PROJECT ASSESSMENT PLAN GUIDE AND TEMPLATE
Introduction
The purpose of the Project Assessment (PA) Plan is to identify if a contractor can quickly identify the risks on a future
project in terms of cost time and client expectations (of quality and performance) The PA Plan is used to
1 Assist the client in prioritizing contractors based on their ability to understand the risks of a project
2 Provide high performing contractors with an opportunity to differentiate themselves from their competitors
3 Minimize the effort of expenenced companies who are competing for the project
Contractors should keep in mind that the PA Pian is only one step in the selection process If all the PA Plans are the
same, the PA Plan will have little impact in the selection (other factors, such as the interview will dictate the selection) The
PA Plan will become part of the contract
PA Plan Format
The PA Plan contains three major sections Scope Plan Potential Risks and Solutions and the Potential Value Added
Options The City s goal is to make the selection process as efficient as possible Efficiency is to minimize the effort of all
participants, especially those who will not be awarded the project Therefore the PA Plan should be brief and concise The
PA Plan shall NOT exceed 4 pages front side of page only (2 pages Scope Plan 2 pages combined for Risks and Value
Added ideas)
In order to minimize any bias by the evaluation committee, the PA Plans shall NOT contain ANY names (such as contractor
or manufacturer names personnel names, project names product names, or company letterhead) A PA Plan template is
attached and must be downloaded from the FTP site Contractors are NOT allowed to re-create the PA Plan Template
(cannot alter font size font type add colors add pictures, etc) Failure to comply with these requirements may result in
disqualification The PA Plans should not contain any marketing information, brochures, product names, technical
information, or general items All documents shall be on W x 11 , in black and white ink only, no graphics or pictures
Overview of the Scope Plan Section
The purpose of the scope plan submittal is an opportunity for the contractor to differentiate themselves by giving a concise
and well organized description of the project The Scope Plan should be a succinct summary of the project and should be
used to prove to the client that the contractor can visualize what they are going to do before they do it The Plan should
identify the major components risks and show contractors capability to predict, preplan, prioritize and minimae technical
asks
Overview of the Risk Assessment Section
The contractor should clearly address the following items
1 List and prioritize major risk items that are unique to this project This includes areas that may cause the project to
not be completed on time not finished within budget generate any change orders or may be a source of
dissatisfaction for the owner Risks can include things that you control and things that you do not control
2 Explain how the contractor will avoid 1 minimize the risk if the contractor has a unique method to minimize the
risk they should explain it in non-technical terms
Overview of the Value Added Item Section
The contractor should identify and fist any value added options that they feel may apply to this project Do not include
marketing material

PROJECT ASSESSMENT PLAN GUIDE AND TEMPLATE
This Project Assessment Plan addresses our firm's approach, under a JOC, to perform preconstruction
and construction services for modification of the existing signal at Lake Pleasant Parkway & Hatfield Road
to accommodate at grade road crossings for equestrians and pedestrians
As a preface to providing these services, we would like to state our firm's commitment and ability to
provide qualified and experienced personnel to perform the tasks under the JOC We have registered
professional engineers on our staff (compliant with A R S 32-142(A)) to oversee and supervise all phases
of traffic signal system planning, design, preconstruction, construction, integration and operation Our field
personnel have IMSA level II certification, traffic control credential from ATSSA, OSHA safety and dust
control Additionally, our firm has performed as a JOC contractor for different agencies and has
experience administering, managing and successfully completing JOC Work Orders For this protect, the
Assessment Plan starts with addressing preconstruction activities
Preconstructron With the design provided by the City and the design consultant, our firm's approach
would be to provide input to the planning & design process from a constructabdity perspective Our firm
would be available to provide services to support field review & investigation, perform project
measurements & quality checks for quantities We would also be able to provide plan review and materials
cost estimate data, as requested, and make recommendations regarding physical modifications necessary
for construction of the signal system and crossings
As the design approaches 90%, a site review for constructability will allow the City, the designer and the
JOC contractor to finalize any remaining protect elements prior to construction With a final design, our
firm would follow through to produce hard project costs and a construction schedule The costs will be
developed using quotes for approved materials and need for manpower, equipment and traffic control A
schedule for the sample project at LPP and Hatfield Rd is attached
Important administrative tasks would also be performed as part of preconstruction Under the JOC we
would anticipate receiving the final design from the City and their design consultant This in turn would
provide the basis for submitting a formal cost proposal and schedule to the City for review After any
discussions and necessary adjustments to the proposal for approval, an individual job order would be
anticipated Following approval, the City would issue a Notice to Proceed, allowing permit requests to be
submitted for review Our firm would produce proposed traffic control plans for review and approval as
part of the permitting process
We would also provide services to address all utility locating issues In addition to this intersection
location being in a high power overhead electrical transmission Ione corridor, there is significant fiber optic
presence as evidenced by the large vault on the east side, in the southwest corner, where the crossing is
proposed, there is a dual culvert drainage structure and a gas line present Our firm would expect to have
site review meetings as necessary, including the City of Peoria Project Manager, the designer as well as
the City Inspection forces - along with utility representatives as warranted This coordination, in advance
of construction, will alert all stakeholders to be aware of the site conditions and identify any special issues,
such as site access, a need for special call -outs for utility locating or any other items brought forward
regarding the assigned work At this stage a preconstruction meeting would be scheduled to formally
initiate the construction phase of the project

Construction Following the review & approval for scope & cost, the JOC process would proceed with
issuing the Work Order & NTP, obtaining permits & providing traffic control plans for review and approval
Our firm would assist the City in organizing a preconstruction meeting with stakeholders to review the
project plans, specifications and schedule in preparation for construction Our firm would anticipate
following the sequence outlined below for construction activities
Construction activities will include continuing coordination with utility companies (initiated during
preconstruction) and commencing with the underground work It is expected that a survey for
underground work for this project will be needed for extension of the drainage culvert on the southwest
corner The drainage extension will provide additional surface area for the equestrian ramp and holding
area Based on field conditions, the drainage work will require relocating the traffic signal junction box to
the south, leading, in -tum to a rewire of the south leg Additional work may be required on the southeast
corner where, according to the City's Trail Crossing Guidelines, clearances are minimally met If the
design calls for further clearance, there could be an impact to move the controller cabinet on that corner
as well Underground work would also be anticipated to modify the pedestrian ramp on the northwest
corner as well as landing ramps for pedestrian ramps and equestrian ramps on the northeast and
southeast corners respectively, including poles and call buttons
Upon completion of the underground work, intersection rewiring would be performed This will include
new conductor for the intersection's south leg to accommodate signal equipment relocation as well as all
wiring for the new pedestrian and equestrian call buttons
In conjunction with the rewiring, construction activity will proceed with striping and providing equestrian
crossing surface treatment for Lake Pleasant Parkway This work could also provide for any median
modification called for in the plans to accommodate alignment and clearance for equestrian traffic This
phase concludes with initiating the signal operation with the new crossing configuration
The final phase of construction will address landscape restoration, grading, vegetation and irrigation as
needed This will be followed with a final project walk-through to develop a punch list for any remaining
items and clean-up After punch list completion, As -built plans will be produced and delivered Additional
administrative close out activities under the JOC process will consist of our firm signing the project waiver
& release, along with the Final Letter of Acceptance (FLOA) Our firm will provide services to self perform
all aspects of construction to complete the at -grade crossing project with the exception of striping and
concrete work which are specialty trades that we would expect to sub out
As a JOC contractor our firm will be able to provide qualified staff for engineering, design and supervision
for all phases of traffic signal systems work and associated integration For construction we will self
perform all signal work to install poles, heads, cabinets, video detection & surveillance and related
appurtenances, we maintain manpower, equipment and vehicles to perform utility locating and utility work
related to traffic signal system installation, including electrical work and coordination with electrical utilities,
We will also self perform all work for lighting installation, maintenance and knock -down repair We have

Project Cost Escalation — There are three major considerations each of which will have the
Risk 1
potential to expand the scope and increase the costs of the project The areas that risk cost
escalation are appurtenances for pedestrian safety, equestrian safety and the associated
need for traffic signal equipment relocation
Each of these considerations is addressed individually below The overall solution is to
Solution
achieve safe pedestrian and equestrian crossings in accordance with plans & guidelines
without over designing or constructing at the expense of incurring escalating project costs
Pedestrian Safety — While the sample project calls for the pedestrian/equestrian crossing
Risk 2
on the south side of Hatfield Road, mixing the two groups in one area may pose a risk of
needing an extensive cross section on the south side of Hatfield for the combined traffic
A potential solution could be to separate the pedestrians and provide an east/west crossing
on the north side of Hatfield Road The north side is likely better suited for pedestrian traffic
due to the shopping area and existing pedestrian ramp on the northwest corner The
Solution
pedestrian crossing would entail additional work to modify the existing pedestrian ramp on
the northwest corner as well as introducing the need to construct a new pedestrian ramp on
the northeast corner This would alleviate space requirements (and minimize ROW
requirements) on the south side of Hatfield Road for the equestrian crossing
Risk 3
Equestrian Safety — Risks to equestrian safety will arise from the open storm drain on the
southwest corner Drainage modifications will be necessary and will impact project costs
Equestrian safety and construction costs should be considered in light of the City of Peoria
Path and Trail Corridor Guidelines and the At -Grade Path and Trail Crossings Guidelines
The open storm drain will be immediately adjacent to the equestrian crossing and a
protective barrier or spatial separation should be evaluated The construction of a barrier
may involve a wing wall and/or head wall around the open drainage, upon which equestrian
Solution
safe rail fencing can be mounted to safely channel equestrian traffic Alternatively, providing
separation through open space will increase the amount that the storm drainage needs to be
extended to the south Additional impact to extend drainage comes from the need to
provide a gathering area for the crossing (as recommended by the guidelines) on the
southwest corner
Risk 4
Traffic Signal Equipment Relocation — The risk is that accommodating safety and
preserving drainage will increase costs to relocate impacted traffic signal equipment
Much of the solution will depend heavily on decisions made during the design process The
key is fully recognizing the implications of each decision A specific focus will be on
decisions (to move junction boxes, related to drainage modifications on the southwest
corner, for example) which could result in a requirement to rewire portions or all of the
intersection Another focus would be on decisions related to providing adequate equestnan
Solution
trail widths for safe passage adjacent to the traffic signal cabinet on the southeast corner
Currently there is exactly 12' 1" width between the signal cabinet and the signal pole on that
corner This is a recommended minimum for equestrian crossings widths from the
guidelines If a design decision is made to increase that width from the minimum, then the
cabinet would become subject to relocation, along with the corresponding construction
costs, Furthermore, changing the cabinet location could introduce the need for additional
rewiring and associated costs

Subcontractor Selection Plan
Our firm understands the requirements under A R S 34-603, the statute
identifies the requirement to give due consideration to the qualification of a
contractor to perform the prescribed work The statute does not rule out the
possibility of using price as a component of the selection process, but it
makes clear the requirement to have qualification as the primary focus Our
approach to subcontractor selection is described below
• Identify subcontractors that have experience, expertise and history of
delivering similar work to be performed
• Confirm subcontractors have a valid Arizona ROC contractor license,
the license is applicable for the work to be performed and the license is
in good standing
• Establish that subcontractors have adequate resources, in the form of
manpower and equipment, to perform the work
• Review subcontractors' ability to comply with insurance requirements
of the City of Peoria
• Determine subcontractors bonding capacity and the viability of their
surety
• Confirm that subcontractors follow Equal Employment Opportunity
requirements and comply with E -verify
• Review the subcontractors' Safety Plan
• Review subcontractors' financial standing along with history of claim
activity
Subcontractors will be utilized and selected on an as needed basis, based on
requirements of the individual job order and availability to meet the protect
schedule Prior to any subcontractor performing work on a project, a request
to allow use of the contractor will be made to the City for approval Any
subcontractor rejected by the city will not be allowed to perform on the
project
Additionally, our firm strives to accommodate the use of disadvantaged,
minority and women owned business entities when this requirement is
stipulated We are an equal opportunity employer and follow all federal state
and local labor laws

Specifications.
After each excavation is complete and materials in place, the Contractor shall notify the Town
for inspection, and under no circumstances shall any underground material or equipment be
covered with fill without proper approval.
(E) Conduit by Trenchless Methods:
Conduit under existing pavement, curbs and gutters, sidewalks, concrete flatwork, textured or
decorative surfaces, and at other specified locations, shall be installed by Horizontal
Directional Boring (HDB) or Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) methods. Use of either
method is allowed, subject to approval by the Town Engineer.
Conduit installation in areas where trenching would typically be allowed may be installed by
trenchless method, if preapproved by the Town as a means of facilitating installation or
mitigating potential damage to existing surface and subsurface elements.
The proposed bore profile shall be submitted to the Town, after the contractor has completed
the necessary potholing, and approved prior to beginning the operation at each location.
Directional boring/drilling shall be used to install all conduits along a prescribed path from the
surface with minimal impact to the surrounding area. Installation shall be performed in
accordance with industry standards and as directed by the Town Engineer.
The contractor's installation process shall utilize the "walkover" locating system, or other Town
approved equivalent, for determining the installation profile. The installation equipment shall
register the depth, angle, rotation and directional data. At the surface, equipment shall be
used to gather the data and relay the information to the equipment operator.
Page 8 of 12
Excavation and backfill of excavated pits shall be in accordance with the requirements of
Subsection 203-5.03 (B) (4).
When enlargement of an installation hole is necessary, the hole shall be at least 25 percent
larger than the conduit to be installed, unless otherwise specified by the Town. Pulling
equipment such as grips, pulling eyes, and other attachment hardware external to the conduit
will be permitted as long as a wooden dowel is placed inside the conduit to prevent it from
collapsing at the point of attachment when pull tension is at its peak. A swivel shall be used
with all pulling hardware when pulling back the conduit into the installation path. Drilling fluid
shall be pumped down the hole to provide lubrication for the conduit as it is pulled in. The
pulling tension for installing conduit into the installation path shall not exceed 75 percent of the
conduit manufacturer's tensile strength rating in order to prevent the conduit from "necking
down" or deforming.
All final installation profiles shall be submitted to the Town.
471.4 MEASUREMENT:
Conduit will be measured by the LINEAR FOOT for each diameter size regardless of method of
installation. Where multiple conduits will be placed in a single trench or Directional Drill
(including but not limited to Bid Items 471.61214, 471.61314, and 471.61320 measurement shall
be by the linear foot of trench or directional bore. For example, in a 100 -foot trench or direction
bore where two 3" conduits will be installed, measurement shall be made by the linear foot of
trench or directional bore (100 feet) not the total length of conduit installed (200 feet). The total
length of conduit shall be included in the LINEAR FOOT measurement.
Pull boxes will be measured as a unit for EACH pull box size.
No measurement or direct payment will be made for furnishing or installing pull tape, the cost
being considered as included in the cost of the contract items.
E,VA&�:7-1vi Ji1:4►116

g. The VDP shall default to a safe condition, such as a constant call on each active detection channel,
in the event of unacceptable interference or loss of the video signal.
h. The system shall be capable of automatically detecting a low -visibility condition such as fog
and respond by placing all defined detection zones in a constant call mode. A user -selected
alarm output shall be active during the low -visibility condition that can be used to modify the
controller operation if connected to the appropriate controller input modifier(s). The system shall
automatically revert to normal detection mode when the low -visibility condition no longer exists.
3. Vehicle Detection
3.1 Up to 24 detection zones per camera input shall be supported and each detection zone can be
sized to suit the site and the desired vehicle detection region.
3.2 The VDP shall provide up to 24 open collector output channels per camera input using one or
more extension modules.
3.3 A single detection zone shall be able to replace multiple inductive loops and the detection
zones shall be OR'ed as the default or may be AND'ed together to indicate vehicle
presence on a single phase of traffic movement.
3.4 Placement of detection zones shall be done by using only a pointing device, and a
graphical interface built into the VDP and displayed on a video monitor, to draw the
detection zones on the video image from each video camera. No separate computer shall be
required to program the detection zones.
3.5 Up to 3 detection zone patterns shall be saved for each camera within the VDP memory. The
VDP's memory shall be non-volatile to prevent data loss during power outages.
3.6 The activation of the detection zone pattern for current use shall be done through a local menu

3.7 When a vehicle is detected within a detection zone, the corners of the detection zone shall
activate on the video overlay display to confirm the detection of the vehicle.
3.8 Detection shall be at least 98% accurate in good weather conditions, with slight
degradation possible under adverse weather conditions (e.g. rain, snow, or fog) which
reduce visibility. Detection accuracy is dependent upon site geometry, camera placement,
camera quality and detection zone location, and these accuracy levels do not include
allowances for occlusion or poor video due to camera location or quality.
3.9 The VDP shall provide dynamic zone reconfiguration (DZR). DZR enables normal
operation of existing detection zones when one zone is being added or modified during the
setup process. The new zone configuration shall not go into effect until the configuration
is saved by the operator.
3.10 Detection zone setup shall not require site specific information such as latitude and
longitude to be entered into the system.
3.11 The VDP shall process the video input from each camera at 30 frames per second.
Multiple camera processors shall process all video inputs simultaneously.
3.12 The VDP shall output a constant call during the background learning period of no more than 3

