RECITALS
A. After a competitive procurement process, Mohave Educational Services

as amended by that Extension of Contract dated February 3, 2016, and that letter agreement
dated September 9, 2015 (collectively, the “Mohave Contract”), for the Contractor to provide

B. The Town is permitted, pursuant to Section 3-3-27 of the Town Code, to make
purchases under the Mohave Contract, at its discretion and with the agreement of the awarded
Contractor, and the Mohave Contract permits its cooperative use by other public entities,
including the Town.

Town may, at its discretion and with the agreement of the Contractor, elect to waive this
requirement and renew this Agreement. The Initial Term and any Renewal Term are collectively
referred to herein as the “Term.” Upon renewal, the terms and conditions of this Agreement

and regulations that relate to their employees and their compliance with the E-verify

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.

however, that the Town may, at its discretion and with the agreement of the Contractor, elect to
waive this requirement and renew this Agreement. The Initial Term and any Renewal Term(s)

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.
Should the Town elect not to appropriate and budget funds to pay its Agreement obligations, this
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

requirements and obligations in the performance of this Agreement.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt
January 30, 1882 – April 12, 1945
Franklin Roosevelt spent most of his life in politics, where he tried to make life better for the
average person. Although he was stricken with polio in 1921 at the age of 39, and confined to a
wheelchair, he never gave up hope for continuing his political career.
After serving as Governor of New York, Roosevelt was elected the 32nd President of the United
States in 1932. He was the only President in American history elected to four consecutive terms.
FDR, as many called him, would lead our nation through two of the greatest crises in its history, the
Great Depression and World War Il.
In his first inaugural address on March 4, 1933, he famously declared, "The only thing we have to
fear is fear itself."
During the Great Depression his administration created the New Deal reform programs with many
acronym agencies, such as the Civilian Conservation Corp (CCC), Farm Security Administration (FSA),
Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and Works Progress Administration (WPA). On August 14, 1935,
he signed the Social Security Act.
During his re-nomination speech in Philadelphia on June 27, 1936, he stated, "This generation of
Americans has a rendezvous with destiny."
Roosevelt's thirty fireside chats broadcast on radio between 1933 and 1944 were legendary,
creating comfort for millions of Americans. In 1940 he stated, "We must be the great arsenal of
democracy."
Roosevelt also used a "lend-lease" policy to arm our allies during World War II.
After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, he gave his "a date which will live
in infamy" speech to Congress, declaring war on Japan.
FDR wrote his last speech for a radio broadcast the night before he died. In it, he stated that, "If
civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships, the ability of all
peoples, of all kinds, to live together and work together, in the same world, at peace."
Franklin Delano Roosevelt died on Thursday April 12, 1945, in Warm Springs, Georgia.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this grant administration policy is to establish uniform policies and procedures
throughout the Town of Fountain Hills (the “Town”) to be used when applying for, accepting and
administering federal, state, county, private foundation and corporate grants, sponsorships and
donations. This document describes the grant administration process and identifies the roles and
responsibilities of the Department Directors, Risk Management, Information Technology (“IT”),
Finance and the Grant Project Manager. Definitions of certain terms can be found in Section III.
Although this policy identifies certain departments and employees that are routinely involved in
the administration of grants, this policy applies to all department employees who are
programmatically or fiscally responsible for developing, implementing, administering, or
reporting federal and other grant activity. For several reasons, it is essential for all Town
departments and employees to adhere to the applicable provisions of federal, state and local laws,
regulations, contracts and grant agreements, as well as the grant policies and procedures outlined
in this policy, while administering grant-funded programs. First, noncompliance may result in
Town sanctions and liabilities. Second, incorrect or irreconcilable financial activity and account
balances recorded in the Town’s financial management system may adversely affect the integrity
of Town financial reports and financial information reported to the grantor and the public. Third,
it is necessary to help ensure that the Town is receiving the greatest possible economic benefit
from the programs it administers.
This policy is divided into three sections: Section I outlines the Town’s purpose for submitting
grants and the Town’s overall fiduciary and administrative responsibilities including matching
funds; Section II highlights the roles and responsibilities for each individual involved in
administering grants; Section III contains a glossary of the relevant terms and resources.
Appendices of internal forms and resources follow the glossary.
Due to the complexity of grants, other documents should be used in tandem with this policy. In
most instances, the grantor will provide specific guidance; in some occasions you will need to
consult with other members of the management team and/or the Finance Division to research
particular information.
Grant trainings associated with writing and monitoring grants are optional but highly
recommended.

2253174.6
SECTION I: PURPOSE AND TOWN RESPONSIBILITIES
1.1 Purpose for Submitting Grants
A grant is a contribution or a gift of cash or other assets to be used or expended for a specified
purpose, activity, project or facility. Grant agreements usually specify the maximum amount of
funding, the scope of work to be done, the grant period (e.g. single or multi-year), and any
special conditions applicable to the program. The Town’s purpose for the use of federal, state,
county, private foundation and/or corporate grants (including sponsorships and donations) is to
maximize external financial resources while protecting the integrity of the Town’s operational
budget and long-term financial conditions. Therefore, all Town employees will only apply for
grants that further Town Council’s goals and objectives, and support projects and programs that
are consistent with the mission and priorities of the Town and its departments. To ensure that this
occurs, all departments are required to submit a Grant Priority Form along with their annual
budget requests (Appendix A). (Note: This process typically should take place during the
Town’s budget process but can occur at any time during the year.) Department Directors are also
responsible for approving all grants prior to submission to the Finance Division for Town
Manager’s signature or electronic submission to the funding agency.
1.2 Fiduciary Responsibilities
A. Internal Controls.
When any employee of the Town of Fountain Hills applies for or accepts a grant, Town
management assumes the responsibility for administering the grant and the financial assistance in
accordance with the provisions of all applicable laws, regulations, contracts and grant
agreements. In order to ensure that the Town fulfills its fiduciary and administrative
responsibility, the Town management has established a system of internal controls designed to
provide reasonable assurances regarding the achievement of Town-wide and program-level
objectives in the following categories:
1. Effectiveness and efficiency of operations
2. Reliability of financial and programmatic reporting
3. Town compliance with applicable laws, regulations contracts, grant agreements
and other compliance requirements
4. Transactions are properly accounted for and recorded
3
2253174.6
5. Transactions are executed in compliance with all laws, regulations and provisions
of contracts and grant agreements that could have a material effect on federal and
other programs
6. Funds, property and other assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized
use or disposition
To enhance cash management practices, it is the Town’s preference to receive funding on a cost
reimbursement basis, unless specifically prohibited by the grantor. This basis minimizes the
Town’s responsibility with respect to monitoring and administering interest earnings from grants.
All requests for reimbursement shall be coordinated with the Finance Division. The Town’s
preferred method of reimbursement is electronic funds transfers (“EFT”). However if EFT is not
available, reimbursement checks shall be made payable to the Town of Fountain Hills and mailed
to:
Town of Fountain Hills
c/o Finance Division
16705 E. Avenue of the Fountains
Fountain Hills, Arizona 85268
In order to minimize foregone interest and to improve the Town’s cash flow, the Grant Project
Managers and/or Finance Division shall draw down grant funding at least monthly, when
applicable. The Finance Division shall review grant revenues and expenditures at least quarterly
to verify that drawdowns are performed timely.
B. Authority and Sources of Guidance
This policy supplements the Town’s accounting procedures and serves as the general framework
for departments to follow when applying for grants, negotiating the terms and conditions of grant
agreements and administering grants. The policy is intended to provide consistent guidelines for
grant administration to ensure optimum financial and administrative arrangements for the Town.
In addition, the following is a list of federal circulars, publications, and regulations that provide
grant management guidance. Each of these publications is available on the Internet and a brief
description of the guidance can be found in the Appendix B of this policy.
1. OMB Uniform Guidance: Cost Principles, Audit, and Administrative
Requirements for Federal Awards as codified in 2 CFR Part 200.
2. Codification of Governmentwide Grants Requirements by Department.

