Re: Notice of Termination of the April 23, 1979, Intergovernmental Agreement
between Town of Marana and Pima County (the "IGA")
Dear Chairman Elias:
The Town of Marana has concluded that it needs to own and operate the sewer utility
serving its jurisdictional boundaries to control its own destiny and maximize its available water
resources. To that end, the Town has elected to terminate the above-referenced IGA pursuant to
Paragraph 2 of the IGA, which states:
... this Agreement shall remain in effect until terminated by either
party hereto at will upon the giving of six months' written notice.
This termination shall be effective, pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 2, six months from the
date of this letter.
The Town wishes to express its thanks to Pima County for its efforts from 1979 forward,
and looks forward to working with Pima County elected officials and staff to accomplish a
logical implementation of its decision.
The Town is prepared to work and negotiate with Pima County on areas of mutual
concern, including division of existing indebtedness and obligations and -participating in
discussions concerning the creation of a regional water and wastewater authority.
Sincerely,
TowN OF MARANA