Iteris Roadway Sensor Products
Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale
1. Sole Agreement. These Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale for
the sale and purchase of goods and services between Iteris, Inc.
("Iteris") and the purchaser or buyer ("Purchaser") indicated on the face
of the price quotation, proposal, contract, sales order or offer from Iteris
constitute the entire agreement between Iteris and Purchaser (the
"Agreement") and supersede any prior agreement or understanding,
whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.
Iteris shall not be bound by any terms or conditions not set forth in this
Agreement, including but not limited to, any purchase order or purchase
contract ("Order") from Purchaser that is in any way inconsistent with or
in addition to this Agreement. This Agreement may not be expanded or
modified except by an instrument in writing executed by an authorized
representative of Iteris. Iteris' acceptance of Purchaser's Order shall not
be deemed an acceptance of any modification to any term or condition
contained herein, but rather an acceptance of Purchaser's agreement to
purchase goods and services upon the terms set forth in this Agreement.
All Orders, whether or not based on specific quotations, are subject to
Iteris' acceptance by an authorized Iteris representative.
2. Shipment. All prices are in United States Dollars (USD or $) and
quoted FCA (Free Carrier at named point, IncotermsS 2010), or in
jurisdictions that have not adopted Incoterms®, FOB at the shipping point
of Iteris, Inc. Title to goods sold hereunder (individually, a "Product" and
collectively, "Products) shall pass to the Purchaser upon delivery of
Products to the carrier. Iteris, however, retains a security interest and a
vendor's lien against the Products until payment in full is received.
Purchaser agrees to perfect and maintain such security interest for Iteris.
In the absence of specific written instructions that Iteris has accepted,
Iteris will ship Products by what it deems to be the most appropriate
method for shipment. Although Iteris may transact for carriage, all freight
charges and insurance premiums will be for the account of Purchaser.
Upon delivery to the carrier, Purchaser assumes all risk of loss. Any such
loss shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligation to pay Iteris in full for
Products, freight and insurance. Purchaser shall have the right to negotiate
with the carrier and/or insurer to recoup its loss.
3. Delivery. Standard shipments to Purchaser will be approximately
30-45 days after receipt of an Order. In the event that Purchaser requests a
guaranteed ship date, Iteris reserves the right, after notice to Purchaser, to
include in the final purchase price any expenses which increase the cost of
production or delivery, including but not limited to, expediting and
overtime expenses, parts procurement premiums, etc. Iteris reserves the
right to ship complete orders in advance of the ship dates specified and,
with prior approval from Purchaser, partial orders. Iteris shall not be liable
for either delays in delivery or the failure to manufacture if such delay or
failure is due to causes beyond Iteris' reasonable control, including but
not limited to, acts of God, acts or omissions of either Purchaser or third
parties, intervention of any government authority, strikes, lockouts or
other labor disturbances, floods, fires, earthquakes, epidemics,
quarantines, riots, wars, delays in transportation, or where Iteris is unable
to obtain necessary labor, materials or manufacturing facilities. In the
event of such delay or failure, the delivery date shall be extended for a
period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay or failure.
4. Payment Terms. Unless an authorized Iteris representative agrees
upon different credit terms in writing at the time of acceptance of
Purchaser's order, the standard terms of payment shall be cash or wire
transfer of funds in advance of shipment or, for international shipments,
Irrevocable Sight Letter of Credit collectable within thirty (30) days after
shipment. Iteris' obligation to deliver Products is subject to Purchaser's
compliance with the foregoing payment terms, or in the event credit is
granted by Iteris, any such credit terms provided. Iteris may at any time,
in its reasonable business judgment, if the financial condition of Purchaser
warrants, either alter the credit terms or suspend credit and delay delivery
until such time as the revised credit terms are met. Iteris shall have the
right to cancel any unfilled order, or delay its shipment, for failure of
Purchaser to meet its payment schedule or obligations. In the event any
payment is not made when due, Iteris shall have the right to accelerate the
due date of the entire unpaid balance and to increase the unpaid balance of

fees, or assessments, including but not limited to sales, use, excise, VAT,
or similar taxes and export or import duties or fees applied to the sale or to
the Products sold, by any United States or foreign federal, state,
provincial, or local governmental body. Any such taxes that must be paid

6. Limited Warranty.
Iteris Hardware Products: Unless otherwise specified in writing by an
authorized Iteris representative, hardware Products marked as
manufactured by or for Iteris or marked with an Iteris brand or trademark
are warranted, at the time of shipment to Purchaser, to conform to Iteris'
published specifications and to be free from defects in material and
workmanship. The occurrence of any of the following terminates Iteris'
Limited Warranty: (i) a Product fails as the result, in whole or in part, of
modification or repair of the Product not conducted in conformity with
Iteris' approved procedures; (ii) a Product fails as the result, in whole or
in part, of improper or insufficient maintenance; (iii) a Product is
damaged due to, in whole or in part, electrical power surge, lightning
strike, accident, negligence, improper storage, incorrect installation,
incorrect operation, unusual deterioration due to physical environments in
excess of limits set forth in Product manuals, or any other type of abuse or
misuse; or (iv) the removal of serial numbers, or the removal, mutilation
or defacement of any part of a Product. As a condition to making any
claim under this Limited Warranty, Purchaser must request a Return
Material Authorization ("RMA") before the Limited Warranty terminates
or expires. Provided that the Limited Warranty has not terminated or
expired, Iteris shall issue the RMA and Purchaser shall have the right to
return the non -conforming Product, transportation prepaid, to Iteris for
repair or, solely at Iteris' option, replacement with new or reconditioned
materials. Except for repair or replacement, Iteris shall be under no other
liability to Purchaser. This is a Limited Warranty only and, unless
otherwise specified in writing by Iteris, shall expire thirty-six (36)
months after the date of shipment of each unit of Product to Purchaser.
Repaired or replaced Products have a Limited Warranty for the greater of
ninety (90) days from the time of shipment or the remainder of the
original warranty period.
Iteris Software Products: Unless otherwise specified in writing by an
authorized Iteris representative, software Products marked as
manufactured by or for Iteris or marked with an Iteris brand or trademark
are warranted to the licensed End User in accordance with the software
license and warranty packaged with the software.
Non-Iteris Products. Hardware or software Products marked as
manufactured or produced by others or marked with a brand or trademark
of a party other than Iteris are warranted, if at all, by the manufacturer or
producer to the End User in accordance with the warranty documentation
provided by the manufacturer or producer.
NO OTHER WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES, EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARISING BY LAW, CUSTOM OR
CONDUCT, SHALL BE APPLICABLE. NO REPRESENTATION OR
WARRANTY BY PURCHASER SHALL EXTEND THE LIABILITY
OR RESPONSIBILITY OF ITERIS BEYOND THE TERMS OF THIS
PROVISION. THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES PROVIDED HEREIN
ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER RIGHTS OR
REMEDIES. IN NO EVENT SHALL ITERIS HAVE ANY LIABILITY
FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, OR FOR
LOSS, DAMAGE OR EXPENSE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
ARISING FROM USE OF THE PRODUCTS, OR AN INABILITY TO
USE PRODUCTS EITHER SEPARATELY OR IN COMBINATION
WITH OTHER SOFTWARE, EQUIPMENT OR MATERIALS, OR
FROM ANY OTHER CAUSE.

7. Return Material Authorizations. Upon request by Purchaser for an
RMA whether for repair, replacement, or credit, Iteris agrees that it will
either issue such RMA or provide Purchaser with a written explanation for
its refusal to issue the RMA within thirty (30) days of the request by
Purchaser. If Iteris provides a Field Replaceable Unit ("FRU") or
replacement Product in advance of receipt of an authorized return and
does not receive the returned unit within 30 days of shipment, Purchaser
will be invoiced for the FRU or replacement. Purchaser shall pay all
shipping costs for items returned to Iteris. For items repaired or replaced
under a valid warranty claim, Iteris shall pay shipping costs for return of
repaired or replaced item to Purchaser.
8. Intellectual Property Indemnification. Iteris shall indemnify and
hold harmless Purchaser and its customers from loss, damage or liability
for infringement of a United States (U.S.) patent or U.S. copyright
("intellectual property") arising out of the sale or use of Iteris Products
delivered to Purchaser hereunder (the "Indemnity"); provided that
Purchaser notifies Iteris in writing within ten (10) days of Purchaser's first
notice of an infringement claim, threat or suit ("Infringement Claim") and
fully cooperates with Iteris in the defense of such Infringement Claim and
the avoidance of infringement by, including but not limited to, providing
Iteris any requested authority, information, and assistance necessary. Iteris
shall be entitled, at its election, to assume the defense of any Infringement
Claim. The foregoing Indemnity shall not apply when normally non -
infringing Iteris Products are rendered infringing by (i) Purchaser's or its
customer's alteration of Iteris Products or the operation thereof, (ii) use of
Iteris Products in combination with other equipment or software, or (iii)
Iteris' modification of its products in compliance with the Purchaser's
specifications or instructions. Iteris shall have the right to resolve any
Infringement Claim in the manner it deems appropriate, including, but not
limited to, (i) obtaining a license from the owner of the alleged infringed
intellectual property, (ii) rescinding the purchase of the Iteris Product, or
(iii) modifying or replacing the alleged infringing Product with non -
infringing Product. The foregoing Indemnity shall not extend to claims
based on infringement of intellectual property outside the United States of
America. Iteris' sole obligation and liability to Purchaser and its
customers with respect to indemnification of claims shall be as set forth in
this paragraph and specifically excludes indemnification for consequential
damages, incidental damages, punitive damages, and attorneys' fees.
9. Product Liability, Mutual Indemnification. In the event Purchaser
receives a claim that a Product or any component thereof, delivered by
Iteris to Purchaser, has caused personal injury or damage to property of
others, Purchaser shall immediately, but in no circumstances in less than
ten (10) days, notify Iteris in writing of all such claims. Iteris shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser for any costs or damages to
the extent caused by the defective Product or the negligence of Iteris, its
agents, or its employees, and Iteris shall be entitled, at its election, to
assume the defense of any claims related thereto. Purchaser shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Iteris from and against all claims,
demands, losses and liability arising out of damage to property or injury to
persons caused by or in connection with the products, acts or omissions of
Purchaser and its agents and employees, and from and against all claims,
demands, losses and liability for costs or fees, including reasonable
attorneys' fees in connection therewith.
10. Arbitration. It is the intent of the parties that any controversy will be
elevated to the highest management levels within the respective
organizations in an attempt to resolve the matter most efficiently. If the
parties are unable, after good faith negotiations, which each hereby
covenants to undertake, to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy
arising between them, the parties hereby expressly agree that the exclusive
means of resolving any such dispute, claim or controversy arising out of
or relating to this agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement,
interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope
or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by
arbitration. If the Purchaser has an office located in the United States,
arbitration shall be conducted under the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and
Procedures of JAMS, a national alternative dispute resolution service
(www.jamsadr.com) and shall be conducted in the English language, in
IzElus.--
Los Angeles, CA USA, by one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with
said rules. If the Purchaser does not have an office in the United States,
arbitration shall be conducted under the Rules of Arbitration of the
International Chamber of Commerce and be conducted in the English
language, in New York, NY, USA, by one (1) arbitrator appointed in
accordance with said Rules of Arbitration. Judgment on the arbitration
award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall
not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of
arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction nor shall it preclude
Iteris from any pursuit allowed by the full extent of the law for collection
of amounts owed by Purchaser under any credit arrangement. The
arbitrator may, in the award, allocate all or part of the costs of the
arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrator and the reasonable
attorneys' fees of the prevailing party.
11. Product Modifications. Iteris reserves the right, at any time and
without notice to Purchaser, to modify Products, in whole or in part, to
include therein changes deemed appropriate by Iteris which do not
adversely affect the form, fit or function of the Products, and without
incurring any liability, to change or modify any Product previously
delivered, or to supply new Products in replacement thereof.
12. Export Responsibility. All sales hereunder shall at all times be
subject to the export control laws and regulations of the U.S. government.
Purchaser agrees that it shall not make any disposition, by way of
transshipment, re-export, diversion or otherwise, except as said laws and
regulations may expressly permit, of U.S. origin goods purchased from
Iteris, other than as to the ultimate country of destination specified on
Purchaser's order and/or declared as the country of ultimate destination on
Iteris' invoices.
13. General.
a) No modification of a quotation or a resulting order shall be binding
unless in writing signed by an authorized representative of Iteris.
b) No waiver by either party of any default shall be deemed a waiver of
any subsequent default.
c) Purchaser shall not assign its Order or any interest therein or any
rights hereunder without the written consent of Iteris, and any such
purported assignment shall be null and void and of no affect whatsoever.
d) Purchaser agrees that it will not modify, reproduce, reverse engineer,
reverse compile, disassemble, translate, de -compile, deconstruct or
decrypt, the whole or any part of the Products, including any software
embedded therein.
e) All quotations and any resulting order shall be construed, interpreted
and governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, but specifically
excluding any International Convention regarding the International Sales
of Goods. Should any court of competent jurisdiction determine any
portion hereof illegal or against public policy, such determination shall
not affect that portion herein that is not illegal or against public policy. In
the event that the federal, state, provincial, city or local government or any
bureau or agency thereof, should promulgate any law, rule or regulation
affecting prices, deliveries or any other term of a contract resulting from a
quotation, then, at the option of Iteris communicated to the Purchaser in
writing within a reasonable time, the contract between Iteris and the
Purchaser may be either terminated by Iteris and be of no force and effect
and the parties shall be restored to the position they occupied before the
contract was executed, or Iteris may make such changes in the price,
delivery schedule and terms as Iteris in its reasonable business judgment
may deem necessary to comply with such law, rule or regulation.

including the Town.

of (i) acknowledging their cooperative contractual relationship under the Chandler Contract and
this Agreement, (ii) establishing the terms and conditions by which the Contractor may provide

Contract and as more particularly set forth in the Proposal.
5. Payments. The Town shall pay the Contractor monthly, based upon acceptance

sufficient detail to justify payment. Additionally, invoices submitted without referencing this
Agreement and the Chandler Contract will be subject to rejection and may be returned.
6. Records and Audit Rights. To ensure that the Contractor and its subcontractors
are complying with the warranty under Section 7 below, Contractor's and its subcontractors'
books, records, correspondence, accounting procedures and practices, and any other supporting
evidence relating to this Agreement, including the papers of any Contractor and its
subcontractors' employees who perform any work or services pursuant to this Agreement (all of
the foregoing hereinafter referred to as "Records"), shall be open to inspection and subject to
audit and/or reproduction during normal working hours by the Town, to the extent necessary to
adequately permit (i) evaluation and verification of any invoices, payments or claims based on
Contractor's and its subcontractors' actual costs (including direct and indirect costs and overhead
allocations) incurred, or units expended directly in the performance of work under this

duration of the work and until three years after the date of final payment by the Town to
Contractor pursuant to this Agreement. Contractor and its subcontractors shall provide the Town
with adequate and appropriate workspace so that the Town can conduct audits in compliance
with the provisions of this Section. The Town shall give Contractor or its subcontractors

4401, the Contractor and its subcontractors warrant compliance with all federal immigration laws
and regulations that relate to their employees and their compliance with the E -verify

ARiz. REv. STAT. § 38-511.
9. Applicable Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the

obligations set forth in this Agreement as may lawfully be made from funds appropriated and
budgeted for that purpose during the Town's then current fiscal year. The Town's obligations
under this Agreement are current expenses subject to the "budget law" and the unfettered
legislative discretion of the Town concerning budgeted purposes and appropriation of funds.

Agreement shall be deemed terminated at the end of the then -current fiscal year term for which
such funds were appropriated and budgeted for such purpose and the Town shall be relieved of
any subsequent obligation under this Agreement. The parties agree that the Town has no
obligation or duty of good faith to budget or appropriate the payment of the Town's obligations
set forth in this Agreement in any budget in any fiscal year other than the fiscal year in which
this Agreement is executed and delivered. The Town shall be the sole judge and authority in
determining the availability of funds for its obligations under this Agreement. The Town shall
keep Contractor informed as to the availability of funds for this Agreement. The obligation of
the Town to make any payment pursuant to this Agreement is not a general obligation or
indebtedness of the Town. Contractor hereby waives any and all rights to bring any claim
against the Town from or relating in any way to the Town's termination of this Agreement
pursuant to this section.

among the terms of this Agreement, the Proposal, the Chandler Contract and invoices, the
documents shall govern in the order listed herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in
conformity with Section 2 above, unauthorized exceptions, conditions, limitations or provisions
in conflict with the terms of this Agreement or the Chandler Contract (collectively, the
"Unauthorized Conditions"), other than the Town's project -specific requirements, are expressly
declared void and shall be of no force and effect. Acceptance by the Town of any work order or
invoice containing any such Unauthorized Conditions or failure to demand full compliance with
the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement or under the Chandler Contract shall not
alter such terms and conditions or relieve Contractor from, nor be construed or deemed a waiver
of, its requirements and obligations in the performance of this Agreement.
12. Rights and Privileges. To the extent provided under the Chandler Contract, the
Town shall be afforded all of the rights and privileges afforded to Chandler and shall be the
2631874.1

"City" (as defined in the Chandler Contract) for the purposes of the portions of the Chandler
Contract that are incorporated herein by reference.
13. Indemnification; Insurance. In addition to and in no way limiting the provisions
set forth in Section 12 above, the Town shall be afforded all of the insurance coverage and
indemnifications afforded to Chandler to the extent provided under the Chandler Contract, and
such insurance coverage and indemnifications shall inure and apply with equal effect to the
Town under this Agreement including, but not limited to, the Contractor's obligation to provide
the indemnification and insurance. In any event, the Contractor shall indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Town and each council member, officer, employee or agent thereof (the Town and
any such person being herein called an "Indemnified Party"), for, from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorneys' fees, court costs and the costs of appellate proceedings) to which any such
Indemnified Party may become subject, under any theory of liability whatsoever ("Claims"),
insofar as such Claims (or actions in respect thereof) relate to, arise out of, or are caused by or
based upon the negligent acts, intentional misconduct, errors, mistakes or omissions, in
connection with the work or services of the Contractor, its officers, employees, agents, or any
tier of subcontractor in the performance of this Agreement.

but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and the costs of appellate proceedings)
to which any such Indemnified Parry may become subject, under any theory of liability

omissions, in connection with the work or services of the Consultant, its officers, employees,

of insurance coverage requirements set forth below will in no way be construed as limiting the
scope of the indemnity in this Section.
11. Insurance.
11.1 General.
A. Insurer Qualifications. Without limiting any obligations or
liabilities of Consultant, Consultant shall purchase and maintain, at its own expense,
hereinafter stipulated minimum insurance with insurance companies authorized to do
business in the State of Arizona pursuant to Amz. REv. STAT. § 20-206, as amended, with
an AM Best, Inc. rating of A- or above with policies and forms satisfactory to the Town.
Failure to maintain insurance as specified herein may result in termination of this
Agreement at the Town's option.
B. No Representation of Coverage Adequacy. By requiring insurance
herein, the Town does not represent that coverage and limits will be adequate to protect
Consultant. The Town reserves the right to review any and all of the insurance policies
and/or endorsements cited in this Agreement but has no obligation to do so. Failure to
demand such evidence of full compliance with the insurance requirements set forth in this
Agreement or failure to identify any insurance deficiency shall not relieve Consultant
from, nor be construed or deemed a waiver of, its obligation to maintain the required
insurance at all times during the performance of this Agreement.
C. Additional Insured. All insurance coverage, except Workers'
Compensation insurance and Professional Liability insurance, if applicable, shall name,
to the fullest extent permitted by law for claims arising out of the performance of this
Agreement, the Town, its agents, representatives, officers, directors, officials and
employees as Additional Insured as specified under the respective coverage sections of
this Agreement.
2640914.1

in full force and effect until all work or services required to be performed under the terms
of this Agreement are satisfactorily performed, completed and formally accepted by the
Town, unless specified otherwise in this Agreement.

