The City of Fort Worth has contracted with the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs

Tarrant County provides funding for the operation of two CAP centers. The Far Southeast CAP
Center located at 1601 East Lamar Boulevard in Arlington and the Far Northwest CAP Center located
at 920 Roberts Cut Off in River Oaks, are located outside the City limits of Fort Worth. On October
13, 2009, (M&C C-23841)the City Council approved the execution of a five year lease agreement
with Andrew-Dillingham, LTD, for the operation of the Far Southeast CAP Center. This M&C therefore
seeks authorization to enter a Lease Agreement for the Far Northwest CAP Center only. Expenses
for the operation of the CAP Centers include:
1. Lease for the Far Southeast CAP Center of$1,750.00 per month or$21,000.00 for the year,
including utilities; and
2. Lease for the Far Northwest CAP Center of$877.89 per month or$10,534.68 for the year, not
including utilities.
Expenses for rent, electricity, telephone services, natural gas, water and wastewater and minor
repairs at both centers over the $30,000.00 will be funded by the Community Services Block Grant.
Services provided at the two centers include case management, information and referral services,
client intake and assessment, emergency assistance, including the Comprehensive Energy
Assistance Program and other social services to low income households in southeast and northwest
