PRESENTATION REGARDING THE FY 2022 BUDGET - MARICOPA COUNTY 
ASSESSOR
Eddie Cook, Assessor
Dawn Marie Buckland, Chief Deputy (C-06-21-379-X-00)
Eddie Cook, County Assessor, introduced Dawn Marie Buckland, Chief Deputy 
Assessor. He noted the good working relationship with the Board of Supervisors and 
expected this relationship to continue in the coming years. 
Mr. Cook stated the 2022  focus would be on executing best-in-class practices to 
become more efficient. Mr. Cook reviewed the slide below, Organizing for Excellence. 
~ Supervisor Hickman entered the meeting ~
He noted the office ended FY 2020 $1.8 million under budget.  Mr. Cook noted this 
was the best year of return to taxpayers and to the general fund from the Assessor’s 
Office. He added the goal for FY 2022 is to be fully transparent and enhance the 
customer service experience.

Mr. Cook briefly highlighted the Budget Themes for the Assessor’s Office listed in the 
slide below and turned the presentation over to Dawn Marie Buckland.
Dawn Marie Buckland  noted a few things to discuss from the Summary slide below.  
She said the focus was to maintain the enhancement of the customer experience and 
help them navigate the complexity of state laws.  She explained what needed to be 
done in the short term and long term.

Ms. Buckland reviewed the items on the Over Baseline Summary slide below and 
explained why these funds are needed. The goal was to be able to conduct business 
with the customer in an online capacity.
Chairman Sellers asked if there was a percentage of customers expected to become 
digital in the next year or two.  Ms. Buckland explained they do not have those metrics 
yet and putting those metrics together would be a very complex task.
Supervisor Chucri asked for a more specific explanation on what the $380,000 is 
addressing for Project MARS.
Supervisor Chucri said since there have been budget shortfalls in the past on this 
project, it is important the Board knows what the $380,000 is being used for. He  also 
asked what “digital first” meant and how the $428,203 is being used.

Ms. Buckland referred to the slide above, Project Mars, to answer Supervisor Chucri’s 
questions. She explained they have a contract that will achieve the mandatory 
deliverables by February 2022. She said most costs will be for cloud hosting and 
developing the system for the current year with a cost of $240,000. Ms. Buckland 
stated the total recurring costs per year will be about $600,000. She explained the 
vendor will be allocating different resources to help maintain the cloud services.
Ms. Buckland introduced Marc Kramer, Chief of Innovation and Technology, to explain 
what the Assessor’s Office is currently doing with the sales force that will help provide 
the online interface for customers.   
Mr. Kramer noted the first project underway in the “digital first” initiative would bring 
the entire transaction into a digital format. Mr. Kramer reviewed the Digital First slide 
below noting validations and transitions in the process. He stated that this initiative will 
transform the paper processes to the digital arena and will improve the efficiency of

the operation for constituents. He said this is what customers are coming to expect in 
a modern transaction. Mr. Kramer said appeals is the first initiative and how this 
funding would be used.
Supervisor Gates said he was very excited about this initiative. This is something he 
has  championed for many years. He asked if the Assessor’s Office anticipated any 
savings down the road.  Ms. Buckland said the office was anticipating this prospect 
and is working to quantify those possible savings. They are looking to automate 
processes and make the efforts less manual.  She said the office would be able to 
reduce staff over the next three to five years.
Chairman Sellers thanked Supervisor Gates for the question. He said even though 
there were upfront costs, substantial efficiencies would be gained over the upcoming 
years.
Mr. Cook noted this would minimize errors because data would go directly into a 
database.
Ms. Buckland said they will  have many opportunities to improve day to day 
interactions. She also noted the Assessor’s Office did not want to lose the personal 
touch in the transactions.
Mr. Cook noted a couple of initiatives he wished to highlight that are important for the 
County and property owners. He said his team discovered numerous stakeholders 
that claimed how confusing Proposition 117, implemented in 2015, was to the public.  
Mr. Cook said he wanted to provide the ability for the public to understand this impact 
to their property. This affects how their property is appraised following discovered 
improvements. He wanted to provide to the public the ability to calculate how much 
an improvement will impact to their property taxes.  He also advocated for common 
technologies for Maricopa County offices that provide a common customer database 
which all departments have access to. Mr. Cook urged the Board, as policy makers, 
to consider looking at these kinds of technologies.