insurance with respect to performance of this Agreement and in the protection of the
Town as an Additional Insured.
F. Claims Made. In the event any insurance policies required by this
Agreement are written on a "claims made" basis, coverage shall extend, either by keeping
coverage in force or purchasing an extended reporting option, for three years past
completion and acceptance of the services. Such continuing coverage shall be evidenced
by submission of annual Certificates of Insurance citing applicable coverage is in force
and contains the provisions as required herein for the three-year period.
G. Waiver. All policies, except for Professional Liability, including
Workers' Compensation insurance, shall contain a waiver of rights of recovery
(subrogation) against the Town, its agents, representatives, officials, officers and
employees for any claims arising out of the work or services of Consultant. Consultant
shall arrange to have such subrogation waivers incorporated into each policy via formal
written endorsement thereto.

set forth in these requirements may provide coverage that contains deductibles or self-
insured retention amounts. Such deductibles or self-insured retention shall not be
applicable with respect to the policy limits provided to the Town. Consultant shall be
solely responsible for any such deductible or self-insured retention amount.
I. Use of Subcontractors. If any work under this Agreement is
subcontracted in any way, Consultant shall execute written agreements with its
subcontractors containing the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section and
insurance requirements set forth herein protecting the Town and Consultant. Consultant
shall be responsible for executing any agreements with its subcontractors and obtaining
certificates of insurance verifying the insurance requirements.

under this Agreement, Consultant will provide the Town with suitable evidence of
insurance in the form of certificates of insurance and a copy of the declaration page(s) of
the insurance policies as required by this Agreement, issued by Consultant's insurance
insurer(s) as evidence that policies are placed with acceptable insurers as specified herein
and provide the required coverages, conditions and limits of coverage specified in this
Agreement and that such coverage and provisions are in full force and effect.
Confidential information such as the policy premium may be redacted from the
declaration page(s) of each insurance policy, provided that such redactions do not alter
any of the information required by this Agreement. The Town shall reasonably rely upon
2640914.1
4
the certificates of insurance and declaration page(s) of the insurance policies as evidence
of coverage but such acceptance and reliance shall not waive or alter in any way the
insurance requirements or obligations of this Agreement. If any of the policies required

responsibility to forward renewal certificates and declaration page(s) to the Town 30 days
prior to the expiration date. All certificates of insurance and declarations required by this
Agreement shall be identified by referencing the RFP number and title or this Agreement.

Town and, as such, may be terminated without cause after receipt by Consultant of written notice
by the Town. Upon termination for convenience, Consultant shall be paid for all undisputed

and will have all remedies that are available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation,
the remedy of specific performance. If the nature of the defaulting party's nonperformance is
such that it cannot reasonably be cured within 30 days, then the defaulting party will have such
additional periods of time as may be reasonably necessary under the circumstances, provided the
defaulting party immediately (A) provides written notice to the non -defaulting party and (B)
commences to cure its nonperformance and thereafter diligently continues to completion the cure

of this Agreement is in effect, an employee of any other party to this Agreement in any capacity
or a consultant to any other party of this Agreement with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement.
12.5 Gratuities. The Town may, by written notice to the Consultant, cancel this
Agreement if it is found by the Town that gratuities, in the form of economic opportunity, future
employment, entertainment, gifts or otherwise, were offered or given by the Consultant or any
agent or representative of the Consultant to any officer, agent or employee of the Town for the
purpose of securing this Agreement. In the event this Agreement is canceled by the Town
pursuant to this provision, the Town shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights and
remedies, to recover and withhold from the Consultant an amount equal to 150% of the gratuity.

obligation or duty of good faith to budget or appropriate the payment of the Town's obligations
set forth in this Agreement in any budget in any fiscal year other than the fiscal year in which

against the Town from or relating in any way to the Town's termination of this Agreement
pursuant to this section.

correctly inserted, then upon the application of either party, this Agreement will promptly be
physically amended to make such insertion or correction.
13.6 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable to the extent
that any provision or application held to be invalid by a Court of competent jurisdiction shall not
affect any other provision or application of this Agreement which may remain in effect without
the invalid provision or application.
13.7 Relationship of the Parties. It is clearly understood that each party will act
in its individual capacity and not as an agent, employee, partner, joint venturer, or associate of
the other. An employee or agent of one party shall not be deemed or construed to be the
employee or agent of the other for any purpose whatsoever. The Consultant is advised that taxes
or Social Security payments will not be withheld from any Town payments issued hereunder and

tax applicable to this Agreement.

Audits of Computerized Systems
As a firm who specializes in auditing governmental entities, we are extremely familiar with the requirements on
auditing the Town's computerized systems. The variety of automated fund accounting software programs,
spreadsheets, report writers, and specialized programs seem unlimited. Our auditors and consultants are familiar
with the most common systems used by our clients. Because of our experience, they are familiar with the
capabilities and limitations of many programs utilized by Arizona municipalities, including MUNIS. Our current
clients who utilize MUNIS include the City of El Mirage, City of Maricopa and Town of Oro Valley.
In addition, our firm maintains memberships in the Information Systems Audit and Control
Association (ISACA). The ISACA is a global organization for information governance, --71 A
control, security and audit professionals. ISACA Information Systems auditing and Nn9,rcovQmrcB P are5sonai5
Information Systems control standards are followed by practitioners worldwide.
A review and evaluation of Town information technology systems will be performed during the audit due to the
integral nature and relationship to the financial reporting of the Town. Both general information technology (IT)
controls and application controls will be assessed during the planning of the audit. Systems tests for integrity,
system security tests, use of computer assisted audit tools (CAATs), and/or the use of an IT specialist will be
applied as deemed necessary to achieve the planned audit objectives.

Audit Procedures
Core audit procedures will largely be performed on-site at the Town during scheduled fieldwork dates. Town
management and staff should be available during the scheduled fieldwork dates for discussions and to provide
requested materials to the audit team. Our firm strives to minimize disruption for our clients by reducing the number
of days at the Town's site; therefore certain audit procedures may also be conducted from our office when practical.

4. Audit Sampling for Tests of Compliance
Both statistical and nonstatistical sampling methods may be utilized to identify samples from the entire population of
transactions within the major transaction cycles. The transaction cycles tested will be determined based on materiality
considerations and our assessment of the Town's internal control completed during the planning phase of the audit.
Statistical sampling will typically be utilized for larger, significant transaction classes such as payroll, disbursements, and
certain cash receipts. Dependent upon the nature of the sample population either random selection through the use of a
random number generator, or systematic selection with a random start, will be utilized for the sample selection.
Nonstatistical haphazard selection will often be utilized for smaller populations or populations that do not have
characteristics that provide for the application of statistical sampling.
Nonstatistical judgmental selection sampling is generally utilized for tests of compliance in order to ensure items selected
meet the specific objectives of the OMB Uniform Guidance compliance requirement of the program or other applicable
compliance requirement. The samples selected will be based on the specific requirements as outlined in the grant
agreements, OMB Uniform Guidance, or other applicable source. Sampling for tests of compliance for a Single Audit
requires a planned low level of control risk. When deemed appropriate, dual purpose samples will be utilized for OMB
Uniform Guidance audit procedures to test both the operating effectiveness of controls as well as compliance with a
particular requirement.
5. Sample Sizes
Our firm will select sample sizes derived from the entire population of transactions within the major transaction cycles,
depending on materiality, our assessment of the Town's internal control as a result of risk assessment procedures, and/or
other considerations such as the OMB Uniform Guidance requirements. Typical samples sizes for a particular control test
range from 25 to 60 transactions; however sample sizes are modified based on our assessment of the controls and risk of
misstatement or noncompliance.
6. Extent and Use of Software
We will rely on Town reports to the extent possible for the purpose of our analytical procedures and documentation of our
audit procedures. A set of audit questionnaires will be provided to the Town via e-mail approximately one month before
each site visit. (These questionnaires may be provided earlier upon request of the Town.)
Our firm also utilizes the following electronic resources:
We recognize the importance of keeping the Town's data secure. A secured client portal that meets industry
standards will be used to receive data from and send information to the Town. (Access to the intemet-based portal is
password -protected.) In addition, a folder within the portal is dedicated as a report archive, enabling the Town to
access prior year audit reports at any time.
CCH electronic audit programs and basic software applications including word processing and spreadsheets to
achieve our documentation and reporting objectives. In addition, the receipt of the Town's trial balance in an Excel
or comma -separated value (CSV) file format will facilitate the use of our software applications.
IDEA data analysis software may be utilized to import, analyze, sample and/or extract data from the electronic data
files provided by the Town.
7. Type and Extent of Analytical Procedures
As required by auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America analytical procedures are performed
both in the planning and the final phases of the audit. The following are analytical methods and informational sources that
may be used during the audit:
Trend analysis:
➢ Reporting transaction classes
➢ Receivables and payables
➢ Inventories
Reasonableness testing:
➢ Current year activity to budget
➢ Investment income
Ratio analysis:
➢ Margin analysis (enterprise activities)
➢ Inventories
➢ Salaries and benefits
Other analytical procedures as deemed necessary
➢ Compensated absences
➢ Salaries and benefits
➢ Depreciation
➢ Salaries and benefits
➢ Depreciation
➢ Year-end cutoff
➢ Interest expense
➢ Functional expense
The use of analytical procedures will assist in identifying high risk areas as well as help us focus the audit test work on
significant areas and accounts that require detailed testing. The use of the Town's internal reports will be used to the
extent possible to perform the analytical procedures.
8. Gaining an Understanding of Internal Controls
An understanding of the Town's financial operations, funding source requirements, transaction processing procedures,
and internal control structure will be achieved through inquiry, observation, and tests of transactions. As outlined in the
Town responsibilities, your personnel will complete a series of internal control questionnaires to assist in this process.
We will also use other resources such as the Town's budget, organizational charts, policy and procedure manuals, and
other management information systems.
9. Determining Laws and Regulations Subject to Test Work
The determination of which laws and regulations that will be subject to audit test work will be determined through a
number of inquiry and review procedures such as the following —
Inquiry with Town personnel, including finance staff and grant administrators.
Consideration of compliance requirements that have been identified in prior years' audits.
Review the relevant portions of any directly related agreements, such as those related to grants and debt agreements.
Review pertinent sections of laws and regulations, including State statutes.
Review the minutes of meetings of the governing body.
Inquiry of oversight organizations about applicable compliance requirements.
Review of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Uniform Guidance, the Catalog of Federal Domestic
Assistance, federal audit guides, and state and local policies and procedures.
10. Identification of Anticipated Potential Audit Problems
Based upon known information provided by the Town during the proposal process, there appears to be only two potential
audit problems in future fiscal years. Significant changes in Federal funding in future years could potentially create audit
issues if the Town does not meet the compliance requirements of the new funding source. Significant changes in Federal
funding may also require a change in the scope of the audit depending on the nature and scope of required audit
procedures of the new program. In addition, personnel changes or position vacancies in key financial or accounting
positions can potentially create audit problems if the change or vacancy prevents audit requests from being completed in
an accurate and timely manner.
E. Project Schedule
Our firm's approach is to minimize work conducted on-site at our clients to minimize disruption to their employees' daily
routines. We estimate that three to four staff members will be on-site for fieldwork for approximately five days in total
for the first audit. Below are proposed dates for key project milestones as requested by the Town; upon the contract
award, exact dates will be determined upon discussions between assigned firm staff and the Town's audit liaison.

