ITEM # �3
HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
ROGER NELSON, CITY MANAGER&
SEPTEMBER 19, 2000
CONSIDER RENEWAL OF LEASE OF MEADOWMERE PARK
FROM THE U. S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS
City Council to consider approval of a lease agreement for Meadowmere Park with the
U. S. Army Corps of Engineers.
FUNDING SOURCE:
No funds are required for the lease of Corps of Engineers property.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council approved the original lease of approximately 80 acres at Meadowmere
Park at the July 7, 1987 meeting and renewed the lease at the May 2, 1995 meeting.
The proposed renewal agreement is for a 25 -year term.
Meadowmere Park is located in northwest Grapevine and is approximately 160 acres in
size. The City Council approved a concept plan of the entire park at the October 6,
1998 meeting. However, Phase 1 development of the park only encompasses the 80
acres the City currently leases from the Corps of Engineers. Therefore, Staff
recommends the City Council renew the existing 80 acre lease for Meadowmere Park,
and amend the lease to include the remaining 80 acres when funds are available to
complete development of Meadowmere Park.
The City Attorney has reviewed the agreement and concurs with the contents of the
document. A copy of the lease is attached for your review.

and regulations and with all applicable laws, ordinances, and
regulations of the state, county, and municipality wherein the

the intent of the Development Plan. The rates and prices charged
by the Lessee or its sub -lessees or concessionaires shall be

law.

All monies received by the Lessee from operations conducted
on the premises, including, but not limited to, entrance,
admission and user fees and rental or other consideration
received from its concessionaires, may be utilized by the Lessee

maintain accurate records and accounts and provide an annual
statement of receipts and expenditures to the District Engineer.
Annual or weekly entrance fees not collected on the Project,
which also are honored at other recreational areas operated by
the Lessee, are excluded from this requirement. The District
Engineer shall have the right to perform audits or to require the
Lessee to audit the records and accounts of the Lessee, third

lessees and concessionaires to have insurance from a reputable
insurance carrier as set out above.
d. The District Engineer may require closure of any or all
of the premises during any period for which the Lessee and/or its
sub -lessees and concessionaires do not have the required
insurance coverage.

designate. In either event, if the Lessee shall fail or neglect
to remove said property and restore the premises, then, at the
option of the District Engineer, said property shall either
become the property of the United States without compensation
therefor, or the District Engineer may cause the property to be
removed and no claim for damages against the United States or its
officers or agents shall be created by or made on account of such

Lessee will be notified of any non-compliance, which notice shall
be in writing or shall be confirmed in writing, giving a period
of time in which to correct the non-compliance. Failure to
satisfactorily correct any substantial or persistent non-

(i) A senior company official in charge at the
Lessee's location involved; or
d. For Lessee claims of $100,000 or less, the District
Engineer must, if requested in writing by the Lessee, render a
decision within 60 days of the request. For Lessee -certified
claims over $100,000, the District Engineer must, within 60 days,
decide the claim or notify the Lessee of the date by which the
decision will he made.

the Lessee appeals or files a suit as provided in the Act.
f. At the time a claim by the Lessee is submitted to the
District Engineer or a claim by the Government is presented to
the Lessee, the parties, by mutual consent, may agree to use
alternative means of dispute resolution. When using alternate
dispute resolution procedures, any claim, regardless of amount,
shall be accompanied by the certificate described in paragraph
c.(2) of this clause, and executed in accordance with paragraph
c.(3) of this clause.

shall be accompanied by the certificate described in paragraph
c.(2) of this clause, and executed in accordance with paragraph
c.(3) of this clause.
g. The Government shall pay interest on the amount found
due and unpaid by the Government from (1) the date the District
Engineer received the claim (properly certified if required), or
(2) the date payment otherwise would be due, if that date is
later, until the date of payment. Simple interest on claims
shall be paid at the rate, fixed by the Secretary of the
Treasury, as provided in the Act, which is applicable to the
period during which the District Engineer receives the claim, and
then at the rate applicable for each 6 -month period as fixed by
the Treasury Secretary during the pendency of the claim.
h. The Lessee shall proceed diligently with the performance
of the lease, pending final resolution of any request for relief,
claim, appeal, or action arising under the lease, and comply with
any decision of the District Engineer.

parties to this lease shall protect the project against pollution
of its air, ground, and water. The Lessee shall comply promptly

to the premises.
28. PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT SCREENING
A Preliminary Assessment Screening (PAS) documenting the
known history of the property with regard to the storage, release
or disposal of hazardous substances thereon is attached hereto
and made a part hereof as Exhibit D. Upon expiration, revocation
or termination of this lease, another PAS shall be prepared which
will document the environmental condition of the property at that
time. A comparison of the two assessments will assist the
District Engineer in determining any environmental restoration
requirements. Any such requirements will be completed by the
lessee in accordance with the condition on RESTORATION.
29. HISTORIC PRESERVATION
The Lessee shall not remove or disturb, or cause or permit
to be removed or disturbed, any historical, archaeological,

agreement or understanding for a commission, percentage,
brokerage, or contingent fee, excepting bona fide employees or

or violation of this warranty, the United States shall have the
right to annul this lease without 'liability or, in its
discretion, to require the Lessee to pay, in addition to the
lease rental or consideration, the full amount of such

1. REAL PROPERTY TRANSACTION: The Corps proposes to renew a lease for
approximately 80 acres of land at Grapevine Lake to the City of Grapevine for public
park and recreation purposes. Facilities on the area include several soccer fields and a
restroom.
a. A COMPREHENSIVE RECORDS SEARCH was conducted which included a
review of the following areas:
1) Real Estate Division files.
2) Real Estate Division maps.
3) Grapevine Lake Master Plan.
4) Operations Division files.
b. A SITE INVESTIGATION was performed on 13 May 1994 which consisted
of a visual inspection of the area.
2. STATEMENT OF FINDINGS
A complete search of the District files which pertain to the proposed lease area
was made as stated in La. above. This records search revealed no evidence of any
hazardous substance being stored, released or disposed of on the property involved.
The operating plans and historical records also showed no evidence of any activity
which would have contaminated the property with hazardous substances.
b. SITE INVESTIGATION SUMMARY
A site investigation of the proposed lease area was made as stated in Lb. above.
This visual inspection revealed no unusual odors, stained soils, stressed vegetation,
suspicious seepage, manmade land features, unnatural surface features or other
evidence that would indicate the presence of hazardous wastes. Based on this
inspection it was determined no hazardous substance has been stored, released or
disposed of on the property involved. Project personnel have no knowledge of past
activities which might have created a hazardous situation.
