HEARING:
SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of an Interlocal Agreement with the City of Arlington for a
Minimum Annual Amount of $200,000.00 for Detention Services with Four One -Year
Automatic Renewal Terms for the Police Department
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council authorize execution of an Interlocal Agreement with the City of
Arlington for a minimum annual amount of $200,000.00 for detention services with four one-year
automatic renewal terms for the Police Department.
DISCUSSION:
The Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD) operates a holding facility for arrested persons awaiting
magistration or transfer to the Tarrant County Jail. The Tarrant County Jail experiences
overcrowding on a regular basis, which prevents the transfer of arrested persons from the FWPD
holding facility to the Tarrant County Jail.
To help alleviate potential overcrowding at the FWPD holding facility, this Mayor and Council
Communication (M&C) requests City Council authorization to execute an interlocal agreement with
the City of Arlington (COA) for detention services. The Interlocal Agreement with COA will be for
housing FWPD prisoners following magistration when space is not available at the Tarrant County
Jail.
The COA interlocal agreement will reserve 913 beds per year (approximately 2.5 beds per day) for
the exclusive use of the City of Fort Worth (Fort Worth), for an annual minimum amount of
$200,000.00. COA will transport prisoners from the FWPD holding facility to the COA detention
facility and will provide secure custody, care, and safekeeping of prisoners, in accordance with state
and local law. COA shall provide the necessary detention officers and other employees to properly
supervise and operate the detention facility. COA shall provide routine medical services to all
prisoners housed at the detention facility and transport to local area hospitals for life -threatening
emergencies. COA will provide guard services for up to two hours or until a relieving officer from
FWPD arrives.
If City Council approves this M&C, FWPD will secure detention services with COA to alleviate
potential overcrowding at the FWPD holding facility.
Funding is budgeted in the General Operating & Maintenance category in the General Fund for the
Police Department.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER: An administrative change order or increase may be made by
the City Manager up to the amount allowed by relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does
not require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated.
AGREEMENT TERM: Upon City Council approval, the interlocal agreement with COA will begin
upon execution and expire May 31, 2027.
RENEWAL OPTIONS: The Agreement may be renewed for up to four (4) one-year automatic
renewal terms. This action does not require specific City Council approval, provided that the City

Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal period.
The compensation to COA for renewal terms may be adjusted annually to account for increases in
COA detention facility operating and capital costs.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as
previously appropriated, in the General Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation
and execution of the contract. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Police Department has the
responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
