Budget Narrative
Public Improvement District No. 12 - Chapel Hill
Management Fee
This increase reflects the continued growth of the community and the expanded management resources required
to ensure the PID operates at its highest potential. In the upcoming year, a major focus will be working with HOAs
to maintain common public areas within their community, and ensuring the PID management team continues
effective relationships with contracts for ongoing maintenance.
Capital Improvements
This category supports larger -scale projects tied to newly developed land. Priorities include revamping the butterfly
garden in Chapel Hill, maintaining a walking trail with a pond, and assisting development with general site
enhancements. A large fund balance is being maintained to support future build out expenses.
Common Area Maintenance
This category includes repairs and upgrades to existing features such as fountains, maintenance chemicals, and
replacement or addition of dog waste stations and other PID property affected by storms or vandalism. It also
includes a reserve to begin maintenance of newly deeded common areas as they are transferred.
Communications
Covers costs associated with monthly website maintenance, neighborhood mailings, and election -related
communications as a board is established. The website is currently undergoing a refresh to better serve residents.
Landscaping
This line item reflects the current maintenance contract for the areas under PID care. Services include dog waste
station servicing and bag refills, 36 mow cycles per year, and regular irrigation checks. Planned enhancements
include the removal of dead trees, mowing newly deeded or already maintained open spaces, refreshing the
butterfly garden, and addressing any additional expenses as more land is transferred to PID management. With the
neighborhood still under development, ongoing irrigation repairs will also be necessary due to potential
construction -related damage.
Utilities
For annual tree lighting as well as water for planters.
Security
This budget item was introduced mid -year last year and has been expanded to provide an estimated 1,800
additional patrol hours to supplement Fort Worth Police Department coverage within the PID.
Audit and Compliance
This line item includes costs associated with the annual review, such as the audit, ordinance filings, issuance of
required notices, postage, and newspaper publication requirements
