Contract at the Closing for any reason other than termination of this Contract by Purchaser pursuant to a
right so to terminate expressly set forth in this Contract or Seller's failure to perform Seller's obligations

be deemed terminated at the time of the Closing, nor shall they merge into the various documents
executed and delivered at the time of the Closing. All representations and warranties by Seller in this
Contract (i) will expire two years after the Closing as to matters for which Purchaser has not provided
written notice to Seller within such period of time; and (ii) will expire as to all matters specified in any
such written notice to the extent that such matters are not resolved or made the subject of litigation
instituted prior to the expiration of three years after the Closing.

contract between Seller and Purchaser, and no oral statements or prior written matter not specifically
incorporated herein is of any force and effect. No modifications are binding on either party unless set
forth in a document executed by that party.

net square footage of the Property after the taking.

the laws of the State of Texas.

made in Tarrant County, Texas.

Texas if venue is legally proper in that County.

provision, and this Contract will be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had

Program Agreement with Royal Capital, LLC, and/or Related Affiliates for the Development
of the Evans and Rosedale Urban Village as a Mixed-Use Urban Development
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the Execution of Purchase and Sale Agreements for the purchase by the City of 30
lots from the Fort Worth Housing Finance Corporation for the fair market value of
$3,595,977.00 and 5 lots from the Fort Worth Local Development Corporation for the fair
market value of $537,076.00 (All lots located in the Evans and Rosedale Urban Village).
2. Authorize the Execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement sale by the City of 36 lots to
Royal Capital, LLC, and/or related affiliates for $36.00 (All lots located in the Evans and
Rosedale Urban Village).
3. Authorize the Execution of an Economic Development Program Agreement by the City with
Royal Capital, LLC, and/or related affiliates for the development of the Evans and Rosedale
Urban Village mixed-use urban development.
DISCUSSION:
Royal Capital, LLC and/or related affiliates (Developer) intend to develop certain properties owned by
the City of Fort Worth, Fort Worth Housing Finance Corporation, and Fort Worth Local Development
Corporation located in the Evans and Rosedale Urban Village (Project Site) as a mixed-use urban
development. The development will include commercial, retail, and residential units, as well
as parking and enhancements to public spaces (Development) in return for economic development
incentives.
In order to facilitate the Development, the City will purchase 30 lots from the Fort Worth Housing
Finance Corporation for the fair market value of $3,595,977.00 and five (5) lots from the Fort Worth
Local Development Corporation for the fair market value of $537,076.00. The City will cover all the
closing costs for these purchases. The funds for these purchases were appropriated on October 29,
2024, by M&C 24-0936, and were transferred to the General Capital Projects Fund for the Evans-
Rosedale project (City Project No. 105570). The City will then sell these lots along with a single lot
owned by the City of Fort Worth with the fair market value of $112,500.00 to Developer for $1.00 per
lot for a total of $36.00 and a total investment of $4,245,553.00 to help meet the gap in the project
financing. All lots are sold as-is with the payment of all closing costs and related fees by the
Developer. There will be a Deed of Trust on these lots to secure performance as described below.
The City also proposes to enter into an Economic Development Program Agreement (EDPA) with the
Developer to provide up to 20 annual Chapter 380 grants equal to up to 80\% of the incremental
increase from the City's ad-valorem taxes on the real and business personal property at the Project
Site and one-time Pathways to Removing Obstacles to Housing Grant in the amount of $2,500,000.00

(Grant). The combined aggregate value of all EDPA grants will be capped at a gross amount of

1. Live/work unit(s), stacked flats, multi-family units, senior housing;
2. An average rental rate of 60\% Area Median Income (AMI) for the total units, no

place or rehoming of senior residents from the neighborhood.
2. 15,700 square feet of retail and/or office space:
1. 3,000 square feet of the retail space will be marketed to an urban grocer or set

2. All portions of the retail and/or office space that are intended to be occupied
must have a temporary or final Certificate of Occupancy by no later than the
completion deadline.
3. 7,200 square feet of the retail space will be reserved for local commercial

seek approval from the City for a regional tenant or tenant that meets a
neighborhood need alternative, otherwise the developer agrees that the 380
grant for the project shall be reduced by 5\% without this prior approval or
demonstration to the city's satisfaction that a local tenant was sufficiently
sought.
3. 283 parking spaces to assist with traffic control. The parking spaces may consist solely
of, or any combination of, parking garage(s), on-street parking, or surface parking. On

not meet the 15\% BEF construction requirement, developer agrees that the 380 grant
for the project shall be reduced by 10\%. The Developer will, in best faith effort, seek
to exceed this goal; and
6. Cause to employ 30 full-time (FT) local employees during construction with best faith
efforts to hire from the neighborhood. If the developer does not meet the 30 FT local

residential purposes to maintain the public purpose of the Development of providing

restrictions shall apply on the City Lots on which residential rental improvements are
initially being constructed, which improvements are currently anticipated to constitute
approximately 181 total housing units, but not less than 170 units, including a mix of
senior units, family units, stacked flats, and live/work units, with such units subject to

right to repurchase all City Lots for the acquisition price ($36.00).
5. City shall have a right of first refusal to repurchase the City Lots for the price
paid by Developer (totaling $36.00 for 36 lots) in the event Developer seeks to
sell any for any other proposed use inconsistent with the restrictions above,
provided, however, that before City may exercise such right Developer may
extinguish such right of first refusal by paying City the higher of the fair market