Ms. Buckland  stated part of Digital First was to embrace teleworking. She said the 
pandemic caused teleworking to be a triage action and she thanked all the 
departments that helped make this happen. She stated a reliable and sustainable 
solution was needed. She reviewed what the over baseline items would be and how 
they would be used.
Ms. Buckland reviewed the Succession Planning slide below. She noted there are 
many people in the Assessor’s office with 20 or more years of service with the County. 
Ms. Buckland said this line of work is technical and complex and the department is 
concentrating on cross training to maintain technical training and skills in addition to 
focusing on leadership development, and continuity. Ms. Buckland mentioned the 
Computer Aided Mass Appraisal (CAMA) system and the need to understand this 
system at a detailed level. She noted there are additional systems used that require 
skills that take years to develop. The office would like to create rotations of staff in the 
CAMA group.  
Ms. Buckland reviewed the slide below and said The Assessor’s office is creating an 
environment of innovation in the best possible way. The position, Innovation 
Strategist, is being developed to specifically look at processes, interfaces, and 
ensuring that the best possible processes are in place.

Supervisor Hickman made a comment about transition and the Board’s concern with 
“brain drain” due to potential retirements. He said he remembered cross training for 
new technology that had been previously budgeted for by the former Assessor. 
Supervisor Hickman asked if those initiatives just ended.
Ms. Buckland responded that those initiatives did not end. She said this is a 
continuation of some of those initiatives. They are refocusing some of that work and 
she provided the examples of what is being done with existing resources.  
Mr. Cook stated he was aware of the presentation given by the previous Assessor. He 
believed there was a reorganization of teams and they were organizing the workflow. 
The new leadership team is evaluating those actions and there are places where 
improvements can be made.
Ms. Buckland continued with the following slide informing the Board on Project MARS 
business analyses and dashboards. She noted the department has recently hired two 
report writers that has had a huge impact on the department’s ability to analyze the 
effectiveness of the system.

Ms. Buckland pointed out one of the items on the slide below is the additional 
increases related to the additional CAMA positions that the Assessor’s office was able 
to fund from the existing budget but needed additional funds for licensing

Supervisor Chucri asked why $40,000 was needed for DocuSign. Mr. Kramer 
explained DocuSign would be integrated into the sales force application, increasing 
the number of transactions and requiring additional licensing. 
Mr. Cook thanked the Board for allowing the Assessor’s office to share part of their 
One Team culture initiatives. He and his team were grateful to collaborate with the 
Board’s team and leadership. 
Chairman Sellers thanked Mr. Cook for the update on his department.

PRESENTATION REGARDING THE FY 2022 BUDGET - MARICOPA COUNTY 
COUNTY ATTORNEY
Allister Adel, County Attorney
Ken Vick, Chief Deputy
Candice Copple, Chief of Staff (C-06-21-378-X-00)
Chairman Sellers spoke on behalf of the Board in expressing their pleasure to have 
Allister Adele, County Attorney, join them today. 
Ms. Adele congratulated Chairman Sellers for his leadership as Chairman of Board of 
Supervisors. She stated she is looking forward to the end of the pandemic and thanked 
the Board for their support while she was out on leave. She thanked her staff, 
specifically Candice Copple and Ken Vick, for their hard work while she has been out.
Candice Copple, Chief of Staff, congratulated Chairman Sellers and stated it was good 
to see everyone. She expressed her appreciation for Reid Spaulding, Assistant County 
Manager, and his contributions to getting 225 Madison ready for occupation by the 
County Attorney Offices.  
Ms. Copple reviewed the slide below on the FY 2021 budget review. She acknowledged 
the Board’s request that the budget be reduced by 2% which amounted a reduction of 
$2,073,385 for the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office (MCAO).

MCAO FY21 Budget Review
2% MCAO Budget Reduction = $2,073,385
•Increased Vacancy Savings by 1.5%
•Deleted 6 FTE positions
•Reduced Employee Educational Travel
Ms. Copple reviewed the slide below and noted in June they were asked to provide a 
proposed budget reduction of 3% and 5%. She explained the bullet points and how 
they would reduce the budget as requested.  Ms. Copple noted MCAO is currently 
spending less than what was budgeted for FY 2021. She noted some discrepancies 
are due to the halt of the criminal justice system for several weeks. She stated MCAO 
does expect spending to pick back up in FY 2022 and the timing for this will be driven 
by the courts’ schedule.
MCAO FY21 Budget Review
Proposed 3% and 5% Budget Reductions
•Held 55 positions empty
•Eliminated use of temporary employees
•Reduced overtime, supplies and services
Ms. Copple noted MCAO will not be asking for a budget increase for FY 2022.  She 
reviewed the slide below stating that MCAO’s baseline budget for FY 2022 is 
$102,149,435.  Ms. Copple provided some examples of how MCAO will use funds 
within their current budget to pay for any additional full-time employees. She noted it is 
very important to maintain competitive salaries to retain an experienced workforce.