3. Federal OMB Circular A-87, Cost Principles for State, Local, and Indian Tribal
Governments (as codified in 2 CFR Part 200).
4. Federal OMB Circular A-110, Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants
and Agreements with Institution of Higher Education, Hospitals, and Other Non-
Profit Organizations (as codified in 2 CFR Part 200).
5. Federal OMB Circular A-122, Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations (as
codified in 2 CFR Part 200).
6. Federal OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and
Organizations (as codified in 29 CFR Part 99).

8. Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA). https://www.cfda.gov/
9. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).
https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/browse/collectionCfr.action?collectionCode=CFR
C. Matching Funds
The Town Council established a Grant Fund (special revenue fund, fund 400) to account for
unanticipated grant application opportunities. Requests for matching funds (typically General
Fund money) required as a condition of the grant application should be sent to the Finance
Division for approval of availability prior to the decision to apply is made and as soon as the
matching estimate is known. No project will be eligible for matching funds without approval
from the Town Manager and, when necessary, the Town Council.
If the grant project is assigned to the Grant Fund for Finance Division tracking purposes,
matching funds required for future years on an annually renewable grant (e.g. COPS Universal
Hiring) must be estimated and budgeted by the initiating department during the annual budgeting
process. For example, there are federal, state and county grant programs that typically issue
requests for proposals every year. The need for matching funds for these predictable
opportunities must be estimated and budgeted by the department.
In some cases, future grant opportunities can be predicted because enabling legislation has been
passed. Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships, Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Local
5
2253174.6
Transportation Assistance Fund (LTAF) and Homeland Security are examples of enabling
legislation that preceded the implementation of these grant programs. Whenever possible,
departments should plan for these types of opportunities to ensure that budget appropriation
authority is adequate and potential matching funds are addressed during the annual budgeting
process.
If the department submits a supplemental request for matching funds for the above types of grant
opportunities, the department should notify the Finance Division for assistance. If the request is
approved, budget authorization for the supplemental amount will be placed in the Grant Fund and
will be designated for the respective departments.
1.3 Administrative Responsibilities
Grant funding should be considered primarily for one-time or time-limited projects (such as
capital improvements) that do not have a significant long-term effect on the ongoing operating
budget. Grants also may be appropriate start-up funding mechanisms for priority projects already
identified in a department’s Grant Priority Form. Grants should not be used as the primary
financing mechanism to create new ongoing programs or services or to add unbudgeted positions
unless specifically approved by the Town Manager.
Any grant application that requires the guaranteed continuation of grant-funded positions or
graduated match resulting in full financial responsibility subsequent to termination of the grant,
or that directly increases the Town’s ongoing operating cost, must be reviewed by the Town
Manager and the Finance Division. The Town Manager, or Town Council (if the grant award
meets or exceeds $30,000), shall have the final say on grant activities. In some instances, the
Town Manager may request Town Council input regarding a grant application submittal. If a
Town Council meeting is needed, but cannot be scheduled prior to a crucial grant application
deadline, the Town Manager may authorize the department to apply for the grant so that it does
not miss the crucial deadline. However, the department must withdraw the grant application if the
Town Council later decides not to submit the grant.
The Town may cosponsor, serve as fiscal agent, or join with multiple sponsored community-
based consortia or other jurisdictions when the Town Council determines it will benefit Town
residents. The Town shall not act solely as fiscal agent for non-profit entities without
consultation with the Finance Division and specific direction and approval from the Town
Manager after his consultation with the Town Attorney.
6
2253174.6
A. Developing Appropriate Grant Projects
Grant writing and grant management take a considerable investment of time and resources. When
considering whether to apply for a particular grant, the initiating department must consider the
following:
1. Will the grant help the Town attain an objective and secure infrastructure
investments that fit into the Town’s and the department’s priorities?
2. Is the grant-supported service a high priority for the Town Council, the
department and the public as evidenced by planning documents, inclusion in the
Capital Improvement Plan (“CIP”), local resources commitment, or other
documentation that identifies the need and service levels?
3. Can other community agencies be identified that provide or could provide the
same or similar services, and can it be articulated why the Town is a more
efficient and cost-effective provider?
4. Can this grant obtain sufficient budget appropriations and, if matching funds are
required, will that match come from the department’s operating budget, authorized
CIP funding or another budget source?
5. If administrative and indirect costs, as well as department resources (Finance,
Risk Management, etc.) are involved, have these departments/divisions been
consulted and are the costs eligible for grant reimbursement?
6. What is the likely funding source for continuing the project/program or services,
or is there a plan for terminating the grant-supported activities?
7. Is the benefit derived from the grant sufficient to justify the cost involved in
administering the grant, or will the grant leverage other funding sources and/or
foster more creative public-private partnership arrangements?
8. Is this item from a sole source vendor or can other companies supply a
competitive price?
9. Does the program have special property, liability or other insurance requirements?
If so, has the incremental cost of such requirements been factored into the overall
cost-benefit analysis?
7
2253174.6
10. Can the program be housed within existing space? If not, are requirements for
additional or renovated space and equipment consistent with the Town’s plans and
available funding?
11. Will the program require additional staff? If so, is the staffing increase in
conformity with the Town’s plans, budget and available monies?
12. Is the proposed program budget sufficiently detailed (i.e., have all the direct and
indirect costs such as salaries, ERE (employee-related expenses), supplies and
materials, equipment, travel, computers, consultants, allocated administrative and
internal service costs been identified and accounted for)?
13. If the grant is a donation, is it coming from an agency that has already donated to
another town? If so, should you wait to request a donation or should you allow
another department to apply from this source?
Please see the Grant Check List (Appendix D) for more details.
B. Grant Application Process
The Town has a methodology to help track grants and ensure that programs are managed and
meet program compliance. The grant application process consists of 12 steps that require the
involvement of various staff members. The following steps are a general outline of the process,
with individual responsibilities relating to the process set forth in Section II.
1. Finding Grant Opportunities. The Department Directors and/or staff seek grant
opportunities for the Town. This process is done through various search engines to
which the Town has access. Town staff also has access to grant opportunities as
they often become available in their specific lines of work. Prior to submitting the
grant application, the applicant is required to obtain confirmation of the
availability of any matching funds from the Finance Division as well as Town
Manager approval (and Town Council approval if the grant award meets or
exceeds $30,000).
2. Logging the Grant. Once an opportunity has been found, the applicant will notify
the Finance Division, which will log the grant into an Excel file. During this step,
a grant number will be assigned.
