Facilities and Construction City Hall (Municipal Government Complex) FC1205
Project Description
This project is for the design, acquisition, and construction of a new municipal complex up to 183,000 square feet to consolidate
multiple city services and departments into one location. The new City Hall (Municipal Government Complex) will include the
following city services and departments: City Hall, Police Department (including Police Property, Traffic, Crime Scene and SWAT),
Municipal Court, Parks Administration, Citicable, Fire Administration & Emergency Management, and Neighborhood Services. The
proposed 183,000 square feet would be constructed to provide Public Safety operations 93,000 square feet, City Hall 75,000 square
feet, and Municipal Court 15,000 square feet. The square feet dimensions by function could be redefined during the design process.

Project Justification
The existing location of city services and departments have been impacted by the widening of Loop 820. City Hall, Police
Department, Municipal Court, and Parks Administration available parking has been substantially reduced to less available parking
spaces. The result of the reduced parking and landscaping at Parks Administration and Municipal Court impacted the fire lanes
located in the front of the building. There is no longer adequate space in front of the building for required emergency responder
access. The fire lanes at City Hall and the Police Department need to be reconfigured, which will result in additional parking being
lost. Due to the widening of Loop 820 both locations are non-compliant with several codes and government regulations.
The new City Hall (Municipal Government Complex) will allow the City to position multiple City services and departments into one
conducive location for the Residents, Employees, and Visitors of North Richland Hills.
Project cost is estimated to be $69,284,287. Funding sources consist of $48,000,000 in G.O. Bonds issuance, $250,000 in G.O

will be financed by PEG funds, Court Technology Funds, Special Investigations Funds, Traffic Safety Funds, 9-1-1 Communication
Assistance Funding, Gas Development, and other reserves. Reserves in the amount of $2,126,428 are from the sale of the old City
Hall.
