EXHIBIT A
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
PIMA COUNTY
AND
TOWN OF MARANA
FOR
PAYMENT FOR THE INCARCERATION
OF MUNICIPAL PRISONERS
This Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) is entered into by and between Pima County, a
body politic and corporate of the State of Arizona ("County") and the Town of Marana, a
municipal corporation("Town") pursuant to A.R.S. § 11-952.
Recitals
County and Town may contract for services and enter into agreements with one another for
joint or cooperative action pursuant to A.R.S. § 11-951, et seq.
County and Town desire to enter into an agreement to incarcerate Town's municipal
prisoners in the Pima County Adult Detention Complex ("PCADC").
NOW, THEREFORE, County and Town, pursuant to the above, mutually agree as follows:
Agreement
I. Purpose
This IGA sets forth the terms and conditions under which Town's municipal prisoners
shall be incarcerated in the PCADC.
II. Scope
County shall receive and detain all Town municipal prisoners who are medically fit to be
incarcerated by County. County shall provide booking services, and after booking provide for
the care, feeding and medical care of said prisoners.
"Town municipal prisoner" shall mean any person who has been incarcerated as a result
of a charge pending in the Town of Marana Court, or as a result of an agreement between the
Town and another jurisdiction to allow the person to serve his sentence locally, or has been
sentenced pursuant to an order of the Marana Town Court and for whom the Town has the legal
obligation to provide or pay for prisoner housing. A prisoner arrested by Town of Marana Police
Department solely on another governmental entity's warrant is not a Town prisoner.

B. Criteria for Assessment of Billing:
1. The costs of incarceration of Town prisoners shall commence on the day
the prisoner is booked or held based on a Town charge into, or sentenced
by, Town of Marana Court. Costs for incarceration shall cease under the
guidelines established under the definition of "billable day." For Town
pretrial defendants booked between 1800 and 2400 hours one day and
released on all Town charges at or by the AM initial appearance the
following morning, the Town shall be billed according to the guidelines
established under the definition of"modified billable day."
2. When a prisoner is in custody for a charge or sentence from more than one
local limited jurisdiction court, the billing charges for days of joint
custody shall be apportioned. Costs for incarceration for days of joint
custody shall be apportioned evenly based on the guidelines established
under the definition of "billable day" among those jurisdictions from
which the joint custody arises.
3. A Town prisoner who is subsequently charged into Pima County Superior
Court and held in-custody on felony charges will cease to accrue billing
charges after 2359 hours on the date that custody for felony charges is
established. Felony custody shall take effect on the date when charging
information is received in the PCADC Records Section and the prisoner is
actually being held in-custody on the felony charges.
4. In the event of an escape, billing charges will cease to accrue after 2359
hours on the day of escape. In the event of a failure to report from
authorized leave, billing charges will cease after 2359 hours of the last day
of custody. Billing charges will begin again on the day the prisoner is
recaptured or returned to custody and is actually being held in the
PCADC.
County will submit a statement of Town prisoner charges on a monthly basis. This
statement shall provide information in alphabetical order as follows: name of prisoner, booking
date, release date, indication of booking day billing or subsequent day billing, billing period,
daily rates, total billing days, and the total bill.
Any individual prisoner charges disputed shall be made known to the County within
thirty (30) days after receipt of the monthly billing. If Town notifies County of a dispute within
thirty (30) days of receipt of the monthly billing, Town may withhold payment on those specific
prisoners for whom billing is disputed until the dispute is resolved. No dispute will be accepted
if not made within thirty (30) days after receipt of the monthly billing. Disputes about the billing
statement shall be jointly reviewed by both parties and satisfactorily resolved within forty-five
(45) days of the monthly billing. All charges shall be paid within sixty (60) days of receipt of the