3. Invitation to Pursue Grants. Once the approval is obtained and a grant is logged,
the applicant has permission to pursue the grant.
8
2253174.6
4. Filling in the Form (Appendix A) to Pursue a Grant. The person pursuing the
grant automatically becomes the “Grant Project Manager” for that grant. The
Grant Project Manager fills in information pertaining to the project’s ability to
meet Town Council’s goals and the Town’s ability to meet all maintenance and
reporting requirements and financial obligations.
5. Internal Approvals. Once the form is complete, the Grant Project Manager will
submit it to his/her Department Director. If the Department Director determines
the grant meets the requirements of this policy, he/she will approve it and route it
to Finance, Risk Management, IT and any other necessary departments/divisions
for internal approval.
6. Writing the Grant. The Grant Project Managers should always attempt to fill out
the grant application first. They are the experts on the topic and should provide as
much information as they can about the project for which they are seeking
funding.
7. Legal Review. The Grant Project Manager should prepare and submit to the
Town Attorney a Request for Legal Services according to the legal request
process established by the Town. The Town Attorney will review the grant
application and send it back to the Grant Project Manager with any required
changes. The Grant Project Manager will obtain the Town Manager signature on
the cover letter before submitting the grant application.
8. Town Council Approval. Town Council approval, by Resolution, is required
when (i) the grant requires it, (ii) the grant meets or exceeds $30,000 or (iii) the
grant requires a contractual agreement. In those cases, the Grant Project Manager
will generate an Agenda Action Form and request updates and approval from the
Department Director. The Grant Project Manager, in accordance with Town
Council agenda packet deadlines, will take the item to the next available Town
Council meeting. The Grant Project Manager also will ensure that all awarded
grant contracts, regardless of the amount, are approved by the Town Attorney.
The Grant Project Manager must follow all other procurement and grant contract
requirements. These requirements include a staff report for bids on grant-funded
equipment and carrying over funding and appropriations to the next fiscal year
when necessary.
9. Grant Approval Notification. The Grant Project Manager shall be responsible
for tracking all awarded and denied grants. Once a letter for approval has been
received, the Grant Project Manager will submit all of the necessary documents to
the Finance Division who will enter the data into the grant management system.
9
2253174.6
10. Implementation of the Grant. It is the responsibility of the Grant Project
Manager to implement the grant in accordance with the contract and all applicable
laws and regulations. During this process, the Grant Project Manager should work
with the Finance Division and the granting agency. The Grant Project Manager
will be responsible for ensuring that all compliance items are met. The Grant
Project Manager should be aware of federal laws and regulations as they relate to
the grant project and should seek legal advice from the Town Attorney if the
Town’s obligations are unclear.
11. Reporting Documents. All reports are to be completed by the Grant Project
Manager on time and in conjunction with the Finance Division (when necessary).
Copies of reports shall be retained by the Grant Project Manager and Finance
Division and retained for the time period specified in the current Town and/or
State of Arizona (“State”) approved record retention schedules or as indicated
within the grant contract (whichever is longer).
12. Closing the Grant. Grants will be closed only when a letter of completion or
compliance has been obtained from the grantor. All grant activity should remain
open until the funding has been fully spent down. Grant Project Managers should
not close any grants without the written consent from the Finance Division. This
process will help safeguard against any programmatic and/or financial
discrepancies. Once the grant is closed, the Finance Division will send a hardcopy
of all the grant activity to the Grant Project Manager to be retained until the date
at which the records can be destroyed according to the current Town and/or State
approved record retention schedules or as indicated within the grant contract
(whichever is longer).
10
2253174.6
SECTION II: INDIVIDUAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
In an effort to ensure that all grants are administered in a consistent manner, the following
policies have been designed to set forth the role of each staff member that is involved with the
grant projects.
2.1 Town Attorney
The Town Attorney shall approve all contracts, grant agreements, memoranda of understanding,
intergovernmental agreements and any other binding documents prior to signature from the Town
Manager or Mayor. The legal request process established by the Town is to be followed.
2.2 Responsible Department
The “Responsible Department” is the department of the Grant Project Manager. The Responsible
Department shall maintain all hardcopies of grant activities and shall maintain grant information
for the time period specified in the current Town and/or State approved record retention
schedules or as indicated within the grant contract (whichever is longer).
2.3 Department Director
A. Department Directors are responsible for submitting a Grant Priority Form with their
budget requests each year, if applicable, or as promptly as possible if their requests do not
coincide with the timing of budget requests. The forms shall outline all of the programs
and projects that the Directors would like to pursue during the fiscal year. Department
Directors shall not approve any grant requests not included in the Grant Priority Form
unless they have received the Town Manager’s approval.
B. Directors should refer to the Grant Check List (Appendix D) before approving a grant.
C. Department Directors are responsible for reviewing and approving grant requests that
come from their department’s staff members. This review includes, but is not limited to,
the grant requirements, implementation commitments and reporting requirements.
Directors should not approve any grants that they do not have the financial and personnel
resources to successfully administer.
D. Department Directors shall approve or deny a grant request within three Town business
days. If the Director is not available to approve a grant, he/she should assign an alternate
staff person or his/her supervisor to conduct this duty.
11
2253174.6
E. The Department Director shall forward any approved grant request to Finance, Risk
Management, IT and any other necessary departments/divisions, as appropriate, for
internal approval. If the grant request is not universally approved by the other
departments/divisions, the Department Director, Finance Division and the other
approving entity shall attempt to arrive at a resolution. If unsuccessful, the Department
Director shall take his/her concerns to the Town Manager.
F. Department Directors are responsible for assigning responsible staff members to serve as
Grant Project Managers to oversee grants. If a Grant Project Manager leaves his/her
employment with the Town, then the duty of the Grant Project Manager will be
reassigned to another staff member. The transition of the Grant Project Manager should
be conducted through written correspondence that includes the Town Manager and the
Finance Division.
G. Department Directors will work with the Finance Division when there are issues with the
Grant Project Manager’s inability to successfully implement grant activities.
2.4 Grant Project Manager
A. Obligations Prior to Grant Submittal.
1. The Grant Project Manager is encouraged to attend at least one grant training
program associated with writing and monitoring grants and one Finance Division
meeting prior to submitting a grant application.
2. Grant Project Managers should seek out grant opportunities in their lines of work.
3. The Grant Project Manager shall not request to apply for a grant until he/she has
reviewed the request for proposal thoroughly and considered the merits of the
project as it relates to the Town’s objections and reviewed the requirements
related to the potential grant request.
4. The Grant Project Manager shall work with his/her supervisor and/or Department
Director by having an informal conversation about the grant prior to submitting a
request to pursue a grant.
5. Once the Grant Project Manager decides to apply for a grant, he/she shall notify
the Finance Division and complete a Grant Project Profile Worksheet as

