L-3. AGREEMENT AMONG MARICOPA COUNTY AND JOSEPH ARPAIO, THE MARICOPA COUNTY SHERIFF AND THE MARICOPA COUNTY LIBRARY DISTRICT Approve the following Agreement among MARICOPA COUNTY (the “County”) and JOSEPH ARPAIO, THE MARICOPA COUNTY SHERIFF (“the Sheriff”) and the MARICOPA COUNTY LIBRARY DISTRICT. On July 22, 2016, United States District Judge G. Murray Snow, ordered the Sheriff to make complaint forms (“Complaint Forms”) widely available at locations around the County, including websites for the Sheriff and the County, the lobby of the Sheriff’s headquarters, each patrol District, and the County government offices. See Paragraph 242, Item No. 1760, Docket No. 2:07-cv-2513-PHX-GMS). Judge Snow also ordered the Sheriff to ask public library branches and the offices and gathering places of community groups to make these Complaint Forms available. The Sheriff has asked the County to assist him in complying with those Orders by granting him permission to work directly with building management of the various buildings and facilities addressed in them for the placement and maintenance of complaint forms (“Complaint Forms.”) Although the Sheriff, the County and the District agree that the County and District have no legal duty to comply with those Orders, the County and District are willing to cooperate with the Sheriff to assist him in his own compliance with the Order.
