INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
TOWN OF MARANA
AND
PIMA COUNTY
FOR
PROVISION OF VIDEO-COURT HEARINGS OF MUNICIPAL INMATES
CTN-SD-24*150
THIS INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT (IGA), is entered into pursuant to ARS §
11-952 (as amended) by and between:
THE TOWN OF MARANA, a municipal corporation, (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
"Town"); and
THE COUNTY OF PIMA, a body politic and corporate, a political subdivision of the State of
Arizona, (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the"County").
WHEREAS the Parties desire to enter into an agreement to provide video-court hearings for
municipal inmates; and
WHEREAS the Town and County may contract for services and enter into agreements with
one another for joint or cooperative action pursuant to A.R.S. § 11-952, et seq.; and
WHEREAS the provision of video-court hearings for municipal inmates will be in the best
interests of the Parties and the citizens of Pima County.
NOW THEREFORE, The Town and County hereby agree as follows:
Agreement
1. Purpose. The purpose of this IGA is to set forth the terms and conditions for the Pima County
Sheriff's Department Corrections Bureau to provide the Town of Marana Municipal Court with a
video court session between Marana Municipal Court (MMC) and the Pima County Adult
Detention Complex (PCADC).
2. Obligations of the Parties. PCADC will be responsible for pulling MMC's inmate files and
preparing them for court, preparing their inmates for court, providing security in the video-court
hearing, coordinating workflow support, specific to distributing court documentation from MMC to
inmate and if applicable, completing electronic return (via fax or email) to MMC.
MMC shall fax or email PCADC's Records Unit a list of inmates that they are requesting to see
by 11 a.m. on the date of the video court hearing and shall fax or email copies of any court
paperwork generated at the hearing immediately following the video court session.
Each video court session will be held weekdays, beginning at 1200 hours. Both Town and
1.
County agree that this schedule may be changed based on either party's need for more video
court time, or based on other factors that could require a different schedule. MMC shall
complete the video court session no later than 1300 hours. Any hearing extending past 1300
hours shall be continued at a later date.
Town will pay for up to three hours of video court weekly which will cover the cost of one
Corrections Officer for one hour for security. The current salary rate for these employees is:
Corrections Officer(1 hour) $40.08
Total for three hours: $120.24
"Town of Marana inmate" shall mean any person who has been incarcerated as a result of a
charge pending in the Town of Marana Municipal Court, as a result of an agreement between
the Town of Marana and another jurisdiction to allow the person to serve his/her sentence
locally, or has been sentenced pursuant to an order of the Town of Marana Municipal Court and
for whom the Town of Marana has the legal obligation to provide or pay for prisoner housing
(this Agreement does not create such an obligation, that obligation exists under current Arizona
Law). A prisoner arrested by the Town of Marana Police Department solely on another
governmental entity warrant is not a Town of Marana prisoner.
Criteria and Rules Governing Billing:
a. A "billable video-court session" is defined as that period commencing at 1200 hours and
ending at 1300 hours Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, or any fractional part thereof.
b. Should a "billable video-court session" not occur in any given week, the Town will not be
billed that week.
c. The Town will be billed monthly for these services. The invoice for these services will
be separate from the monthly incarceration billing invoice and must be paid separately.
Criteria for Assessment of Billing:
a. The costs of a "billable video-court session" shall be based on the current rates of salary
each involved class of employee currently earns. These rates are subject to increase as
wages increase for the classification.
b. County will give Town a thirty (30) day notice of any salary rate increase and Town will
be billed accordingly.
County will submit a statement of Town video-court session charges on a monthly basis. This
statement shall provide information in chronological order as follows: billing period, dates of
video court sessions, weekly costs of individual employees, weekly totals, and the monthly total
bill.
Any individual video court session charge contested shall be made known to the County within
30 days after receipt of the monthly billing. If the Town notifies the County of a dispute within
30 days of receipt of the monthly billing, the Town may withhold payment on those specific video
court sessions for which billing is disputed until the dispute has been resolved. No dispute will
be accepted if not made within 30 days after the receipt of the monthly billing. Disputes about
the billing statement shall be jointly reviewed by both parties and satisfactorily resolved within 45
2
days of the monthly billing. All charges shall be paid within sixty days of receipt of the monthly
billing, excluding contested charges. Contested charges shall be paid within 30 days of
resolution of the dispute. Charges remaining unresolved after the 60-day period may be
arbitrated by a mutually acceptable third party. Town agrees to pay interest on outstanding
charges beginning on the 10th day after resolution of the billing at a rate of 10% per annum until
paid. Town agrees that when a check is sent to County in payment of previously disputed
charge, Town will attach an invoice detailing what specific charges are being paid. Town
agrees that when funds are withheld due to a disputed charge, the specific charge being
disputed, and the amount of payment being withheld,will be specified on an invoice attached to
the payment check for the period in which the charge disputed was included. Town agrees to
attach to each check submitted to County an invoice indicating the dates for which that check is
to be applied.
3. Term. This 1GA shall be in effect from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025. This IGA may be
extended for four(4) additional one(1) year periods or any portion thereof. Any extension shall

insurance carriers, individually and collectively from all losses, claims, suits, demands,
expenses, subrogation, attorney's fees or actions of any kind resulting from all personal injury
including bodily injury and death, and property damage occasioned during the term of this
Agreement for acts or omissions of such party, its agents, officials, and employees.

rules, regulations, standards, and Executive Orders, without limitation to those designated within
this IGA. The laws and regulations of the State of Arizona shall govern the rights of the parties,
the performance of this IGA, and any disputes hereunder. Any action relating to this IGA shall
be brought in a court of the State of Arizona in Pima County. Any charges in the governing

parties or create any employer-employee relationship between County and Town employees, or
between Town and any County employees. Neither party shall be liable for any debts,
accounts, obligations or other liabilities whatsoever of the other, including, without limitation, the
other party's obligation to withhold Social Security and income taxes for itself or any of its
employees.

or obligations to or rights in third parties not parties to this IGA or affect the legal liability of either
party to the IGA by imposing any standard of care with respect to the maintenance of public
4
facilities different from the standard of care imposed by law.
18. Severability. If any provision of this IGA, or any application thereof to the parties or any person