would welcome the opportunity to meet with you to discuss this information further.
We will audit the financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the
aggregate remaining fund information, including the related notes to the financial statements, which
collectively comprise the basic financial statements of Town of Fountain Hills, Arizona as of and for
the year ended June 30, 2016. We will also audit the budgetary comparison statements for the
General Fund and all major Special Revenue Funds. We have also been engaged to report on
supplementary information that accompanies the Town's basic financial statements. We will subject
the following supplementary information to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic
financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such
information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial
statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and will provide an
opinion on it in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole:
1. Combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules
Accounting standards generally accepted in the United States provide for certain required
supplementary information (RSI), such as management's discussion and analysis (MD&A), to
supplement the Town's basic financial statements. Such information, although not part of the basic
financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it
to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an
appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. As part of our engagement, we will apply
certain limited procedures to Town's RSI in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America. These limited procedures will consist of inquiries of management
regarding the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency
with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge
we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements.
We will not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited
procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any
assurance. The following RSI is required by generally accepted accounting principles and will be
subjected to certain limited procedures, but will not be audited:
1. Management's discussion and analysis
Page 1 TUCSON PHOENIX FLAGSTAFF
www.heinfeldmeech.com
The following other information accompanying the basic financial statements will not be subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements, and our auditor's report will
not provide an opinion or any assurance on that information.
1. Other information included with the audited financial statements such as the transmittal letter
and statistical data
In addition, we will audit the following and issue an audit opinion (or disclaimer of opinion) based
on our audit for the year ended June 30, 2016.
1. The Annual Expenditure Limitation Report
We will also provide the necessary services to prepare a report on Highway User Revenue Fund
(HURF) expenditures in accordance with ARS §9-481(B)(2).
Audit Objectives
The objective of our audit is the expression of opinions as to whether your basic financial statements
are fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. We will also report on the fairness of the supplementary
information referred to in the second paragraph when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole. Our responsibility in the expression of opinions is to plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance, but not absolute assurance, that the financial statements are
free from material misstatements.
An important aspect to our expression of opinions on the financial statements is understanding the
concept of materiality. Our determination of materiality is a matter of professional judgment and is
affected by our perception of the financial information needs of users of the financial statements. In
this context, it is reasonable for us to assume that users —
1. have a reasonable knowledge of business and economic activities and accounting principles,
and a willingness to study the information in the financial statements with reasonable
diligence;
2. understand that financial statements are prepared, presented, and audited to levels of
materiality;
3. recognize the uncertainties inherent in the measurement of amounts based on the use of
estimates, judgment, and the consideration of future events; and
4. make reasonable economic decisions on the basis of the information in the financial
statements.
Our audit will be conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America and the standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing
Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and will include tests of the
accounting records of the Town and other procedures we consider necessary to enable us to express
such opinions. We will issue a written report upon completion of our audit of the Town's financial
statements. We cannot provide assurance that unmodified opinions will be expressed. Circumstances
may arise in which it is necessary for us to modify our opinions or add emphasis -of -matter or other -
matter paragraphs. If our opinions on the financial statements are other than unmodified, we will
discuss the reasons with you in advance. If, for any reason, we are unable to complete the audit or
are unable to form or have not formed opinions, we may decline to express opinions or issue reports,
or may withdraw from this engagement.
Page 2
We will also provide a report (that does not include an opinion) on internal control related to the
financial statements and compliance with the provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant
agreements, noncompliance with which could have a material effect on the financial statements as
required by Government Auditing Standards. The report on internal control and on compliance will
include a paragraph that states (1) that the purpose of the report is solely to describe the scope of
testing of internal control and compliance, and the results of that testing, and not to provide an
opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control on compliance and (2) that the report is an
integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in
considering the entity's internal control and compliance. The paragraph will also state that the report
is not suitable for any other purpose. If during our audit we become aware that the Town is subject
to an audit requirement that is not encompassed in the terms of this engagement, we will
communicate to management and those charged with governance that an audit in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted auditing standards and the standards for financial audits contained in
Government Auditing Standards may not satisfy the relevant legal, regulatory, or contractual
requirements.
Management Responsibilities
Management is responsible for the basic financial statements and all accompanying information as
well as all representations contained therein. Management is responsible for (1) establishing and
maintaining effective internal controls, including evaluating and monitoring ongoing activities, to
help ensure that appropriate goals and objectives are met; (2) following laws and regulations; and (3)
ensuring that management is reliable and financial information is reliable and properly reported.
Management is also responsible for implementing systems designed to achieve compliance with
applicable laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements. You are also responsible for the
selection and application of accounting principles, for the preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America, and for compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of contracts
and grant agreements.
Management is also responsible for making all financial records and related information available to
us and for the accuracy and completeness of that information. You are also responsible for providing
us with (1) access to all information for which you are aware that is relevant to the preparation and
fair presentation of the financial statements, (2) additional information that we may request for the
purpose of the audit, and (3) unrestricted access to persons within the Town from whom we
determine it necessary to obtain audit evidence.
Management's responsibilities also include identifying significant vendor relationships in which the
vendor has responsibility for program compliance and for the accuracy and completeness of that
information. Management's responsibilities include adjusting the financial statements to correct
material misstatements and for confirming to us in the representation letter that the effects of any
uncorrected misstatements aggregated by us during the current engagement and pertaining to the
latest period presented are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial
statements taken as a whole.
Management is also responsible for the design and implementation of programs and controls to
prevent and detect fraud, and for informing us about all known or suspected fraud or illegal acts
affecting the Town involving (1) management, (2) employees who have significant roles in internal
control, and (3) others where the fraud or illegal acts could have a material effect on the financial
statements. Your responsibilities include informing us of your knowledge of any allegations of fraud
or suspected fraud affecting the Town received in communications from employees, former
Page 3
employees, grantors, regulators, or others. Management is also responsible for taking timely and
appropriate steps to remedy fraud and noncompliance with provisions of laws, regulations, contracts,
and grant agreements, or abuse that we report. In addition, you are responsible for identifying and
ensuring that the Town complies with applicable laws, regulations, contracts, agreements and grants
and for taking timely and appropriate steps to remedy any fraud, illegal acts, violations of contracts
or grant agreements, or abuse that we may report.
Management is also responsible for the preparation of the supplementary information, which we have
been engaged to report on, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. You agree to include our report on the supplementary information in any
document that contains and indicates that we have reported on the supplementary information. You
also agree to include the audited financial statements with any presentation of the supplementary
information that includes our report thereon or to make the audited financial statements readily
available to users of the supplementary information no later than the date the supplementary
information is issued with our report thereon. Your responsibilities include acknowledging to us in a
written representation letter that (1) you are responsible for presentation of supplementary
information in accordance with GAAP; (2) that you believe the supplementary information, including
its form and content, is fairly presented in accordance with GAAP; (3) that the methods of
measurement or presentation have not changed from those used in the prior period (or, if they have
changed, the reasons for such changes); and (4) you have disclosed to us any significant assumptions
or interpretations underlying the measurement or presentation of supplementary information.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a process for tracking the status of audit
findings and recommendations. Management is also responsible for identifying for us previous
financial audits, attestation engagements, performance audits or studies related to the objectives
discussed in the Audit Objectives section of this letter. This responsibility includes relaying to us
corrective actions taken to address significant findings and recommendations resulting from those
audits, attestation engagements, performance audits or studies. You are also responsible for
providing management's views on our current findings, conclusions, and recommendations, as well
as your planned corrective actions, for the report, and for the timing and format for providing that
information.
With regard to the electronic dissemination of audited financial statements, including financial
statements published electronically on your website, you understand that electronic sites are a means
to distribute information and, therefore, we are not required to read the information contained in
these sites or to consider the consistency of other information in the electronic site with the original
document.
Nonaudit Services
As part of the audit, we will assist with preparation of your financial statements, notes to the financial
statements and supplementary information. You have expressed your intention to use these nonaudit
services within the scope of your request for proposal for audit services. Upon engagement of the
audit we will utilize the general ledger, accounting records, Town prepared schedules and other
information provided by Town personnel in order to prepare the necessary year-end adjusting journal
entries and to prepare drafts of the financial statements, notes to the financial statements, and the
supplementary information. You are responsible for the information provided by the Town and
assuming all management responsibilities related to this service. You are also responsible for
designing, implementing, and maintaining internal controls over the financial statements processes.
Prior to their issuance you will be required to acknowledge in the management representation letter
that you have reviewed and approved the financial statements and acknowledge that you have
accepted responsibility for them. Further, you are required to designate an individual with suitable
Page 4
skill, knowledge, or experience to oversee the nonaudit services we provide, and for evaluating the
adequacy and results of these services. As the Town's independent auditor, professional standards
place specific requirements on our provision of certain nonaudit services. We are strictly prohibited
from assuming management responsibilities or making management decisions; therefore, the
nonaudit services we provide are limited to those indicated above. We, in our sole professional
judgment, reserve the right to refuse to perform any procedure or take any action that could be
construed as assuming management responsibilities or making management decisions. Accordingly,
to maintain our independence it is imperative that management understand its responsibilities and is
capable of fulfilling these responsibilities. If there are any questions or concerns regarding
management's responsibilities or ability to fulfill these responsibilities we request that you
immediately contact us so that we may assess the circumstance and our continued independence with
respect to providing audit services.
Audit Procedures - General
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements; therefore, our audit will involve judgment about the number of transactions to
be examined and the areas to be tested. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We will plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable rather than absolute assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement, whether from (1) errors, (2) fraudulent financial
reporting, (3) misappropriation of assets, or (4) violations of laws or governmental regulations that
are attributable to the Town or to acts by management or employees acting on behalf of the Town.
Because the determination of abuse is subjective, Government Auditing Standards do not expect
auditors to provide reasonable assurance of detecting abuse.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, combined with the inherent limitations of internal
control, and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that
material misstatements may exist and not be detected by us, even though the audit is properly
planned and performed in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
of America and Government Auditing Standards. In addition, an audit is not designed to detect
immaterial misstatements or violations of laws or governmental regulations that do not have a direct
and material effect on the financial statements. However, we will inform the appropriate level of
management of any material errors or any fraudulent financial reporting or misappropriation of assets
that come to our attention. We will also inform the appropriate level of management of any
violations of laws or governmental regulations that come to our attention, unless clearly
inconsequential. Our responsibility as auditors is limited to the period covered by our audit and does
not extend to later periods for which we are not engaged as auditors.
Our procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in
the accounts, and may include tests of the physical existence of inventories, and direct confirmation
of receivables and certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected individuals,
funding sources, creditors, and financial institutions. We will request written representations from
your attorneys as part of the engagement, and they may bill you for responding to this inquiry.
At the conclusion of our audit, we will require certain written representations from you about the
financial statements; compliance with laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements; and other
responsibilities required by generally accepted auditing standards.
Page 5
Audit Procedures - Internal Controls
Our audit will include obtaining an understanding of the Town and its environment, including
internal control, sufficient to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and
to design the nature, timing, and extent of further audit procedures. Tests of controls may be
performed to test the effectiveness of certain controls that we consider relevant to preventing and
detecting errors and fraud that are material to the financial statements and to preventing and detecting
misstatements resulting from illegal acts and other noncompliance matters that have a direct and
material effect on the financial statements. Our tests, if performed, will be less in scope than would
be necessary to render an opinion on internal control and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed
in our report on internal control issued pursuant to Government Auditing Standards.
An audit is not designed to provide assurance on internal control or to identify significant
deficiencies. However, during the audit, we will communicate to management and those charged
with governance internal control related matters that are required to be communicated under AICPA
professional standards and Government Auditing Standards.
Audit Procedures - Compliance
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, we will perform tests of the Town's compliance with applicable laws, regulations,
contracts, agreements, and grants. However, the objective of those procedures will not be to provide
an opinion on overall compliance and we will not express such an opinion in our report on
compliance issued pursuant to Government Auditing Standards.
Planned Scope and Timing of the Audit
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements; therefore, our audit will involve judgment about the number of transactions to
be examined and the areas to be tested. Our audit will include obtaining an understanding of the
entity and its environment, including internal control, sufficient to assess the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements and to design the nature, timing, and extent of further audit
procedures. Material misstatements may result from (1) errors, (2) fraudulent financial reporting, (3)
misappropriation of assets, or (4) violations of laws or governmental regulations that are attributable
to the entity or to acts by management or employees acting on behalf of the entity. We will generally
communicate our significant findings at the conclusion of the audit. However, some matters could be
communicated sooner, particularly if significant difficulties are encountered during the audit where
assistance is needed to overcome the difficulties or if the difficulties may lead to a modified opinion.
We will also communicate any internal control related matters that are required to be communicated
under professional standards.
We expect to begin our audit in May 2016 and conclude audit procedures and date our report in
October 2016.

Engagement Administration, Fees and Other
We understand that your employees will prepare and provide us with the items listed in our request
for audit information and will locate any documents selected by us for testing.
At the conclusion of the engagement, we will provide copies, which may include electronic copies,
of the reports to the Town. It is management's responsibility to submit the reports to any other
agencies that request or require the reports.
The audit documentation for this engagement is the property of Heinfeld, Meech & Co., P.C., and
constitutes confidential information. However, we may be requested to make certain audit
documentation available to a cognizant or oversight agency or its designee, a federal agency
providing direct or indirect funding, the U.S. Government Accountability Office, or other authorized
governmental agency for the purposes of a quality review of the audit, to resolve audit findings, or to
carry out oversight responsibilities. If requested, access to such audit documentation will be provided
under the supervision of Heinfeld, Meech & Co., P.C., personnel. Furthermore, upon request, we
may provide copies of selected audit documentation to the aforementioned parties. These parties
may intend, or decide, to distribute the copies or information contained therein to others, including
other governmental agencies.
The audit documentation for this engagement will be retained for a minimum of five years after the
report release or for any additional period requested by governmental agencies. If we are aware that
a federal awarding agency, pass-through entity, or auditee is contesting an audit finding, we will
contact the parties contesting the audit finding for guidance prior to destroying the audit
documentation.
Jennifer Shields is the engagement partner and is responsible for supervising the engagement and
signing the reports or authorizing another individual to sign them.
Our fee for these services will be $31,000, which is the amount in the request for proposal without a
Single Audit. Our fee is based on anticipated cooperation from your personnel and the assumption
that unexpected circumstances will not be encountered during the audit. We exercised care in
estimating the fee and believe it accurately indicates the scope of the work. Our fee includes one exit
meeting to discuss audit results and findings. Subsequent review of documentation and additional
meetings will be billed at the hourly rates indicated below. Our fee does not include factors beyond
our control, such as new GASB requirements, consultation and assistance in correcting errors in
Town -prepared information, or rescheduling of the audit when the Town is not prepared. It will be
necessary for you to complete the requested information by certain timelines in order to meet the
applicable filing deadlines for your audit reports. Not completing the requested information on time
will jeopardize meeting the applicable filing deadlines. Additional fees incurred for factors beyond
our control will be billed at the following hourly rates: Partner - $230; Manager - $190; Senior -
$125; Staff - $105. Our invoices for these fees will be rendered each month as work progresses and
are payable on presentation.
Government Auditing Standards require that we provide you with a copy of our most recent external
peer review report and any letter of comment, and any subsequent peer review reports and letters of
comment received during the period of the contract. Our 2015 peer review report accompanies this
letter.

Related Ordinance, Policy or Guiding Principle: N/A
Staff Summary (background): On 11-20-14, Staff presented the history, purpose, and current status of the
Town's account in the Salt River Project Municipal Aesthetics Fund (SRP MAF) to the Town Council, and 6
projects funded by that account were directed to be authorized. The current status of those projects are:
1. Faux Saguaros (fiberglass poles for the SRP Smart Router system) - Construction completed.
2. MCO-Adero Upgrade (replacing wood poles with steel poles on the 69 kV line through Adero Canyon, per
the Revised Settlement Agreement) - Construction substantially completed.
3. Underground at Shea (at east Town limits; 3 -span option) - Authorized; SRP design underway.
4. Underground at Palisades (near Wheeler Substation; downscoped by SRP to 1 -span) - Authorized; SRP
design underway.
5. Scottsdale IGA Swap - Not implemented (Scottsdale terminated project.)
6. Underground at Caliente Wash - Authorized; SRP design underway.
The Town's available MAF account balance will exceed SRP's allowed cap, and an additional project needs to
be authorized by the Town prior to the end of April, to avoid loss of those excess funds, due to the:
* Annual SRP contribution into the MAF account.
* Fort McDowell's participation in the "Underground at Palisades" project. (Fort McDowell had excess SRP
MAF funds in 2015, without their own available replacement project.)
* SRP downscoped the "Underground at Palisades" project from the 2 -span option authorized by the Town to
1 -span.
Page 1 of 3
* Deletion of the "Scottsdale IGA Swap" project.
* SRP cost estimate decreases at several of the above -noted projects.
Per the attached SRP Municipal Aesthetics Program Funding Summary dated 3-17-16, the Town's available
funding in its SRP MAF account is currently $561,200 (which will exceed SRP's maximum allowed carry-
forward balance at the end of April. "At -risk" funds = $361,200. Note that SRP has normally allocated an
additional $100,000 contribution to the Town's MAF account on each May 1.)
At the Town's request, SRP has provided an "Aesthetics Updated Conceptual Cost Estimate" for an additional
MAF project - "EI Pueblo and Grande Conversion and 69 kV Pole Replacement" (attached), which is valid
through April 30. (In Staffs 11-20-14 presentation to the Town Council, this project had been shown as an
"Other Potential Project", and had been labelled as potential Project "B3".) This project will underground the
overhead 12 kV lines crossing the EI Pueblo Blvd./Grande Blvd. intersection. (Note: The existing overhead 12
kV wires are underhung below the 69 kV wires at this location. The cost of undergrounding 69 kV wires greatly
exceeds the Town's MAF account value.The underhung CATV/Tele wires will need to be relocated in joint
trench, by that utility.) This project will also replace two existing wood poles with steel poles (and in doing so,
will remove 14 steel guy wires, one overhead guy span wire, and one wood guy pole). SRP's Updated
Conceptual Estimate for this work is $451,400.
Risk Analysis (options or alternatives with implications): SRP indicates that the Town would forfeit $361,200
in SRP MAF funding at the end of April, if this project is not approved.
Fiscal Impact (initial and ongoing costs; budget status): All of this project's above -noted design and
construction costs will be paid for by SRP's MAF.
(Note: If new easements are needed for this project (e.g. if electrical cabinets need to be set in new
easements, outside of the Town's existing right-of-way), the Town will be directly responsible for any costs to
prepare the easement documents and to obtain the easements.)

AESTHETICS UPDATED CONCEPTUAL COST ESTIMATE
Dear Paul,
Per Randy Harrel's email dated March 10, 2016, Fountain Hills has requested an extension to the
Aesthetics Conceptual Estimate valid thru date. The estimate provided to the town dated November 12,
2016 expired on March 11, 2016 and was never approved by Fountain Hills. Therefore, SRP has prepared
an Aesthetics Updated Conceptual Cost Estimate to bury an existing 12kV overhead span underbuilt on
69kV poles along EI Pueblo Blvd crossing Grande Blvd and replace both two 69kV wood poles to steel at
both ends of the 12kV span. The scope of work for this conversion project has not changed. The estimate
has been updated to reflect current costs.

We have extended the estimate expiration date through April 30, 3016 so this project can be presented
to Town Council on April 71". Please sign and email the attached updated Aesthetics Funding Agreement
to me. A Definitive Cost Estimate will be prepared and sent to you upon completion of design and prior to
construction.
This estimate must be approved and sent to SRP before April 20, 2016 to avoid forfeiture of
Aesthetics funds at the end of April. Failure to approve this project's funding before the end of
April may result in forfeiture potentially $361,200.
Please contact me at (602) 236-3735 or at Janice. Cacioppo@srpnet.com if you have any questions
regarding the Aesthetics funding.
Sincerely,
Janice Cacioppo

AESTHETICS CONCEPTUAL COST ESTIMATE
Dear Paul, Jar
Per Randy Harrel's request, SRP has prepared an Aesthetics Conceptual Cost'Estimate to bury an existing
12kV overhead span underbuilt on 69kV poles along EI Pueblo Blvd crossing Grande Blvd and replace both
two 69kV wood poles to steel at both ends of the 12kV span.
JOB SCOPE:
Underground Conversion: Install approximately 250 linear feet of trench and conduit and bore
approximately 200 linear feet. If SRP does civil work then SRP will be responsible for backfill and
restoration. SRP to install approximately three (3) three phase pad mounted devices, approximately two (2)
risers, and approximately 6,890 linear feet of underground primary and feeder aluminum conductor.
Overhead Removal: SRP to remove approximately 750 linear feet of conductor with neutral
69kV Pole Replacement: SRP to remove two (2) wood 69kV transmission poles (P-25 and P-26), one (1)
guy pole, and associated guy wires and transfer existing conductors. SRP to install two (2) self-supporting,
unguyed steel poles. Estimate assumes new poles can be set in place. If additional excavation and rocky
soils are encountered, the cost could increase substantially. The pole replacements are required with the
12kV conversion work due to the added load from construction of new facilities on the poles; however, the
pole replacements can also be done without the conversion so the guy wires and guy pole can be
eliminated.

REQUEST TO COUNCIL (Agenda Language): That the Mayor and Council review a request to address the governance of
Salt River Project (SRP) and provide direction to staff.

Staff Summary (background): Over the past several months, the Town Council has been contacted by
Fountain Hills resident Paul Getty regarding his concerns about the governance of Salt River Project (SRP).
Mr. Getty has requested that the Mayor and Council adopt a resolution supporting a change in the governance
structure of SRP. Mr. Getty provided the attached resolution which petitions Arizona state legislators to
sponsor legislation to amend the SRP Power District so that all SRP customers and/or landowners will have
the ability to vote in the SRP Board of Directors meetings.
In reviewing Mr. Getty's concerns, staff ascertained that there is a long and complicated history on how SRP's
governance was established. The Salt River Project (SRP) is the umbrella name for two separate entities: the
Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District, an agency of the state of Arizona formed in
1937 that serves as an electrical utility for the Phoenix metropolitan area, and the Salt River Valley Water
Users' Association, a utility cooperative founded in 1903 that serves as the primary water provider for much of
central Arizona.
The Association and District both lie within the overall boundary of the Salt River Reservoir District and are
divided into ten geographical voting areas, with certain excluded voting areas as illustrated on the map. The
Association is divided into 10 voting districts and the District is divided into 10 voting divisions. Each company
of SRP is governed separately. Both are elected by all landowners in the SRP service area through a "debt -
proportionate" system. For instance, a person who owns five acres casts five votes.
Page 1 of 3
For the Association, landowners elect a president, a vice president, a 10 -member board of governors and 30
council members. One governor and three council members are elected from each of the 10 voting districts.
The president and vice president are elected at -large, meaning they are elected by the sum of the votes from
all voting districts.
For the District, landowners elect a president, a vice president, a 14 -member board of directors and 30 council
members. One director and three council members are elected from each of the 10 voting divisions. The
president, vice president and four remaining directors are elected at -large from all voting divisions.The
Association is headed by a 10 -member board and a 30 -member council, while the District is headed by a 14 -
member board and a 30 -member council.
As Mr. Getty points out, this is a complicated governance structure and he would like Fountain Hills and
residents in other SRP service areas to participate in SRP elections. The governance structure is based on
the fact that ranchers and farmers who put up their land as collateral in order to sell bonds that paid for the
construction of SRP improvements. In exchange for collaterizing their lands, they received voting rights in
proportion to the amount of land owned. Over time a great deal of these agricultural lands have been
converted to other land uses such as residential, commercial, and industrial uses allowing more people to vote
in SRP elections. Since there were no farmers or ranchers in Fountain Hills who were a part of the co-op at
the time that SRP was founded, residents do not vote in SRP elections. However, Fountain Hills residents
have the ability to attend and speak at SRP Board of Director meetings on matters of concern.

BOUNDARY, VOTING RIGHTS, AND REPRESENTATION FOR FOUNTAIN HILLS.
WHEREAS, the Salt River Project (SRP) electric utility Power District Boundary, the SRP Board of

and other areas, outside the original 1937 District boundary; and
WHEREAS, The SRP Board of Directors sets rates and policies that affect the SRP electric utility
customers of Fountain Hills and the BOD is elected by property owners within the District
boundaries; but
WHEREAS, the citizens of Fountain Hills have No representation on the SRP BOD, have No voting
rights for electing representatives to the BOD, and cannot run for a position on the BOD, because
the Town of Fountain Hills lies outside the SRP District boundaries; and

and control, such as rate increases, without representation; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Fountain Hills is committed to American Values, Justice, Fairness, and

ARIZONA, as follows:

2. To fairly and equitably create new district areas in the expanded SRP Power District
to include all present-day customers of the SRP electric utility.

