SUBJECT:  

Approve the Public Events Department's Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (COUNCIL DISTRICTS 7 and 9)  


RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached Five Year Capital Improvement Plan for the Public Events Department for Fiscal Years 2017 - 2021.

 
DISCUSSION:

The Public Events Department's Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) represents the current plan for projects at the Will Rogers Memorial Center (WRMC), Fort Worth Convention Center (FWCC), Cowtown Coliseum and the new Multi-Purpose Arena for Fiscal Year 2017-2021.  The plan documents anticipated capital projects and will be adjusted and updated each year as funds become available and to address critical needs.  The plan represents a snapshot in time, and is subject to change as facility issues arise.  This year's plan is an update and extension of a plan previously approved by the City Council for Fiscal Years 2016-2020 (M&C G-18635).

The Public Events Department's Five Year CIP represents the strategy to ensure that the facilities are upgraded and maintained in order to meet the needs of the facility users and achieve the Department's Mission to provide an exceptional customer experience, using available funding for each year within the five year plan.  The criteria for the plan were based on strategic communication with clients, completion of client surveys, visits to competing facilities, identification of aging systems and infrastructure, plus public/private partnerships.

The planned expenditures over the five years will fall into one of the following categories:  

  • Fort Worth Convention Center Major Renovations
  • Fort Worth Convention Center Minor Renovations
  • Will Rogers Memorial Center Major Renovations
  • Will Rogers Memorial Center Minor Renovations
  • Cowtown Coliseum Renovations and Repairs
  • New Facilities (Fort Worth Multipurpose Arena and FWCC Expansion)
  • Capital Outlays (Vehicle and Equipment Replacement and Third-Party Facility Assessments)

The City Council approved Fiscal Year 2017 appropriations associated with this CIP on September 13, 2016 by adoption of Ordinance No. 22394-09-2016 along with appropriation of funds for the City's 2016-2017 capital improvements plans.

The projects included in this CIP are located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 7 and 9, but serve ALL DISTRICTS.

This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
