NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS: 1. Recitals. The findings set forth in the recitals of this Resolution are found to be true and correct. 2. Findings. The City Council, after duly considering the evidence and testimony presented at the Public Hearings and based on all information known by the City Council, hereby makes the following findings: 2.1 Petition and Boundaries. (a)The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Act consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. The lists of the original and additional hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID are included in the Establishing Resolution and Expansion Resolutions, respectively. (b)As set forth in the Recitals above, the Act allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if the required elements are satisfied. As evidenced below, the hotel property set forth in Exhibit “A”, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes (“Additional Hotel Properties”), meets the necessary elements for inclusion into the Tourism PID. (i)The Additional Hotel Properties to be included in the Tourism PID as part of this Resolution are hotel properties. (ii)A sufficient number of record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the Tourism PID or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. Specifically, the number of consenting record owners exceeds the thresholds required by the Act, which is evidenced by the following: (1) 86.30% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, (2) 69.84% of record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment, and (3) 72.04% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. 2.2 Advisability and Feasibility of the Improvements and Services Proposed for the Tourism PID. It is advisable to expand the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property to provide the proposed improvements and services described in the Petition and this Resolution. The improvements and services will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the Tourism PID. The Fort Worth Convention and Visitor’s Bureau staff performed an analysis of the Tourism PID, its service plan and strategies, and concluded that it provides a very effective means for significantly enhancing the ability of Fort Worth to promote its hotel, convention, and tourism activity, which has been borne out since the Tourism PID’s establishment. Based on this analysis and the successful history of the Tourism PID, the City finds the proposed tourism public improvement district to be both advisable and feasible. 2.3 Nature of the Improvements and Services. The general nature of the proposed improvements and services to be provided within the expanded boundaries of Tourism PID include, without limitation, marketing, business recruitment, and promotional activities authorized by the Act for improvements and promotion of the Tourism PID, including, but not limited to, the provision of incentives by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to organizations to encourage them to bring large and city-wide events (including, without limitation, meetings, sporting, recreation, and cultural events) to Fort Worth and to fund additional marketing by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to increase hotel stays within the City. 2.4 Estimated Cost of the Improvements and Services. Over the two (2) year period beginning on October 1, 2025, and ending on the expiration of the Tourism PID as provided in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution, the estimated total cost of the improvements and services to be provided by the Tourism PID will be $216,000,000.00, which includes a revised estimated cost of $8,000,000.00 for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. For the 2025-2026 fiscal year, the revised estimated costs of the below-referenced improvements and services, and estimated costs to implement such improvements and services are: Incentives and Sales Efforts $4,687,550 Marketing and Research (Promotion/Advertising) $2,224,600 Site Visits & Familiarization Tours $ 119,175 Cultural Enhancements through Marketing and Promotion of the Arts $595,875 Operations and Administration 317,800 City Administrative Fee $55,000 Total $8,000,000 On September 16, 2025, the City Council adopted the fiscal year 2025-2026 budget and two-year service plan, the same being Ordinance No. 272996-09-2025. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property will not affect the adopted budget. Such costs will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. The full two- year service plan is attached to the resolution approving the amended budget and two-year service plan that is being considered at the same time as this resolution. 2.5. Method of Assessment. The costs of the improvements and services will be funded from assessments levied on and collected from properties located in the Tourism PID that contain hotels of one hundred (100) or more guest rooms and that are subject to payment of City hotel occupancy taxes pursuant to Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The City will levy a special assessment against the new hotel property located within the expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID (“Hotel Parcel”) in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the consideration received for occupancy of any sleeping rooms furnished by the new hotel on the Hotel Parcel (subject to any lawful exemption of the hotel occupancy tax under applicable state law and City ordinances), with such assessments to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City’s hotel occupancy tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The collection of assessments will begin on the earliest date allowed by the Act and continue to be collected at the same time hotel occupancy taxes are collected. The City Council hereby finds that the proposed method of assessment is reasonable and necessary. 2.6 Apportionment of Costs Between the Tourism PID and the City, as a Whole. The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID, inclusive of the Additional Hotel Property, and the City, as a whole, is as follows: (a)The entire cost of each improvement and service will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. (b)No City funds will be used to pay any portion of the cost of any improvement or service, unless such funding is approved from the City Council or other appropriate municipal authority on a case-by-case basis. 3. Inclusion of Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID; Term. Based on the findings set forth above, the City Council authorizes the expansion of the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID takes effect on the date on which this Resolution is adopted by the City Council and will expire concurrently with the expiration date set forth in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution. The expansion of the Tourism PID is subject to all conditions, limitations, and reservations set forth in the findings in Sections 1 and 2. All other provisions of this Resolution will be effective from and after adoption of this Resolution. 4. Advisory Body. The City Council hereby declines to appoint an advisory body for the expanded Tourism PID boundaries pursuant to Section 372.008 of the Act. The City Council hereby reserves the right to assign responsibility for preparation of the ongoing service plan for the PID to another entity in the absence of such an advisory body, as authorized by Section 372.013(a) of the Act.

Over the two (2) year period beginning on October 1, 2025, and ending on the expiration of the Tourism PID as provided in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution, the estimated total cost of the improvements and services to be provided by the Tourism PID will be $15,750,000.00, which includes a revised estimated cost of $7,750,000.00 for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. For the 2025-2026 fiscal year, the revised estimated costs of the below -referenced improvements and services, and estimated costs to implement such improvements and services are: Incentives and Sales Efforts $4,540,050 Marketing and Research (Promotion/Advertising) $2,154,600 Site Visits & Familiarization Tours $ 115,425 Cultural Enhancements through Marketing and Promotion of the Arts $577,125 Operations and Administration $307,800 City Administrative Fee $55,000 Total $7,750,000 On September 17, 2024, the City Council adopted the fiscal 2024-2025 budget and three-year service plan, the same being Ordinance No. 27176-09-2024.On May 13, 2025, the City Council adopted a revised fiscal 2024-2025 budget and three-year service plan, the same being Ordinance No. 27648-05-2025.The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property will not affect the adopted budget.

