I I.
'rhe City Cormc-il, from the evidence, finds that the assessments herein levied should be made and levied
against the respective parcels of property abutting upon the said portions of streets, avenues and public places
and against the owners of such property,and that such assessments and charges are right and proper and are
substantially in proportion to the benefits to the respective parcels of property by means of the improvements
n the unit for which such assessments are levied,and establish substantial justice and equality and uniformity
between the respective owners of the respective properties, and between all parties concerned, considering the
Lrenefits received and burdens imposed, and further finds that in each case the abutting property assessed is
specially benefited in enhanced value to the said property by means of the said improvements in the unit upon
which the particular property abuts and for which assessment is levied and charge made, in a sum in excess of
the said assessment and charge made against the same by this ordinance,and further finds that the apportion-
ment of the cost of the improvements is in accordance with the law in force in this City, and the proceedings of
the Cite heretofore had with reference to said improvements, and is in all respects valid and regular.
III.
There shall be, and is hereby, levied and assessed against the parcels of property herein below mentioned,
and against the real and true owners thereof- (whether such owners be correctl%- named herein or not) the sums of
money itemized l)elow opposite the description of the respective parcels of property and the several amounts
assessed against the same, and the owners thereof, as far as such owners are known, being as follows:
IV.
Where more than one person, firm or corporation owns an interest in any property above described,each
said person, firm or corporation shall be personally liable only for its,her or his pro rata of the total assessment
against such property in proportion as its, his or her respective interest bears to the total ownership of such
property, and its, his or respective interest in such property may be released from the assessment lien upon pay-
ment of such proportionate sum.
V.
The several sums above mentioned and assessed against the said parcels of property, and the owners
thereof, and interest thereon at the rate of six per cent (6�4) per annum, together with reasonable attorney's
fees and costs of collection, if incurred,are hereby declared to be and are made a lien upon the respective parcels
of property r.gainst which the same are assessed, and a personal liability and charge against the real and true
owners of such property, whether such owners be correctly named herein or not, and the said liens shall be and
constitute the first enforceable lien and claim against the property on which such assessments are levied, and
shall be a first and paramount lien thereon, superior to all other liens and claims, except State, County, School
District and City ad valorem taxes.
The sums so assessed against the abutting property and the owners thereof shall be and become due and
payable as follows, to-wit: in five (5) equal installments,due respectively on or before thirty (30) days,one (1),
two (2), three (3), and four (4) years from the date of completion and acceptance of the improvements in the
respective unit, and the assessments against the property abutting upon the remaining units shall be and become
due and payable in such installments after the date of the completion and acceptance of such respective units,and
shall bear interest from said date at the rate of six per cent (61-r) per annum,payable annually with each install-
ment, except as to the first installment, which shall be due and payable at the maturity thereof, so that upon the
completion and acceptance of the improvements in a particular unit, assessments against the property abutting
upon such completed and accepted unit shall be and become due and payable in such installments, and with
interest from the date of such completion and acceptance. Provided, however, that any owner shall have the
right to pay the entire assessment, or any installment thereof, before maturity by payment of principal and
accrued interest, and provided further that if default shall be made in the payment of principal or interest
promptly as the same matures, then the entire amount of the assessment upon which such default is made shall,
at the option of said City of Fort Worth,or its assigns, be and become immediately due and payable, and shall be
collectable, together with reasonable attorney's fees and cost of collection, if incurred, PROVIDED, however,
that acting through its duly authorized Director of Public Works the City of Fort Worth retains the right to
authorize payment of the sums assesed against abutting property upon such completed and accepted unit in not
more than forty-eight (48) equal regular monthly installments of not less than $9.00 each, the first of such
installments to become due and payable not more than thirty (30) days after the completion and acceptance by
the City of the particular unit. PROVIDED FURTHER, that the Citv Attorney is hereby empowered to authorize
payments of said sums of lesser installments and/or over a longer period of time in cases in which the Director
of Public Works has previously determined that an extreme financial hardship upon the property owner will
otherwise result;and PROVIDED FURTHER,that such method of payments shall be authorized only in instances
where the owner or owners of property abutting upon such completed and accepted unit shall have executed and
delivered to the City of Fort Worth a lawful, valid and binding note and mechanic's and materialman's contract
upon forms supplied by the City granting a mechanic's lien upon and conveying the said abutting property in
trust to secure the payment by said owner or owners according to the terms thereof of the sums assessed against
such propert}y.
If default shall be made in the payment of any assessment, collection thereof shall be enforced either by
the sale of the property by the Assessor and Collector of Taxes of said City as near as possible in the same man-
ner provided for the sale of property for the non-payment of ad valorem taxes, or at the option of the City of
Fort Worth, or its assigns, payment of said sums shall be enforced by suit in any court of competent jurisdic-
tion, or as provided in any mechanic's or materialman's contract as aforesaid, and said City shall exercise all of
its lawful powers to aid in the enforcement and collection of said assessments.
VII.
The total amount assessed against the respective parcels of abutting property, and the owners thereof, is
in accordance with the proceedings of the City relating to said improvements and assessments thereof, and is
less than the proportion of the cost allowed and permitted by the law in force in the City.
VIII.
Although the aforementioned charges have been fixed, levied, and assessed in the respective amounts
hereinabove stated, the City Council does hereby reserve onto itself the right to reduce the aforementioned
assessments by allowing credits to certain property owners where deemed appropriate.Notwithstanding the City
Council has herein reserved the right to issue credits, it shall not be required to issue credits,and will not do so,
if same would result in any equity and/or unjust discrimination.
The principal amount of each of the several assessment certificates to be issued the City of Fort Worth,
Texas,as hereinafter provided,shall be fixed and determined by deducting from the amount of any assessment
hereinabove levied such amount or amounts, if any,as may hereafter be allowed by the City Council as a credit
against the respective assessments.
1X.
For the purpose of evidencing the several.sums assessed against the respective parcels of abutting prop-
erty and the owners thereof, and the time and terms of payment, and to aid in the enforcement and collection
thereof, assignable certificates in the principal amount of the respective assessments less the amount of any re-
spective credit allowed thereon, shall be issued by the City of Fort Worth, Texas, upon completion and accept-