Accounts Payable Check Processing: Accounts Payable processes vendor payments and
prepares checks for signature. The general ledger is automatically updated by the Accounts
Payable module of the general ledger accounting system at the time of entry. Accounts Payable
checks are signed electronically. Accounts Payable sends the checks to the vendor. The
electronic record copy of each purchase order is maintained in the Accounts Payable system.
Advanced Funding: A funding technique where program monies are received in advance of
expenditures. Common forms of advance funding include checks and electronic fund transfers.
Auditee: Any nonfederal entity that expends federal awards which must be audited under the
Single Audit Act, as amended.
Auditor: A public accountant or a federal, state or local government audit organization that
meets the general standards specified in generally accepted government auditing standards
(GAGAS).
Audit Finding: Deficiencies the auditor is required to report in the Schedule of Findings and
Questioned Costs.
Block Grant: Grants which combine funding for a broad purpose such as community
development or energy efficiency. Community Development Block Grants are one of the most
famous block grants.
Categorical Grants: Grants awarded for a specific, limited purpose such as a library grant or a
construction grant.
Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number: The number assigned to a federal
program in the CFDA. If a grant award includes federal funds, then the CFDA number for those
funds must be determined for proper disclosure on the federal Schedule of Expenditures of
Federal Awards. Visit: https://www.cfda.gov/
Commingling of Funds: The Town is prohibited from combining its funds with grant/project
awards of federal or other agencies. Each award must be accounted for separately. The Town is
also prohibited from combining funds on either a program-by-program basis or a project-by-
project basis. Funds specifically budgeted and/or received for one program or project may not be
used to support another. The Town’s financial management system and supporting records must
demonstrate that such funds were not commingled.
19
2253174.6
Common Rule: On March 12, 1987, the President directed the federal grant making agencies to
issue a grants management common rule to adopt government wide terms and conditions for
grants to states and local governments. In 1988, OMB revised Circular A-102 to include
guidance to federal agencies on matters not covered by the grants management common rule.
The attachments to Circular A-102 were replaced by the grants management common rule. OMB
maintains a chart which includes the locations of federal agency codifications of the grants
management common rule. It is important for a grantee to review the regulations of their federal
awarding agency. Visit: http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/grants_chart/
Competitive Bidding Proposal: Purchases of $30,000 or more require a competitive bidding
procedure. To begin this process, departmental personnel shall write a scope of work and/or
specifications and provide to Procurement for preparation of the Request for Proposals/Request
for Statements of Qualifications and/or Invitation for Bids, as applicable. Procurement sends
these documents to the Town Attorney for the final solicitation documentation through the legal
request process established by the Town.
The bids are then given to the appropriate department for review. Proposals and Statement of
Qualifications go through an alternative process. Upon selection of the successful vendor, the
bid/proposal/statements of qualifications are provided to the Town Clerk’s Office together with a
Contract Submittal Form. The contract documents are provided to and prepared by the Town
Attorney for submittal to the Town Council for approval. The Town Clerk’s Office processes and
distributes the executed contract documents. The Finance Division maintains the electronic
contract documents. Once approved by the Town Council, department personnel issue the
requisition for purchase order. Procurement issues the purchase order.
Cooperative Agreement: Similar to grants except that the awarding agency is usually
substantially involved in the activity funding by the program.
Cost Reimbursement: A funding technique where the Town must submit periodic claims or
draws down funding under letter(s) of credit for allowable program expenditures already
incurred. The awarding agency reimburses the Town for eligible expenditures up to the
maximum amount specified in the grant agreement.

federally-recognized Indian Tribal governments. (Please be aware that the federal awarding
agency’s Implementing Rules may have administrative requirements that differ from the Common
Rule requirements. Therefore, it is imperative that the Grant Project Manager review the federal
agency’s Implementing Rules to ensure that the Town is in compliance with the applicable
administrative requirements. The Implementing Rules are outlined in the applicable Code of
Federal Regulations.)
Federal OMB Circular A-110, Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and
Agreements with Institutions of Higher Education, Hospitals, and Other Non-Profit
Organizations (as codified in 2 CFR Part 200): This circular sets forth standards for obtaining

the requirements of the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996, as amended, and 1997 revisions
to OMB Circular A-133, which provided for the issuance of a Compliance Supplement to assist
auditors in performing the required audits. (While the Supplement is intended to provide a tool to
both federal grantor agencies and auditors in setting forth the important provisions of federal
assistance programs, it also provides guidance to recipients of federal assisted programs. It
includes program objectives, procedures, and compliance requirements.) Visit:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133_compliance_supplement_2015

application process to the tracking of proceeds and expenditures after the grant is awarded and
22
2253174.6
accepted. The system might consist of an integrated solution or a combination of an Excel file
for the initial stage and MUNIS for tracking after the grant award.
Grant Number: At least one grant number must be assigned to uniquely identify and track each
grant award except for federal grants. All federal grants must be identified and tracked using two
external grant numbers: (1) CFDA number assigned by the federal awarding agency and (2)
grant/contract/IGA number assigned by the grantor or pass-through agency. The Town also uses
an internal numbering system for grants.
Grant Priority Form: An internal form that accompanies each department’s budget request at
the beginning of each fiscal year or whenever a grant becomes available. Departments must
follow their priority list when considering the submittal of grants.
Grant Project Manager: The person managing the grant and responsible for compliance with
the terms of the applicable grant including the appropriate records retention.
Grants: A grant is a contribution or gift of cash or other assets to be used or expended for a
specified purpose, activity, project or facility. Grant agreements usually specify the maximum
amount of funding, the scope of work to be done, the grant period (e.g., single or multi-year) and
any special conditions applicable to the program.
Indirect Costs: Those costs incurred for a common or Town-wide objective that benefits more
than one grant program or project. Such costs are not readily assignable to the cost objective
specifically benefited.
In-Kind Contributions: Contributions in the form of goods and/or services rather than in cash.
Invoice Process: Original invoices are sent directly to Accounts Payable. Copies of invoices are
sent to the respective department for approval of payment. The payment request is accomplished
based on the purchase order number that was previously approved by the general ledger
accounting system. Copies of the check register reports are maintained in Accounts Payable and
are submitted for approval to the Finance Director, Town Manager, Town Clerk and Mayor.
Lead Agency: The agency that will be responsible for assuring that compliance of grant
requirements when multiple agencies are involved in a grant.
MUNIS: The Town-wide financial management and accounting software system administered
by the Finance Division. The MUNIS general ledger and related records represent the Town’s
official financial records and, therefore, all program financial activity and related account
balances must be recorded in the general ledger. (If the Grant Project Manager maintains
program financial activity and account balances information outside of MUNIS, the Grant
Project Manager must ensure that the supplemental records reconcile to MUNIS.)
23
2253174.6
One-time Grants: Funding from a grantor agency that is provided for a limited duration for a
specified project and/or program.
Ongoing Grants: The funding from a grantor agency which is expected to be provided year after
year for a specified program or project.