Tourism to Include One Additional Hotel Property; Find for the Sufficiency of the Attached Petition Requesting Expansion of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism; and Adopt the Resolution Authorizing and Expanding the Fort Worth Public Improvement District No. 18 - Tourism to Include the Additional Hotel Property (PUBLIC HEARING - a. Staff Available for Questions: Holly Fortes; b. Public Comment; c. Council Action: Close Public Hearing and Act on the M&C) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Conduct a public benefit hearing concerning the expansion of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism to include one additional hotel property; 2. Find that the attached petition requesting inclusion into the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism meets the requirements set forth in Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code; 3. Adopt the attached Resolution: (i) making certain findings concerning the nature and advisability of special improvements and services to be provided for the benefit of the additional hotel to be included in the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism, the estimated costs of such improvements and services, the method of assessment, the boundaries of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism, and the apportionment of costs between the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism and the City, as a whole, and (ii) authorizing and expanding the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 —Tourism to include one (1) additional hotel; and 4. Direct the City Secretary to publish notice of the expansion of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism as required by Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code. DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to expand the boundaries of Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 - Tourism (Tourism PID) through the inclusion of one (1) additional hotel property. On August 29, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 4837-08-2017, establishing the Tourism PID (Establishing Resolution). The City Council subsequently adopted Resolution Nos. 5264-08-2020 (August 18, 2020), 5382-04-2021 (April 13, 2021), 5467-09-2021 (September 14, 2021), 5561-04-2022 (April 12,2022), 5958-05-2024 (May 14,2024), and 6098-05-2025 (May 15, 2025) expanding the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include additional hotel properties (Expansion Resolutions). Expansion of the Tourism PID Boundaries and Petition: The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Texas Local Government Code (Code) consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. A list of the hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID is included in the Original and Expansion Resolutions and attached hereto. Senate Bill (SB) 804, 87th Texas Legislature (2021), which went into effect on June 14, 2021, revised Section 372.0121 of the Code to clarify the ability of cities to add new hotels into an existing Tourism PID. One of the new provisions affects the way in which the City calculates (or recalculates) the percentage threshold for adding new hotels into the Tourism PID. SB 804 requires the City to update and recalculate each of the percentage thresholds set forth below every time a new hotel property is added to the Tourism PID. Conversely, the prior version of Section 372.0121 only required the City to calculate the impact that the new hotel property had on the pre-existing thresholds. For example, under SB 804, the City has to update and recalculate the appraised value of each and every existing property in the Tourism PID each time that a new hotel is added; whereas, under the prior legislation, the City simply carried forward the values of the existing hotel properties from the year the hotel properties entered into the Tourism PID. Section 372.0121, as revised, allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (ii) a sufficient number of the record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the district or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. The number of consenting record owners is sufficient if (1) the record owners own more than 60% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID; and either (i) constitute more than 60% of all record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID, or (ii) own, in aggregate, more than 60% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID. If the addition of the new properties results in these numbers dropping at or below the 60% threshold, then the properties may not be added. Inclusion of the Nobleman Hotel, located at 503 Bryan Ave., Fort Worth, Texas 76104, meets the above -stated elements and, therefore, may be considered by the City Council for inclusion into the Tourism PID. First, the Nobleman Hotel is a hotel property. With regard to the second element, the property owner, or its duly authorized representatives, for the Nobleman Hotel, signed a petition requesting inclusion within the Tourism PID. This results in an increase to 85.78% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, 72.71 % of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment, and 68.33% of record owners liable for assessment. These figures remain above the statutory threshold of 60.00%, thereby meeting the required conditions for the adjustment of the Tourism PID's composition. Nature of the Improvements: The goals of the Tourism PID focus on increasing the economic impact and enhancing competitiveness in conventions, meetings, leisure and sports tourism and increasing tourism -related economic activity at all times, including during economic downturns and as inventory grows. The Tourism PID projects include incentives and sales efforts, convention and sports marketing and promotion, site visits and familiarization tours, community arts grants, convention services, event funding application, operations, research, and administration, all of which benefit the hotels within the Tourism PID. Method of Assessment and Apportionment of Costs: The assessment rate will be an amount equal to 2.00% of the consideration received from the occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel located within the Tourism PID, with such assessment to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for the collection of the City's Hotel Occupancy Tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The entire costs of each improvement and service will be paid from the above -stated assessments and no City funds will be used to pay any portion of such costs unless such funding is approved by the City Council on a case -by -case basis. Estimated Costs of the Improvements and Services: The total estimated costs for the proposed services and improvements for the life of the Tourism PID (approximately two years) will be $15,750,000.00, which includes an estimated cost of $7,750,000.00 for the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Budget. Assessments will begin on October 1, 2025. Advisability: Staff recommends that the City Council find that these improvements and services are advisable because they will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the expanded boundary of the Tourism PID. Upon the close of the public hearing, staff recommends that the City Council declare the petition to expand the Tourism PID to include the one additional hotel property to be sufficient and adopt the attached Resolution making findings concerning the following and expanding the Tourism PID: • The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID and the City, as whole; • The proposed method of assessment; • The expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID; • The estimated costs of the proposed improvements and services; • The general nature of the proposed improvements and services; and • The advisability of expanding the Tourism PID. Upon adoption of the Resolution, the Nobleman will be included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID, effective on the date that City Council's authorization to expand the Tourism PID has been published in a newspaper of general circulation and will expire on the date set forth in the Original Resolution. The City Council will hold two public hearings to consider the proposed budget, plan of service, and levy of assessments against property within the Tourism PID, which will be held during the regular City Council meetings on Tuesday, August 26, 2025 at 10:00 A.M., and Tuesday, September 16, 2025 at 6:00 P.M. The City Council is expected to take final action and vote on the proposed budget, plan of service, and levy of assessments following the close of the hearing on September 16, 2025. Notice of this public hearing was published in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram and mailed to the appropriate property owners on August 8, 2025, which complies with the notice requirements under the Act. These properties are located in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS. A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that approval of these recommendations will have no material effect on City funds.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS: I. Recitals. The findings set forth in the recitals of this Resolution are found to be true and correct. 2. Findings. The City Council, after duly considering the evidence and testimony presented at the Public Hearings and based on all information known by the City Council, hereby makes the following findings: 2.1 Petition and Boundaries. (a) The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Act consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. The lists of the original and additional hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID are included in the Establishing Resolution and Expansion Resolutions, respectively. (b) As set forth in the Recitals above, the Act allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if the required elements are satisfied. As evidenced below, the hotel property set forth in Exhibit "A", which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes ("Additional Hotel Property"), meets the necessary elements for inclusion into the Tourism PID. (i) The Additional Hotel Property to be included in the Tourism PID as part of this Resolution is a hotel property. (ii) A sufficient number of record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the Tourism PID or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. Specifically, the number of consenting record owners exceeds the thresholds required by the Act, which is evidenced by the following: (1) 81.79% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, (2) 67.80% of record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment, and (3) 70.39% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. 2.2 Advisability and Feasibility of the Improvements and Services Proposed for the Tourism PID. It is advisable to expand the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property to provide the proposed improvements and services described in the Petition and this Resolution. The improvements and services will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the Tourism PID. The Fort Worth Convention and Visitor's Bureau staff performed an analysis of the Tourism PID, its service plan and strategies, and concluded that it provides a very effective means for significantly enhancing the ability of Fort Worth to promote its hotel, convention, and tourism activity, which has been borne out since the Tourism PID's establishment. Based on this analysis and the successful history of the Tourism PID, the City finds the proposed tourism public improvement district to be both advisable and feasible. 2.3 Nature of the Improvements and Services. The general nature of the proposed improvements and services to be provided within the expanded boundaries of Tourism PID include, without Iimitation, marketing, business recruitment, and promotional activities authorized by the Act for improvements and promotion of the Tourism PID, including, but not Iimited to, the provision of incentives by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to organizations to encourage them to bring large and city-wide events (including, without limitation, meetings, sporting, recreation, and cultural events) to Fort Worth and to fund additional marketing by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to increase hotel stays within the City. 2.4 Estimated Cost of the Improvements and Services. Over the three (3) year period beginning on October 1, 2024, and ending on the expiration of the Tourism PID as provided in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution, the estimated total cost of the improvements and services to be provided by the Tourism PID will be $24,190,000.00, which includes a revised estimated cost of $7,750,000.00 for the 2024-2025 fiscal year. For the 2024-2025 fiscal year, the revised estimated costs of the below -referenced improvements and services, and estimated costs to implement such improvements and services are: Incentives and Sales Efforts $3,962,925 Marketing and Research (Promotion/Advertising) $2,693,250 Site Visits & Familiarization Tours $ 153,900 Cultural Enhancements through Marketing and Promotion of the Arts $577,125 Operations and Administration $307,800 City Administrative Fee $55,000 Total $7,750,000 On September 17, 2024, the City Council adopted the fiscal 2024-2025 budget and three-year service plan, the same being Ordinance No. 27176-09-2024. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property will not affect the adopted budget. Such costs will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. The full three-year service plan is attached to the resolution approving the amended budget and three-year service plan that is being considered at the same time as this resolution. 2.5. Method of Assessment. The costs of the improvements and services will be funded from assessments levied on and collected from properties located in the Tourism PID that contain hotels of one hundred (100) or more guest rooms and that are subject to payment of City hotel occupancy taxes pursuant to Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The City will levy a special assessment against the new hotel property located within the expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID ("Hotel' Parcel") in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the consideration received for occupancy of any sleeping rooms furnished by the new hotel on the Hotel Parcel (subject to any lawful exemption of the hotel occupancy tax under applicable state law and City ordinances), with such assessments to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City's hotel occupancy tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The collection of assessments will begin on the earliest date allowed by the Act and continue to be collected at the same time hotel occupancy taxes are collected. The City Council hereby finds that the proposed method of assessment is reasonable and necessary. 2.6 Apportionment of Costs Between the Tourism PID and the City, as a Whole. The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID, inclusive of the Additional Hotel Property, and the City, as a whole, is as follows: (a) The entire cost of each improvement and service will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. (b) No City funds will be used to pay any portion of the cost of any improvement or service, unless such funding is approved from the City Council or other appropriate municipal authority on a case -by -case basis. 3. Inclusion of Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID; Term. Based on the findings set forth above, the City Council authorizes the expansion of the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID takes effect on the date on which this Resolution is adopted by the City Council and will expire concurrently with the expiration date set"forth in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution. The expansion of the Tourism PID is subject to all conditions, limitations, and reservations set forth in the findings in Sections 1 and 2. All other provisions of this Resolution will be effective from and after adoption of this Resolution. 4. Advisory Bodv. The City Council hereby declines to appoint an advisory body for the expanded Tourism PID boundaries pursuant to Section 372.008 of the Act. The City Council hereby reserves the right to assign responsibility for preparation of the ongoing service plan for the PID to another entity in the absence of such an advisory body, as authorized by Section 372.013(a) of the Act.

Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 - Tourism Fund in the amount of $350,000.00, from available, unreserved fund balance, for the purpose of funding mid -year budget adjustments. DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to conduct a public hearing concerning the expansion of the Tourism Public Improvement District (PID) to include one additional hotel property, the updated and revised Fiscal Year 2024-2025 budget and three-year service plan, and the 2024-2025 assessment for the additional hotel, along with certain actions related thereto. On August 29, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 4837-08-2017, establishing the Tourism PID (Establishing Resolution). The City Council subsequently adopted Resolution Nos. 5264-08 2020 (August 18, 2020), 5382-04-2021 (April 13, 2021), Resolution No. 5467-M 2021 (September 14, 2021), Resolution No. 5561-04-2022 (April 12, 2022), 5958-05-2024 (May 14,2024), and 5998-08-2024 (August 27, 2024) expanding the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include additional hotel properties (Expansion Resolutions). Expansion of the Tourism PID Boundaries and Petition: The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Texas Local Government Code (Code) consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. A list of the hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID is included in the Original and Expansion Resolutions and attached hereto. Senate Bill (SB) 804, 87th Texas Legislature (2021), which went into effect on June 14, 2021, revised Section 372.0121 of the Code to clarify the ability of cities to add new hotels into an existing Tourism PID. One of the new provisions affects the way in which the City calculates (or recalculates) the percentage threshold for adding new hotels into the Tourism PID. SB 804 requires the City to update and recalculate each of the percentage thresholds set forth below every time a new hotel property is added to the Tourism PID. Conversely, the prior version of Section 372.0121 only required the City to calculate the impact that the new hotel property had on the pre-existing thresholds. For example, under SB 804, the City has to update and recalculate the appraised value of each and every existing property in the Tourism PID each time that a new hotel is added; whereas, under the prior legislation, the City simply carried forward the values of the existing hotel properties from the year the hotel properties entered into the Tourism PID. Section 372.0121, as revised, allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (ii) a sufficient. number of the record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the district or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. The number of consenting record owners is sufficient if (1) the record owners own more than 60% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID; and either (i) constitute more than 60% of all record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID, or (ii) own, in aggregate, more than 60% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID. If the addition of the new properties results in these numbers dropping at or below the 60% threshold, then the properties may not be added. Inclusion of the Le Meridien Hotel, located at 811 Commerce Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76102, meets both of the above -stated elements, therefore the hotel may be considered by the City Council for inclusion into the Tourism PID. First, the Le Meridien is a hotel property. With regard to the second element, the City Council found that the previous two petitions (original and expanded) complied with Section 372.005 (b-1) of the Code because they had met the necessary percentages. The property owners, or their duly authorized representatives, for the new hotel property, have signed a petition requesting inclusion within the Tourism PID. This results in an increase to 81.79% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, 70.39% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment, and 67.80% of record owners liable for assessment. Because the percentages are still above the 60.00% threshold, the properties meet the second element. Nature of the Improvements: The goals of the Tourism PID focus on increasing the economic impact and enhancing competitiveness in conventions, meetings, leisure and sports tourism, and increasing tourism -related economic activity at all times, including during economic downturns and as inventory grows. The Tourism PID projects include incentives and sales efforts, convention and sports marketing and promotion, site visits and familiarization tours, community arts grants, convention services, event funding applications, operations, research, and administration, all of which benefit the hotels within the Tourism PID. Method of Assessment and Apportionment of Costs: The assessment rate will be an amount equal to 2.00% of the consideration received from the occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel located within the Tourism PID, with such assessment to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for the collection of the City's Hotel Occupancy Tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article 11 of the City Code, as amended. The entire costs of each improvement and service will be paid from the above -stated assessments and no City funds will be used to pay any portion of such costs unless such funding is approved by the City Council on a case -by -case basis. Estimated Costs of the Improvements and Services: ' The total estimated costs for the proposed services and improvements for the life of the Tourism PID (approximately three years) will be $24,190,000.00, which includes, an estimated cost of $350,000.00 for the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Mid -Year Budget Adjustment. The updated and revised budget and three-year service plan is set forth in more detail below and attached. The final version will be subject to approval by the City Council. The estimated costs of the proposed improvements and services to be provided in subsequent years will be subject to future annual budget and service and assessment plans adopted by the City Council in accordance with the Code. The actual costs of improvements and services will be determined in accordance with the approved budget and service plan to be adopted by City Council and will be paid from Tourism PID assessments. Advisability: Staff recommends that the City Council find that these improvements and services are advisable because they will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the expanded boundary of the Tourism PID. Staff recommendation: The Petition has been examined, verified, and found by City staff to meet the requirements of the Code. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council find that the Petition to include the above -stated three hotel properties meets the requirements of the Code. Tourism PID Mid -Year Adiustments The Tourism PID is funded through a 2% assessment on the consideration received from occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel in the Tourism PID. Due to the most recent forecast analysis, Tourism PID assessment revenue is now projected to be 4.73% or $350,000.00 more than originally budgeted. The budgeted expenses show an increase in each category line item for the current fiscal year service plan (see table below).

The proposed changes to the Tourism PID's FY 2024-2025 budget complies with the City's reserve requirements. Funding is available for appropriation in the fund balance of the FWPID #18 - Tourism Fund. The beginning balance is $7,902,711.97, After this M&C, the available balance will be $73552,711.97.

Recitals. The findings set forth in the recitals of this Resolution are found to be true and correct. 2. Findines. The City Council, after duly considering the evidence and testimony presented at the Public Hearings and based on all information known by the City Council, hereby makes the following findings: 2.1 Petition and Boundaries. (a) The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Act consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. The Iists of the original and additional hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID are included in the Establishing Resolution and Expansion Resolutions, respectively. (b) As set forth in the Recitals above, the Act allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if the required elements are satisfied. As evidenced below, the hotel property set forth in Exhibit °` which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes ("Additional Hotel Property"), meets the necessary elements for inclusion into the Tourism PID. (i) The Additional Hotel Property to be included in the Tourism PID as part of this Resolution is a hotel property. (ii) A sufficient number of record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the Tourism PID or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. Specifically, the number of consenting record owners exceeds the thresholds required by the Act, which is evidenced by the following: (1) 80.54% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, (2) 66.67% of record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment, and (3) 69.63% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. 2.2 .Advisability and Feasibility of the Improvements and Services Proposed for the Tourism PID. It is advisable to expand the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property to provide the proposed improvements and services described in the Petition and this Resolution. The improvements and services will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the Tourism PID. The Fort Worth Convention and Visitor's Bureau staff performed' an analysis of the Tourism PID, its service plan and strategies, and concluded that it provides a very effective means for significantly enhancing the ability of Fort Worth to promote its hotel, convention, and tourism activity, which has been borne out since the Tourism PID's establishment. Based on this analysis and the successful history of the Tourism PID, the City finds the proposed tourism public improvement district to be both advisable and feasible. 2.3 Nature of the Improvements and Services. The general nature of the proposed improvements and services to be provided within the expanded boundaries of Tourism PID include, without limitation, marketing, business recruitment, and promotional activities authorized by the Act for improvements and promotion of the Tourism PID, including, but not limited to, the provision of incentives by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to organizations to encourage them to bring large and city-wide events (including, without limitation, meetings, sporting, recreation, and cultural events) to Fort Worth and to fund additional marketing by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to increase hotel stays within the City. 2.4 Estimated Cost of the Improvements and Services. Over the four (4) year period beginning on October 1, 2023 and ending on the expiration of the Tourism PID as provided in Section 3, the estimated total cost of the improvements and services to be provided by the Tourism PID will be $29,810,000.00, which includes an estimated cost of $7,000,000.00 for the 2023-2024 fiscal year. For the 2024-2025 fiscal year, the estimated costs of the above -referenced improvements and services, and estimated costs to implement such improvements and services are: Incentives and Sales Efforts $3,782,675 Marketing and Research (Promotion/Advertising) $2, 570,750 Site Visits & Familiarization Tours $ 146,900 Cultural Enhancements through Marketing and Promotion of the Arts $550,875 Operations and Administration $293,800 City Administrative Fee $55,000 Total $7,400,000 On May 21, 2024, the City Council adopted the fiscal 2023-2024 budget and six- year service plan, the same being Ordinance No. 26928-05-2024. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property will not affect the adopted budget. Such costs will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. The six -year service plan proposed for the Tourism PID is attached hereto as "Exhibit B" ("Service Plan") and incorporated herein for all purposes. The Service Plan, budget, and assessment amount are subject to annual review and approval by the City Council. 2.5. Method of Assessment. The costs of the improvements and services will be funded from assessments levied on and collected from properties located in the Tourism PID that contain hotels of one hundred (100) or more guest rooms and that are subject to payment of City hotel occupancy taxes pursuant to Chapter 32, Article 11 of the City Code, as amended. The City will levy a special assessment against the new hotel property located within the expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID ("Hotel Parcel") in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the consideration received for occupancy of any sleeping rooms furnished by the new hotel on the Hotel Parcel (subject to any lawful exemption of the hotel occupancy tax under applicable state law and City ordinances), with such assessments to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City's hotel occupancy tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The collection of assessments will begin on the earliest date allowed by the Act and continue to be collected at the same time hotel occupancy taxes are collected. The City Council hereby finds that the proposed method of assessment is reasonable and necessary. 3.6. Apportionment of Costs Between the Tourism PID and the City, as a Whole. The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID, inclusive of the Additional Hotel Property, and the City, as a whole, is as follows: (a) The entire cost of each improvement and service will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. (b) No City funds will be used to pay any portion of the cost of any improvement or service, unless such funding is approved from the City Council or other appropriate municipal authority on a case -by -case basis. 3. Inclusion of Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID: Term. Based on the findings set forth above, the City Council authorizes the expansion of the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID takes effect on the date on which this Resolution is adopted by the City Council and will expire concurrently with the expiration date set forth in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution. The expansion of the Tourism PID is subject to all conditions, limitations, and reservations set forth in the findings in Sections 1 and 2. All other provisions of this Resolution will be effective from and after adoption of this Resolution. 4. Advisory Bodv. The City Council hereby declines to appoint an advisory body for the expanded Tourism PID boundaries pursuant to Section 372.008 of the Act.

