DISCUSSION:
In 2006,the City of Fort Worth acquired property located south of the intersection of West Vickery,
Boulevard and Rutledge Street for right-of-way for the Chisholm Trail Parkway(Parkway). Thee acquisition
included a 1.495 acre tract(City Tract)that was excess Iproperty,due to the Parkway cutting off City
Tracts'access,to a right-of-way. Because the City Tract does not have right-olf-w,ay access; it cannot be
platted or developed independently.
After the Parkway was constructed, the City was approached by Events Facilities,Fort Worth, Inc,. (EFFW)
with a request to purchase the City Tract since it is adjacent to one of its properties. As part of EFFWs
consideration for the purchase of the City Tract, EFFW offered to pay the purchase price and closing costs
Log name: 17PURCHASESALE1.10ENSE Page I of 2
for the City to purchase property on Bryce Avenue near Montgomery(Bryce Tract)from Joan G. Gambill
and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Successor Trustee of the Lois Eldredge Griffin
Testamentary Trust for the benefit of'Jloan Griffin Gambill,which the City will purchase under a Purchase
Agreement assigned to the City. The Bryce Tract is adjacent to the Will Rogers Facility and is needed by
the City of Fort Worth's Public Events Department for the storage of materials to support agricultural and
livestock events at Willl Rogers and for future development.
In an effort to move the discussions forward, the City obtained appraisals of both tracts, Because the City
acquired property for the Parkway under rules promulgated by the Texas Department of Transportation
(TxDOT),the City requested that the appraiser appraise the City Tract under TOOT rules, as if it was a
part of an adjoining tract with access to a right-of-way. The appraised value of the City Tract is
$716,254.00. The appraised value of the Bryce Tract is$318,700.00. Due to the difference in value,
EFFW has proposed entering into a 15 year License Agreement with the City on its property located near
West Vickery Boulevard that would allow the City to store dlirt and other items necessary foir the operation
of the Will Rogers Facility., The City would receive a License Fee credit for the difference in the value of
the two tracts. The 15 year License Agreement in the amount of$397,544.00 will be a deferred outflow
that will be expensed at$26,,502.93 per year over the life of the Agreement. A map of the Bryce Tract and
the City Tract is attached.