of the grant shall be maintained and retained according to the State’s records retention schedules.
All financial records will be housed in the Finance Division.
Shared Revenues: Revenues levied by another governmental entity and shared with the Town.
They are generally distributed on a predetermined basis, often in proportion of the amount
collected from within the state or county.
Signature of Authority: The Town Manager is the signature authority for all grant submittals
and expenditures.
Single Audit Act of 1984 and Amendments of 1996: Requires governmental entities that spend
over $300,000 a year in federal awards to prepare a Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards
(SEFA), which is audited annually. (OMB Circular A-l33 revised this threshold to $750,000
beginning in 2015.) This schedule is the responsibility of the Town Finance Division. OMB
Circular A-133 incorporates the requirements of the Single Audit Act. Copies of the Town’s
most recent Single Audit Reporting Package are available upon request from the Finance
Division.
The Single Audit Act was enacted to ensure the accurate accounting of federal grant funds are in
compliance with program standards. Material noncompliance findings cited in the Town’s Single
Audit Reporting Package, including failure to accurately report federal expenditures on the
24
2253174.6
Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards, could result in loss of grant funding. Grantors are
required to monitor their sub-recipient’s single audit findings to help ensure that findings are
corrected. The Finance Division and the department administering the grant ensures that grant
activity is accurately reported on both the grantor financial reports filed with the grantor agencies
and the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards prepared by the Finance Division for the
Town’s Single Audit Reporting Package.
Supplanting: Under federal and state requirements, the Town may use federal or state funds to
supplement and/or increase the level of funds associated with a project. A Town may not use
federal or state funds to offset the cost of a project that has funding appropriation within the
Town’s budget. If a federal or state grant has supplanting requirements, the Town shall not
deliberately use the federal/state funds to reduce federal, state or local funds already appropriated
for the same purpose. If for some reason, a reduction in the program level of effort for funding
occurs, the Town may be required to provide documentation that the reduction did not occur as a
result of supplanting.
Town Council Action: The process by which Town Council members review projects to
determine if they will approve or deny the Town’s involvement. All grants that require a
Resolution (as noted in the application/approval package) shall go to Town Council. All grants
that are equal to or in excess of $30,000 also are required to have Town Council action.

RESOLUTION 2016-18
[Agreement]
See following pages.
2736543.1
MODIFICATION TO INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
THE STATE OF ARIZONA AND CITY/TOWN
WHEREAS, The Arizona Department of Revenue, hereinafter referred to as Department
of Revenue and City/Town of Fountain Hills, hereinafter referred to as City/Town, have entered
into an Intergovernmental Agreement regarding the administration of taxes imposed by the State
or City/Town dated ________________, hereinafter referred to as the IGA, and
WHEREAS, the Department of Revenue and the City/Town intend to continue with the
IGA for an additional one year term in order to determine whether the general terms of the IGA
meet the parties’ needs, with the exception of the modifications set forth below.
The parties agree to modify the IGA as follows effective July 1, 2016:
1. Add the following new subsection to Section 9, Collection of Municipal Taxes:
9.6 Adjustments to Reported Taxes: If the Department of Revenue determines that
a payment remitted by a taxpayer incorrectly identifies the city or town to which
the payment should be made, the Department of Revenue may temporarily hold
the payment until the distribution of the payment is corrected so that the
appropriate city or town receives the payment.
2. Add the following new subsection to Section 9, Collection of Municipal Taxes:
9.7 Taxpayer Rulings and Uniformity: Recognizing taxpayer written requests for
interpretation of the statutes and/or the Model City Tax Code, as well as guidance
regarding uniform application and interpretation of the statutes and the Model
City Tax Code impact all taxing jurisdictions, and further recognizing
responsibility for such rulings and interpretation of the Model City Tax Code had
previously been the sole domain of the municipalities, the Department shall
include at least two representatives of the municipalities as regular members of
any group established to respond to such taxpayer ruling requests and to issue
such uniform interpretations and guidance promulgated by the Department.
Participation by the two representatives of the municipalities on any such group is
limited to instances when there is an issue raised that solely involves the Model
City Tax Code and/or presents an issue of first impression, including requests for
private taxpayer rulings. The municipal representatives may also be consulted by
the Department on information letters, or when issuing statements of general
guidance. Written requests involving common questions or issues that have
previously been addressed, whether unique to the Model City Tax Code or not,
may be handled in the regular course of Department processes without consulting
the representatives of the municipalities.

3. Amend Section 10, Financing Collection of Taxes as follows:
10. Financing Collection of Taxes.
The costs incurred by the Department in administering this Agreement shall be financed
through the State general fund appropriation to the Department. This provision does not
relieve City/Town of any financial obligation imposed by statute.
4. Amend subsection 28.1 of Section 28, Duration, relating to automatic renewal of the
agreement as follows:
28.1 The term of this Agreement shall be from July 1 through June 30 of each year.
This Agreement shall automatically be renewed for successive one year terms
thereafter unless either party shall terminate this Agreement by notice, in writing,
no later than sixty calendar days prior to the expiration of the term then in effect.
Any agreed upon modifications to the terms and conditions of this agreement
shall be incorporated to be effective during the term identified by the review
committee provided for in section 28.5.
5. Amend subsection 28.5 of Section 28, Duration, relating to annual review of the
agreement as follows:
28.5 During the term of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement
will undergo an annual review to be initiated no later than June 1st of each year.
The review will be performed by a committee made up of equal parts
representatives of the Department and representatives of the municipal taxing
jurisdictions entering into an IGA with the Department for the administration and
collection of Municipal Taxes.

Staff Summary (background):This item on the Town Council's agenda is a proposal to abandon the 20'
Public Utility and Drainage Easement located at the rear property line of the Escondido Heights Condominiums
(a recent condominiumization of Plat 432, Block2, Lot 3)(15075 N.Escondido Drive),as shown in Exhibit "A".
Aduplex condominium is currently under construction on this property.This easement abandonment is needed
so that the property owner can construct a rear masonry fence/wall at their rear property line,as shown on
their permitted building plans (BP2015-274),instead of at the easement line (which would have given them a
very shallow fenced back yard depth)
All of the public utilties have approved of this abandonment.
Town Staff has reviewed the proposed Drainage Easement abandonment.The 100-year floodplain for the
adjacent Caliente Wash is contained within itsTown-owned open space parcel (Plat431, Parcel B),located at
the rear ofthis property.Three other properties along this reach of Caliente Wash (from El Pueblo Drive to
Ivory Drive)have had previous easement abandonments,and most ofthe lots have pre-incorporation masonry
fences constructed at the property line (i.e. precluding using the D.E. width for any maintenance access along
Caliente Wash).

DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
TOWN OF FOUNTAIN HILLS AND
AMERICANA DEVELOPMENT & BUILDING CO., LLC
THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated August 18, 2016, (the
“Effective Date”) is made and entered into by and between the TOWN OF FOUNTAIN HILLS,
an Arizona municipal corporation (the “Town”) and AMERICANA DEVELOPMENT &
BUILDING CO., LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (the “Developer”). The Town and
Developer are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties,” or individually as a
“Party.”
RECITALS
A. Developer has a real estate purchase contract for the acquisition of approximately
12.27 acres of that certain real property located at the northwest corner of Avenue of the
Fountains and La Montana Drive, Fountain Hills, Arizona, as more particularly described on
Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Property”).
B. It is the Developer’s intention to develop the Property as a senior residential,
senior services, retail and office project, including but not limited to senior apartments, assisted
living, memory care, medical rehabilitation, retail shopping areas, restaurants, medical /
professional offices and related uses (the “Project”).
C. The Town desires that the Property be developed as an integral part of the Town
Center area of Fountain Hills. The Town has determined that encouraging the development of
the Property pursuant to this Agreement will result in significant planning, economic and other
public purpose benefits to the Town and its residents by, among other things (i) the construction
of public improvements, (ii) the development of the Property in a manner consistent with the
Town’s General Plan, (iii) an increase in sales tax revenues to the Town arising from or relating
to the development of the Property and (iv) the creation of new jobs and otherwise enhancing the
economic welfare of the residents of the Town.
D. The Parties understand and acknowledge that the ultimate development of the
Project on the Property is a project of such magnitude that the Developer requires assurances
from the Town that the Developer will have the ability to complete the development of the
Project as contemplated by this Agreement. The Parties further understand and acknowledge
that the Town seeks assurances from the Developer that the Developer will complete the
acquisition of the Property and thereafter develop the Project on the Property in accordance with
the land use plan attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference (the
“Preliminary Land Use Plan”) and in accordance with a “Concept Plan” as required by Sections
2.04 and 2.05 of the Town’s Zoning Ordinance (the “Zoning Ordinance”) prepared by the
Developer consistent with the Preliminary Land Use Plan and submitted for approval by the
Town’s Planning and Zoning Commission (the “Commission”) and the Town Council of the
Town of Fountain Hills (the “Town Council”), as hereinafter provided in this Agreement.
2648040.8 2
E. The Parties understand and acknowledge that this Agreement is a “Development
Agreement” within the meaning of and entered into pursuant to the terms of ARIZ. REV. STAT. §
9-500.05, in order to facilitate the proper development of the Property by providing for, among
other things (i) conditions, terms, restrictions and requirements for the Property by the Town and
(ii) other matters related to the development of the Property. The terms of this Agreement shall
constitute covenants running with the Property as more fully described in this Agreement.
AGREEMENT
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing introduction and recitals, the
promises contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which the Parties hereby acknowledge, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Incorporation of Recitals. The foregoing introduction and recitals are true and
correct and incorporated by this reference as if fully set forth herein.
2. Term. The Developer, its successors and assigns, shall have the right to
implement development on the Property in accordance with this Agreement for a period of five
years from the Effective Date, at which time this Agreement shall automatically terminate as to
the Property without the necessity of any notice, agreement or recording by or between the
Parties (the “Term”); provided, however, that provisions of this Agreement that specifically
survive the termination of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, subject only to the
termination provisions herein specifically related thereto; provided further, however, that if
Developer fails to completely fulfill any portion of its obligations as set forth in Section 6 below
by the deadline for performance associated with each such obligation, this Agreement shall
immediately terminate upon expiration of the applicable cure period without further act by the
Town Council. This Agreement shall become effective only upon approval by the Town
Council.
3. Land Use Plans.
3.1 Preliminary Land Use Plan. The Town hereby approves the Preliminary
Land Use Plan attached hereto as Exhibit B. Developer acknowledges and agrees that such
Preliminary Land Use Plan is intended to convey the overall land-use plan for the Project for the
purposes of this Agreement, but it is not a “Concept Plan” as defined in the Zoning Ordinance.
The Preliminary Land Use Plan includes, at a minimum: the layout, height, and percentage mix
of uses for all buildings on the Project site; the locations and number of spaces, loading areas and
basic site circulation of all Project parking areas; and architectural renderings showing general
color pallets and building design. Notwithstanding the Town Council’s Approval of this
Agreement, Developer must also receive approval by the Commission and Town Council of
Concept Plans prepared in accordance with the Concept Plan requirements set forth in the
Zoning Ordinance.
3.2 Concept Plan. The Concept Plan shall set forth the development
standards, mix of uses and phasing for the Project that are consistent with the Intermediate
Commercial Zoning District (“C-2”) zoning category provisions in the Zoning Ordinance, the
2648040.8 3
Town’s General Plan designations for the Property and the Downtown Area Specific Plan, which
Concept Plan may be approved or denied by the Commission in its sole discretion. Developer
further agrees that, due to the nature of this Project, the Concept Plan shall be subject to
additional review by the Town Council, which may approve or deny the Concept Plan in its sole
discretion. The Developer agrees and understands that its efforts to prepare the documents
necessary for the Concept Plan applications are undertaken at its own risk, and that the
Developer may not rely upon this Agreement as any guarantee that the Commission or the Town
Council will approve the Concept Plan. Further, once approved by the Town Council, the
Concept Plan shall not be amended or modified without Town Council approval. At Developer’s
option, the Concept Plan may be submitted in three parts: submittal one will include the
buildings and improvements shown in Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the Preliminary Land Use Plan;
submittal two will include Phase 3a as shown on the Preliminary Land Use Plan; and submittal
three will include Phase 3b as shown on the Preliminary Land Use Plan.
4. Approved Deviations for Zoning Ordinance Provisions. Unless specifically
modified as set forth in this Agreement, the Project shall be developed according to the C-2
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
4.1 Parking Modifications. Except as specifically set forth in this Subsection,
parking will be provided according to Section 7.04 of the Zoning Ordinance on a Project-wide
basis. Parking shall be shared between phases throughout the Project; provided, however, that
the shared parking necessary to meet requirements for Phase 3a shall be within 300 feet of the
northernmost entry to the commercial/retail uses in Phase 3a.
A. Commercial Parking. The parking requirements in 7.04 of the
Zoning Ordinance are hereby modified so that the overall number of commercial on-site
parking spaces is reduced by 20%. Additionally, Developer may count, as part of the
overall required on-site commercial parking requirement, the immediately-adjacent on-
street parking spaces. Developer agrees that street parking is used for calculation
purposes only and shall not be reserved or used exclusively for businesses within the
Project. Further, in order to ensure that the street parking adjacent to the Project is not
utilized for residential purposes, the Town may restrict the timing or type of parking
permitted in such immediately-adjacent street areas.
B. Residential Parking. The parking requirements in 7.04 of the
Zoning Ordinance are hereby modified so that the overall number of multiple-dwelling
residential on-site parking spaces and guest parking spaces are reduced as follows: (i) for
one-bedroom units, a reduction from 1.5 spaces per unit to 1.0 spaces per unit; and (ii) for
two-bedroom units, a reduction from 2.0 spaces per unit to 1.5 spaces per unit; provided,
however, that each residential unit shall have at least one dedicated, reserved parking
space within 300’ of such unit. Developer shall not include as part of the overall required
on-site residential parking requirement the immediately-adjacent on-street parking
spaces.
C. Street Parking. The Town will allow the use of diagonal street
parking along the front of Phase 3a on La Montana Drive and parallel street parking
2648040.8 4
along Westby Drive in conjunction with Phase 3b, each as depicted in the Preliminary
Land Use Plan. Developer will, at no cost to the Town, dedicate the property necessary
for the La Montana Drive and Westby Drive parking areas to the Town upon completion
of the parking lot improvements thereon and prior to issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy for any building in (i) Phase 3a, with respect to the La Montana Drive
property, and (ii) Phase 3b, with respect to the Westby Drive property. Developer shall
be permitted to count the new spaces constructed along La Montana Drive and Westby
Drive, if any, as part of its commercial parking requirements for the Project.
D. Parking Lot Design Modification. The minimum parking lot
setback from the property line required by Subsection 7.03(B)(6) of the Zoning
Ordinance is hereby reduced from 10 feet to 3 feet along the Westby Drive frontage.
4.2 Public Art Requirement. Developer shall provide the required
contribution to the public art required for the Project as set forth in Subsection 19.05(I) of the
Zoning Ordinance (the “Public Art Requirement”). The Town shall consider both stand-alone art
pieces and art integrated into the architectural features of the buildings within the Project, as
determined by the Public Art Committee of the Fountain Hills Cultural and Civic Association
(the “Public Art Committee”). Prior to commencement of construction for any building within
the Project, Developer shall meet with the Public Art Committee to agree on the estimated total
value of the proposed art pieces over the entire Project (broken into components related to each
phase). Prior to issuing a Certificate of Occupancy for each phase of the Project, the Developer
and Public Art Committee shall agree on the effective value of the art that has been installed and
that which has been presented on upcoming phases of the Project. The Public Art Committee’s
determinations under this Section shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. If the total
value of the public art to be provided cumulatively with each phase of the Project is less than
would have been required under the Public Art Requirement, then Developer shall provide a
bond sufficient to cover any shortfall. If Developer has not provided the full value of the
required artwork by the end of the last phase, the Developer shall issue a check for the difference
to the Town to satisfy the Public Art Requirement prior to issuance of the final Certificate of
Occupancy.
4.3 Special Use Permit. Section 12.03 of the Zoning Ordinance requires a