"` City of Fort Worth, Texas Mayor and Council Communication DATE: 08/27/24 M&C FILE NUMBER: M&C 24.0728 LOG NAME: 17ED PID18FY25 EXPAND SUBJECT (ALL) Conduct Public Benefit Hearing Concerning the Expansion of Fort Worth Public Improvement District No. 18 - Tourism to Include One Additional Hotel Property; Find for the Sufficiency of the Attached Petition Requesting Expansion of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 —Tourism; and Adopt the Resolution Authorizing and Expanding the Fort Worth Public Improvement District No. 18 -Tourism to Include the Additional Hotel Property (PUBLIC HEARING - a. Report of City Staff. Lacey Ruiz; b. Public Comment; c. Council Action: Close Public Hearing and Act on the M&C) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Conduct a public benefit hearing concerning the expansion of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 —Tourism to include one additional hotel property; 2. Find that the attached petition requesting inclusion into the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism meets the requirements set forth in Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code; 3. Adopt the attached Resolution: (i) mWng certain findings concerning the nature and advisability of special improvements and services to be provided for the benefit of the additional hotel to be included in the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 --Tourism, the estimated costs of such improvements and services, the method of assessment, the boundaries of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism, and the apportionment of costs between the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism and the City, as a whole, and (ii) authorizing and expanding the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 -- Tourism to include one (1) additional hotel; and 4. Direct the City Secretary to publish notice of the expansion of the Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism as required by Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code. DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to expand the boundaries of Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 - Tourism (Tourism PID) through the inclusion of one (1) additional hotel property. On August29, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 4837-08-2017, establishing the Tourism PID (Establishing Resolution). The City Council subsequently adopted Resolution Nos. 5264-08-2020 (August 18, 2020), 5382-04-2021 (April 13, 2021) and 5958-05 2024 (May 14,2024) expanding the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include additional hotel properties (Expansion Resolutions). Expansion of the Tourism PID Boundaries and Petition: The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Texas Local Government Code (Code) consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. A list of the hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID is included in the Original and Expansion Resolutions and attached hereto. Senate Bill (SB) 804, 87th Texas Legislature (2021), which went into effect on June 14, 2021, revised Section 372.0121 of the Code to clarify the ability of cities to add new hotels into an existing Tourism PID. One of the new provisions affects the way in which the City calculates (or recalculates) the percentage threshold for adding new hotels into the Tourism PID. SB 804 requires the City to update and recalculate each of the percentage thresholds set forth below every time a new hotel property is added to the Tourism PID. Conversely, the prior version of Section 372.0121 only required the City to calculate the impact that the new hotel property had on the pre-existing thresholds. For example, under SB 804, the City has to update and recalculate the appraised value of each and every existing property in the Tourism PID each time that a new hotel is added; whereas, under the prior legislation, the City simply carried forward the values of the existing hotel properties from the year the hotel properties entered into the Tourism PID. Section 372.0121, as revised, allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (4) a sufficient number of the record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the district or by signing a petition cr written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. The number of consenting record owners is sufficient if (1) the record owners own more than 60% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID; and either (i) constitute more than 60% of all record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID, or (ii) own, in aggregate, more than 60% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID. If the addition of the new properties results in these numbers dropping at or below the 60% threshold, then the properties may not be added. Inclusion of the Avid Hotel - Trinity Uptown (Avid Hotel), located at 320 Samuels Ave., Fort Worth, Texas 76102, meets the above -stated elements and, therefore, may be considered by the City Council for inclusion into the Tourism PID. First, the Avid Hotel is a hotel property. With regard to the second element, the property owner, or its duly authorized representatives, for the Avid Hotel, signed a petition requesting inclusion within the Tourism PID. This results in an increase from 80.54% to 83.25% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, from 69.63% to 70.32% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment and from 66.67% to 67.24% of record owners liable for assessment. These figures remain above the statutory threshold of 60.00%, thereby meeting the required conditions for the adjustment of the Tourism PID's composition. Nature of the Improvements: The goals of the Tourism PID focus on increasing the economic impact and enhancing competitiveness in conventions, meetings, leisure and sports tourism and increasing tourism -related economic activity at all times, including during economic downturns and as inventory grows. The Tourism PID projects include incentives and sales efforts, convention and sports marketing and promotion, site visits and familiarization tours, community arts grants, convention services, event funding application, operations, research, and administration, all of which benefit the hotels within the Tourism PID. Method of Assessment and Apportionment of Costs: The assessment rate will be an amount equal to 2.00% of the consideration received from the occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel located within the Tourism PID, with such assessment to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for the collection of the City's Hotel Occupancy Tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The entire costs of each improvement and service will be paid from the above -stated assessments and no City funds will be used to pay any portion of such costs unless such funding is approved by the City Council on a case -by -case basis. Estimated Costs of the Improvements and Services: The total estimated costs for the proposed services and improvements for the life of the Tourism PID (approximately three years) will be $23,330,000.00, which includes an estimated cost of $7,400,000.00 for the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Budget. Assessments will begin on October 1, 2024. Advisability: Staff recommends that the City Council find that these improvements and services are advisable because they will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the expanded boundary of the Tourism PID. Upon the close of the public hearing, staff recommends that the City Council declare the petition to expand the Tourism PID to include the one additional hotel property to be sufficient and adopt the attached Resolution making findings concerning the following and expanding the Tourism PID: • The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID and the City, as whole; • The proposed method of assessment; • The expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID; • The estimated costs of the proposed improvements and services; • The general nature of the proposed improvements and services; and • The advisability of expanding the Tourism PID. Upon adoption of the Resolution, the Sandman will be included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID, effective on the date that City Council's authorization to expand the Tourism PID has been published in a newspaper of general circulation and will expire on the date set forth in the Original Resolution. The City Council will hold two public hearings to consider the proposed budget, plan of service, and levy of assessments against property within the Tourism PID, which will be held during the regular City Council meetings on Tuesday, August 27, 2024 at 10:00 A.M., and Tuesday, September 17, 2024 at 6:00 P.M. The City Council is expected to take final action and vote on the proposed budget, plan of service, and levy of assessments following the close of the hearing on September 17, 2024.

Section 372.0121 of the Code allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (ii) a 1A61 A41944414 included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the district or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Toudsm PD. The number of consenting record owners is sufficient if (1) the record owners own more than 60% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID; and either (i) constitute more than 60% of all record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID, or (ii) own, in aggregates, more than 60% of the are of all taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID. If the addition of the new property results in these numbers dropping at or below the 60% threshold, then the property may not be added. Inclusion of the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel, located at 6828 North Freeway, Fort Worth, Texas 76137 (Four Points) meets the above -stated elements and, therefore, may be considered by the City Council for inclusion into the Tourism PID. First, the Four Points is a hotel property. With regard to the second element, the property owner, or its duly authorized representative, for the new hotel property, has signed a petition requesting inclusion within the Tourism PID. This results in an increase to 79.93% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, 67.60% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment, and 64.91 % of record owners liable for assessment. Because the percentages are still above the 60.00\% threshold, inclusion of the Four Points the property meet the second element. Nature of the Improvements: The goals of the Tourism PID focus on increasing the economic impact and enhancing competitiveness in conventions, meetings, leisure and sports tourism and increasing tourism -related economic activity at all times, including during economic downturns and as inventory grows. The Tourism PID projects include incentives and sales efforts, convention and sports marketing and promotion, site visits and familiarization tours, community arts grants, convention services, event funding application, operations, research, and administration, all of which benefit the hotels within the Tourism PID. Method of Assessment and Apportionment of Costs: The assessment rate will be an amount equal to 2.00% of the consideration received from the occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel located within the Tourism PID, with such assessment to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for the collection of the City's Hotel Occupancy Tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article 11 of the City Code, as amended. The entire costs of each improvement and service will be paid from the above -stated assessments and no City funds will be used to pay any portion of such costs unless such funding is approved by the City Council on a case -by -case basis.

Recitals. The findings set forth in the recitals of this Resolution are found to be true and correct. 2. FindinLis. The City Council, after duly considering the evidence and testimony presented at the Public Hearings and based on all information known by the City Council, hereby makes the following findings: 2.1 Petition and Boundaries. (a) The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Act consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. The lists of the original and additional hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID are included in the Establishing Resolution and Expansion Resolutions, respectively. (b) As set forth in the Recitals above, the Act allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if the required elements are satisfied. As evidenced below, the hotel property set forth in Exhibit "A". which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes ("Additional Hotel Property"), meets the necessary elements for inclusion into the Tourism PID. (i) The Additional Hotel Property to be included in the Tourism PID as part of this Resolution is a hotel property. (ii) A sufficient number of record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the Tourism PID or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. Specifically, the number of consenting record owners exceeds the thresholds required by the Act, which is evidenced by the following: (1) 79.87% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, (2) 64.29% of record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment, and (3) 67.29% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. 2.2 Advisability and Feasibility of the Improvements and Services Proposed for the Tourism PID . It is advisable to expand the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property to provide the proposed improvements and services described in the Petition and this Resolution. The improvements and services will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the Tourism PID. The Fort Worth Convention and Visitor's Bureau staff performed an analysis of the Tourism PID, its service plan and strategies, and concluded that it provides a very effective means for significantly enhancing the ability of Fort Worth to promote its hotel, convention, and tourism activity, which has been borne out since the Tourism PID's establishment. Based on this analysis and the successful history of the Tourism PID, the City finds the proposed tourism public improvement district to be both advisable and feasible. 2.3 Nature of the Improvements and Services. The general nature of the proposed improvements and services to be provided within the expanded boundaries of Tourism PID include, without limitation, marketing, business recruitment, and promotional activities authorized by the Act for improvements and promotion of the Tourism PID, including, but not limited to, the provision of incentives by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to organizations to encourage them to bring large and city-wide events (including, without limitation, meetings, sporting, recreation, and cultural events) to Fort Worth and to fund additional marketing by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to increase hotel stays within the City. 2.4 Estimated Cost of the Improvements and Services. Over the six (6) year period beginning on October 1, 2021 and ending on the expiration of the Tourism PID as provided in Section 3 , the estimated total cost of the improvements and services to be provided by the Tourism PID will be $27,737,196.00, which includes an estimated cost of $3,950,000.00 for the 2021-2022 fiscal year. For the 2021-2022 fiscal year, the estimated costs of the above -referenced improvements and services, and estimated costs to implement such improvements and services are: Incentives and Sales Efforts $1,850,125 Marketing and Research (Promotion/Advertising) $1,363,250 Site Visits & Familiarization Tours $ 1943750 Cultural Enhancements through Marketing and Promotion of the Arts $292,125 Operations and Administration $194,750 City Administrative Fee $55,000 Total $3,950,000 Such estimated costs are reasonable and appropriate. The estimated costs of improvements and services provided in the 2021-2022 fiscal year will be determined in a subsequent annual budget and service plan for the Tourism PID to be approved by the City Council on or about September 21, 2021, in accordance with the Act. Such costs will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. The six -year service plan proposed for the Tourism PID is attached hereto as "Exhibit B" ("Service Plan") and incorporated herein for all purposes. The Service Plan, budget, and assessment amount are subject to annual review and approval by the City Council. 2.5. Method of Assessment. The costs of the improvements and services will be funded from assessments levied on and collected from properties located in the Tourism PID that contain hotels of one hundred (100) or more guest rooms and that are subject to payment of City hotel occupancy taxes pursuant to Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The City will levy a special assessment against the new hotel property located within the expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID ("Hotel Parcel") in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the consideration received for occupancy of any sleeping rooms furnished by the new hotel on the Hotel Parcel (subject to any lawful exemption of the hotel occupancy tax under applicable state law and City ordinances), with such assessments to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City's hotel occupancy tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article lI of the City Code, as amended. The collection of assessments will begin on October 1, 2021 and continue to be made at the same time hotel occupancy taxes are collected. The City Council hereby finds that the proposed method of assessment is reasonable and necessary. 3.6. Apportionment of Costs Between the Tourism PID and the City, as a Whole. The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID, inclusive of the Additional Hotel Property, and the City, as a whole, is as follows: (a) The entire cost of each improvement and service will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with the Act. (b) No City funds will be used to pay any portion of the cost of any improvement or service, unless such funding is approved from the City Council or other appropriate municipal authority on a case -by -case basis. 3. Inclusion of Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID; Term. Based on the findings set forth above, the City Council authorizes the expansion of the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Property. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Property within the Tourism PID takes effect on the date on which this Resolution is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City in accordance with Section 372.010(b) of the Act and will expire concurrently with the expiration date set forth in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution. The expansion of the Tourism PID is subject to all conditions, limitations, and reservations set forth in the findings in Sections 1 and 2. All other provisions of this Resolution will be effective from and after adoption of this Resolution. 4. Advisory Bodv.