REQUEST TO COUNCIL (Agenda Language):
CONSIDERATION of an appeal of the administrative issuance of TEMPORARY USE PERMITS
allowing the Copperwynd Resort to conduct Wedding Events and Receptions both inside the resort
and on the outdoor event lawn after 10:00 PM.

Related Ordinance, Policy or Guiding Principle:
Fountain Hills Zoning Ordinance , Section 2.03.D.3 through 2.03.D6 - Temporary Use Permits
Staff Summary (background):
In 2013 the Town revised the Temporary Use Permit regulations to allow for administrative approval
by the Zoning Administrator for events and similar activities that, in the opinion of the Zoning
Administrator, would not be detrimental to the immediately surrounding area or Town.
Such administrative approvals are subject to the provision in Zoning Ordinance Section 2.03.D that if
an objection to the issuance of the permit is received, in writing, the Zoning Administrator must
forward the request to the Town Council for a decision rather than issue the permit himself.
Page 1 of 5
Copperwynd Event Permits
Since 2013 the Zoning Administrator has routinely issued Temporary Use Permits administratively to
the Copperwynd Resort which allow for outdoor Weddings and Receptions beyond the 10:00 PM limit
allowed in the Noise ordinance. These permits have typically included permission to conduct the
events until 12:00 AM (midnight) and have allowed DJ's, music, dancing and dining both inside the
resort and on the outdoor event lawn (typical permit attached).
Staff received written objections to the issuance of the permits on March 22, 2016 and March 25,
2016 (attached). Staff informed the Copperwynd Resort of the objections and they have requested
this hearing in order to ask that the Town Council allow the permits to continue to be issued
administratively.
Staff also informed the parties who filed the objections and requested that they be present to answer
questions and further explain their reasons for their objections.
Pursuant to Zoning Ordinance Section 2.03.D the Town Council must find;
"that the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the use applied for will not be detrimental to the
public health, safety, peace, comfort, and general welfare of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood of such proposed use, nor shall it be detrimental or injurious to properly and
improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the town."
Also,
"The Council may designate such conditions in connection with the temporary use permit, as it deems
appropriate to secure the intent and purposes of this ordinance and may require such guaranrees and
evidence that the applicant will comply with the conditions placed upon the temporary use permit. "
Staff believes that the continued operation of the Resort, including permitted events that may
continue past 10:00 PM, is not detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare of the
neighborhood or the town. Staff further believes that the occasional event that lasts until midnight is
an integral part of the resort's operation and continuing to allow them will not destroy the peace and
comfort of the area as it is only an occasional 2 -hour increase in an event's duration.
Risk Analysis (options or alternatives with implications):
Approval of the appeal will allow the Zoning Administrator to continue to issue the Temporary Event
Permits administratively, subject to any restrictions the Town Council deems appropriate.
Denial of the appeal will require that all future outdoor events at Copperwynd either end at 10:00 PM
or come before the Town Council for specific approval for each event.

issuance of the Temporary Use Permits allowing outdoor events at the Copperwynd Resort to
continue until 12:00 AM.

Fountain Hills Zoning Ordinance
Chapter 2 Procedures
Section 2.03 Temporary Use Permits
D. Action and Findings:
1. It is the express intent of this ordinance that any use for which a temporary use permit is required
shall be permitted in the particular zoning district, provided that all special conditions and requirements
of this ordinance are met. Therefore, the action of the staff shall be one of approval if the applicant
agrees to conform to all applicable regulations and the conditions placed upon the permit by the staff. If
there is any objection to the temporary use permit application or to the conditions stipulated by staff, the
matter shall be appealed to the Town Council. The Town Council shall determine if the temporary use
permit is to be granted based upon its judgment as to whether the specified conditions have been or
will be met; and whether such use can be compatible with the neighborhood and area where it is
located. The staff and Council shall consider not only the nature of the use and the special conditions
influencing its location in the particular district, but also the proposed location of buildings, parking and
other facilities within the site, the amount of traffic likely to be generated and how it will be
accommodated, and the influence that such factors are likely to exert on adjoining properties.
2. Reserved
3. Objections to the issuance of a temporary use permit shall be in writing. Such objections shall state
the reason(s) for the objection and protest. The written objection must also contain the name, address,
telephone number, and signature of the objector.
4. If there is a written objection received within ten (10) days of the commencement of the use allowed
by the temporary use permit, the Zoning Administrator shall suspend the temporary use permit until
Council renders a decision. The Council shall consider the application at the first regular meeting held
not less than fifteen (15) days after receipt of said protest. At this meeting, the Council may render a
decision on the matter or continue the matter to a specified date (but not later than the next regularly
scheduled meeting).
5. In order to grant an appealed temporary use permit, the findings of the Council must be that the
establishment, maintenance, or operation of the use applied for will not be detrimental to the public
health, safety, peace, comfort, and general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood
of such proposed use, nor shall it be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the
neighborhood or to the general welfare of the town.
6. The Council may designate such conditions in connection with the temporary use permit, as it deems
appropriate to secure the intent and purposes of this ordinance and may require such guarantees and
evidence that the applicant will comply with the conditions placed upon the temporary use permit.

beyond 10:00 p.m. at the Copperwynd Resort in Fountain Hills.
I am a homeowner and full-time resident of Fountain Hills. In addition to
homeowners, our neighborhood has numerous winter visitors who rent properties
resulting in a positive economic impact to our local economy. The outdoor
events (e.g. weddings, etc.) held at the Copperwynd Resort include excessively
loud outdoor music which is offensive to the senses, disturbs the peace and quiet
of our community and interferes with the comfortable enjoyment of life and
property for the homeowners and winter visitors residing in our community
(Section 11.1.7 Noise, Fountain Hills Town Code).
Please notify me of future Town Counsel Meetings that include Copperwynd
Resort permit requests so I may attend those meetings.

Dear Sir,
As Catering & Event Manager for CopperWynd Resort, I am coordinating the details for all of my March
2016 wedding receptions to be held at our resort.
The wedding and receptions will be held on our outdoor event lawn at CopperWynd from 5:OOpm-12:00
midnight. CopperWynd will be catering a dinner that evening from 4:30pm-7:OOpm and the wedding
party has hired a DJ to play music on the lawn from 7:OOpm-12:00 midnight.
We are aware of the ordinance that normally requires sound and lighting to end at 10:OOpm on this
outdoor area, however, at the request of the bridal party, CopperWynd Resort would like to apply for a
temporary use permit for that one night only, to have the music and lighting permit extended to 12:00
midnight.
We are aware that there will be a charge for this special temporary use permit, and would like to move
forward with your approval of the permit. I have listed all my events for March 2016.
Thank you for your consideration.

Copperwynd Event Hours
Staff has received numerous letters in opposition to the issuance of a Temporary Use Permit
which would allow the Copperwynd Resort to continue having events that last past 10:00 PM.
One letter is from The Villas at Copperwynd HOA. The other four are from residents of The
Villas.
As many of them have been delivered after the original staff report was submitted it is likely that
the Council may not have seen some of them. Please regard this memo as an addendum to the

Mr. Rodgers,

My wife and I live at the Villas at Copperwynd. We have owned here since 2007 and we are
full time year round residents. We will be traveling on April 7th for my wife's monthly
chemotherapy treatment and unable to attend the scheduled meeting. This will be trip number
34 which we make every 28 days. Obviously, her medical condition is very challenging.
We purchased this unit after living at Cordabella (the other Copperwynd community) for 7
years.
When we purchased this Villa, what appealed to us is just how quiet it is. Other than an
occasional car, we are very isolated from all of the traffic noise such as motorcycles and
trucks on Palisades and Sunridge Drive.
Therefore, we are opposed to any and all requests to allow Copperwynd to play music until
midnight. We did not invest in a luxury villa to be located next to a nightclub.
I do believe that many who own here who have now traveled back to their primary homes feel
the same way we do. It is unfortunate, that this meeting was not in March when all of our
owners are here.
Thank you for allowing us to provide feedback on this very important matter.

CopperWynd Resort & Club Variance Request
03-29-16P12:56 RCVD
Just wanted to make you aware that we are not in favor of the Town approving a variance to allow
the CopperWynd Resort & Club to conduct outdoor venues beyond the 10:00 PM currently allowed by Town
ordinances. We believe approval of this variance would negatively impact quality of life issues not only
for residents of the Villas at CopperWynd, but also residents of Cordabella at CopperWynd, Eagle Ridge,
and SunRidge Canyon, along with future residents of Adero Canyon (who will have no input on this variance,
but will certainly be affected by it, if approved).
Additionally, we are not in favor of the Town approving the Special Use Permit (SU 2016-02) submitted by the
CopperWynd Resort allowing potentially unlimited use of its facilities as an alcohol and drug rehabilitation and
wellness center. We fail to believe that its approval is in the best interests of the community, or that the
current CopperWynd Resort facilities can adequately accommodate an expanded use for the purpose
of successful rehabilitation. The Resort's SUP application states 'this request is being made simply to alleviate
the potential for non-compliance with the Ordinance if the majority of the guest population ever is visiting for
the primary treatment of a substance abuse issues'(sic). It is our understanding that the Resort can currently
engage in addiction treatment of guests up to 50% of the Resort's room capacity which is equal to 16 of the
total 32 rooms. The Resort's application statement implies that, at least at some point, they expect a majority
of 'guests' to be enrolled in a substance abuse program at the Resort.
We are residents of the Villas at CopperWynd in Villas. Thanks for your consideration.

Dear Mr. Rodgers,

My husband and I are strenuously opposed to an extension of the quiet hours past the current 10
PM limit for Copperwynd Resort.
Not only would it be a noise problem for the homeowners of Copperwynd, but it would also
encourage a different clientele than the current one.
From the city's perspective, if this exemption is granted to Copperwynd, there will be other
venues wanting the same treatment, setting up the city for problems all over town.
No; if this was needed for their business model, why are they just now requesting it? It's a bad
idea for all of us.

Dear Mr. Rodgers,
We are writing to you as a concerned Home Owner of Copperwynd Villas and a Member of
Copperwynd Resort. We purchased our home in Copperwynd by reason of the beautiful
location, breathtaking views, peacefulness, and overall upscale atmosphere of our
Neighborhood. We have several Winter Guests and visitors enjoying our Copperwynd
Community and the City of Fountain Hills all commenting on the quietness and cleanliness of
our location.
We object to the Development Services Department granting a permit extending outdoor
events beyond 10:00 pm at the Copperwynd Resort in Fountain Hills. The outdoor events held
at Copperwynd Resort would be heard not only in the Villas of Copperwynd but echoes down
the canyon and can be heard by the surrounding Neighborhoods. The loud outdoor noise
would disturb the peace and quiet of our communities and would negatively impact quality of
life for existing homeowners as well as visitors, renters and the new Adero Canyon
development residents.
Please keep Fountain Hills and its neighborhoods the unique places they are, by not accepting
the permit to extend outdoor events at the Copperwynd Resort.

It has come to my attention as a homeowner at Corabella that the Copperwynd Resort is filing
for a special use permit to allow them to play loud outdoor music past the 10pm limit.
Please accept this as my official objection and deny the Copperwynd Resort their request.
Fountain Hills is a beautiful community which needs to be preserved and the playing of loud

Mr. Rodgers.
Please accept and consider the comments in the attached letter related to the subject of this email. This is a very
important matter and potentially has extremely significant negative impacts on our community, the Villas at
Copperwynd, and neighboring communities. Based on the historical operation and experiences that we have
observed related to the Resort's special events and their impact on our community, My wife and I strong
recommend that the Town not only den, the Resort's request to extend the allowable hours for its special events
from 10:00 pm to rnid-night, but also nut mitigating conditions on its existing pen -nit to lessen the negative
impacts to our community.__
I intend to submit additional comments for your consideration related to the Special Use Permit Application for
the Resorts "Club Wellness Center" after I attend the informational meetings that the Resort has scheduled for
April 04, 2016, for its members and for homeowners in the Villas at Copperwynd, and some independent

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or need additional information.

Subject: Copperwynd Request for Longer Hours of Operation
Dear Mr. Rodgers:
04-04-16P01:43 RCVD
We just became aware of a request by Copperwynd to continue to have administrative rather
than Town Council approval for special use permits to extend its hours of operation beyond
the normal ordinance closing time of 10:00 p.m. to instead 12:00 midnight for parties to be
held both inside and outside of their buildings.
While not all of the residence of SunRidge Canyon (788 homes) would be concerned about this,
there are a number of owners who live directly down the Canyon from Copperwynd and are
directly affected by these, often times, loud parties. Because the Zoning Ordinances at Sec.
2.03D state in part that variances such as these must not be detrimental to the peace,
comfort and general welfare of the persons residing in the neighborhood of such proposed use,
it seems logical to me that the Town Council should be aware of each such variance and vote
on the approval of each request as they are our elected officials. This would ensure that
residence would have knowledge of each request via the Council's meeting agendas and be able
to voice their opinion on each matter to the Town Council before the extension of hours is
either approved or disapproved.
We believe the Town's ordinances concerning closing times were written with reason and that
variances should only be granted in rare and unusual circumstances. Shutting down loud
parties at 10:00 p.m. seems in tune with maintaining the peace, comfort and general welfare
of the persons, such as many residence of SunRidge Canyon, residing near Copperwynd.

I am a homeowner living for the last 16 years at Copperwynd Villas.
I object to the granting of permits beyond 10:00 p.m. to the Copperwynd Resort.
I can clearly hear the music going on and believe 10:00 p.m. is sufficient.

Re: Copperwynd Resort, Special Permit Request to Extend the Towns Quiet Hours Policy past 10pm
We object to the granting of permits beyond 10:00pm to the Copperwynd Resort.
We live in the Copperwynd Villas adjacent to the main Resort building. Our Villa is 250 feet from their
building.
We believe that granting this permit will be detrimental to the peace, comfort, property values and
resale opportunities for our residence. Our Villa was purchased with the knowledge of existing Town
Noise policies. We do not want it changed.

Dear Mr. Rodgers,
My wife and I have recently purchased a villa in Copperwynd and are opposed to the variance being
requested by Copperwynd Resort management to change the noise abatement start time from l OPM to
midnight. In considering this request we hope you will appreciate the critical factors that lead residents like us
to choose Fountain Hills over other local options such as Scottsdale or Mesa.
Fountain Hills is a "Dark Sky" city and we and many others love the quiet time (before and after l OPM) to
enjoy the inspiring views of the night sky in tranquility. We also appreciate the sense of safety and security, the
lack of traffic congestion, the close sense of community and family and the nearby natural world of National
Forests, preserves and reservations we find here. Fountain Hills is made special by these characteristics. There
are many other places that offer better restaurants, entertainment venues and shopping but which lack the
natural beauty and safe convenience of our city.
l OPM has been set by statute as the standard for outdoor quiet in the city in general and the close proximity of
the resort facilities at Copperwynd to our residences makes this a particularly important factor that insures our
right for quiet enjoyment of our properties. I can tell you based on personal experience that the parties and
happy hours already being held in the evenings can be definitely be heard at the villas and beyond. We
understand that Copperwynd is a resort and as residents appreciate the benefits that a successful resort nearby
brings to us. We bought into this neighborhood in large part because of the resort lifestyle options and sincerely
want the resort to prosper. Nevertheless we think that l OPM is a reasonable cutoff point for noisy outdoor
activities.
Thanks very much for your consideration.

Noise Variance for Copperwynd Resort and Club

Fountain Hills, Arizona 85268
Dear Mr. Rodgers,
My wife and I have lived at Villas at Copperwynd since 2002 and we love it here. We are,
however, opposed to the variance being requested by Copperwynd Resort and Club to allow outdoor music to
be played after 10:00 PM.
We bought into this neighborhood in large part because of the resort lifestyle options and sincerely want the
resort to prosper. Nevertheless we think that 10:OOPM is a reasonable cutoff point for noisy outdoor activities.
The music is mostly for weddings at the resort. We do not believe that moving the music indoors at 10:00 PM
will hurt the "Wedding" business for the resort as most of the older people (usually the people paying the bill)
are ready to call it a day. The younger people who still would like to dance a little longer can then move
indoors with the music and continue to enjoy themself.
Thanks very much for your consideration.

Dear Mr. Rodgers;
As a resident of Cordabeiia and a member of Copperwynd i am
writing to you in support of granting the resort a perr'm K to entend the
playing of outdoor music after 10:00 pm. It is unreasonable to
expect a resort to close down a wedding reception or private party
at 1®:®® pm. Being the house closest to Copperwynd, 0 bariey hear
the music. @Vhiie I understand the first couple of buU&ngs of the
Mifts do hear the music, (we use to own unit_) but we would
have to be outside to hearths music. i be0ieve that is the price you
pay for Giving within waWng distance to the resort.
0 would think the residence of the VMa`s would rather have a few
weekends of music than the option of closing the resort due to Zack
of business. The new resort if bsautiffui and a much needed amenity
for FountaM Gills, it shoUd be able to operate at a level to
accommodate their members and hotel guest.