Special Use Permit in the C-2 zoning district for (A) group homes for handicapped and elderly
people, nursing homes, homes for the aged and convalescent homes and (B) multifamily
residential dwellings. Accordingly, Developer’s plans for the Property require a special use
permit for the Phase 1 and Phase 2 uses. The Special Use Permit requirement is hereby deemed
satisfied by this Agreement so long as Developer provides notice as otherwise would be required
pursuant to Subsection 2.02(D) of the Zoning Ordinance.
4.4 Cut Waiver. The prohibition in Subsection 5.03(D) of the Town’s
Subdivision Ordinance against cuts in excess of 10 feet in height is hereby waived.
4.5 Height Increase. The requirements of Section 12.13 of the Zoning
Ordinance are hereby modified to allow for the portion of the independent living building shown
on Exhibit C, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, to exceed the height
2648040.8 5
limitation in Section 12.13, but in no event shall any portion of the building exceed 54’ in height
as measured from existing grade. Except as specifically modified in this Section, all height
requirements of Section 12.13 shall apply.
5. Conditions to Town’s Obligations. The Town shall not be required to take any
action contemplated by this Agreement until Developer has fully performed its obligations as set
forth in Sections 6.1 – 6.12 below.
6. Developer’s Obligations. Developer shall perform all of its duties as set forth in
this Section and according to the “Schedule of Performance” attached hereto as Exhibit D and
incorporated herein by reference. Developer’s failure to timely perform its obligations as set
forth below shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall cause the immediate
termination thereof as set forth in Section 2 above.
6.1 Zoning Adherence and Performance. Developer agrees to develop the
Project in accordance with the C-2 zoning district (except as specifically modified in this
Agreement) and the Concept Plans, as reviewed and approved or denied by the Commission in
its sole discretion and then approved or denied by the Town Council in its sole legislative
discretion. Developer agrees to accept and comply with any conditions associated with Concept
Plan approval by the Town Council.
6.2 Acquisition of the Property. Developer agrees to complete the acquisition
of the Property (close escrow and confirm ownership) for development of the Project not later
than 230 days after the Effective Date.
6.3 Construction Documents. Developer shall prepare and submit to the
Town for the Town’s review and approval, the construction documents for the Project, as shown
on Exhibit B, in accordance with the Schedule of Performance and the Town codes and
ordinances.
6.4 Building Permits. Developer agrees and understands that no permits for
the construction of the Project will be issued prior to Town Council approval of the Concept
Plan. Developer shall secure all grading, building and construction permits, which may be
required by the Town and any other governmental agency prior to starting any site grading or
construction activities on the Property.
6.5 Construction on Property. Developer shall submit complete Construction
Documents for the phases of the Project, receive building permits for vertical construction of the
phases of the Project according to such construction documents and commence construction on
the Project in accordance with the Schedule of Performance. For the purposes of this subsection,
“commencement of construction” shall mean the mobilization of sufficient construction
resources to the Property to complete the phases of the Project according to the Schedule of
Performance and the Town’s codes and ordinances. Developer further agrees and acknowledges
that it shall not be permitted to begin physical construction on the Property until, and if, the
Town Council approves the Concept Plan for the applicable portion of the Property.
2648040.8 6
6.6 Third Party Review and Inspection. Developer agrees and understands
that the Town has concluded it lacks resources to provide plan review and inspection services
within the review time periods Developer desires for the Project, causing the Town to require an
outside consultant to perform the tasks on the Town’s behalf. Developer will be required to pay
the direct costs incurred by the Town resulting from its contract for the services of an outside
firm to provide plan review and inspection in connection with the Project. The Town shall
perform all plan review and inspections related to fire safety and planning and zoning; the
Fountain Hills Sanitary District will perform all plan review and inspections related to sanitary
sewer; and Epcor will perform all plan review and inspections related to the Project’s potable
water supply. If a third-party plan review and inspection firm is retained, Developer shall only
be responsible to pay 10% of the Town’s then-current building permit fee to cover the cost of the
planning and zoning/landscape plan review and inspection. Developer shall be responsible for
100% of the cost of the plan review and inspection fees related to fire safety.
6.7 Traffic Study. Developer shall submit for review to the Town a traffic
impact analysis prepared by a qualified professional identifying (A) the Project impacts on traffic
circulation in the area surrounding the Project, including but not limited to the area bounded by
Palisades Boulevard, Westby Drive, Avenue of the Fountains and La Montana Drive and (B) the
Developer’s proposed mitigation for the impacts identified (the “Traffic Study”). The Traffic
Study shall be submitted to the Town and the mitigation agreed to between the Parties by not
later than the first building permit issued for the Project, and the required mitigation for a Phase
shall be completed prior to the first Certificate of Occupancy for such Phase.
6.8 Developer Public Improvements. Developer shall design and construct all
public improvements associated with the Project including, but not limited to, street, sidewalk
and landscaping improvements to Palisades Boulevard, La Montana Drive and Westby Drive.
Developer shall also provide for drainage catch basins along the north and south sides of the
Avenue of the Fountains, at locations reasonably acceptable to Developer and the Town, to allow
for Avenue of the Fountains drainage to be conveyed through Developer’s storm drainage
system and for drainage flows from adjacent streets as deemed necessary by the Town Manager
or authorized designee; provided, however that Developer shall not be required to provide
detention for any such drainage. Upon completion and acceptance by the Town, Developer shall
dedicate all such public improvements to the Town.
6.9 Phased Development. The Town acknowledges that Developer plans to
develop the Property in four phases generally set forth in Exhibit B, as more particularly
described in the Concept Plans as approved by the Town Council. The Town will review and
approve the public infrastructure needs of each phase (the “Public Infrastructure Improvements”)
as part of its approval of the construction documents of each phase. The Developer shall
construct or cause to be constructed and installed any and all portions of the Public Infrastructure
Improvements. The Town Engineer may require that the Developer construct portions of the
Public Infrastructure Improvements not directly related to the phase being constructed by the
Developer if, in the Town Engineer’s sole discretion, he determines that the construction
sequence requested by the Developer will be detrimental to the Town or to the public.
2648040.8 7
6.10 Infrastructure Assurance. the Developer shall provide the Town with an
irrevocable letter of credit or performance/payment bonds in such form and amount as required
by the Town Attorney and Town Engineer to ensure that the installation of Public Infrastructure
Improvements necessary for development of the Property or other Public Infrastructure
Improvements directly related to such building permit or permits will be completed (the “Public
Infrastructure Assurances”). The Public Infrastructure Assurances shall be required for a phase
of the Project at the time permits are requested for any construction on that phase of the Project.
6.11 Dedication and Acceptance. Upon completion by Developer of any
Infrastructure Improvements, the Developer shall promptly (A) notify the Town in writing of the
presumptive completion of such Infrastructure Improvements and (B) dedicate to the Town, at no
cost to the Town, such Infrastructure Improvements free and clear of all liens and encumbrances
and in accordance with Town standards applicable to such dedication and acceptance. So long as
such Infrastructure Improvements are constructed in accordance with Town standards, as verified
by the inspection of the completed Infrastructure Improvements by the Town Engineer, all punch
list items have been completed and the Infrastructure Improvements are free of any liens and
encumbrances, the Town shall accept the Infrastructure Improvements. The Town shall notify
the Developer, in writing, of the Town’s acceptance of the Infrastructure Improvements.
Acceptance of any Infrastructure Improvement is expressly conditioned upon Developer
providing a warranty for such Infrastructure Improvement consistent with Town standards and as
provided in Section 6.12 below. Subject to the limitation set forth below, after acceptance of any
Infrastructure Improvements, the Town thereafter shall maintain, repair and operate such
Infrastructure Improvements at its own cost, which obligation shall survive any termination of
this Agreement. Developer, at no cost to Town, shall dedicate, convey or obtain, as applicable
all rights-of-way, rights of entry, easements and/or other use rights, wherever located, as useful
or necessary for the operation and maintenance of the Infrastructure Improvements as required
by the Town.
6.12 Warranty. Developer or its assignee shall give to the Town a one-year
warranty for all Infrastructure Improvements or other such warranty as required by the Town
Engineer, which warranty shall begin on the date that the Town accepts the Infrastructure
Improvements as provided in this Section. Any material deficiencies in material or workmanship
identified by Town staff during the one-year warranty period shall be brought to the attention of
the Developer or its assignee that provided the warranty, which shall promptly remedy or cause
to be remedied such deficiencies to the reasonable satisfaction of the Town Engineer.
Continuing material deficiencies in a particular portion of the Infrastructure Improvements shall
be sufficient grounds for the Town to require (A) an extension of the warranty for an additional
one-year period and (B) the proper repair of or the removal and reinstallation of, that portion of
the Infrastructure Improvements that is subject to such continuing deficiencies. Regardless of
whether the applicable warranty period has expired, the Developer agrees to repair any damage
to the Infrastructure Improvements caused by Developer’s construction activities on the
Property. Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Town or Developer from seeking recourse
against any other third party for damage to the Infrastructure Improvements caused by such third
party.
2648040.8 8
7. Default. If either Party fails to perform any obligation, and such Party fails to
cure its nonperformance within 30 days after notice of nonperformance is given by the non-
defaulting Party, such Party will be in default (the “Cure Period”). In the event of such default,
the non-defaulting Party may terminate this Agreement 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 part of the Cure Period as may be reasonably necessary under the circumstances,
provided the defaulting Party immediately 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 60 days.
8. General.
8.1 Notices and Requests. Any notice or other communication required or
permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
duly given if: (A) delivered to the Party at the addresses set forth below; (B) deposited in the
U.S. Mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, to the address set forth below; or (C)