The City Council hereby reserves the right to assign responsibility for preparation of the ongoing service plan for the PID to another entity in the absence of such an advisory body, as authorized by Section 372.013(a) of the Act.

SECTION 3. The City Council, from all evidence before it, including all information provided to it and considered in the Public Hearings, finds that the assessments described herein on Hotel Parcels should be made and levied in a manner that results in imposing the costs of the Services on Qualifying Hotels that are similarly benefitted from the provision of those Services. The apportionment of those costs will be based on the special benefits accruing to the Qualifying Hotels on account of the Services provided. As a result, those Qualifying Hotels that sell more guest rooms will pay a greater portion of the costs of the Services because those properties will have received a greater benefit from the promotions and marketing comprising the Services. The City Council further finds that this method of assessment is fair and equitable and results in an apportionment of the costs of the Services that complies with applicable law. SECTION 4. In accordance with Section 372.017, Texas Local Government Code, in order to pay the costs of the improvements and services in the Service Plan provided during Fiscal Year 2021-2022, effective October 1, 2021 the City hereby levies a special assessment against owners/operators of the Hotel Parcels in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the consideration received from the occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by Qualifying Hotels, which assessments shall be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City's hotel occupancy tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code. SECTION 5.

Gonzales Acting City Secretary �XAS A Resolution NO.5382-04-2021 AUTHORIZING AND EXPANDING FORT WORTH PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 18 (TOURISM PID) TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL HOTELS AND TAKING CERTAIN OTHER ACTIONS CONCERNING THE DISTRICT AND CORRECTING THE SUFFICIENCY PERCENTAGES ASSOCIATED WITH THE PRIOR TOURISM PID EXPANSION PETITION WHEREAS, the Public Improvement District Assessment Act, Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code ("Act") allows for the establishment of public improvement districts; WHEREAS, on August 29, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 4837-08-2017, establishing Fort Worth Public Improvement District 18 — Tourism ("Tourism PID") ("Establishing Resolution"); WHEREAS, Section 372.0121 of the Code allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (ii) the property could have been included in the Tourism PID without violating Section 372.005 (b-1) of the Code when the Tourism PID was created regardless of whether the record owners of the property signed the original petition; WHEREAS, with regard to the second element, the Code requires the petition to be signed by the (1) record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment that constitute more than 60.00% of the appraised value and (2) more than 60% of (i) all record owners liable for assessment or (ii) area of all taxable property liable for assessment within the Tourism PID; WHEREAS, on August 18, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 5264-08-2020, expanding the boundaries of the Tourism PID ("Tourism PID") ("Expansion Resolution"); WHEREAS, in the Expansion Resolution, the sufficiency percentages for the Tourism PID expansion petition ("Expansion Petition") were found to be sufficient because the addition of the new hotel properties did not result in the percentages dropping at or below 60%; WHEREAS, however, the property owner(s) for the Hyatt Place TCU, 2500 W. Berry Street, was counted as not having signed the Expansion Petition when, in fact, the owner(s) did sign (See the Expansion Petition attached to Mayor and Council Communication 20-0551); WHEREAS, when factoring in the signed petition for the Hyatt Place TCU, the petition sufficiency percentages for the Expansion Petition should have been as follows: (1) 74.9% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, (2) 61.1% of record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment, and (3) 65.7% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment; WHEREAS, another expansion petition ("Petition") was submitted to the City of Fort Worth, Texas ("City"), pursuant to the Act, requesting to expand the Tourism boundaries to include additional hotel properties within Tourism PID and has been on file in the office of the City Secretary for public inspection; WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 372.009 of the Act, the City provided notice and publication of public hearings to be conducted on April 6, 2021 and April 13, 2021 to consider the expansion of the Tourism PID ("Public Hearings"), which notice and publication included the following: (i) time and place of the public hearing; (ii) general nature of the proposed improvements and services; (iii) estimated costs of the improvements and services; (iv) expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID; (v) proposed method of assessment; and (vi) proposed apportionment of cost between the additional hotel properties in Tourism AID and the City; WHEREAS, notice of the Public Hearing was published on March 19, 2021 in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram, a newspaper of general circulation in the City, and was also mailed March 18, 2021 to all record owners of property in the Tourism PID liable for assessment, and all persons desiring to be heard were given a full and fair opportunity to be heard at the Public Hearing; WHEREAS, the City Council conducted and adjourned the Public Hearing to consider the expansion of the Tourism PID; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCII. OF THE CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS: 1. Recitals. The findings set forth in the recitals of this Resolution are found to be true and correct. 2. Correction to Expansion Petition. 2.1 Expansion Petition. Based on the recitals set forth above, the City Council hereby finds that the Expansion Petition remains sufficient and that the percentages are, and should always have, resulted in an increase to: (1) 74.9% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, (2) 61.1% of record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment, and (3) 65.7% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. 3. Findings. The City Council, after duly considering the evidence and testimony presented at the Public Hearings and based on all information known by the City Council, hereby makes the following findings: 3.1 Petition and Boundaries. (a) The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Act consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. A list of the original and additional hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID is included in the Establishing Resolution and Expansion Resolution, respectively. (b) Section 372.0121 of the Act allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (ii) the property could have been included in the Tourism PID without violating Section 372.005(b-1) of the Code when the Tourism PID was created regardless of whether the record owners of the property signed the original petition. As evidenced below, the hotel properties set forth in Exhibit "A", which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes ("Additional Hotel Properties"), meet the necessary elements for inclusion into the Tourism PID. (i) The Additional Hotel Properties to be included in the Tourism PID as part of this Resolution are all hotel properties. (h) City Council found that the Original Petition and Expansion Petition for the Tourism PID were sufficient because they had been signed by record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment that constituted: (a) 74.9% of the appraised value, (2) 6 1. 1% of record owners, and (3) 65.7% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. The property owners, or their duly authorized representatives, for all of the Additional Hotel Properties have each signed a petition requesting inclusion within the Tourism PID. This results in an increase to (1) 75.7% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, (2) 63.2% of record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment, and (3) 66.9% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. 3.2 Advisability and Feasibility of the Improvements and Services Proposed for the Tourism PID. It is advisable to expand the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Properties set forth herein to provide the proposed improvements and services described in the Petition and this Resolution. The improvements and services will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the Tourism PID. The Fort Worth Convention and Visitor's Bureau staff performed an analysis of the Tourism PID, its service plan and strategies, and concluded that it provides a very effective means for significantly enhancing the ability of Fort Worth to promote its hotel, convention, and tourism activity, which has been borne out since the Tourism PID's establishment. Based on this analysis and the successful history of the Tourism PID, the City finds the proposed tourism public improvement district to be both advisable and feasible. 3.3 Nature of the Improvements and Services. The general nature of the proposed improvements and services to be provided within the expanded boundaries of Tourism PID include, without limitation, marketing, business recruitment, and promotional activities authorized by the Act for improvements and promotion of the Tourism PID, including, but not limited to, the provision of incentives by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to organizations to encourage them to bring large and city-wide events (including, without limitation, meetings, sporting, recreation, and cultural events) to Fort Worth and to fund additional marketing by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to increase hotel stays within the City. 3.4 Estimated Cost of the Improvements and Services. Over the seven (7) year period beginning on October 1, 2020 and ending on the expiration of the Tourism PID as provided in Section 4, the estimated total cost of the improvements and services to be provided by the Tourism PID will be $29,555,000.00, which includes an estimated cost of $2,800,000.00 for the 2020-2021 fiscal year. For the 2020-2021 fiscal year, the estimated cost of the above -referenced improvements and services, and estimated costs to implement such improvements and services is: Incentives and Sales Efforts $1,262,000 Marketing and Research (Promotion/Advertising) $972,000 Site Visits & Familiarization Tours $ 81,000 Cultural Enhancements through Marketing and Promotion of the Arts $257,200 Operations and Administration $173,000 City Administrative Fee $55,000 Total $2,800,000 Such estimated costs are reasonable and appropriate. The estimated costs of improvements and services provided in the 2020-2021 fiscal year will be determined in a subsequent annual budget and service plan for the Tourism PID to be approved by the City Council on April 13, 2021, in accordance with Chapter 372 of the Act. Such costs will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with Chapter 372 of the Act. The seven-year service plan proposed for the Tourism PID is attached hereto as "Exhibit B" ("Service Plan") and incorporated herein for all purposes. The Service Plan, budget, and assessment amount are subject to annual review and approval by the City Council. 3.5. Method of Assessment. The costs of the improvements and services will be funded from assessments levied on and collected from properties located in the Tourism PID that contain hotels of one hundred (100) or more guest rooms and that are subject to payment of City hotel occupancy taxes pursuant to Chapter 32, Article 11 of the City Code, as amended. The City will levy a special assessment against the new hotel properties located within the expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID ("Hotel Parcel") in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the consideration received for occupancy of any sleeping rooms furnished by a hotel located on a Hotel Parcel (subject to any lawful exemption of the hotel occupancy tax under applicable state law and City ordinances), with such assessments to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City's hotel occupancy tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The collection of assessments for the Additional Hotel Properties will be made at the same time hotel occupancy taxes are collected on and after the date that the Additional Hotel Properties are included in the Tourism PID. The City Council hereby finds that the proposed method of assessment is reasonable and necessary. 3.6. Apportionment of Costs Between the Tourism PID and the City, as a Whole. The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID, inclusive of the Additional Hotel Properties, and the City, as a whole, is as follows: (a) The entire cost of each improvement and service will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with Chapter 372 of the Act. (b) No City funds will be used to pay any portion of the cost of any improvement or service, unless such funding is approved from the City Council or other appropriate municipal authority on a case -by -case basis. 4. Inclusion of Additional Hotel Properties within the Tourism PID: Term. Based on the findings set forth above, the City Council authorizes the expansion of the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Properties. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Properties within the Tourism PID takes effect on the date on which this Resolution is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City in accordance with Section 372.010(b) of the Act and will expire concurrently with the expiration date set forth in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution. The expansion of the Tourism PID is subject to all conditions, limitations, and reservations set forth in the findings in Sections 2 and 3. All other provisions of this Resolution will be effective from and after adoption of this Resolution. 5. Advisory Bodv. The City Council hereby declines to appoint an advisory body for the expanded Tourism PID boundaries pursuant to Section 372.008 of the Act. The City Council hereby reserves the right to assign responsibility for preparation of the ongoing service plan for the PID to another entity in the absence of such an advisory body, as authorized by Section 372.013(a) of the Act. 6.

