79. IGA WITH CITY OF SURPRISE FOR RECREATIONAL USE OF THE MCMICKEN DAM PROJECT AREA Approve Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) FCD 2025A002 for Recreational Use of McMicken Dam Project Area (PROJECT) between the City of Surprise (CITY) and the Flood Control District of Maricopa County (DISTRICT). This Agreement shall become effective as of the date it has been executed by all PROJECT PARTNERS and shall expire twenty-five years from that date, with up to three subsequent twenty-five-year renewals allowed. Background: The City of Surprise has requested that portions of the McMicken Dam project be developed for recreational facilities and activities. This is consistent with the city’s Parks and Recreation Master Plan and General Plan. The development of such recreational facilities will be required to be compatible with the District’s planned and future dam rehabilitation construction projects to be implemented over many years. The District shall grant to the city at no cost a non-exclusive Recreational Use Easement over the Easement Area. All proposed recreational improvements will require a District ROW Use Permit. Potential future excess land within the easement area, the limits of which will be defined in the future, will be made available to the city for purchase at fair market value. The city will be responsible for the operation and maintenance of all areas within which are located their recreational improvements. There is no cost to the District for the implementation of this IGA and the granting of easements. This Agenda Item impacts Supervisorial District 4. (C-69-25-032-X-00)