MCAO FY22 Budget Overview
•Baseline For FY22 is $102,149,435
•No additional requests are being made for FY22
•Continue to focus on operational efficiencies
•Support for County-wide Pay for Performance
Ken Vick, Chief Deputy County Attorney, said looking at the budget moving forward, he 
wanted to make the Board aware of a few things that  will have budgetary impacts. He 
reviewed the Pandemic Criminal Trends from the slide below highlighting each bullet 
point. He noted that mitigation efforts during the pandemic have helped keep statistics  
from climbing too high. He stated the staff could handle the trend, but the Board should 
be aware that if the trend continues through the pandemic more staff will be needed.
Pandemic Criminal Trends
• New domestic violence homicides have
nearlydoubled from the same time period last year
• Family violence offenses likely underreported
 
Mr. Vick reviewed the Other Budget Considerations slide below. He explained MCAO 
is statutorily obligated to assist with adoptions for uncontested in-house adoptions. The 
Board added 2.5 full-time employees which provided a $750,000 savings by bringing 
the adoptions back in-house. He briefly reviewed RICO legislative issues and said he 
expected similar action at the legislature this year. Mr. Vick noted the Board’s support 
of diversion programs at MCAO. He stated it allows the department to remove barriers 
and would permit offenders to move out of traditional prosecution and into these 
programs. He said MCAO has several programs and he gave a brief descriptions of

Special Meeting Minutes

them. The goal is to reduce recidivism through these the programs and the statistics 
he provided indicate the programs are working. The national recidivism rates are at 
70%; in Maricopa County it is 20%. Mr. Vick stated the department is looking at the 
state legislature for additional funding to assist with these programs.
Mr. Vick noted the Criminal Justice Enhancement Fund (CJEF) revenue is declining. 
These funds are used for various full-time employees and noted it is funded with civil 
and criminal fines. These fines are declining, and he did not think we will see the funds 
as we did 5-6 years ago. Mr. Vick said this is something the Board needs to be aware 
of because it may impact future budgets.
Other Budget Considerations
• Uncontested In-House Adoptions
• Pending RICO Legislation
• Diversion
• Declining CJEF Revenue
Ms. Copple thanked the Board for their consideration.
Supervisor Chucri thanked the MCAO team and for being resourceful with their budget. 
He said he is concerned with the RICO fund and as Mr. Vick said, the County may have 
to offset some of these costs. Supervisor Chucri commended MCAO for their ability to 
work within their budgetary guidelines.

Joy Rich, County Manager, informed the Board she was going to share this 
responsibility with the three Assistant County Managers, Valerie Beckett, Reid 
Spaulding, and Lee Ann Bohn. She stated the County Manager’s Office has a 
significant request for the FY 2022 budget. She said there are significant issues, 
particularly in technology and public defense, that will need to be brought before the 
Board.  Ms. Rich reviewed the following slide noting they are asking for $28 million with 
$14 million in Operating and almost $14 million in Non-Recurring.

Ms. Beckett stated she would be reporting on three departments within her purview and

Supervisor Hickman thanked Ms. Rich for breaking down the figures and said it is a 
rarity that the Board gets to see this amount of detail. He said it allows the Supervisors 
to see some of these costs and make decisions accordingly. He asked about the Animal 
Care and Control operations subsidy of $1.3 million. He said he knows everyone is 
looking for different ways to bring in more revenue and asked if a new fee model with 
the participating communities would help meet this goal.

Special Meeting Minutes
Wednesday, January 13, 2021
Page 15 of 22
Ms. Beckett said they are looking at changing the IGA fee model to see if the 
department can be self-funded. This is going to require a more complex conversation 
as to how the Board wants to proceed with new policies with regards to Animal Care 
and Control. She said under the new leadership there has been heavy engagement 
with the Innovation Studio to streamline the processes, find efficiencies, and use the 
right people for the right services.
Ms. Rich reviewed the slide below and provided a detailed explanation for the budget 
requests. She noted the increased activity in the Social Media arena and the request 
from Communications to have dedicated staff to manage that activity. Chairman Sellers 
noted the focus on social media has become a critical area of communication.
Ms. Rich reviewed the Enterprise Technology items and expanded on the numbers and 
reasons for the ask.

