The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to take actions to distribute and !
appropriate income from the City's mineral revenue trust fund so that the money can be used to fund
eligible projects.
In 2008, the City Council adopted amendments to the City's Financial Management Policy Statements
(FMPS) to establish a Mineral Revenue Trust Fund known as The Fort Worth Permanent Fund (M&C G-
16013). The City Council subsequently authorized executing an Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 4
to serve as corporate Trustee (M&C P-11467) and all of the accumulated money that had been i
designated for inclusion in the Trust was transferred to Wells Fargo in June 2013.
G
In accordance with the terms of the written Trust Agreement and the FMPS, the Fund is maintained as a
consolidated account and divided into five sub-accounts. Money in the Trust is invested in accordance
with the City Council adopted Investment Policy and Strategy for the Fund (M&Cs G-17857 and G-18244).
Under the terms of the Trust Agreement, the Trustee works with City's Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to
determine the amount of income available for distribution each year. In accordance with the FMPS, a
recommendation is made to the City Council for distribution procedures for the different funds of the Trust
consistent with the goal to preserve, as well as increase, the principal of the Trust. Expenditures of
distributed income must meet criteria in the FMPS, with the dollars generally being available only for
funding one-time program initiatives, capital projects that comply with certain listed requirements and arts
programming. i
Wells Fargo has worked with the CFO to identify available income and Staff in the Financial Management
Services Department has consulted with other City departments to develop recommendations regarding
allocation of the distributable income. V
The following actions are recommended for available Trust income in each of the designated sub- I
accounts:
1. The Aviation Endowment Gas Lease Fund - Take a distribution of all available income totaling
$358,809.49 for use toward the construction of box hangars at Spinks Airport. I
2. The Park System Endowment Gas Lease Fund -Take a distribution of all available income totaling j
$178,329.22 ($111,346.62 from restricted parks; $66,982.60 from unrestricted parks) for use toward
capital needs.
3. The Water and Sewer Endowment Gas Lease Fund - Take a distribution of all available income totaling
$76,882.21 for use toward water and sewer infrastructure projects.
4. The General Endowment Gas Lease Fund - Take a distribution of all available income totaling
$213,691.54 for the purpose of funding arts programming in accordance with City Council approved
amendments to the FMPS in 2013 (M&C G-18067).
Note: The Nature Center Endowment Gas Lease Fund does not currently have any income available for
I
distribution.
