TOWN COUNCIL
MEETING
INFORMATION
TOWN OF MARAN A
MEETING DATE: September 6, 2005
AGENDA ITEM:
1.4
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL
FROM: James R. DeGrood, P.E. Assistant Town Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution 2005-116: Relating to Operations and Maintenance;
approving and authorizing the Mayor to execute a renewal of the
intergovernmental agreement between the Town of Marana and
Pima County for the purchase of fuel and fleet services.
DISCUSSION
The intergovernmental agreement with Pima County which allows Marana to purchase gasoline
and diesel fuel at the fueling stations operated by Pima County has expired. Staff believes that it
is in the best interest of the community to renew this intergovernmental agreement, as it allows
the town to continue to purchase fuel at a rate substantially below that available at commercial
retail filling stations and because Pima County has a wide network of fueling facilities spread
throughout the region. While Marana has a fuel station at the Marana Operations Center, it is
often more convenient to refill vehicles at Pima County facilities.
The renewal of this intergovernmental agreement also allows for the town to use Pima County
Fleet Services for vehicle services. While the use of Pima County Fleet Services for vehicle
repair is not anticipated, there may be occasions where road service from the County may be
desirable. If approved, the term of this intergovernmental agreement would run through
November 30, 2011.
ATTACHMENT
Intergovernmental agreement, excluding exhibits.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends authorizing the Mayor to execute a renewal of an intergovernmental
agreement for the purchase of fuel and fleet services from Pima County.
SUGGESTED MOTION
I move adoption of Resolution 2005-116.

agreement with Pima County for the provision of fuel and fleet services to the Town of Marana;