mistake in describing any property, or in giving the name of the owner, shall invalidate or in anywise impair
such certificate, to the assessments levied.
The certificates shall provide substantially that if same shall not be paid promptly upon maturity, then
they shall be collectable, with reasonable attorne.'s fees and costs of collection, if incurred, and shall provide
substantially that the amounts evidenced thereby shall be paid to the Assessor and Collector of Taxes of the

making such pavment. Such payments by the Treasurer shall be receipted for the holder of such certificate in
writing and by surrender thereof when the principal, together with accrued interest and all costs of collection
and reasonable attorney's fees, if incurred, have been paid in full.

stantially in accordance with the above and other additional recitals pertinent or appropriate thereof, and it
shall not be necessary that the recitals be in the exact form above set forth, but the substance thereof shall be
sufficient. The fact that such improvements may be omitted on any portion of any of said units adjacent to any
premises exempt from the lien of such assessments shall not in anywise invalidate, affect or impair the lien of
such assessments upon other premises.

actual construction of the project during Elis peak business period which is during
winter and early spring months. He stated that he is not opposed to the paving Of

struction could jeopardize his busirless.
A strip of property owned by the Park Department is recta iced for widening Seminary

Honorable Mayor and Council Members of the City of Ft. Worth
Gentlemen:
I am Albert Hill, spokesman for the board of Trustees;
representing the Carter Park Methodist Church, 1400 E. Seminary Dr.
The property in Bast Seminary Drive ]mown as Block #4 has less
presoribed by the City of Ft. worth as being zoned for A-1 single
family residence or for a Church; therefore the only oonstruction
allowed upder this would be non-oommercial ander this zoning
restriction.
It cannot therefore be considered that the value of this land
will be enhanoed what so ever by the widening, surbing, guttering
and re-paving of East Seminary Drive; in fact, it will be oreeting
a heavier and faster traffic problem on this street whieh will be
one more factor contributing to the degrading of the value on this
residential zoned property.
Our property is practically surrounded by Commercial zoned and
Apartment zoned land which we have no doubt will be greatly
ben4fited by enhancing the value of their Co®ereially zoned lane
through the increased amount of traffic and providing a better
access to their place of business. We see no partiouVw reason
for their of jootion to this asseeement.
The east portion, approximately 2601 , of our frontage would
not be benefited what so ever from paving, curbing and buttering
as there is a sharp drop from this point on down the hill to
Sycamore Creek; in fact , in the future we could not have ingress
or egress to the property from Seminary Dr. since there is a
proposed very steep dr4luage saseutent to be installed and
oontrolled by the City of Ft . Worth,
The need for the proposed improvements on Bast Seminary is
recognised but were not requested by us as the street is alrealy
paved and masts our needs. Due to the fact that our residentially
zoned property will not be benefited by these improvements as we
would be unable to have &cases to our property in the future ;
due to the City easement blocking us from Seminary Drive. Since
it is also a fact that we are practically surrounded by Commercial
and Apartment zoned areas which deorease instead of enhancing the
value of the subject property; it is hoped that each member of the
Connell will agree that the proposed paving assessment for the
entire length of block #4 on Seminary Drive can be set aside.
respectfully, OFFICIAL RECORD
CITY SECRETARY
Albert Hili. FT. WORTH, TOL.
