| Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This: |
| When the Law Enforcement Administrative Facility was completed in 2000, the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office, Coconino County Jail District, and the Flagstaff Police Department began the collocation in the new building. Simultaneously, Intergovernmental Agreements (IGA’s) were executed to provide details of the shared services. The Flagstaff Police Department provided Dispatch services and Records services, and the Sheriff’s Office provided Information Technology services, Maintenance and Custodial services, and Warrants services. These IGA’s were in place until now. |
| Options and Alternatives: |
| The alternative to shared services would be for each agency to budget employees and equipment for the services of Dispatch, Records, Warrants, Information Technologies, and Maintenance/Custodial. |
| Background/History: |
| When the Law Enforcement Administrative Facility was completed in 2000, the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office, Coconino County Jail District, and the Flagstaff Police Department began the collocation in the new building. Simultaneously, Intergovernmental Agreements (IGA’s) were executed to provide details of the shared services. The Flagstaff Police Department provided Dispatch services and Records services, and the Sheriff’s Office provided Information Technology services, Maintenance and Custodial services, and Warrants services. These IGA’s were in place until now. Since these agreements have been in place, technology and services have evolved. All agencies have negotiated current services and we are requesting the Jail District Directors and the Board of Supervisors to approve the agreements. |
| Community Benefits and Considerations: |
| The Intergovernmental Agreement will allow the Flagstaff Police Department and Coconino County Sheriff's Office to jointly control crime and administer justice. This contributes to a Safe and Healthy Community by providing public safety services with resources, staff and training responsive to the community's needs. |
| Community Involvement: |
| Inform the Council and public on the Intergovernmental Agreement and how the partnering agencies are providing public safety services with adequate resources. |
| Expanded Options and Alternatives: |
1. Approve as recommended.
2. Disapprove the IGA with the County and require each agency to budget employees and equipment for the services of Dispatch, Records, Warrants, Information Technologies, and Maintenance/Custodial. |