Subject: CopperWynd Resort; After Hours Permit
Dear Mr. Rogers:
First, please allow me congratulate you on a wonderful job you have been delivering serving our beautiful town while
maintaining a sensitive balance between preserving the unique character of our community and helping local businesses
to strive.
I am writing you to express my support of upholding the After Hours Permit for Copperwynd Club and Resort.
I have been enjoying Copperwynd club membership since 2004. It is my sincere opinion, that the club cannot stay
financially profitable without allowing events, such as weddings taking place there. You will probably understand that
limiting weddings to end up by 10 PM would dramatically decrease marketability of such venues. I am afraid it will have a
negative financial impact not only for the club, but will also result in loss of sales and bed tax revenues for the town.
As you may know, the new owners recently remodeled the whole resort and invested a lot of their efforts and resources
into creating a world class resort. As a member, and as a Fountain Hills resident, I am very grateful to see such passion
and commitment.
I understand that there is a quiet enjoyment issue raised by some members and homeowners. I can assure you, our new
owners are very accommodating and involved with the community needs. I am positive that they will be willing to
demonstrate their preparedness to minimize the impact of extended hours on members and homeowners.
Thank you for considering my opinion

Staff Summary (background):
EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The subject property is the existing Unit C-3 of the Firerock Commerce Park Industrial
Condominiums, located at 9521 Technology Drive. Unit C-3 is approximately 4,889 square feet in
size and shares the enclosed storage yard behind the building with units C-1 and C-2.
Page 1 of 5
Desert Dawg (Uhaul)
Parking is common to all units on the property. The property is zoned IND -2 IUPD.
The General Plan identifies this area as "Industrial".
Surrounding Land Uses:
North — Four Peaks (Target) plaza — Zoned C-2 PUD
South — Technology Drive, then U -haul Storage — Zoned IND -2
East — Saguaro Blvd, then Multi -Family Residential — Zoned R-3
West — Technology Drive, then Van's Storage — Zoned IND -1
The proposed use (U -Haul Truck Rentals) is consistent with this district, subject to a Special Use
Permit in order to be located within the IND -2 IUPD zoning district.
REQUEST:
This application requests approval of a Special Use Permit to allow truck rentals pursuant to Zoning
Ordinance Section 13.03.D.
SPECIAL USE PERMIT:
Section 13.03.D of the Zoning Ordinance allows Truck Rental uses by Special Use Permit provided
that the applicant provides the number of trucks that will be rented and allows intermittent periodic
inspections to ensure compliance with any conditions of the Special Use Permit.
Section 2.02.D of the Zoning Ordinance indicates that the following factors should be considered in the
review of a Special Use Permit:
1. Special conditions influencing its location.
Staff.- The Firerock Commerce Park industrial condominiums are located behind Target Plaza
which is on Shea Blvd, the main east -west arterial street in Fountain Hills. Access to Technology
Drive and Shea Blvd is excellent The property is zoned for industrial uses and this tenant
currently occupies the proposed location as an automotive repair facility.
2. Proposed location of buildings, parking and other facilities.
Staff No new buildings are proposed. The walled enclosure will contain the trucks to be rented
as well as any vehicles under repair. The existing unit will receive tenant improvements on the
inside only. The shared parking is adequate to handle this expanded use.
3. Amount of traffic likely to be generated.
Staff.- The proposal will not generate tragic in excess of the parking lot's circulation and design
capacity.
4. Influence that the above factors are likely to exert on adjoining properties.
Staff. The character of the area immediately around the property is currently industrial. Saguaro
Blvd is not accessible by car directly from the property. Noise, litter, or other undesirable
conditions that could negatively affect the area are not expected to be any greater than normally
associated with industrial parks.
In order to approve a Special Use Permit, the findings of the Council must be that the establishment,
maintenance, or operation of the use or building applied for will not be detrimental to the public
health, safety, peace, comfort, and general welfare of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood of such proposed use, nor shall it be detrimental or injurious to property and
improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the town.
Page 2 of 5
Desert Dawg (Uhaul)
The Town Council may include any conditions in connection with the Special Use Permit that it
deems appropriate to secure the intent and purposes of the ordinance and may require guarantees
and evidence that the conditions are being, or will be followed.
An example of such conditions may be found in the neighboring storage facility's Special Use Permit
that also allows truck rentals. This facility was limited to 6 trucks at a time due to inadequate parking
areas. (See 7/1/2003 Council Minutes; attached)
Risk Analysis:
Approval of the proposal will permit the applicant to rent U -haul trucks at the proposed location.
Denial of the proposal will require that the applicant either re -design portions of the project and/or
provide additional information. Or, that the applicant move the business to another location.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no immediate fiscal impact anticipated.
Budget Reference (page number): NA
Funding Source: NA
If Multiple Funds utilized, list here: NA
Budgeted; if No, attach Budget Adjustment Form: NA
Staff Recommendation(s):
The following stipulations are recommended by Staff as conditions of approval:
1. The applicant shall not store any inventory or repair vehicles in the areas designated as shared
parking. All for -rent vehicle storage as well as storage of vehicles under repair shall be within
the enclosed area behind the building.
2. Signage is not included in this approval. All signage shall comply with the requirements of the

a new out of state location.
U -Haul brings the Truck & Trailer to our location and sometime when needed to pick them up

Previously residents were being sent to Scottsdale, Mesa etc. to pick up the rental they need.
Now they have the opportunity to get what they need, when they need it in their very own
Town of Fountain Hills.
All of the employees of the former Desert Dog Auto Service & Repair followed Al to his 10K

new changes that have already begun to take place and look forward to expanding services to
the Residents and Businesses of Fountain Hills.

COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES DATED February 11, 2016.
Vice -Chairman Eugene Mikolajczyk MOVED to APPROVE the meeting minutes dated Thursday,
February 11, 2016 as written. Commissioner Howie Jones SECONDED and the MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
AGENDA ITEMS #2 - CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE COMMENTS ON A
PROPOSED SPECIAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW TRUCK RENTALS BY DESERT DAWG
AUTO REPAIR AT 9521 TECHNOLOGY DRIVE, LOCATED IN THE "IND -2 IUPD" ZONING
DISTRICT. (CASE# SU2016-15)
Chairman Archambault opened the Public Hearing at 6:32 p.m.
Paul Mood, Development Services Director gave a PowerPoint presentation & stated the application is for
a Special Use Permit to allow Desert Dawg Auto to rent U -Haul Trucks in the Ind -2 IUPD zoning district.
The property is located at 9521 Technology Drive, Unit C-3, in the "Firerock Commerce Park, industrial
Condominiums, directly behind the Target Plaza. Mr. Mood referred to aerial photos showing the
location and a walled in area at the rear which is the designated outdoor storage area for all three
condominium units in this building. This is the area that staff has noted in the recommended stipulations
for the U -Haul truck inventory storage and/or display. Mr. Mood said the parking spaces in the
foreground are common spaces for the Commerce Park and are required to be available for employee and
customer parking and are not to be used as outdoor display areas. Mr. Mood said staff has discussed the
proposal with the applicants and they originally indicated their agreement with the two stipulations
outlined in the staff report. Staff has recommended approval subject to the two stipulations outlined in the
staff report but since then it has become evident additional stipulations may be needed. Mr. Mood
referred to photos taken this week by Chairman Archambault. They appear to show the current situation
on this site. The rental trucks are still overflowing into the customer parking areas. If so, the current
situation does not comply with staff s recommended conditions of the Special Use Permit.
Mr. Mood said Chairman Archambault can elaborate on the photos and the applicant is present to answer
any questions.
Page 1 of 4
Chairman Archambault commented the photos were taken this morning and noticed the amount of
vehicles shown in the photo are less than in the past. He said this afternoon he observed cars parked in
the dirt area. Chair Archambault asked Mr. Mood if it was okay for parking on dirt.
Mr. Mood responded that parking is not allowed on dirt unless there is a dust palliative or "DG."
Chairman Archambault asked for any Call to the Public.
Wayne Warrington, resident and a business owner in Fountain Hills came forward and spoke in favor of
Desert Dawg's application for a Special use Permit to allow Desert Dawg Auto to rent U -Haul trucks.
Mr. Warrington stated he has known the business owner for several years and their business operations.
He pointed out in the overhead presentation photo the closed parking area. Mr. Warrington stated he
personally witnessed numerous customers throughout the year utilizing Desert Dawg indicating they are a
valuable business to the Fountain Hills community.
Chairman Archambault commented on the upper left overhead presentation photo showing Desert Dawg
in compliance within the gated area. Is
Chairman Archambault commented the public hearing was still open and closed the Public Hearing at
6:39 p.m.
AGENDA ITEM #3 - CONSIDERATION OF A PROPOSED SPECIAL USE PERMIT TO
TRUCK RENTALS BY DESERT DAWG AUTO REPAIR AT 9521 TECHNOLOGY DRIVE,
LOCATED IN THE "IND -2 IUPD" ZONING DISTRICT. (CASE #SU2016-15)
In response to Commissioner Jones, Mr. Warrington stated he heard from customers that this is a great
company. Desert Dawg made a move to an industrial park that remained vacant and struggling. They are
making this location work and by having the special use permit they could meet the needs of the
community.
Commissioner Jones asked if this was the fourth U -Haul facility in Fountain Hills.
Mr. Warrington said there is one behind Desert Dawg which is a U Haul storage but they could not keep
up with the rental demand. Desert Dawg would be able to offer the rentals the U Haul storage could not.
Desert Dawg has been named a dealer for U Haul and is busy since taking on the truck & trailer rentals.
V,
Commissioner Dempster asked the business owner about his landlord, the building and tenant
improvements.
Mr. Kurdzialek presented a letter from his landlord. The letter stated if at all possible please park the
trailers on the recess part of the building. The photos shown today display trucks parked behind the
curbed area and the trailers parked on the recess area. The landlord does not want cars or trucks parked in
the recess area because the slots are not long enough to accommodate. The trailers fit the slot size. Mr.
Kurdzialek said, The U Hauls are not visible from Technology Drive. The graphics on the windows are
the only advertising for U -Haul. Mr. Kurdzialek said, the public won't even know we provide U -Haul
because they are out of site at the back of the building. Mr. Kurdzialek stated he is allocated 3 trucks and
4 trailers for inventory. The other U Haul rentals in town on Saguaro have vans & 10 foot trucks. The U
— Haul behind Desert Dawg rents cube vans. Mr. Kurdzialek stated he is proposing that Desert Dawg be
allowed to park the trailers in the recess area and the trucks in the enclosed area in the back.
Vice -Chairman Mikolajczyk asked how long is Desert Dawg's agreement with U -Haul and if Desert
Dawg vacates the premises does the arrangement from U -Haul go with Desert Dawg.
Page 2 of 4
Mr. Kurdzialek said there is no specific timeframe or contract. He stated he is licensed to rent out the U -
Hauls. U -Haul knows what inventory Desert Dawg has on hand and handles all the paperwork. They
book the rentals through their traffic. The landlord is very happy with the trailers parked in the recess
area because it prevents customer cars from parking there and sticking out.
Chairman Archambault stated the special use permit requires Desert Dawg to put all the trucks and
trailers behind the wall area.
Mr. Kurdzialek stated he was not aware of that until code enforcement came to his business and he is now
aware of the stipulations. Mr. Kurdzialek stated he was applying for the SUP to sell trucks and didn't
realize it included restrictions about where the trucks or trailers were parked.
Chairman Archambault stated, although the landlord has requested the trailers to park on the side recess
area they cannot because of the zoning. In response to the landlord owning the property, the common area
is owned by the association. The association is made up of more than one owner.
In response to Commissioner Dempster, Chairman Archambault said the U -Hauls on Saguaro Blvd. are
zoned C-3 which allows truck rentals without a Special Use Permit. Desert Dawg is in an I-2 zoned area
which requires a SUP for trucks. SUP is not required for trailers. Stipulations state all rentals are
required to have the trucks in the back and behind gated area.
Mr. Kurdzialek stated he will abide by the stipulations but stated if the rentals cannot be seen business
may suffer.
Commissioner Owers asked Mr. Kurdzialek if he uses the vacant dirt lot adjacent to his business. Mr.
Kurdzialek said, sometimes it's used to turn around vehicles because the gate in the back is closed.
Delivery trucks have to back out into the vacant lot to turn around and exit.
In response to Vice -Chairman Mikolajczyk Mr. Mood stated Bob Rodgers advised him that the parking
areas or drive isles cannot be used for outdoor display. Ultimately the Planning and Zoning Commission
will be making the recommendation to council. For this zoning area, rental vehicles are required to be
behind a gate. k.°.
Vice Chairman Mikolyczyk MOVED to forward a recommendation to the Town Council to approve the
Special Use Permit to Truck Rentals by Desert Dawg Auto Repair at 9521 Technology Drive, located in
the "IND -2 IUPD" zoning district as submitted, and add an amendment to allow the applicant to have a
trailer display in the cut out area until the vacant suite is occupied. Commissioner Jones SECONDED.
Commissioner Owers requested to add an amendment that the SUP is for Desert Dawg only and it would
not be transferable should the applicant move location.
Chairman Archambault stated there are two (2) staff stipulations and two (2) amendments. He said if
there was no further discussion or questions among the commission a vote would be taken. A voice vote
was taken on the amendments and the MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY (6-0).
Chairman Archambault asked for a voice vote on the main motion which is to forward a recommendation
to the Town Council to approve the Special Use Permit to Truck Rentals by Desert Dawg Auto Repair at
9521 Technology Drive, located in the "IND -2 IUPD" zoning district as submitted. The MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY (6-0).

AGENDA ITEM #11 - PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE COMMENTS ON A REQUEST FOR A
SPECIAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW TRUCK RENTAL AT 9264 TECHNOLOGY DRIVE AKA
FOUNTAIN HILLS BUSINESS P ARK REPLAT, .BLOCK 6, LOT 1. CASE NUMBER SU2003-05,
Mayor Nichols stated that this item was a public hearing to allow comments to be heard and declared the
public hearing open at this time.
Town Manager Tim Pickering indicated that Ms. Ruhling would provide an overview of this issue and
expressed appreciation to U -Haul for their cooperative efforts.
Ms. Ruhling said that this was a request for a Special Use Permit to allow truck rental in an industrially
zoned area. She referred to slides displayed in the Council Chambers and noted that the site was currently
referred to as the "U -haul" site and was located at 9264 Technology Drive. She noted that the site currently
housed a mini -storage facility and the request was to allow truck rentals to occur in this area. She noted that
previously the Town had not allowed truck rentals to take place in industrial zoned areas but added that a
text amendment was previously done to allow this use to be approved. She said that U -Haul was the first
applicant to apply for this use and said that Staff believed the use was compatible with the area and added
that the application met all Town of Fountain Hills' Zoning Ordinance requirements.
Discussion ensued relative to the fact that one of the concerns brought forward by the Planning and .Zoning
Commission as well as adjacent residential development had to do with landscaping and buffering and the
fact that the proposed plan provided for landscaping to be put in place that would screen the trucks bort not
necessarily keep them behind closed doors; the fact that a nicely screened fence was being proposed to serve
as a buffer•, the fact that the entire site would also be screened by a masonry wall to the rear and sides and a
wrought iron fence with slats to the front of the property; the fact that at the "very most" only the top portion
of trucks would be able to be viewed; the fact that the text amendment that was approved allowed for a.
minimum of four trucks to be on site and that parking be provided for those and the fact that Staff had
determined that based upon parking shown on the site plan, this site would allow up to six rental trucks to be
stored on site; the fact that any additional trucks would be removed immediately to the site in Scottsdale;
and the fact that adequate parking was provided for up to six trucks,
Ms. Ruhling reiterated Staff's opinion that the request be approved and noted that the Planning .and Zoning
Commission had also reviewed the plan and recommended approval. She said that the applicant was
present and would like to address the Council.
In response to a question from Councilman Archambault, Ms. Ruhl ing advised that the property was under a
PUD and added that before the Council approved the text amendment, the ordinance did not allow for any
car or truck rental to occur anywhere other than in C-3 zoning districts.
Councilman Archambault stated the opinion that the PUD that was on this property was the same as the one
on his property and said it was his understanding that rentals were not allowed. Ms. Ruhling commented
that she did not remember reading anywhere that truck rentals were not allowed on this site but indicated her
intention to double check this matter.
Todd Williams, 2727 North Central .Avenue, Phoenix, the applicant in this case, said that they were happy
that they had reached this point and that the process had been a long but productive one. He expressed his
appreciation to the Town of Fountain Hills for efforts to work with U -Haul on this request said that they
were basically happy with all that Staff had done and the information included in their presentation,
including all of their recommendations.
Councilman Melendez commended Mr. Williams for presenting positive comments relative to Staff.
Mayor Nichols also complimented the applicant on his efforts to work with the neighbors in an effort to
alleviate their concerns.
There being no requests from the public to speak on this issue, the Mayor declared the public hearing closed
at this time.

PERMIT TO ALLOW TRUCK RENTAL AT 9264 TECHNOLOGY DRIVE, AICA FOUNTAIN
HILLS BUSINESS PARD REPLAT, BLOCK 6. LOT 1, CASE NUMIBER SU2003-05.
Mayor Nichols said that he would entertain a motion on this item.
Councilman Kavanagh commented that in terms of neighborhood groups, this issue has been one of the
most contentious brought before the Council and complimented everyone involved on their efforts to bring
this issue to a successful, positive conclusion. He also commended Staffs particularly the Town Prosecutor,
on their extensive efforts.
Councilman Kavanagh MONIED to approve the request for a Special Use Permit to allow truck rentals at
4264 Technology Drive.
The Mayor clarified that the motion was to approve the issuance of the Special Use Permit and
Councilwoman Nicola SECONDED the motion.

Related Ordinance, Policy or Guiding Principle:
Staff Summary (background): On November 11, 2015, the Town advertised a request for qualifications from
architectural firms for the Fire Station No. 2 project. A mandatory pre -submittal conference was held on
December 2, 2015 and statements of qualifications were received from eight firms on December 16, 2015.
Based on the scoring criteria provided in the request for qualifications three firms were short-listed for
interviews. On February 2, 2016 interviews were held with Arrington Watkins, Hunt & Caraway Architects and
WSM Architects. Based on the scoring criteria for the interviews, the selection panel chose Hunt & Caraway
as the top ranked firm and staff began contract negotiations. The qualifications based selection process was
done pursuant to Arizona Revised Statute Title 34-603.
The new fire station will be approximately 5,000 square feet with an additional 3,900 square feet for three
apparatus bays, emergency generator, radio tower and landscaping. The intent is to design the fire station so
that its architectural features blend within the surrounding area. Meetings during the schematic design phase
will be planned with the neighboring properties in the area. The project also includes a joint access driveway
on EPCOR property immediately north of the site to enable EPCOR access to their facilities to the west of the
site. The design and construction of the driveway is estimated at approximately $300,000 and will be shared
between the Town and Chaparral City Water. The design portion of the attached contract for the shared
driveway is $32,282.50.
The professional services agreement will provide for architectural services during design as well as the
construction and warranty phases of the project. The agreement also includes an owner's allowance of
$15,000.

