ACTION

Adopt Resolution No. 12245 authorizing Contract No. 2021-133-COS, Intergovernmental Agreement for the renewal of Provision of Fire Protecton Services to the Scottsdale Island Fire District (SCIFD). BACKGROUND

The State Legislature passed HB2780 during the 2007 legislative session, which addresses fire protection services in unincorporated county areas that exist within boundaries of an incorporated or town. HB2780 places requirements on and towns with municipal fire departments to provide fire protection services to county islands within their boundaries, when no private alternative exists. The law went into effect September 19, 2007. The legislation affected inhabited county islands within the boundaries of the City of Scottsdale. They are located in the areas of Exeter and 64^ St., Miller (Cattletrack) Road north of McDonald Road, and the area of Chaparral and 65*^ St., with a total of 39 residential parcels. A legal analysis of the law, conducted at that time by our City Attorney’s Office, concluded that the City could be required to enter into a fire protection agreement, should the residents in one or all of the county islands form a fire district and request the service.

ANALYSIS & ASSESSMENT

Staff was notified of the intent of the county islands to form a fire district in July of 2007. The district organizers successfully petitioned the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors on March of 2008 and officially became the SCIFD in July of 2008. Staff from the City Attorney’s Office, Risk Management, Financial Services, and the Fire Department met with representatives from the District to develop an agreement for the City to provide fire protection services to the SCIFD that is based on the minimum requirements of the statute.

The City has been providing fire protection services to this area since 2009, and this is a renewal from the 2016 approved contract. The term of this Agreement, Contract No. 2021-133-COS, is five years, the maximum term allowed in the statute. The city will receive $36,195.13 from the SCIFD for the provision of sen/ice for the remainder of this fiscal year. The amount for service will be adjusted annually, based on the cost of service formula that is shown in Exhibit “B” of the Agreement. The initial agreement and cost of service formula was reviewed and approved by the Maricopa County Attorney's Office who determined that such agreement was based on commercially reasonable assumptions, as required by the Statute. When the law initially went into effect. City staff participated in a valley-wide committee to develop a uniform cost of service formula and uniform IGA City Council Report | IGA - Provision of Fire Protection to Scottsdale County Island Fire District template to expedite approval by the County Attorney’s Office. The cost of service formula in this Agreement has been modified slightly from the 2016 version upon mutual agreement of the parties to reflect statew/ide property tax calculation changes that have taken place since the initial development of the cost of service formula.

RESOURCE IMPACTS

Staffing, Workload Impact

No additional staff or resources are required to provide fire protection services to the District. Minimal staff time will be required to administer the contract.

Future Budget Implications

The City will be compensated annually, based on the cost of service formula, for the term of the Agreement.

OPTIONS & STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Recommended Approach Adopt Resolution No. 12245 authorizing Contract No. 2021-133-COS, Intergovernmental Agreement for the Provision of Fire Protection Services to the Scottsdale County Island Fire District.

Description of Option B

Based on State Statute, if the City does not voluntarily enter into this Intergovernmental Agreement, the City would be forced to provide fire service to the District and a 3-person board would be formed to set the rate of compensation paid to the City. The 3-person board would consist of one person from the District, one person from the City, and those two persons would agree upon a third person (if no agreement on the third person is achieved, the County Board of Supervisors would appoint the third person). This option could take the compensation methodology out of the City’s control.

liability, loss, expense, damage, allegation, or claim of any nature whatsoever which is caused by any activity, condition, or event arising directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, out of the performance or nonperformance of any of the provisions of the contracted services unless the services were provided in a grossly negligent manner.

This Article will not apply to any default that occurs as a result of a failure on the part of the Fire District to pay its obligations under this Agreement.
