in Bridge Street
The 1973-75 Capital Improvements Program provides for improvements to Bridge
Street from Oakland to Weiler (page A-99) as approved in the 1970 bond election.
This will provide improved traffic flow and drainage facilities for Nolan High
School, White Lake Hills Addition and Woodhaven Country Club Estates Addition.
The new 12" water supply main will constitute auxiliary supply to both Woodhaven
Country Club Estates and White Lake Hills Additions and strengthen reliability
in the vicinity of these areas. The contract also includes other water main
adjustments necessary for the street improvement.
Existing Conditions
Bridge Street is a major thoroughfare with a present traffic count of 7,679
vehicles per day. The existing street is approximately 20 feet wide, substandard
grade asphalt pavement without curb and gutter.
Improvements
The improvements will consist of widening to a 44-foot width by construction
of 7" thick reinforced concrete pavement, with 7" high concrete curb, on a
6" lime stabilized subgrade, along with necessary storm sewer appurtenances,
and 6" concrete driveways. The street will be widened to 56-foot width at
Nolan High School and Blue Lake Drive to provide left-turn lanes to the
school and White Lake Hills Addition.
The water supply main will consist of construction of approximately 3,900 feet
of 12-inch and 424 feet of 8-inch water main.
Due to the amount of excavation and fill necessary prior to the water line
inst?ll ation, the contract is designed to be let to the overall lowest bidder.
In this manner, phases of the street and storm drain construction and water
main construction will be complementary to each other, resulting in an overall
lower cost to the City and a shorter completion time.

On-Ramp from Bridge Street to Turnpike
It was originally proposed that an entrance from Bridge Street to the Turnpike
be accomplished. However, this contract does not provide for construction of
such a connection for the reasons outlined below. As a condition of approval of
such a connection, the Turnpike Authority would require that:
1) The City pay for the Turnpike Authority's Consulting Civil Engineers
to report on the feasibility of the project and their consulting
Traffic Engineers to study the traffic revenue implications; estimated
to include a delay of approximately four (4) months and a cost of
$12,000.
2) The report of the Engineers be presented to the Authority, and if
approved by it, be presented to the City Council for its approval.
3) Plans and specifications be approved by the Turnpike Authority.
4) An agreement between the City and the Authority be executed
embodying the proposals mentioned above.
5) The Texas Highway Department approve the plans and specifications
for the construction.
Due to the location of the Toll Gates, the only availabld 'location for an entranc
ramp from Bridge Street onto the Turnpike would be at Blue Lake Drive.
The Texas Highway Department has indicated that the location of an entrance
ramp at Blue Lake Drive is too close to the exit ramp at Oakland and would need
to be torn out when the Turnpike becomes a part of the State Highway System
and rebuilt to meet current standards.
The Dallas-Fort Worth Turnpike is projected to be paid out sometime in 1977, or
possibly earlier, provided no further major capital expenditures are made.
There is a study being made by the Turnpike Authority concerning the pro-
posed Trinity Turnpike and its effect on the existing Dallas-Fort Worth
Turnpike. If the Trinity Toll Road should be tied to the existing Toll Road,
then another set of circumstances would prevail.
An entrance from Bridge Street onto the Turnpike at Blue Lake Drive is estimated
to cost the City approximately $100,000. If built at this time, it might
have to be torn out in a matter of four years or less.
Due to the uncertainties and complicating factors described above, the proposed
on-ramp is not included in this contract.

Proposed Assessments and Enhancement Appraisals
There are several unusual conditions attending this project as related to
assessment of costs to adjacent, benefitted property. The Texas Turnpike
through-lanes abut Bridge Street on the south throughout the entire length.
By contractual agreement, no assessments can be levied against the Turnpike
Authority. Along the north side of the project, most of the abutting property
frontage is a strip of land varying from 20 feet to 50 feet in width and occupied
by a 20-inch high pressure gas line owned by Old Ocean Fuel Company. The gas
line is a part of the fuel supply used for generation of electricity in this area
by Texas Electric Service Company. Only three other property ownerships appear
along the north side of this project: (1) the Fort Worth Water Department,
(2) Tommy Moore Tower Company, and (3) Woodhaven Country Club Estates.
In order to obtain an independent appraisal of the enhancement of value of
property resulting from the proposed paving improvement, Mr. Ross E. Jones,
SRA SR/WA, was engaged to make a study. The appraisal report indicates that
the proposed new street will not benefit the narrow strip of land owned by
the Old Ocean Fuel Company nor will the improvements change the use of this
property. Therefore, no special benefits or assessments are proposed.
Assessments proposed against Woodhaven Country Club Estates are in accordance
with normal City policy, and credits have been allowed where portions of the
property are not accessible from Bridge Street due to the difference in grade
between adjacent property and the street. The owners of this property have no
objection to the proposed assessment.

Following normal assessment policies, the proposed assessment for the
Tommy Moore Tower Company property is $7,352.40 for pavement and curb plus
$272.80 for driveway, for a total of $7,625.20. In keeping with standard
procedure, Mr. Moore was notified of the proposed assessment following
receipt of bids. Due to his objection to the proposed assessment, the appraiser
was asked to review this property also. The appraisal report indicates that
the Tommy Moore Tower Company property will be enhanced in value by an amount
of $25,000.
Project Cost and Financing
Based on the low. bid, $15,144.70 will be assessed against abutting property
owners, to be provided by a bond fund transfer from Revolving Fund
Unspecified. Total construction, inspection engineering and administrative
salaries and miscellaneous costs to the City for street and storm drain
improvements will be approximately $589,226.09, for which sufficient funds
are available in Project Account No. 104-23000-131. Cost to the City for
Water Facilities is $109,795.68 to be provided for by a bond fund transfer
from Major Mains Unspecified Projects.

On Monday, March 19, 1973, at 7:30 P.M., a Neighborhood Meeting was conducted
by the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department in the Public Works
Conference Room, for the street and water facilities improvements on Bridge
Street from Oakland Boulevard to Weiler Boulevard,
Procedures concerning proposed improvements, type of improvements, owner
participation in cost, credits to owners and methods of payment were explained
by Odell Schmidt to the five persons in attendance.
After the above explanation, the meeting was opened for questions.
Mr. Garrett Morris and Mr. Dean Conlin, representing Woodhaven Country Club
Estates, stated that they had no further questions and were satisfied with the
proposed assessments.
Mr. John B. Honts, an attorney, representing Mr. and Mrs. Tommy Moore, owners
of Tract 1F, E. Jones Survey, stated that his clients had no idea that there
would be an assessment. He was informed that almost all street improvement
in the City of Fort Worth is accomplished on an assessment basis. Mr. Honts
then stated that their appraiser stated that the property would-not be enhanced
._as a result of the proposed improvements. He was informed that the City Council
will- not accept verbal statements of another person at the Benefit Hearing, but
requires a written report from the appraiser and' in most cases in the past, the
appraiser has been present at the hearing.
Mrs. Tommy Moore, who was also present, stated that at the time they ALve the
City the Construction Easements, the Land Office informed them that their drive-
ways would be constructed at no expense to them. Mrs. Moore°s attention was
called to M & C L-4215, 1/22/73, whereby the City obtainedthe easements for a
total consideration of $13,500.00 and that in a conference with the Land Office
prior to this meeting, no,mention was made of open agreements.
Several general items were discussed and the meeting was adjourned.
