675.00 and for the period 2018-
2022 annual payment was $29,500.00. Payment was then disbursed between the City and S&V as
follows:

On February 6, 2014, the parties administratively amended the agreement to revise the dates under
which the 45-day license period would commence to help provide Colonial with the necessary lead
time required for event set-up (CSC No. 28453-A1A2). Additionally, Colonial requested that the
license period be extended from 45 consecutive days to 60 consecutive days between April 1 st and
June 30th of each calendar year for the remaining term of the agreement (commencing with the 2015
golf tournament).
Colonial has requested a new license agreement between the City and Colonial effective July 1, 2022
and expiring on June 30, 2032, with the option to renew for two successive five-year terms. In line
with the new license agreement, a new corresponding agreement between the City and S&V will be
entered into. The license fee for the initial term shall be $30,975.00 per year for the first five -years and
$32,524.00 per year for the second five -years and a five percent increase to the annual license fee for
each five-year renewal term. Payment shall be disbursed between the City and S&V as follows:
