Settlement Reached in Hansen Lawsuit
On Thursday, April 1, 2004, the Fountain Hills Town Council authorized the Mayor to
execute a settlement agreement between the Town and Cassie Hansen, ending a $2 Million
lawsuit filed by Ms. Hansen relating to her departure from the Town's employment.
The settlement agreement calls for a payment from the Town to Ms. Hansen in the
amount of $112,500. The Town will be required to contribute its deductible of $5,000 and the
remainder will come from the Town's insurer. The settlement agreement specifies that the Town
is not admitting any liability or wrongdoing, only that it desired to resolve the matter before
incurring the burden, expense and delay of further litigation. "The Council believed that it was
in the Town's best interest to resolve this matter now and avoid the legal costs to both sides that
would result from proceeding to trial," said Fountain Hills Town Manager, Tim Pickering.
The settlement agreement contains all of provisions set forth in the terms of settlement
document signed by the Town and Ms. Hansen at a mediation held on March 18, 2004, except
for the requirement that the parties author a mutually agreed -upon press release; a provision that
was waived by Ms. Hansen after the mediation.
"The Town believes that this is a good resolution to an unfortunate situation," said
Fountain Hills Mayor Wally Nichols. For more information contact Town Manager Tim
Pickering at 480-816-5107.

Subject: RE: Cut and Fill regulations
Dear Vice -Mayor Melendez:
I read with interest your comments in today's Scottsdale Republic regarding the proposed contract for $105,000 with Maximus for
"strategic planning".
I agree with your suggestions that this is moving too fast and that it may be an unnecessary expense.
There is certainly nothing wrong with long-range planning. However, I question why it is necessary to spend over a hundred
thousand dollars on an outside consultant.
In the first place, a strategic plan, particularly in Fountain Hills, where Councils often change makeup significantly from one election
to the next, is really only good for the Council that adopts it — assuming that THEY don't change their minds. To think that a 5 year
plan will still have relevance after 2 new Councils are seated in that time is wishful thinking at best. To make a 5 year plan relevant,
it will need to be updated regularly, probably at least once every 2 years. Will we spend another $105,000 each time?
It is my understanding that Mr. Pickering is also proposing in the draft budget that an assistant town manager be hired.
Noi,e
that is something that I think is long overdue. But instead of hiring an outside consultant for strategic planning, why not look for
an3tant town manager with good financial and strategic planning skills and task him or her with the job of creating a draft plan -
wit input of town residents.
For $105,000, you can probably hire a new assistant town manager and have some money left over after paying the first year's
salary.
In any event, isn't this something that the new Council should decide? If hired, ALL of the consultant's strategic planning work will
be performed for the new Council to be seated in June.
I will not be able to attend tonight's meeting (my son will be competing for Fountain Hills High School in the Regional track
championship meet tonight), but request that these comments be included in the record of the meeting and that my opposition to
the hiring of a consultant be noted for the record.
Regards,
John McNeill

RE: Case # S2004-01; Preliminary and Final

LOCATION: 16420 Monaco Drive
REQUEST: Consider the Preliminary Plat for "PRL Condominiums", a 2-unit
condominium project.
DESCRIPTION:

SUMMARY:
Duplex; zoned "R-2"
Duplex; zoned "R-2"
Duplex; zoned "R-2"
Duplex; zoned "R-2"
This request is for approval of the Preliminary Plat "PRL Condominiums" Declaration of
Condominium, which subdivides cubic airspace, and is not a land sell project. Due to the
simplicity of this request and the fact that this project does not involve any off -site public
improvements, a "fast track" process is being allowed.
The owner, Patricia R. Lynch, has chosen to convert a two -unit complex and record a Declaration
of Condominium to sell the units individually. Unit A has 2,180 square feet and Unit B has 1,995
square feet of livable area and both units have a 2-car garage and covered patio. The property was
developed and received a certificate of occupancy prior to the Town's incorporation, under
building permit #86-1551.
The property is currently a legal non -conforming use as the garage for Unit A encroaches into the
20' front yard setback. Future development will be required to adhere to Chapter 3 of the Zoning
Ordinance.
The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this request at their May 13, 2004 regularly
scheduled meeting and unanimously approved.
® RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of S2004-01; Preliminary Plat "PRL Condominiums" with the
following stipulation:
1. Future development of this site shall conform to Chapter 3 of the Town of Fountain Hills
Zoning Ordinance for legal non -conforming structures.

b. Response times may be excluded which occur during periods of such
severe weather and road conditions which could reasonably be
expected to substantially impair Rural/Metro's response time

disaster must be made or affirmed by the chief executive officer of that
particular jurisdiction or his/her designee.
e. In cases of multiple response runs, (i.e., where more than one fire unit
is sent to the same incident), only the response of the first arriving unit
shall be counted for purposes of measuring Rural/Metro's response
time performance.
f. Petitioning. Where not specifically set forth in this appendix,
Rural/Metro may petition The Town of Fountain Hills for an exception
to the response time requirements when, due to circumstances beyond
the control of Rural/Metro, they are unable to meet the required
response time on a specific incident. Rural/Metro shall document said
unusual circumstances, the time period affected, and the affected
response times. Rural/Metro shall forward such reports to The Town
of Fountain Hills, who will make a determination as to whether to
exclude or include the affected response time.

termination to each other party following expiration of said 120-day
period. Following any such termination notice after selection of the

• resolution of the Dispute in writing to each party, which recommendation
shall not be binding upon the parties; provided, however, that the parties
shall give good faith consideration to the settlement of the Dispute on the
basis of such recommendation.
e. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this
Section shall preclude any party from seeking interim or provisional relief,
in the form of a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or
other interim equitable relief concerning the Dispute, either prior to or
during the ADR process if necessary to protect the interests of such party.
Further, this Section shall be specifically enforceable.
f. At the reasonable request of either party, the Neutral shall adopt
rules and procedures designed to expedite the dispute resolution process.

the required insurance at all times during the performance of this
Agreement.

Liability and Automobile Liability insurance coverage required hereunder
shall name the Town, its agents, representatives, officers, directors,

by Rural/Metro provide coverage for general operations of Rural/Metro

providing it with the insurance coverages required in this Agreement.

conditions and limits of coverage specified in this Agreement and that
such coverage and provisions are in full force and effect. If a certificate of
insurance is submitted as verification of coverage, the Town shall
reasonably rely upon the certificate of insurance as evidence of coverage

APPENDIX G
RESPONSE TIMES
Response Time. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Rural/Metro's response time on all
Code 3 calls that originate from within the Primary Service Area, shall average five minutes or
less, except in those areas outlined in Exhibit A which will average eight minutes.
a. Response Time Definition. Response time is defined as that period of time
between when the first apparatus goes enroute to a Code 3 call, to the time of the
arrival of the first piece of emergency or fire apparatus at the address of the call.
b. Response Time Liabilities. Rural/Metro shall meet the response time
requirements set forth herein a minimum of ninety percent (90%) of the time
excluding exceptions.
Performance Evaluation/Exception. In performing calculations to evaluate Rural/Metro's
response time performance as set forth herein, all response times originating from within
Rural/Metro's Primary Service Area, consistent with the requirements of Section 1.4 herein,
shall be included except as follows:
a. Response times shall be excluded where a RuraUMetro unit is instructed to
"downgrade" the response time from a higher priority level to a lower priority
level (i.e., Code 3 lights and sirens to Code 2 no lights and sirens) by the caller or
third party.
b. Response times may be excluded which occur during periods of such severe
weather and road conditions which could reasonably be expected to substantially
impair Rural/Metro's response time performance: provided, it shall be
Rural/Metro's responsibility to document said conditions, the time period
affected, and the affected response times. Rural/Metro shall forward such report
to the Town, who will make a determination as to whether to exclude or include
the affected response times.
C. Excessive responses occurring during periods of unusual system overload.
Unusual system overload is defined as a period of time during which units from
two (2) or more stations are simultaneously on emergency calls, originating from
within the Primary Service Area. Response times to calls in excess of that
number shall not be included in response time calculations. Under this
subsection, response times shall not be included which occur during the time in
which Rural/Metro has sent an emergency or fire apparatus vehicle, which is
assigned to the Primary Service Area to an area other than the Primary Service
Area.
d. The response time requirements of this Agreement shall be suspended during a
declared disaster in the community of the Town or in a neighboring jurisdiction,
which has requested assistance from Rural/Metro. For the purpose of this
provision, the declaration of disaster must be made or affirmed by the chief
executive officer of that particular jurisdiction or his/her designee.
31
V-5
e. In cases of multiple response runs, (i.e., where more than one fire unit is sent to
the same incident), only the response of the first arriving unit shall be counted for
purposes of measuring Rural/Metro's response time performance.
f. Petitioning. Where not specifically set forth in this appendix, Rural/Metro may
petition the Town Manager for an exception to the response time requirements
when, due to circumstances beyond the control of Rural/Metro, it is unable to
meet the required response time on a specific incident. Rural/Metro shall
document said unusual circumstances, the time period affected, and the affected
response times. Rural/Metro shall forward such reports to the Town Manager,
who will make a determination as to whether to exclude or include the affected
response time.
g. Any excluded incident cannot be applied to any of Rural/Metro's performance
statistics set forth in sections (b)(c)(d).

however, that in no event shall the term of this lease extend beyond the later of the
termination or expiration of that certain Fire Protection Services Agreement between

OUT OF THE VEHICLES. Lessee agrees to make the rental and other payments
required hereunder without regard to the condition of the Vehicles or any part thereof and
to look only to the manufacturer, vendor or carrier thereof should the Vehicles, when
received, be defective in any manner, or should the Vehicles or any part thereof for any
reason other than improper maintenance resulting from the nonperformance of Lessor's
duties described above, be inoperative or defective.
5. Lessee's Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute a
default by Lessee and a breach of this Lease: (1) the failure of Lessee to pay any
installment of rent promptly when same shall become due; (2) any breach or failure of the
Lessee to observe or perform any of its other obligations hereunder; or (3) the making by
the Lessee of an assignment for the benefit of creditors or the entry of a petition against
Lessee for involuntary bankruptcy.
6. Insurance. Lessee shall obtain on the Vehicle, at its own expense, property damage and
liability insurance in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with such
insurers as shall be required by the Services Agreement.

immediately return the Vehicle to Lessor at such location as Lessor shall designate.

the parties hereto, their respective successors, assigns or other legal representatives.

fees, costs, and expenses related to such action.

18. Dispute Resolution. If a dispute arises among the parties in connection with this
Agreement, or any instruments delivered in connection herewith, including without
limitation an alleged breach of any representation, warranty or covenant herein or therein,
or a disagreement regarding the interpretation of any provision hereof or thereof (the
"Dispute"), the parties agree to use the following procedure in good faith prior to any
party pursuing other available judicial or non judicial remedies:
a. A meeting shall be held among the parties within ten (10) days after any
party gives written notice of the Dispute to each other party (the "Dispute
37
V-5
Notice") attended by a representative of each party having decision -making
authority regarding the Dispute (subject to board of directors or equivalent
approval, if required), to attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the
Dispute.
b. If, within thirty (30) days after the Dispute Notice, the parties have not
succeeded in negotiating a written resolution of the Dispute, upon written request
by any party to each other party all parties will promptly negotiate in good faith to
jointly appoint a mutually acceptable neutral person not affiliated with any of the
parties (the "Neutral"). If all parties so agree in writing, a panel of two or more
individuals (such panel also being referred to as the "Neutral") may be selected by
the parties. The parties shall seek assistance in such regard from the American
Arbitration Association or the Center for Public Resources if they have been
unable to agree upon such appointment within forty (40) days after the Dispute
Notice. The fees and costs of the Neutral and of any such assistance shall be
shared equally among the parties.
C. In consultation with the Neutral, the parties will negotiate in good faith to
select or devise a nonbinding alternative dispute resolution procedure ("ADR") by
which they will attempt to resolve the Dispute, and a time and place for the ADR
to be held, with the Neutral (at the written request of any party to each other
party) making the decision as to the procedure and/or place and time if the parties
have been unable to agree on any of such matters in writing within ten (10) days
after selection of the Neutral.
d. The parties agree to participate in good faith in the ADR to its conclusion;
provided, however, that no party shall be obligated to continue to participate in
the ADR if the parties have not resolved the Dispute in writing within one
hundred twenty (120) days after the Dispute Notice and any party shall have
terminated the ADR by delivery written notice of termination to each other party
following expiration of said 120-day period. Following any such termination
notice after selection of the Neutral, and if any party so requests in writing to the
Neutral (with a copy to each other party), then the Neutral shall make a
recommended resolution of the Dispute in writing to each party, which
recommendation shall not be binding upon the parties; provided, however, that
the parties shall give good faith consideration to the settlement of the Dispute on
the basis of such recommendation.
e. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Section
shall preclude any party from seeking interim or provisional relief, in the form of
a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable
relief concerning the Dispute, either prior to or during the ADR process if
necessary to protect the interests of such party. Further, this Section shall be
specifically enforceable.
f. At the reasonable request of either party, the Neutral shall adopt rules and
procedures designed to expedite the dispute resolution process.

TOWN OF FOUNTAIN HILLS
Office of Town Manager
INTER OFFICE MEMO
TO: The Honorable Mayor Nichols and
DT: May 13, 2004
Council
FR: Tim Pickering, Town Manager
RE: FY 2004-2005 Maricopa County Law
;!!
Enforcement Agreement
The staff recommends approval of the attached agreement with Maricopa County Sheriff's
Office to provide all law enforcement services for the Town of Fountain Hills. I have also
reviewed Queen Creek, Cave Creek and Carefree agreements for comparison purposes. Fountain
Hills is by far the Sheriff's largest contract.
SERVICES PROVIDED
This agreement provides for all law enforcement services including traffic enforcement, crime
prevention, patrol activities, youth educational services, high school resource officer, court
services, neighborhood block watch coordination, responding to barking dog complaints,
handling walk-up window operations, detective services, transporting prisoners, and call
receiving and dispatching. These services are outlined in the County's agreement.
Staffing levels will be 3.5 deputies per patrol beat, which will maintain roughly 1.3 officers per
1000 residents. In addition, Maricopa County will provide all necessary police training as
required by the State.
According to monthly reports for the most recent six-month period, the four most frequent
Fountain Hills calls for service were alarms calls, welfare checks, suspicious person, and civil
matters. Other typical calls included handling traffic accidents, motorist assists, and burglaries.
COST
The cost of the FY 2004-2005 agreement is $1,730,470 that covers all law enforcement activity
except animal control and property maintenance code enforcement. This is an 8% increase over
last year's agreement primarily due to the addition of the High School resource officer position
at $74,570. In comparison, the 02-03 fiscal year law enforcement budget equaled $2.5M. With
the addition of fire service and the defeat of Proposition 400, the reduction in service cost for this
activity is much needed. If the next year's cost exceeds 3%, a letter of explanation will have to
be submitted justifying the change.
TERM, REVISIONS, CHANGES AND CANCELLATION
The term of the agreement is three years which should provide stability in a service area that has
seen disruption over the past years. Either party must give 24 months of termination notice. The
Town would require that much time if in the future our own department was desired. The Town
Attorney and I reviewed the agreement to insure proper insurance coverage and to indemnify the
Town. All changes to the previous agreement are noted in the redlined version of the former
contract that is attached. One minor change is the quarterly meeting with the Mayor that is done
on a routine basis.
SUMMARY
I recommend a motion to approve the Maricopa County Law Enforcement agreement. The
Town Attorney has reviewed the agreement. Should you have any questions please do not
hesitate to contact me.

less than any may be due and owing at any time shall not be construed as an accord and
satisfaction.
(c) This Agreement contains all the terms and conditions agreed to by the parties. No other
understanding, oral or otherwise, regarding the subject matter of this Agreement shall be deemed
to exist or to bind any of the parties hereto. Nothing in this agreement shall be construed as

Lieutenant or higher, who shall be designated the "District Commander" and who shall be
responsible for the supervision and coordination of Law Enforcement Services by the Sheriff's
Office within the Town. The Sheriff's Office will provide the Town with a list of candidates from
which to select the District Commander. The Sheriff's Office shall assign the District Commander
to service within the Town for a term of at least two years and such individual will not be
reassigned except upon mutual agreement of the Town and the Sheriff's Office.
(b) The Sheriff's Office will, from time to time, assign to the Town sufficient deputies to provide the
Law Enforcement Services required by this Agreement. Staff will be assigned to the Town on a
full-time basis and will work within the Town limits unless required to cross jurisdiction
boundaries for pursuits, ongoing investigation of Town cases or other temporary law enforcement
emergency situations including responding to requests for assistance from other officers in
surrounding jurisdictions in emergency or dangerous situations. The Sheriff's Office personnel
who are selected for deployment to the Town will be required to make a two year commitment to
this assignment in the Sheriff's Office and shall remain deployed to the Town for such two-year
period unless reassignment is requested by the Town Manager; provided, however, that the
Sheriffs Office may transfer personnel, with prior notification to the Town Manager, when such
transfer is in the best interests of the Town and the Sheriff s Office.
(c) The Town, acting through the Town Manager shall have the right to request in writing that any
staff assigned to service within the Town by the Sheriff's Office be reassigned or otherwise
removed from service within the Town. When such request is made, the Sheriff's Office shall
comply as soon as reasonably practical, but in any case within no more than three weeks after such
request is made.
May 12, 2004
• (d) In order to create a spirit of local involvement, the Sheriff's Office shall encourage the District
Commander to become active in local community affairs, such as joining local civic groups,
attending meetings of the Chamber of Commerce and speaking to local organizations and the
schools. Deputies assigned to the Town shall become familiar with Town streets and layout,
Town special events and such other aspects of the community as to permit them to implement a
community -based policing program.
(e) All full time deputies assigned to the Town shall wear uniform items or markings mutually agreed
upon by the Town and the Sheriff's Office that identify them as being Fountain Hills Deputy
Sheriffs. Any cost for such items will be the responsibility of the Town.

vehicles owned by the Fountain Hills Posse, shall be marked to identify them as being the
Fountain Hills units. The Sheriff's Office and the Town shall mutually agree upon the specific
design and markings.
(g) The Sheriff's Office will staff the law enforcement walk-up window Monday through Friday 8
a.m. to 5 p.m., excluding legal holidays when the Court is closed. The Town Manager will ensure

when needed, the services of its other general divisions, which are routinely made available to

the time that public schools are in session in Fountain Hills, the Sheriff's Office shall maintain an active
S.T.A.R.S. program within the community. There shall be no additional cost to the Town for such ancillary
services.
15. Chain of Command and Responsibility for Performance Standards
(a) The Town Manager shall be responsible for coordinating all Law Enforcement Services within the
Town as well as conveying the wishes of the Town Council to the District Commander with
respect to Law Enforcement Services. The District Commander shall, at all times, consider the
request of the Town Manager with respect to the implementation of Law Enforcement Services.
While the Town Manager shall have no chain of command authority to direct the operations of the
deputies from the Sheriff's Office, such authority being reserved to the Maricopa County Sheriff
pursuant to section 15.b. below, the parties to this Agreement understand that the Town expects
the Sheriff's Office to reasonably respond to its needs for Law Enforcement Services as
communicated through the Town Manager.
(b) The Maricopa County Sheriff is solely responsible for the performance, evaluation discipline and
movement of his deputies as well as other matters incidental to the provision of the Law
Enforcement Services under this Agreement. In the event of a dispute between the parries

* Summary Expenditure Report for the General Fund shows that $7,772,061 has been
expended for the nine months ending March 31, 2004 (63.8% of the annual budget)
* Year to date surplus of revenues over expenditures is $1,710,948
* Approximately $500,000 of the savings is due to unpaid claims for sales tax rebate and
vacancy savings (emergency management coordinator, code enforcement officer)
* Expenditures for major maintenance items (wash, mowing, etc.) have not yet been
made but are anticipated during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ($260,000)
* The decrease in law enforcement from FY2002-03 is due to the elimination of a dual
law enforcement agency to a single contract with Maricopa County Sheriff's Office
* HURF surplus is the result of major road improvements that were budgeted and
normally occur during the last half of the fiscal year ($407,475)

Fund Balance
Adopted Financial Policies establish a level of reserves (fund balance) that provide future
financial stability for the Town. The policy requires that the Town set aside undesignated
reserves in an amount equal to 30 days annual operating expenditures, designated unreserved
funds of a minimum 10% of average revenues and reserved funds of 20% of average
revenues. The General Fund balance as of March 31, 2004 is as follows:
E:\WPDATA\BUDGET MEMO COUNCIL.doc
Undesignated Unreserved
Designated Unreserved
Reserved
Total
Per Policy YTD 3/31/04
$1,022,750

$1,230,675
2 461 350
$2,461,350
$4,714,775
$5,744,628
However, the fund balance does not reflect liabilities for property taxes, sales tax refund
claims, pre -approved capital projects, etc.
Cash Balance
The Town of Fountain Hills maintains sufficient cash balance at the local bank in order to pay
vendors and payroll obligations. Idle cash is invested with the Local Government Investment
Pool (LGIP-GOV), which is invested only in securities backed by the full faith and credit of
the federal government, and available on 24 hours notice. The following is the cash on hand
as of March 31:
FY2003-04 FY2002-03
General Fund $5,370,269 $3,220,620
Development Fees $1,579,755 $ 982,019
HURF $ 527,310 $ (100,523)
Special Revenue Fund $ 234,932 $ (35,367)
Debt Service $ 820,100 $ 562,606
Excise Tax $2,464,508 $1,993,146
Summary
Moody's Investors Service has removed the negative outlook that had been assigned to the
Town's general obligation bonds — an indication that financial stability has been restored.
The fourth quarter of the year is expected to continue the precedent of revenues exceeding
expenditures with an anticipated General Fund surplus of $1.3 million by June 30, 2004,
$826,735 more than budgeted. The savings are primarily due to unpaid sales tax refund
claims and positions not being filled. During the last quarter of the year staff will be
conducting an analysis of the Town's revenue structure for business license and liquor
permits, development fees and other revenues to determine if modifications are warranted.