THIS PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of
April 7, 2016, between the Town of Fountain Hills, an Arizona municipal corporation (the
"Town"), and Hunt & Caraway Architects, Ltd., an Arizona corporation (the "Consultant").
RECITALS
A. The Town issued a Request for Qualifications, "Fire Station No. 2 Architectural
Services" (the "RFQ"), a copy of which is on file in the Town Clerk's Office and incorporated
herein by reference, seeking statements of qualifications from vendors for (i) the design of
Fountain Hills Fire Station No. 2 located at the northwest corner of Fountain Hills Boulevard and
Muskrat Lane (APN 176-13-617W), (ii) assisting the Town with the bidding of the construction for
the facility and (iii) architectural services during construction (collectively, the "Services").
B. The Consultant responded to the RFQ by submitting a Statement of Qualifications
(the "SOQ"), attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference, and the Town
desires to enter into an Agreement with the Consultant for the Services.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing introduction and recitals, which
are incorporated herein by reference, the following mutual covenants and conditions, and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
the Town and the Consultant hereby agree as follows:
1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date first set
forth above and shall remain in full force and effect until April 6, 2017 (the "Initial Term"),
unless terminated as otherwise provided in this Agreement. After the expiration of the Initial
Term, this Agreement may be renewed for up to two successive one-year terms (each, a
"Renewal Term") if (i) it is deemed in the best interests of the Town, subject to availability and
appropriation of funds for renewal in each subsequent year, (ii) at least 30 days prior to the end
of the then -current term of this Agreement, the Consultant requests, in writing, to extend this
Agreement for an additional one-year term and (iii) the Town approves the additional one-year
term in writing (including any price adjustments approved as part of this Agreement), as

limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and the costs of appellate proceedings) to

an AM Best, Inc. rating of A- or above with policies and forms satisfactory to the Town.
Failure to maintain insurance as specified herein may result in termination of this

herein, the Town does not represent that coverage and limits will be adequate to protect
Consultant. The Town reserves the right to review any and all of the insurance policies
and/or endorsements cited in this Agreement, but has no obligation to do so. Failure to
demand such evidence of full compliance with the insurance requirements set forth in this

insurance at all times during the performance of this Agreement.

Compensation insurance and Professional Liability insurance, if applicable, shall name,
to the fullest extent permitted by law for claims arising out of the performance of this

insurer(s) as evidence that policies are placed with acceptable insurers as specified herein
and provide the required coverages, conditions and limits of coverage specified in this
Agreement and that such coverage and provisions are in full force and effect.
Confidential information such as the policy premium may be redacted from the
declaration page(s) of each insurance policy, provided that such redactions do not alter
any of the information required by this Agreement. The Town shall reasonably rely upon
the certificates of insurance and declaration page(s) of the insurance policies as evidence
of coverage but such acceptance and reliance shall not waive or alter in any way the
insurance requirements or obligations of this Agreement. If any of the policies required
by this Agreement expire during the life of this Agreement, it shall be Consultant's
responsibility to forward renewal certificates and declaration page(s) to the Town 30 days
prior to the expiration date. All certificates of insurance and declarations required by this

2636883.1

12.2 For Cause. If either party fails to perform any obligation pursuant to this
Agreement and such party fails to cure its nonperformance within 30 days after notice of
nonperformance is given by the non -defaulting parry, such party will be in default. In the event
of such default, the non -defaulting party may terminate this Agreement immediately for cause
and will have all remedies that are available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation,
the remedy of specific performance. If the nature of the defaulting party's nonperformance is
such that it cannot reasonably be cured within 30 days, then the defaulting party will have such
additional periods of time as may be reasonably necessary under the circumstances, provided the
defaulting parry immediately (A) provides written notice to the non -defaulting party and (B)
commences to cure its nonperformance and thereafter diligently continues to completion the cure
of its nonperformance. In no event shall any such cure period exceed 90 days. In the event of
such termination for cause, payment shall be made by the Town to the Consultant for the
undisputed portion of its fee due as of the termination date.
12.3 Due to Work Stoppage. This Agreement may be terminated by the Town
upon 30 days' written notice to Consultant in the event that the Services are permanently
abandoned. In the event of such termination due to work stoppage, payment shall be made by
the Town to the Consultant for the undisputed portion of its fee due as of the termination date.
12.4 Conflict of Interest. This Agreement is subject to the provisions of ARM
REv. STAT. § 38-511. The Town may cancel this Agreement without penalty or further
obligations by the Town or any of its departments or agencies if any person significantly

Town or any of its departments or agencies is, at any time while this Agreement or any extension
of this Agreement is in effect, an employee of any other party to this Agreement in any capacity
or a consultant to any other party of this Agreement with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement.
12.5 Gratuities. The Town may, by written notice to the Consultant, cancel this
Agreement if it is found by the Town that gratuities, in the form of economic opportunity, future
employment, entertainment, gifts or otherwise, were offered or given by the Consultant or any
agent or representative of the Consultant to any officer, agent or employee of the Town for the
purpose of securing this Agreement. In the event this Agreement is canceled by the Town
pursuant to this provision, the Town shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights and
remedies, to recover and withhold from the Consultant an amount equal to 150% of the gratuity.
12.6 Agreement Subject to Appropriation. Town is obligated only to pay its
obligations set forth in this Agreement as may lawfully be made from funds appropriated and
budgeted for that purpose during Town's then current fiscal year. The Town's obligations under

decision of the Town concerning budgeted purposes and appropriation of funds. Should Town

availability of funds for its obligations under this Agreement. Town shall keep Consultant

in any way to Town's termination of this Agreement pursuant to this section.

8
affect any other provision or application of this Agreement which may remain in effect without
the invalid provision or application.
13.7 Relationship of the Parties. It is clearly understood that each party will act
in its individual capacity and not as an agent, employee, partner, joint venturer, or associate of
the other. An employee or agent of one party shall not be deemed or construed to be the
employee or agent of the other for any purpose whatsoever. The Consultant is advised that taxes
or Social Security payments will not be withheld from any Town payments issued hereunder and

tax applicable to this Agreement.

Town Manager, and no delegation of any duty of Consultant shall be made without prior, written
permission of the Town, signed by the Town Manager. Any attempted assignment or delegation
by Consultant in violation of this provision shall be a breach of this Agreement by Consultant.
13.10 Subcontracts. No subcontract shall be entered into by the Consultant with
any other party to furnish any of the material or services specified herein without the prior
written approval of the Town. The Consultant is responsible for performance under this
Agreement whether or not subcontractors are used. Failure to pay subcontractors in a timely
manner pursuant to any subcontract shall be a material breach of this Agreement by Consultant.
13.11 Rights and Remedies. No provision in this Agreement shall be construed,
expressly or by implication, as waiver by the Town of any existing or future right and/or remedy
available by law in the event of any claim of default or breach of this Agreement. The failure of
the Town to insist upon the strict performance of any term or condition of this Agreement or to
exercise or delay the exercise of any right or remedy provided in this Agreement, or by law, or
the Town's acceptance of and payment for services, shall not release the Consultant from any
responsibilities or obligations imposed by this Agreement or by law, and shall not be deemed a
waiver of any right of the Town to insist upon the strict performance of this Agreement.
13.12 Attorneys' Fees. In the event either party brings any action for any relief,
declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Agreement or on account of any breach or default
hereof, the prevailing parry shall be entitled to receive from the other parry reasonable attorneys'

RE: Statement of Qualifications I Fire Station #2 Architectural Services
Dear Mr. Mood and Members of the Selection Panel:
As a design firm solely focused on public facilities, we see the Town of Fountain
Hills project as an opportunity for Hunt & Caraway Architects to bring together all
of the elements that make us excellent at planning and design. We have designed
numerous public works projects over our 21 year history and are excited for the
opportunity to work once again for the Town of Fountain Hills.
The Town of Fountain Hills will derive great benefit from working with Hunt &
Caraway because we offer:
• Local knowledge, comparative experience, and a great relationship with the
fire department.
• Direct, decisive involvement on a principal level that provides quick
decision making and professional guidance at every step of the process.
• True collaboration by listening to your needs and goals.
• Follow through on everything to which we commit.
• Professional advice and best design practices from a firm that specializes in
public work.
• Cost effective solutions that meet cutting-edge design criteria and
sustainability goals.
Hunt & Caraway Architects is very familiar with the Town of Fountain Hills processes
and the Fire Department's operational needs, having developed a permitted set of
construction documents for your original Shea Boulevard site and a previous concept
for this Fountain Hills Boulevard and Muskrat Lane site. This past relationship
and dynamic, along with the alternative approach design concept presented in this
proposal, will enable Hunt & Caraway Architects and the Town to gain input from the
Palatial Estates property owners and expedite design and construction.
Hunt & Caraway Architects has provided a wide range of services for our clients that
include assessments of existing sites to full programming, design, and construction
for special use facilities. From infill projects to municipal buildings, remodels and
additions, Hunt & Caraway has done it all—successfully!
Hunt & Caraway has received Addendum 1 dated December 8, 2015 and incorporated
it in this response. As well, we have read your Professional Service Agreement and
understand all elements therein.
Sincerely,
Tamara Caraway
Executive Vice President

PLAN THE PLAN / INITIAL PROGRAMMING MEETING
Meet with Owner's designated proj ect representative, and end-user groups as identified, to review the approach, confirm
01 the program and review the current design concept. This meeting help establish the Design Review team members,
schedule meetings, establish expectations and responsibilities of team members, identify goals and objectives, and
establish the project schedule and set "bench marks". All fundamental elements of program, meetings, presentations,
and basis of budizet are developed for Town approval.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN PHASE / IMPLEMENT PROGRAM AND SCHEMATIC DESIGN
0 During this phase the team advances with Town approved program to further develop the Concept Design, develop
(`J master plan, outline specifications, and construction cost. Estimate for building and site costs separately. Obtain
approval of schematic phase from Town prior to next phase.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT PHASE / DEVELOP SCHEMATIC DOCUMENTS INTO DESIGN
03 At this phase the team will discuss key building systems compatible to existing; review options for energy savings,
including exterior building materials. Hunt & Caraway will review these options with the Design Review Team,
solicit input from all stakeholders, share discovery findings of the existing conditions, and provide options. We will
review the three imperatives, Scope, Quality and Budget, back -checking to ensure all program elements have been
satisfied. The final step will be to obtain approval of Design Development Phase before progressing to the Construction
Documents Phase. Hunt & Caraway uses historical cost information for estimating with a third parry review for real-
time relevancy and market data. Regular meetings in this phase are critical for effective cost management.
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS PHASE / DEVELOP FINAL BID DOCUMENT 4W
Hunt & Caraway will develop Construction Documents Final drawings, Narrative, Final Specifications (CSI Format),
O Final Calculations, and Final Cost Estimate, once again reviewing the three imperatives, Scope, Quality and Budget
and back -checking to ensure all program elements have been satisfied. We will obtain permit approval of Construction
Documents Phase before bid solicitations and review and seek approval by the Design Review Team.
CONSTRUCTION BID/AWARD PHASE / BIDDING AND NEGOTIATION
During this phase documents will be distributed for bidding to achieve the best possible price. Hunt & Caraway will
05 respond to bid questions or clarification and issue addendum. We will review, administer and make recommendations
to award to construct. We will facilitate the Pre -Bid Conference with the Town, and assist in conducting the bid
opening and evaluation and recommendation.
CONSTRUCTION PHASE / CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION
Hunt & Caraway will attend and co -facilitate pre -construction meetings to establish staging, operations requirements
06 per local jurisdictions, communication processes, and meeting documentation. We will review shop drawings and
submittals, issuing construction reports and necessary documents (RFI, ASI, PR, CO). As a team we will monitor
progress (review 3 week construction look ahead schedule); reject nonconforming materials or workmanship; review
pay applications, review "as -built" documentation regularly. Additionally we will oversee development of a "Punch
List" and issue the Certificate of Substantial Completion and conduct final walk-through with Design Review Team.
POST CONSTRUCTION PHASE / CLOSEOUT AND COMPLETION
07 During the Post Construction Phase we will ensure all project closeout documents are completed (as-builts, certificate
of occupancy, O & M Manuals and final pay application), systems and equipment personnel training is executed, and
conduct a warranty and one or two year post -construction evaluation.
We will be present and dedicated to the Town. We
pride ourselves on giving honest assessments to design
problems, always making certain that our design
recommendations are achieved through the collaboration
process. As a team, we are here to listen to your wants and
needs and make things happen! Principal involvement
at every step, listening to the Town and end-users,
and following through to help the Town make the best
decisions is our primary job. We commit to ensuring
your money is spent efficiently and gives the Town the
best facilities to continue keeping the community safe.
Hunt & Caraway Architects has the manpower, skills and
resources to complete Fire Station No. 2 on schedule,
while also achieving budget, quality, and safety goals.
2. Describe any alternate approaches, if it is believed that
such an approach would best suit the needs of the town.
Include rationale for alternative approaches and indicate
how the vendor will ensure that all efforts are coordinated
with the Town's Representatives.
Hunt & Caraway Architects understands the Town of
Fountain Hills has previously engaged consultants to
provide assessment and preliminary design documents
for site utilization, including a traffic signal study. This
is an excellent way to gather key information and a
critical exploratory phase to gain insight on community
perceptions and develop an understanding of tasks to
proceed into a full design and engineering plan. We
have provided and facilitated this early pre -planning
process with other municipalities and public projects;
this experience will enable us to utilize the information
collected and developed to date to efficiently move
forward developing a comprehensive site plan, design
concepts / options and bidding documents for a facility
that meets your budget and schedule requirements.
0
Utilizing a process involving all stakeholders, Hunt &
Caraway endeavors to inform you as the client so critical
decisions will be based on the conscientious, explicit,
and judicious use of current best evidence collected.
This results, when effectively translated by a creative,
innovative team into a total pleasing environment:
appealing public image from the street as you approach
the facility, a confident visitor who easily navigates to
find where they are going, safe vehicular and pedestrian
movement between large emergency vehicles and visitors,
and most important — a facility that is welcome within the
residential environment — where the community has their
thumbprint on the design.
Culling information from the comprehensive documents
produced from your pre -planning meetings, Development
Services and Planning and Zoning Departments for land
use/open space and landscape, Hunt & CarawayArchitects
will transform your site on Fountain Hills Boulevard
and Muskrat Lane to a high performing sustainable and
environmentally friendly facility the community will
be proud of. We recognize the commitment and passion
of our first responders to their profession of protecting
the community. The fire station is not only a place of
work but also a home for our emergency responders.
It is imperative to integrate their home into the fabric
of the natural and beautiful environment Fountain Hills
is so well known for. The station should be a reflection
of the community, preserving the scenic views of the
surrounding mountains; the Sonoran Desert and natural
vegetation are all treasures to protect. Hunt & Caraway
Architects' mission is to provide solutions that meet the
Town of Fountain Hills citizens, Mayor, Fire Chief and
first responders, City Council, and Development Services
Director's goals and expectations.

During our visit to the site, Hunt & Caraway Architects made a number of observations to provide an alternative solution
to enhance the site, preserve the natural beauty and connect with the neighborhood in ways listed on the following pages:
YAtli1J: -
Site Plan Elements
1. Provide residential -friendly building elements near
existing residences, such as dorms, study, and day room.
2. Ease the turning radius of large emergency vehicles by
moving the bays further from the access road.
3. Minimize vertical elements'proximity to residences by
moving higher volume bays away from the north residence
to reduce obstruction of views and minimize scale.
4. No crossing ofpedestrian orpassenger vehicles on
emergency vehicle exit or entry drive.
5. Design takes advantage of existing electrical and sewer
locations, reducing connection runs.
6. Secured and private personnel space for employee parking,
patio and care of emergency vehicles.
Front of Building - Design Elements
A. Control and limit public access through design; public
access has dedicated parking off ofaccess road with
direct pedestrian access to only north side of building.
B. No crossing ofpedestrian or passenger vehicles on
emergency vehicle exit or entry drive.
C. Utilizing terrain reduces and breaks up roof and
building mass.
D. Residential elevation blended with community,
staggered bays and roof lines for sound mitigation and
visual screening.