Recitals. The findings set forth in the recitals of this Resolution are found to be true and correct. 2. Findings. The City Council, after duly considering the evidence and testimony presented at the Public Hearing and based on all information known by the City Council, hereby makes the following findings: 2.1 Petition and Boundaries. (a) The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Act consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. A list of the original hotels that arc included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID is included in the Establishing Resolution. (b) Section 372.0121 of the Act allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (ii) the property could have been included in the Tourism PID without violating Section 372.005(b-1) of the Code when the Tourism PID was created regardless of whether the record owners of the property signed the original petition. As evidenced below, the hotel properties set forth in Exhibit "A", which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes ("Additional Hotel Properties"), meet the necessary elements for inclusion into the Tourism PID. (i) The Additional Hotel Properties to be included in the Tourism PID as part of this Resolution are all hotel properties. (ii) The City Council found that the original petition for the Tourism PID was sufficient because it had been signed by record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment that constituted: (a) 73.13% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment and (b) 62.96% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment (see Establishing Resolution). The property owners, or their duly authorized representatives, for all of the Additional Hotel Properties have each signed a petition requesting inclusion within the Tourism PID. This results in an increase to 73.9% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment and 64.4% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment. 2.2 Advisability and Feasibility of the Improvements and Services Proposed for the Tourism PID. It is advisable to expand the Tourism PID to include the Additional Ilotel Properties set forth herein to provide the proposed improvements and services described in the Petition and this Resolution. The improvements and services will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the Tourism PID. The Fort Worth Convention and Visitor's Bureau staff performed an analysis of the Tourism PID, its service plan and strategies, and concluded that it provides a very effective means for significantly enhancing the ability of Fort Worth to promote its hotel, convention, and tourism activity, which has been borne out since the Tourism PID's establishment. Based on this analysis and the successful history of the Tourism PID, the City finds the proposed tourism public improvement district to be both advisable and feasible. 2.3 Nature of the Improvements and Services. The general nature of the proposed improvements and services to be provided within the expanded boundaries of Tourism PID include, without limitation, marketing, business recruitment, and promotional activities authorized by the Act for improvements and promotion of the Tourism PID, including, but not limited to, the provision of incentives by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to organizations to encourage them to bring large and city-wide events (including, without limitation, meetings, sporting, recreation, and cultural events) to Fort Worth and to fund additional marketing by the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau to increase hotel stays within the City. 2.4 Estimated Cost of the Improvements and Services. Over the seven (7) year period beginning on October 1, 2020 and ending on the expiration of the Tourism PID as provided in Section 3, the estimated total cost of the improvements and services to be provided by the Tourism PID will be $37,220,037.00, which includes an estimated cost of $4,178,453.00 for the 2020-2021 fiscal year. For the 2020-2021 fiscal year, the estimated cost of the above -referenced improvements and services, and estimated costs to implement such improvements and services is: Incentives and Sales Efforts $1,855,554 Marketing and Research (Promotion/Advertising) $1,443,208 Site Visits & Familiarization Tours $ 309,259 Cultural Enhancements through Marketing and Promotion of the Arts $309,259 Operations and Administration $206,173 City Administrative Fee $55,000 Total $4,178,453 Such estimated costs are reasonable and appropriate. The estimated costs of improvements and services provided in the 2020-2021 fiscal year will be determined in a subsequent annual budget and service plan for the Tourism PID to be approved by the City Council on August 25, 2020, in accordance with Chapter 372 of the Act. Such costs will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with Chapter 372 of the Act. The seven-year service plan proposed for the Tourism PID is attached hereto as "Exhibit B" ("Service Plan") and incorporated herein for all purposes. The Service Plan budget and assessment amount are subject to annual review and approval by the City Council. 2.5. Method of Assessment. The costs of the improvements and services will be funded from assessments levied on and collected from properties located in the Tourism PID that contain hotels of one hundred (100) or more guest rooms and that are subject to payment of City hotel occupancy taxes pursuant to Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The City will levy a special assessment against the new hotel properties located within the expanded boundaries of the Tourism PID ("Hotel Parcel") in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the consideration received for occupancy of any sleeping rooms furnished by a hotel located on a Hotel Parcel (subject to any lawful exemption of the hotel occupancy tax under applicable state law and City ordinances), with such assessments to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City's hotel occupancy tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The collection of assessments will be made at the same time hotel occupancy taxes are collected on and after October 1, 2020. The City Council hereby finds that the proposed method of assessment is reasonable and necessary. 2.6. Apportionment of Costs Between the Tourism PID and the City, as a Whole. The apportionment of costs between the "Tourism PID, inclusive of the Additional Hotel Proeprties, and the City, as a whole, is as follows: (a) The entire cost of each improvement and service will be paid from assessments levied in accordance with Chapter 372 of the Act. (b) No City funds will be used to pay any portion of the cost of any improvement or service, unless such funding is approved from the City Council or other appropriate municipal authority on a case -by -case basis. 3. Inclusion of Additional Hotel Pronerties within the Tourism PID; Term. Based on the findings set forth above, the City Council authorizes the expansion of the boundaries of the "Tourism PID to include the Additional Hotel Properties. The inclusion of the Additional Hotel Properties within the "Tourism PID takes effect on the date on which this Resolution is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City in accordance with Section 372.010(b) of the Act and will expire concurrently with the expiration date set forth in Section 3 of the Establishing Resolution. The expansion of the Tourism PID is subject to all conditions, limitations, and reservations set forth in the findings in Section 2. All other provisions of this Resolution shall be effective from and after adoption of this Resolution. 4. Advisory Bodv. The City Council hereby declines to appoint an advisory body for the expanded Tourism PID boundaries pursuant to Section 372.008 of the Act. The City Council hereby reserves the right to assign responsibility for preparation of the ongoing service plan for the PID to another entity in the absence of such an advisory body, as authorized by Section 372.013(a) of the Act. 5. Publication. The City Secretary is hereby directed to publish notice of the City Council's authorization to establish the PID once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City.