Chairman Sellers questioned why different departments are spending money on 
firewalls and cyber security, and asked why this is not centralized. Ed Winfield, 
Enterprise Technology Chief Information Officer, responded and said that some of the 
elected offices have their own sub-networks that require their own firewalls. He said 
they are working to find enterprise capability for this, but until that point is reached, the 
firewalls are needed because they are the first line of defense and must be modernized. 
Chairman Sellers stated he is happy this is being looked at moving forward.
Ms. Rich continued with her presentation of the above slide.  Mr. Winfield expanded 
further on the use of DocuSign and the increase in use of this tool throughout the 
County departments. He said ways to route purchase orders and documents through 
the Procurement Department was an example. Mr. Winfield explained the value of 
OnBase, stating it offers more functionality and depth in terms of automating processes.
 
Supervisor Gates thanked Ms. Rich for the commitment made to technology. He asked 
if it was possible to see how much of this technology can be covered by CARES Act 
funding. He also asked what the ratio was for replacing desktops for laptops. Mr. 
Winfield stated there are some locations where the desktops are required, such as the 
Treasurer’s front counter, but most requests are for laptops to replace desktops. Ms.

Special Meeting Minutes

Rich said she would find out if the refresh in technology is covered by CARES Act 
funding.
Supervisor Hickman asked if an assessment was done for equipment needs and what 
equipment is available.  He said it had been reported to him there appeared to be many  
desktops positioned and no one associated with them. 
Mr. Winfield explained a detailed assessment is made when there are newly elected 
officials to determine their needs. He stated he would investigate the circumstances 
described by Supervisor Hickman.

Mr. Spaulding reviewed the above slide providing information for each request. He 
started with emergency management requests and noted the Security Services 
contract allowed for a 12% increase annually for Security Services and it was 
negotiated down to a 9% increase over a two-year period. He explained the cost to the 
County would exceed the $150,000 request if the County chose not to keep this 
contract. Mr. Spaulding continued the presentation with a review of the Equipment 
Services requests. He explained the increases are for total loss vehicle replacement 
and new equipment purchases, specifically for buses used for inmate transport.
Ms. Bohn reviewed the slide below depicting the requests being made for Human 
Services and Public Health. She began with Human Services and noted there is an 
anticipated gap in federal grants. Ms. Bohn also explained the need for the FTEs being 
requested. Ms. Bohn continued with requests being made for the Public Health 
Department as noted on the slide. She explained the City of Glendale has offered to 
donate a building to Public Health to support the rise in STDs across the valley. Ms. 
Bohn reviewed the request for the Indigent Disposition Program and stated the program 
has struggled to meet demand changes brought about by COVID.

Special Meeting Minutes
Wednesday, January 13, 2021
Page 17 of 22
Supervisor Gates asked if some of the requests being made for Public Health were 
going to be needed moving forward or would some no longer be needed post-COVID. 
Ms., Bohn explained how much had already been cut from the original request made 
by Public Health. She said these requests go toward supporting the department’s base 
operations and this will help if another rapid response outbreak occurs. Supervisor 
Gates stated he supported Public Health and appreciated Public Health being proactive 
to be better prepared for future events.
Supervisor Gallardo, Chairman Sellers, and Supervisor Chucri agreed with Supervisor 
Gates’s comments. 
Ms. Bohn moved on to review the requests being made by the Medical Examiner’s 
Office detailed on the slide below. She reviewed the need for the additional FTEs being 
requested. She noted CARES funding has been used for some of the current filled 
positions.
Supervisor Chucri asked if the retention incentives implemented has shown any 
success. Ms. Bohn responded it has been a good incentive for retention.
Ms. Bohn continued to review in detail the variety of lower-level positions needing to be 
filled on the slide below. She said the lower level positions would allow the highly 
trained medical personnel to focus on the critical areas of the Medical Examiner’s office.  
Finally, Ms. Bohn explained the radiology equipment hardware warranty expires in 
March and the vendor will not provide a warranty after that date. She said the software 
for this equipment is dated and OET has security concerns about this.

Ms. Bohn reviewed the final slide below concerning County initiatives. She explained 
the reasons for these initiatives and the corresponding costs. She said there has been 
a big increase in the Mental Health Courts and expects that trend to continue. The slide 
reflects the increase in positions to manage the cases.
Supervisor Gates said he is pleased to see these initiatives and asked how staffing 
would be handled.  Ms. Bohn responded this is in the Probate Mental Health area and 
it would require a new commissioner position.
Ms. Bohn stated, in response to the Chairman’s recent speech regarding the focus on 
homelessness, she and Bruce Liggett, Human Services Director, are making a request 
for an investment in regional homelessness. She also noted how the funds could be 
utilized in this area in partnership with other agencies.
Chairman Sellers said it is important to have community partners working together on  
this issue. He said this was encouraging.
