Item Text

11. AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT WITH STADIUM DISTRICT FOR SECURITY SERVICES AT CHASE FIELD Approve Amendment No. 4 to the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) for Law Enforcement Services between the Maricopa County Stadium District and Maricopa County. The original IGA was effective March 18, 1998 to enable Maricopa County through the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office to provide law enforcement and security services to the Maricopa County Stadium District for Diamondbacks baseball games and Stadium District events held at Chase Field. This amendment increases the hourly billing rates for various ranks of officers that would be assigned to an event and is effective June 1, 2009. All other terms and conditions remain the same. Approval of this agenda item will allow the Sheriff's Office to recover its personnel costs associated with enforcement services to Chase Field during Diamondbacks baseball games and events scheduled by the Stadium District. Hourly rates and benefits have increased since 2006 and this amendment reflects the impact of those changes. A corresponding agenda item is listed on the Stadium District Agenda under C-78-98-040-2-01. (C-50-98-065-0-04)
