5 Authorize the City Manager to include the FGNMB Neighborhood Revitalization Plan in the City's
Consolidated Plan
DISCUSSION
The purpose of the Model Blocks Program is to organize and empower neighborhoods so that they may
effectively identify issues and work toward solutions, promote public-private partnerships in the
revitalization process, and offer integrated services to address the individual needs of their
neighborhoods On August 10, 1999, Far Greater Northside received the City's tenth Model Blocks
award of $1 2 million The Far Greater Northside Historical Neighborhood Association (FGNHNA) was
the applicant. FGNHNA is tax-exempt under 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code and was certified
as a Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO) by the City of Fort Worth on August 27,
1999 It is in the process of applying to become a Community Based Development Organization
(CBDO)
Summary of the Model Blocks Plan.
Boundaries
The Far Greater Northside Model Blocks Area is bounded on the north by Long Avenue, on the east by
the alley east of Lincoln Avenue, on the west by the alley west of Hanna Avenue, and on the south by
30th Street, Loving Avenue, 31st Street and Chestnut Avenue (see attached map) The neighborhood
is two blocks from the Historic Stockyards, adjacent to Meacham Airport, and is in close proximity to the
Alliance corridor and the North Main corridor
Needs Assessment
According to the 1990 census, a large percentage of the residents of this area are low-to-moderate
income About 40% of the population in the area lived below poverty level, almost three times that of the
City at large Seventeen percent of the civilian workforce was unemployed, almost twice as that for the
City
Far Greater Northside has long suffered from problems including dilapidated housing, vacant
properties, insufficient infrastructure, lack of job opportunities, and social ills Despite these problems
facing the neighborhood, Far Greater Northside has numerous strengths that hold the community
together and continue to improve the quality of life of its residents. These strengths include a 501(c)3
neighborhood association (FGNHNA), the historic importance of the neighborhood in the development of
Fort Worth, high percentage of homeownership (58 7% in 1999), good work ethics, concerned citizens,
and availability of community resources such as schools, churches, parks, and community centers
Moreover,. Far Greater Northside's proximity to major employment centers -downtown, Alliance
Corridor and the thriving commercial development in the Stockyards and North Main Corridor -provide
an enormous opportunity for local economic development. The housing stock is still strong despite its
age and need for repairs

Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy
The revitalization strategy identifies issues in four areas housing, public facilities, economic development
and public services There are numerous goals detailed under each of these areas in the FGNMB plan
In developing the strategies, FGNHNA worked with area stakeholders such as schools, community
groups, non-profit organizations, businesses and financial institutions.
The following are the major strategies utilizing the $1.2 million Model Blocks funds In parenthesis are
the objectives of the program within atwo-year time frame
a) Build neighborhood capacity through designation of the FGNHNA as a CHDO and CBDO to
implement neighborhood improvement projects,
b) Provide homeownership programs (8 homes);
c) Rehabilitate owner-occupied homes (15 homes),
d) Improve North Tri-Ethnic Center to provide a learning center for adults and youth,
e) Reconstruct streets (McKinley Avenue between 30th and 31st Streets, 30th Street between
McKinley and Prairie Avenues),
f) Improve Lincoln Park facilities (install 2 water fountains),
g) Beautify neighborhoods through landscaping, and
h) Conduct a market study to provide direction and strategies for economic development.
Also included in the Model Blocks Plan are other activities that are equally important to the
neighborhood However, the FGNHNA will have to raise funds from other sources and work with other
organizations to implement these strategies These activities include
a) Minor home repairs,
b) Neighborhood clean-ups,
c) Businesses attraction,
d) Job development;
e) Neighborhood block crime watch/citizen on patrol,
f) Police storefront;
g) Drug and alcohol prevention/treatment programs,
h) Youth programs (tutoring and swimming classes), and
i) Job training
