Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract in the amount of$307,015.00 for the first year with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Fort Worth to continue operation of the Safe Haven Youth Program at Polytechnic Martin Boys and Girls Club; and 2. Authorize the contract to be extended for up to four one-year periods without further action from City Council. DISCUSSION: The Safe Haven Youth Program began in 1991 as part of a Weed and Seed Grant, which expired September 30, 2000. Youth Safe Havens are places where children in targeted neighborhoods play and learn with other children without the fear of becoming victims of crime. This site is at Polytechnic Martin Boys and Girls Club, located at 3123 Avenue G. On October 9, 2001, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute a contract for the continued operation of the Youth Safe Haven Program to be operated by the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Fort Worth and the program has continued through Fiscal Year 2011. This Mayor and Council Communication will authorize the program to continue through Fiscal Year 2012 and for four additional years through Fiscal Year 2016 without further action by City Council. Funding in the amount of$307,015.00 will be appropriated in the Fiscal Year 2012 Crime Control and Prevention District (CCPD) budget, as adopted. The program provides youth with quality programs in character/leadership, educational activities, cultural arts, health/life skills and recreation. Program staff addresses additional educational, social, psychological and physical needs youth may experience. The program's focus and goal is to change lives by caring for the "whole child." This approach provides youth the tools they need to become responsible adults. This Agreement shall not be effective until October 1, 2011 and the City shall not be obligated to make any payments under this Agreement or be otherwise liable for any other obligations unless and until the City Council approves the above recommended item as part of the Fiscal Year 2012 adopted budget, and the budget becomes effective. Polytechnic Martin Safe Haven is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8.
