DISCUSSION
On June 13 2006 (M&C G-15223) the City Council approved the appropriation and transfer of $870 000
from funds earmarked in the General Fund for renovation projects in City Hall and the City Hall Annex. The
total budget originally identified for the renovation project was $1,249 000 Renovation work has been
completed for the Permit Center with the exception of the Fire Prevention and Tree Preservation
sections Work has also been completed for the City Secretary and Community Relations areas. Work is in
progress on the Budget and Governmental Relations areas and has recently began in the Mayor and
Council area The revised cost estimate for this project has decreased to $1,246 000 Since only
$870 000 was appropriated initially this M&C proposes to appropriate funds for the remaining $376 000
required to complete the renovation with a transfer from the Capital Projects Reserve Fund The requested
funding will provide for building materials furnishings, equipment, furniture information technology
modifications, and related moving expenses
The project is physically located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 9 but will serve Fort Worth residents in all Council
Districts.