Bob Rodgers, Interim Development Services Director, gave a PowerPoint presentation about the
application submitted by Gany D Hays, PC, on behalf of a potential buyer, Tory Hive, for a rezoning of
the property at 11843, N. Desert Vista Drive from C-l to C-3 for the purpose of constructing and
operating the Desert Vista Storage Center, a motor vehicle storage facility. Mr. Rodgers said the
application is also for a Concept Plan approval of the proposed storage facility. Mr. Rodgers referred to
an aerial photo showing the site location in relation to the surrounding properties and uses. These
properties are:Desert Vista Park to the West, The Yavapai Nation to the East,Colony Wash is to the
North and, Desert Vista Place Condominiums to the South. Mr. Rogders showed a portion of the zoning
map showing that the property is zoned C-l Commercial and the properties on the West side of the park
are C- 3 Commercial,properties to the South are C-2 Commercial and the properties to the North are R-4,
which is a pre-incorporation, Multi-Family zone. Storage facilities are not permitted in the C-l zoning
district. They ARE permitted in the C-3 district. This is the reason for the rezoning request. Mr. Rodgers
went on to show a "blow-up"of the site with existing conditions.Mr. Rodgers said the site is a little over
2 acres in size, mostly vacant except for the one building which has, in the past, been a doctor's office,
and it was church. For the last 20 years it has been basically unused and now it's a bit run down. There
are reports that it is becoming an attractive nuisance to kids. The structures behind the property adjacent
to the Reservation are for a Sanitary Sewer Lift station. While Mr. Rodgers showed a slide of the