DATE: Tuesday, August 29, 2017 REFERENCE NO.: BH-366 LOG NAME: 25PID18ESTABLISHTOURISMPID SUBJECT: Conduct Public Benefit Hearing to Declare the Sufficiency of a Petition Requesting Establishment of Fort Worth Public Improvement District No. 18 (Tourism PID) and Adopt a Resolution Authorizing and Establishing the Tourism PID (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Conduct a public benefit hearing concerning the sufficiency of a petition requesting establishment of Fort Worth Public Improvement District No. 18 (Tourism PID) and the establishment of the Tourism PID; 2. Find that the petition requesting establishment of the Tourism PID meets the requirements necessary to designate the proposed area as a Public Improvement District pursuant to Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code; 3. Adopt the attached Resolution: (i) making certain findings concerning the nature and advisability of special improvements and services to be provided for the benefit of properties in the Tourism PID, the estimated costs of such improvements and services, the method of assessment, the boundaries of the Tourism PID and the apportionment of cost between the Tourism PID and the City, as a whole and (ii) authorizing and establishing the Tourism PID; and 4. Direct the City Secretary to publish notice of the establishment of the Tourism PID as required by Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code. DISCUSSION: Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code (Act) allows certain hotel property owners to petition the City for the establishment of a public improvement district that confers a special benefit on non- contiguous properties comprised solely of hotels with 100 rooms or more within the City. A petition requesting establishment of Fort Worth Public Improvement District No. 18 (Tourism PID) has been filed with the City Secretary. The petition complies with Section 372.005 of the Act and, as of August 29, 2017, has been signed by record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment under the proposal who constitute: (a) 73.13% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment under the proposal set forth in the petition, as determined by the current roll of the Tarrant Appraisal District and (b) 62.96% of the area of all taxable real property that is liable for assessment under the proposal (see Attachment 1). City staff has verified and confirmed all petition signatures. The goals of the proposed Tourism PID focus on increasing the economic impact and enhancing competitiveness in conventions, meetings, leisure and sports tourism and increasing tourism -related economic activity at all times, including during economic downturns and as inventory grows. The Logname: 25PID18ESTABLISHTOURISMPID Page 1 of 3 proposed Tourism PID projects include incentives and sales efforts, convention and sports marketing and promotion, site visits and familiarization tours, community arts grants, convention services, event funding application, operations, research, and administration, all of which benefit the hotels within the Tourism PID. The proposed boundaries include noncontiguous areas authorized under the Act consisting only of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City. The proposed assessment rate would be two percent of the consideration paid for occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel located within the Tourism PID, with such assessment to be collected in the same manner an in accordance with the same procedures as those established for collection of the City's Hotel Occupancy Tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article 11 of the City Code, as amended. The entire costs of each improvement and service will be paid from the above -stated assessments and no City funds will be used to pay any portion of such costs, unless such funding is approved by the City Council on a case -by -case basis. The total estimated costs for the proposed services and improvements for the life of the Tourism PID (approximately 10 years) will be $57,036,809, which includes an estimated cost of $3,469,985.00 for the 2017-2018 fiscal year, a 40% increase for the 2018-2019 fiscal year and a year -over -year increase of five percent (5 percent) for the remaining eight -year term. Assessments will begin on January 1, 2018. The City intends to enter into a management Agreement with a to -be -named non-profit corporation associated with the Fort Worth Convention and Visitors Bureau (Fort Worth Tourism Public Improvement District Corporation) to manage the day-to-day affairs of the Tourism PID, which contract will be addressed in a separate, but related, M&C authorizing the assessment. Staff recommends that the City Council find that these improvements and services are advisable because they will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the Tourism PID. Upon the close of the public hearing, staff recommends that the City Council declare the petition to create the Tourism PID to be sufficient and adopt the attached Resolution making findings concerning the following and establishing the Tourism PID: • The advisability of establishing the proposed Tourism PID; • The general nature of the proposed improvements and services; • The estimated costs of the proposed improvements and services; • The boundaries of the Tourism PID; - The proposed method of assessment; and • The apportionment of costs between the Tourism PID and the City, as whole. Upon adoption of the Resolution, the Tourism PID will become effective on the date that City Council's authorization to establish the Tourism PID has been published in a newspaper of general circulation and will remain in effect until the earlier of 10 years from the effective date of the Tourism PID or September 30, 2027. The proposed Tourism PID encompasses ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS. This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity. FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that approval of the above recommendations will establish the City's 18th Public Improvement District.

The contract will enable the FWCVB to implement additional marketing and incentive programs to secure increased convention, group, and other hotel activity to the City of Fort Worth. The contract will be funded by Fort Worth Tourism Public Improvement District (FWTPID) proceeds received from a two percent special assessment levied against all hotels with 100 or more rooms within the City of Fort Worth. To implement this program, the Fort Worth Tourism Public Improvement District Corporation (hereinafter referred to as FWTPIDC) Board will adopt an annual budget along with specific ROI requirements for marketing and incentive expenditures. The FWTPIDC Board shall adopt incentive and marketing policies and protocols under which the FWCVB can pursuant to advance approval by the FWTPIDC Board, implement projects if the project meets the preset criteria adopted by the FWTPIDC Board. The FWTFIDC Board may choose to provide adjustments to the annual plan throughout the budget year that are not inconsistent with the annual adopted FWTPID budget and service plan. The FWCVB shall expend FWTPID proceeds only for proposals that meet the ROI standards and protocols adopted by the FWTPIDC Board of Directors unless a specific exception is approved by a majority of the FWTPIDC Board of Directors. Mission of the FWTPID: The Fort Worth Tourism Public Improvement District is a public improvement district dedicated to improving convention and group hotel bookie, and hotel room night consumption in the City of Fort Worth. Purpose of the Public Improvement District and the Non -Profit Corporation: The creation of the Fort Worth Tourism Public Improvement District and of the Fort Worth Tourism Public Improvement District Corporation is to ensure the effective and judicious allocation of district assessment revenues to accomplish the above noted mission of the District. Start -Up Costs for Creation of the YID It is understood by both the FWTPIDC and by the FWCVB that there are certain start-up costs for creation of the district. These costs include the consulting, legal, and administrative services that enabled creation of the district, and the administrative costs to the city for implementing the district. State law provides for the reimbursement of these costs from the proceeds of the District once it is established and the FWCVB will coordinate the presentation for (34) payment/reimbursement of these costs to the FWTPIDC Board for their approval. It is estimated that these costs will total less than $xxx,xxx. Ongoing Administrative Costs for the PID Similarly, it is understood by both the FWTPIDC and by the FWCVB that there are certain ongoing administrative costs for operation of the district. 'these costs include the consulting, legal, and administrative services that enable sustaining the operation of the district, and the administrative costs to the city for processing payments of the assessments to the district. State law provides for the reimbursement of these costs from the proceeds of the District and the FWCVB will coordinate the presentation for payment/reimbursement of these costs to the FWTPIDC Board for their approval. It is estimated that these costs will total less than $xxx,xxx per year. General FWTPIDC Operations Obligations and Expenditures: The FWCVB is authorized to enter into contracts and otherwise obligate and spend FWTPIDC funds only in accordance with the FWTPIDC Board approved budget and plan. The FWCVB shall not incur obligations or indebtedness for the current or any future fiscal year in excess of its fund balance and/or anticipated revenues that will be available by the fiscal year in which the obligation must be paid. Requisitions to utilize FWTPIDC funds will only be sought by FWCVB staff for initiatives that meet the FWTPIDC ROI criteria as outlined in the FWTPID budget and operating plan. The FWCVB CFO must review all such expenditures to ensure compliance with this agreement and the approved FWTPIDC budget and plan. Staff utilizing FWTPIDC funds shall be bound by current FWCVB travel and expense policies. Maintenance of FWTPIDC Funds: All assessment funds received from the City of Fort Worth for the FWTPIDC shall be deposited in a bank account separate from all other FWCVB funds. Utilized banking institutions shall be FDIC insured and maintain a minimum of either a Moody's rating of "Baal" or higher, or a Standard & Poor's rating of "BBB+" or higher. An annual investment strategy and goals shall be presented to the FWTPIDC Board as part of the annual plan and budget approval process for funds that do not need to be reserved for maintenance and operation of the district. Insurance and Audit Services: The FWCVB shall secure insurance and financial and performance audit services for matters pertaining to the FWTPLDC. The representation contracts will generally go out through a RFP process in compliance with the city's MWBE guidelines. Recommendations will be brought to the FWTPIDC Board for approval. The completed performance and annual audit reports will be provided to the FWTPIDC Board and to the PID Admini-strator for the City of Fort Worth. (35) Staffing Pattern and Duties Summary The FWCVB will accomplish its contractual duties for the FWTPIDC through a mix of contracts with outside firths, very limited hiring of new staff, and utilization of existing FWCVB staff. The costs for each of these resources will be allocated to the FWTPID solely based on the percentage of time spent on FWTPID functions that are within the approved FWTPID budget and action plan. Below is a summary of the anticipated staffing pattern, duties, and costs related to the FWTPIDC with a total anticipated administrative cost of under Sxxx,xxx. Approvals from FW'FPIDC Board Approval of Budget, Operating Plan, and Amendments/Exceptions: The annual FWTPIDC budget and operating plan will be presented to the FWTPIDC Board for approval at a meeting at least 30 days prior to the start of each fiscal year, other than the initial fiscal year of the TPID. Proposed amendments or exceptions to the annual plan or to the ROI protocols may be presented to the FWTPIDC Board for approval at their quarterly meetings. If there is a very time sensitive matter, recommendations for amendments or exceptions may be presented to the FWTPIDC Board at other times through email or specially called meetings, in accordance with the FW ITIDC bylaws. For the purposes of this agreement, amendments may also include the addition or deletion of previously approved marketing or sales initiatives. Overall Goals for FWTPID Marketing and Promotion Initiatives: The goals of the FWTPID marketing and promotion initiatives will be outlined definitively in each year's annual plan that will be approved by the FWTPIDC Board. The target audience will include convention and meeting planners, business travelers, and leisure travelers. Requests for Exceptions to ROI Requirements: While the FWCVB does not anticipate the need to ask for exceptions to the ROI Requirement, it is possible that such a situation may present itself. For example, there may be a meeting that requires more incentives than the ROI in lodging nights would indicate (e.g.; conventions held by ASAE, MPI, etc.) but offers the city and its hotel sector access to entities that can bring much other needed conventions and groups to our area. In such scenarios and other meritorious situations, the FWCVB staff may bring such items up for consideration to the FWTPIDC Board for their review and consideration. A brief summary of the anticipated ROI and an explanation of the grounds for considering an exception will be provided to the FWTPIDC Board. Whether to grant such an exception will be at the discretion of the FWTPIDC Board. Similarly, the FWTPIDC Board, one of its members, or a funding hotel within the district may propose such an item for consideration by the FWTPIDC Board for its review and consideration. Shifting Between Expenditure Categories: The FWCVB has the authority to propose to the FWTPIDC Board a shifting of resources between categories for approved activities and efforts. Shifts between categories shall not exceed 10%. Similarly, the FWTPIDC Board on its own motion may propose, approve and require such a shifting of resources. Conflict of Interest Administration: It is possible that certain hotel members of the FWTPIDC, and in certain cases a majority of the board, will have an interest in a city-wide or (36) regional convention or meeting that may be marketed or provided incentives through the FWTPID. In such cases, the FWCVB shall work with the involved board member(s) to file the appropriate conflict of interest forms as outlined in the bylaws for the FWTPIDC and shall secure the needed votes to authorize the project as outlined in the bylaws for the FWTPIDC. Reports to the FWTPIDC Board Reports on Status of Projects/Expenditures: Quarterly and annual reports shall be provided to the FWTPIDC Board on the progress of the FWCVB staff in implementation of the FWTPID programs. These reports will indicate the status of progress on the approved plan, financial statements, bank balances, and a cash flow statement showing the timing of actual FWTPID revenues and expenses. The quarterly financial statement, balance sheet, and statement of activities shall be maintained and presented in compliance with General Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for non-profit corporations. These reports shall be similar to those currently produced by the FWCVB, incorporating the items contained in the FWTPIDC board approved plan and budget. The FWCVB staff will also provide courtesy copies of the quarterly and annual reports to the PID Administrator for the City of Fort Worth for further distribution. Financial Statements: The FW7'PID cash flow statement will show the timing in which actual assessments will be collected and when they will be spent. In accordance with standard practices, the FWCVB may book meetings that will be held a number of years later. In this case, a meeting may be booked, and an obligation made, in one year, but the incentive expense will not actualize until the meeting occurs (up to twenty years in the future). With this in mind, revenues will be shown over the ten-year term of the district, while expenses are shown over a twenty-year period (ten years past the initial ten year term of the PID). As the attached sample indicates, balances are carried forward, and all FWTPID assessments along with any earned interest will be proposed for expenditure over the booking period for eligible FWTPID marketing, events, and programs. In accordance with city and state law, any funds not obligated during the term of the district must be returned to the city for distribution back to the assessed properties. Access to FWTPID Materials: Reasonable access to all FWTPID related materials and information shall also be available to the FWTPIDC Board at all times. Courtesy copies of these reports will also be emailed to the Fort Worth City Manager for further appropriate distribution. Requests for access to FWTPID documents by other parties will be handled as required under the Texas Public Information Act. Orientation for the Fort Worth FWTPIDC Board: An annual orientation shall be done for the FWTPIDC Board on the administration of the FWTPID, board roles and responsibilities, and the responsibilities of the FWCVB under this contract.

