DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and City Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize amendments to three contracts associated with Phase 2 of the
expansion of the Fort Worth Convention Center (FWCC). The expansion project is being accomplished in finro major phases. Phase 1 includes the
construction of new state-of-the-art food & beverage facilities, demolition of the east annex, straightening of Commerce Street (to create a site for
a future convention hotel) and building new covered loading docks. Construction for Phase 1 started in summer 2023 and it is approximately 80%
complete. In the spring of 2024 voters and Council approved an increase in the hotel occupancy tax rate (M&C 24-0312) to fund Phase 2 of the
expansion. Phase 2 will replace the arena with additional exhibit halls, ballroom, meeting rooms, and refurbish the existing facility.
Broaddus & Associates, Inc. is providing project management services for Phases 1 and 2. Broaddus & Associates, Inc's original cost for the
Phase 2 effort was $2,816,388.00. M&C 23-0930 authorized execution of Amendment No. 2 to the agreement with Broaddus & Associates, Inc.,
in the amount of $556,158.00, for services associated with the renovation of the Fort Worth Water Gardens. Having only completed a portion of the
work ($156,264.23), Park & Recreation Department (PARD) elected to administratively terminate the services with Broaddus & Associates, Inc. to
manage the project internally. Terminating the contract with PARD reduces the funds required for Phase 2 by $399,893.77; making the revised
amount for Amendment No. 4. $2,416,489.23 for a total contract value of $6,585,964.23.
Thompson, Ventulett, Stainback & Associates, Inc. is providing design services. Amendment No. 5 to the Professional Services Agreement with
Thompson, Ventulett, Stainback & Associates, Inc., in the Amount Up to $26,000,000.00 will provide these additional Phase 2 design services for
a Total Contract Value of $39,441,818.00.
HunUByrne/Smith, a Joint Venture, is the construction team. Amendment No. 4 to the Construction Manager at Risk Contract with
HunUByrne/Smith, a Joint Venture, in the Amount Up to $15,423,251.00, will provide some construction and ordering of long lead items, for a Total
Contract Value of $102,175,386.00. As designs progress, there will be future M&C's to address the balance of the cost of construction.

costs. Funding is budgeted in the Spcial Tax Rev Bnd Serie 20256 Fund for the Public Events Department for the purpose of funding the ARPA
FWCC Expansion & Prj Mgmt project, as appropriated.This M&C authorizes $43,839,740.23 of the current total project budget of
$155,239,047.12.