Staff Summary (background): The Town has historically offered a comprehensive health and life benefit
package in order to attract and retain the best possible employees. Currently, the Town participates in the
Arizona Public Employers Health Pool (APEHP) for medical benefits, United Concordia is the dental insurance
provider, vision benefits are provided through Sightcare, and life insurance is provided through Lincoln Life
Insurance. These separate providers have various open enrollments, billing, and COBRA practices
(Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, allowing continued coverage after employees cease service
to the Town). Transitioning the Town to AzMT will consolidate benefits under one umbrella and allow the Town
to operate more efficiently and cost effectively while retaining high-quality employee benefits. AzMT was
formed in 2012 with four municipalities including Apache Junction, Avondale, EI Mirage, and Youngtown.
Since then Pinal County and the Buckeye Valley Fire District have joined AzMT for their employee benefits as
well.
The advantages of joining AzMT include:
• Immediate and ongoing yearly savings of approximately $100,000 per year
• Employee benefit coverage remains similar or improved
• Consolidation of open enrollment into one instead of three
• Consolidation of monthly invoicing into one instead of four
• COBRA management and administration through AzMT instead of Town Staff
• PPO Medical plan network continues to largely be consistent with current network and administrator -

Staff Summary (background): The Town has historically offered a comprehensive health and life benefit
package in order to attract and retain the best possible employees. Currently, the Town participates in the
Arizona Public Employers Health Pool (APEHP) for medical benefits, United Concordia is the dental insurance
provider, vision benefits are provided through Sightcare, and life insurance is provided through Lincoln Life
Insurance. These separate providers have various open enrollments, billing, and COBRA practices
(Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, allowing continued coverage after employees cease service
to the Town). Transitioning the Town to AzMT will consolidate benefits under one umbrella and allow the Town
to operate more efficiently and cost effectively while retaining high-quality employee benefits. AzMT was
formed in 2012 with four municipalities including Apache Junction, Avondale, EI Mirage, and Youngtown.
Since then Pinal County and the Buckeye Valley Fire District have joined AzMT for their employee benefits as
well.
The advantages of joining AzMT include:
• Immediate and ongoing yearly savings of approximately $100,000 per year
• Employee benefit coverage remains similar or improved
• Consolidation of open enrollment into one instead of three
• Consolidation of monthly invoicing into one instead of four
• COBRA management and administration through AzMT instead of Town Staff
• PPO Medical plan network continues to largely be consistent with current network and administrator -
Blue Cross Blue Shield network administered by AmeriBen

de
• Expanded dental provider network — Delta Dental would be the AzMT dental network which is wider
than United Concordia, the current provider
• No broker fees — the Town currently pays a 2% fee embedded within premiums, however with AzMT
there would be no need to pay a broker
• Employees will continue to pay $0 for individual coverage premium and dependent premiums remain
affordable compared to other cities / towns (see "Town of Fountain Hills Monthly Medical Costs...
attachment for specifics)
• Lower medical deductibles and out-of-pocket yearly maximums (see "AzMT Medical Schedule of
Benefits" and "APEHP... Medical Benefits for 2015-2016")
• APEHP has announced that after July 1, 2016, it will no longer offer a Flexible Spending Account to
employees which is used on a pre-tax basis for employees to pay for medical and childcare expenses;
AzMT administers a Flexible Spending Account which will be beneficial to our employees
The advantages to the Town and employees switching over to AzMT outweigh the perceived drawbacks. Due
to a combination of medical premium pricing plans and previous internal administration strategies, employees
currently on the high deductible health plan (HDHP) with health savings accounts (HSA) have received
significant monthly payments from the Town to their HSAs in addition to paying $0 for their premiums. This
policy is not actuarially sustainable, so the strategy requires a change and this may be viewed as a drawback.
However, as mentioned, employees with individual coverage will continue to pay $0 for their health coverage
and employees with dependent coverage remains affordable. Employees will have the option to mitigate this
issue by choosing to move to the PPO plan and enjoying the lower out-of-pocket costs for medical services
such as medical visits and prescriptions. The plan design of the PPO plan will likely lower total out-of-pocket
costs of employees. The only other perceived drawback associated with this change is that Mayo Clinic is not
currently part of the Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) PPO network and is not considered an in -network provider
by AzMT. Currently, APEHP has contracted with the Mayo Clinic as an in -network provider so Town
employees receive services at the lower in -network rates. This issue may be mitigated under the AzMT plan
by having those employees that currently have Mayo Clinic as their provider choose a different provider within
the Blue Cross Blue Shield network, the largest provider network in Arizona. Or, employees can continue to
obtain services from Mayo Clinic within the AzMT coverage however the pricing would be at the "out -of -
network" level.
The Town joined APEHP, its current provider for medical coverage, in January of 2014. Since then the Town's
medical premiums, by far the largest driver of overall benefit costs, have increased 16% and APEHP recently
announced a 2% increase effective July 1, 2016. By comparison, AzMT has not had an increase in medical
premiums since its inception in 2012. Therefore, if this trend continues, under the AzMT plan the Town could
continue to enjoy savings of nearly $100,000 per year in comparison to the current plan.
If approved, staff plans to transition the Town from APEHP, United Concordia, and Sightcare in a manner
acceptable to the providers and our employees. Staff will provide proper notice to the other benefit providers
which will not cause significant timing issues based on the targeted July 1, 2016 effective date. Staff has
provided some of the potential plan information to a small cross-section of employees and we plan to roll out
more details to employees through meetings with our representative from AzMT at least a month prior to the
open enrollment period. This should provide ample time for employees to make informed decisions.
If approved the Town would join AzMT effective on July 1, 2016 for at least 3 years. The AzMT agreement
prohibits entities from joining for less than three years and a former participating entity cannot rejoin until at
least three fiscal years have elapsed. This is done to stabilize the claims environment in a long-term approach,
by preventing entities from quickly rotating in and out of the group.
Risk Analysis (options or alternatives with implications):
Fiscal Impact (initial and ongoing costs; budget status): It is estimated that the Town will save approximately
$100,000 each year on a continuing basis with the change to AzMT. Currently the Town is projected to spend
over $400,000 per year for medical, dental and vision benefits, whereas with the proposed AzMT adaptation
this cost is projected to be approximately $300,000. Life insurance cost is expected to remain flat at
approximately $9,000 per year.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Q. What is a public employee benefit trust?
A. An employee benefit trust can take two forms. Individual public entities can form stand-alone
self-insured employee benefit programs under the provisions of ARS § 11-981. Groups of public
entities can come together to cooperatively provide employee benefit programs under ARS § 11-
952 and ARS § 11-952.01. The organizations formed using this latter method are frequently
called pools. AzMT is formed under ARS § 11-952.01.
2. Q. Are there other entities in the State of Arizona or my area that already participate in a
pool?
A. Yes. Public entities have formed pools for a variety of purposes including employee benefits,
workers' compensation, and property and liability coverage, since the mid -1980's.
3. Q. When was AzMT formed?
A. AzMT was formed on July 1, 2012 by the cities of Apache Junction, Avondale, El Mirage and
the Town of Youngtown. Since its formation, AzMT added Buckeye Valley Fire District and
Pinal County.
4. Q. What employee benefits are being offered through the AzMT Trust?
A. The following benefits are offered through the Trust:
• Medical/Prescription Drug — partially self-insured (4 plans)
• Dental — fully self-insured
• Vision — fully self-insured
• Life/AD&D — fully insured through The Standard Insurance
• Short -Term Disability — fully insured through Mutual of Omaha
• Employee Assistance Program — Alliance Work Partners
5. Q. What happens if a pool like this gets hit by one or more large claims? Won't that bankrupt
the program?
A. Neither a single large claim nor a group of large claims can bankrupt an employee benefit trust.
Why? Because pools of this type purchase a type of insurance called specific stop -loss (also
known as reinsurance) that reimburses the pool for claims over a pre -determined amount. For
example, if the specific stop -loss deductible is $100,000 and a medical bill comes through for
$250,000, the stop loss company reimburses the difference between the cost of the bill and
$100,000 (in AzMT's case the deductible is $240,000).

Metropolitan Trust
6. Q. What happens if you get more small claims than are expected?
A. If this happens, there are three possible scenarios. The first is that the pool purchases a product
called aggregate stop -loss that cuts in to protect the pool from a larger than anticipated number of
small claims. Aggregate stop -loss can reduce or eliminate exposure to assessments for pool
members. The second is to draw down the Trust's surplus. The third scenario is that
participating entities are required to send in additional dollars to cover any resulting deficit. This
process is called assessing members. Assessments are calculated on a pro -rata basis for the year
in which the deficit arises. Simply put, if your entity's contributions represent ten (or some other)
percent of the employee benefit pool, the entity pays that percentage of the deficit.
7. Q. What happens if there are surplus funds?
A. Surpluses can either be held by the pool to provide a cushion against deficits that may accrue in
the future or be returned to member entities according to a method approved by the Trustees.
Like deficits, surpluses are distributed amongst the members on a pro -rata basis.
8. Q. Why would my entity want to consider joining with other area municipalities to provide for
employee benefits?
A. Whether buying photocopy paper, vehicles or employee benefits, the fact remains that the larger
the number, the greater the negotiating power and potential for savings. Small entities operating
alone have very little clout due to their small size. Bringing several entities together to form one
large group not only enhances their ability to negotiate, but makes the claims experience for the
group more stable and predictable due to the larger numbers of covered lives.
9. Q. If my entity joins AzMT, doesn't that mean my entity's premiums may help pay some other
public entity's losses?
A. Exactly! When it comes to health claims, every entity has its turn "at bat" as far as bad years are
concerned. One year, your dollars may help another entity. The next year, their dollars may be
helping yours. Coincidentally, if your entity is purchasing employee benefits from an insurance
company today, aren't your claims being treated the same way? The key difference is that
pooling offers your entity the opportunity to set policy rather than simply being along for the ride
where benefit costs are concerned.
10. Q. If we do decide to join, how long is the membership period?
A. Membership terms are set by the Board of Trustees, which is itself comprised of the entities
having membership in the pool. Generally speaking, multi-year memberships, in this case a
minimum of three years, are required. Why three years? Because the employee benefit trust
should be comprised of entities that are looking for a long term solution to employee benefits
issues and not a short term fix for those that have a bad year and need a place to hide their large
claims. An approach of the latter type would only serve to seriously undermine the operation of
the program from the outset.

11. Q. Who controls the Trust?
12.

14.
15.
16.
A. ARS § 11-952.01 is very clear that any such pool be governed by a Board of Trustees consisting
of the employees of the entities comprising its membership. Erin P. Collins & Associates, Inc. is
the Administrator of the Trust. Claims administration, utilization review, provider networks,
program actuarial, audit and legal are services which are contracted out to private firms, under
the supervision of the Trustees.
Q. Is there a certain time of year that our entity can join AzMT?
A. No. Entities may apply for membership at any time throughout the year, however the minimum
three year membership period will always end as of June 30.
Q. If our entity joins in March when is our renewal date?
A. Regardless of when an entity joins AzMT the renewal date for all coverage's is July I It.
Q. Is there any buy -in to join the Trust?
A. No. The cash position of the Trust is determined on a monthly basis. New entities do not receive
any stake in the cash position prior to the date they join, therefore no buy -in is required.
Q. The Trust offers EPO, 2 PPO and a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP), does our entity
have to choose one?
A. No. Your entity has the freedom to choose any combination or all of the medical plans.
Q. What does the Trust's wellness program include?
A. The program has integrated preventive services into the medical benefit plan by covering those
services that are required under Health Care Reform. In addition, AzMT goes beyond this and
covers an additional $500 in wellness services each calendar year at 100%. Where a large
enough employee population exists, the program offers on-site medical screenings such as health
risk assessments to include cholesterol, diabetes and blood pressure testing, heart screenings, skin
cancer screenings, colorectal cancer screenings, prostate and testicular cancer screenings,
mammograms, and flu/pneumonia shots just to name a few.

17. Q. What does the membership underwriting process entail?
A. Each entity interested in AzMT membership must provide a current census of employees, copies
of their current benefit schedules and complete an AzMT Underwriting Data form. This
information will be reviewed by AzMT's actuary, administrator and the insurance carriers
contracted with the Trust (stop-loss/reinsurance and life) who will make a determination on
whether the entity is a good fit for AzMT. These recommendations are taken to Trustees for final
membership determination. Only Trustees can offer AzMT membership. Once all the
underwriting documents have been received, this process takes approximately 4 weeks to
complete.
Will our entity have a seat on the Board of Trustees?
A. Yes. Currently each entity has the opportunity to appoint a Trustee and an Alternate Trustee to
participate in Trust meetings.
19. Q. How often does the Board of Trustees meet?
A. Trustees are scheduled for quarterly meetings in the metro Phoenix area. Additionally, the Trust
holds an on-site renewal meeting every year in February/March. At the end of this 2 day meeting
we generally have come to consensus on the benefits and premium rates to be offered at the
upcoming plan year to begin July 1.
20. Q. Is the Trust ever audited?
A. Per state statute the Trust is filed with the applicable State of Arizona agencies. The Trust is
subject to Department of Insurance examination every 5 years. Additionally, per statute the Trust
is subject to financial audit every year.
21. Q. What options do I have to differentiate myself from other Trust members?
A. The benefit schedules are the same for all Trust entities, however your entity can decide your
eligibility period for benefits (i.e., first of the month following 30 days), how much Life
insurance you would like to offer (i.e., $10,000, $25,000), and the premium tier structure that
best fits your needs (i.e., 2 -tier [employee and family] or 4 -tier [employee, spouse, child(ren),
and family]).
22. Q. What are the advantages to joining a Trust?
A. We see the advantages as reduced administration expenses, increased spread of risk, improved
financial discipline and the opportunity to direct the future of your benefits program to a greater
degree than what is available in the conventional insurance market.
23. Q. What are the disadvantages to joining a Trust?
A. We see the disadvantages as the need for consensus with other Trust members.

Legislative Bulletin
Issue 10 - March 18, 2016
Legislative Overview
Today is the 68th day of session. Most committees had lengthy agendas and floor sessions were also packed. This was
the last week for all committees except for Appropriations to hear bills. Other committees may hear presentations or
executive nominations in the weeks to come.
To date Governor Ducey has signed 46 bills.
Penalizing Cities
SB1487, state law; local violations; penalties, withholds shared revenue from cities and towns that are found by the
Attorney General to have violated state law. Governor Ducey signed the bill at approximately 3 p.m. on Thursday
after it passed out of the House on Wednesday by a 32-28 vote. The League and several Mayors had asked for a veto.
The League has been strongly opposed to the bill as an attack on local authority and a bypassing of the constitutional
protections of due process.
Census
HB2483, municipal population estimates; use, sponsored by Representative Justin Olson (R - Mesa) passed the Senate
Appropriations Committee this week by a unanimous vote. It allows for cities and towns to use the U.S. Census
Bureau's population estimates on a yearly basis to keep up with changes in growth. This measure was the result of
cities and towns working together to reach a successful resolution. The bill now goes to the Rules Committee.
Online Homesharing
SB1350, online homesharing administration; definitions, allows for a city, town, or other taxing jurisdiction to levy a
transaction privilege, sales, use or similar tax/fee on the business of operating a online lodging marketplace such as
Airbnb. The bill also prohibits municipalities from banning this type of short-term housing rental; it is sponsored by
Senator Debbie Lesko (R - Peoria). The League is continuing to engage in negotiations with the proponents in order to
reach a reasonable compromise on these issues, therefore the League is officially neutral. The bill passed the House
Ways and Means Committee by a vote of 8-1, and now goes to the Rules Committee.
Regulation Restrictions
The Senate Government Committee passed HB2517, businesses; professions; regulation restrictions, by a 4-3 vote.
This bill is sponsored by Rep. Warren Peterson (R - Gilbert). It would limit municipalities, counties and state agencies
from adopting any regulation that applies to business except for purposes of public health, safety and welfare.
Additionally, these governmental entities would have to review all of their existing regulations and eliminate or
modify any that do not meet this restriction and make a report to the legislature. The bill also establishes a private
right of action, allowing any person to sue the municipality if they believed they were not in compliance. The League
opposed this bill. It will now go to the Rules Committee.
Drones
S131449, unmanned aircraft; prohibited operations, passed the House Judiciary Committee this week by a vote of 6-0.
Sponsored by Senator John Kavanagh (R - Fountain Hills), the bill prescribes various regulations associated with
unmanned aircraft, or drones. The Judiciary Chair, Representative Eddie Farnsworth, successfully sponsored a
committee amendment designed to streamline the bill and added that he would work with stakeholders to further
refine the measure. The League opposes the bill as it is preemptive. It now goes to the Rules Committee.
Recovery Home Regulation
H132107, substance abuse recovery homes, passed the Senate Health and Human Services Committee by a unanimous
vote. Rep. Noel Campbell (R - Prescott) the sponsor of the bill, is seeking to provide some regulation on the
substance abuse recovery home industry. There was a strike everything amendment in the Health Committee to
further develop the bill. It now goes to the Rules Committee.
Community Facilities Districts
H132568; community facilities districts; formation; governance, sponsored by Speaker of the House David Gowan (R -
Sierra Vista) states that a community facilities district may be formed without the approval of the local jurisdiction if
the land involved is 600 acres or more, and all the landowners sign the formation petition. It also specifies that the
governing board will be made up of five members -two appointed by the local government, two appointed by the
landowners and one from a list the landowners will supply to the local government. As amended in the Senate
Government Committee, it provides indemnification for the local government, but does not allow for the land to be
held for security, nor does it allow for the landowners' financial ability for repayment to be revealed. The League
opposes the measure. HB2568 passed the Senate Government Committee by a vote of 5-1, and now proceeds to the
Rules Committee.

Issue 11 - March 25, 2016
Legislative Overview
Today is the 75th day of session. Both Appropriations Committees heard bills this week, and a few of the other
committees had executive nominations or presentations. Floor calendars were moderately full in the Senate and
very robust in the House.
To date 88 bills have passed, with 73 signed, and none vetoed.
Pawn Shops
HB2690; pawnbroker licensure; DPS passed the Senate Appropriations Committee this week by a vote of 5-3. The bill
would transfer the licensing and oversight of pawn shops from counties and municipalities to the Department of
Public Safety. The League opposed the measure as the current system is highly successful at finding stolen property,
and local governments have much more familiarity with establishments in their own communities. The counties also
opposed the bill, and no one signed in supporting the measure. The measure now goes to the Senate Rules
Committee.
PTSD
On Tuesday HB2350; post-traumatic stress disorder; occupational disease unanimously passed the Senate
Appropriations Committee. The bill, a product of stakeholder negotiations, was amended from Post -Traumatic Stress
Disorder as a presumptive disease to offering a public safety worker up to 12 therapy sessions if he or she was
involved with a traumatic workplace incident. These sessions are paid for by the employer. The measure now goes to
the Senate Rules Committee.

Issue 12 - April 1, 2016
Legislative Overview
Today is the 82nd day of session. Almost all activity was on the floor this week, as only a few committees heard
executive nominations or had presentations. Both chambers are clearing as many bills as possible and transferring
them back to the house of origin or to the governor's office. This pattern is usually a portent to the budget
deliberation process.
To date 106 bills have passed, with 89 signed, and one vetoed, the cursive writing mandate.
Drones
SB1449, prohibited operations; unmanned aircraft passed the House by a vote of 57-0 this week. Sponsored by Senator
John Kavanagh (R - Fountain Hills) the bill sets forth various regulations on unmanned aircraft, or "drones." The bill
was amended in House Judiciary by the chair of that committee, Representative Eddie Farnsworth (R- Gilbert) to
remove many of the delineations of federal and state law and simply refer to current statute. There was also a floor
amendment in the House that clarified the ability of cities and towns to regulate drones in parks or preserves. The
measure does have penalties for inappropriate use of drones. The bill now returns to the Senate where the sponsor
is expected to concur with the House changes, and then the bill will go to a Final Read in the Senate.

SB1350, online homesharing administration; definitions, allows for a city, town, or other taxing jurisdiction to levy a
transaction privilege, sales, use or similar tax/fee on the business of operating a online lodging marketplace such as
Airbnb. The bill also prohibits municipalities from banning this type of short-term housing rental; it is sponsored by
Senator Debbie Lesko (R - Peoria). The League is continuing to engage in negotiations with the proponents in order to
reach a reasonable compromise on these issues, therefore the League is officially neutral. The League has made
significant progress toward ensuring cities and towns will still have the tools necessary to control undesirable
activities such as noise and nuisance violations, and we are rapidly approaching an equitable tax treatment solution.
The sponsor continues to hold the bill off the Rules committee agenda as work continues on the final language.