On August 29, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 4837-08-2017, establishing the Tourism PID (Establishing Resolution). The City Council subsequently adopted Resolution Nos. 5264-08-2020 (August 18, 2020), 5382-04-2021 (April 13, 2021), Resolution No. 5467-09- 2021 (September 14, 2021), Resolution No. 5561-04-2022 (April 12, 2022), 5958-05-2024 (May 14,2024), 5998-08-2024 (August 27, 2024), 6098-05-2025 (May 13, 2025), and 6155-08-2025 (August 26, 2025) expanding the boundaries of the Tourism PID to include additional hotel properties (Expansion Resolutions). Expansion of the Tourism PID Boundaries and Petition: The current boundaries of the Tourism PID consist of noncontiguous areas authorized under Section 372.0035 of the Texas Local Government Code (Code) consisting solely of hotel properties with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping within the City of Fort Worth. A list of the hotels that are included within the boundaries of the Tourism PID is included in the Original and Expansion Resolutions and attached hereto. Senate Bill (SB) 804, 87th Texas Legislature (2021), which went into effect on June 14, 2021, revised Section 372.0121 of the Code to clarify the ability of cities to add new hotels into an existing Tourism PID. One of the new provisions affects the way in which the City calculates (or recalculates) the percentage threshold for adding new hotels into the Tourism PID. SB 804 requires the City to update and recalculate each of the percentage thresholds set forth below every time a new hotel property is added to the Tourism PID. Conversely, the prior version of Section 372.0121 only required the City to calculate the impact that the new hotel property had on the pre-existing thresholds. For example, under SB 804, the City has to update and recalculate the appraised value of each and every existing property in the Tourism PID each time that a new hotel is added; whereas, under the prior legislation, the City simply carried forward the values of the existing hotel properties from the year the hotel properties entered into the Tourism PID. Section 372.0121, as revised, allows the City Council to include additional properties in the Tourism PID if (i) the property is a hotel and (ii) a sufficient number of the record owners of the real property currently included and proposed to be included in the Tourism PID have consented to be included in the Tourism PID by signing the original petition to establish the district or by signing a petition or written consent to include property in the Tourism PID. The number of consenting record owners is sufficient if (1) the record owners own more than 60\% of appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID; and either (i) constitute more than 60\0/o of all record owners of taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID, or (ii) own, in aggregate, more than 60\% of the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment in the Tourism PID. If the addition of the new properties results in these numbers dropping at or below the 60\0/o threshold, then the properties may not be added. Inclusion of the Cambria Hotel, located at 925 Jerome St, Fort Worth, TX 76104, the Crescent West 7th, located at 3300 Camp Bowie Blvd, Fort Worth, TX 76107, and the Home 2 Suites Hotel, located at 6730 NW Loop 820, Fort Worth, TX 76135, meets both of the above -stated elements, therefore the hotels may be considered by the City Council for inclusion into the Tourism PID. First, the Cambria, the Crescent West 7th, and Home 2 Suites are hotel properties. With regard to the second element, the City Council found that the previous two petitions (original and expanded) complied with Section 372.005 (b-1) of the Code because they had met the necessary percentages. The property owners, or their duly authorized representatives, for the new hotel property, have signed a petition requesting inclusion within the Tourism PID. This results in an increase to 86.30% of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment, 72.04% for the area of all taxable real property liable for assessment, and 69.84% of record owners liable for assessment. Because the percentages are still above the 60.00% threshold, the properties meet the second element. Nature of the Improvements: The goals of the Tourism PID focus on increasing the economic impact and enhancing competitiveness in conventions, meetings, leisure and sports tourism, and increasing tourism -related economic activity at all times, including during economic downturns and as inventory grows. The Tourism PID projects include incentives and sales efforts, convention and sports marketing and promotion, site visits and familiarization tours, community arts grants, convention services, event funding applications, operations, research, and administration, all of which benefit the hotels within the Tourism PID. Method of Assessment and Apportionment of Costs: The assessment rate will be an amount equal to 2.00% of the consideration received from the occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel located within the Tourism PID, with such assessment to be collected in the same manner and in accordance with the same procedures as those established for the collection of the City's Hotel Occupancy Tax, as set forth in Chapter 32, Article II of the City Code, as amended. The entire costs of each improvement and service will be paid from the above -stated assessments and no City funds will be used to pay any portion of such costs unless such funding is approved by the City Council on a case -by -case basis. Estimated Costs of the Improvements and Services: The total estimated costs for the proposed services and improvements for the life of the Tourism PID (approximately two years) will be $16,000,000.00, which includes an estimated cost of $8,000,000.00 for the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Mid -Year Adjusted Budget. The updated and revised budget and two-year service plan is set forth in more detail below and attached. The final version will be subject to approval by the City Council. The estimated costs of the proposed improvements and services to be provided in subsequent years will be subject to future annual budget and service and assessment plans adopted by the City Council in accordance with the Code. The actual costs of improvements and services will be determined in accordance with the approved budget and service plan to be adopted by City Council and will be paid from Tourism PID assessments. Advisability: Staff recommends that the City Council find that these improvements and services are advisable because they will promote the interests of the City and confer a special benefit on the assessed properties within the expanded boundary of the Tourism PID. Staff recommendation: The Petition has been examined, verified, and found by City staff to meet the requirements of the Code. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council find that the Petition to include the above -stated three hotel properties meets the requirements of the Code. Tourism PID Mid -Year Adiustments The Tourism PID is funded through a 2% assessment on the consideration received from occupancy of any sleeping room furnished by a hotel in the Tourism PID. Due to the most recent forecast analysis, Tourism PID assessment revenue is now projected to be 3.23% or $250,000.00 more than originally budgeted. The budgeted expenses show an increase in each category line item for the current fiscal year service plan (see table below).
