Dear Chief Becher,

The purpose of this letter is to notify the Surprise Police Department that the El Mirage Police
Department intends to continue the IGA Agreement between the City of Surprise and the City of El
Mirage for Animal Control Services for FY26/27, for the period July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027.
In addition, the El Mirage City Council approved funding of $141,000 for this period, with
authorization for quarterly payments to the City of Surprise.

The Agreement allows for automatic extension of the Agreement with written notice of the annual
funding upon written notification to the City of Surprise, by May 30th of each year. We truly
appreciate the professional Animal Control Services we receive from your staff, and we look forward
to another successful year.

If you have any questions, please call me at (623) 500-3007
