RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council

No 2844 with the United States of America, Army Corps of Engineers (COE) for the restoration of
the grounds at the former Van Zandt Army Reserve Training Center; and

DISCUSSION
On November 14, 1952, the City of Fort Worth en#ered into a lease with COE for the Van Zandt Army
Reserve Training Center The lease was for one-year with automatic one-year extensions until June
30, 2003
In April 2000, per the terms of the lease agreement, the COE notified City staff of their intent to
terminate the lease The lease terms give the City the option of requiring the property to be restored by
the COE to as good condition as existed at the time of entering into the lease Various departmental
staff members conducted inspections of the facilities to assess the conditions of the buildings and
property It was determined that it would be in the City's best interest to require the COE to have the
structures demolished and restored to preexisting conditions On August 9, 2001, a letter was sent to
the Mayor and City Council outlining the condition of the buildings and property
The COE has demolished the structure and in its opinion, restored the premises to the standards as
required under the lease The Parks and Community Services Department does not concur with the
COE's assessment. Based on information provided by the Parks and Community Services
Department, the COE determined that it would cost $21,664 to restore the site as requested At the
request of COE, City staff entered into negotiations with the COE to reduce the restoration cost. The
Parks and Community Services Department and the COE agreed that the COE would provide the
necessary funds to purchase the materials to restore the site. and the Parks and Community Services
Department would provide the labor and oversee the restoration of the site for a total cost of $10,832
Once funds ,are received from the COE, the lease will be terminated with the COE and the City
thereafter will be relieved from any further responsibility under the lease terms
