ARIZONA AUTOMOBILE THEFT AUTHORITY
FY 2021 LAW ENFORCEMENT
This Agreement is made this  07/01/2020, by and between the Arizona Automobile Theft
Authority, hereinafter referred to as the AATA, and the  Glendale Police Department,
hereinafter referred to as the GRANTEE. AATA and GRANTEE are referred to herein
individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” The AATA enters into this Agreement
pursuant to its authority under the provision of A.R.S. § 41-3451 and having satisfied itself as to
the qualifications of the GRANTEE.
 NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed between the Parties as follows:  
GRANT AGREEMENT
1.
This Agreement will commence on 07/01/2020.  All grant funds must be
expended by 06/30/2021.  This agreement is subject to cancellation pursuant to
the provision of A.R.S. §38-511.  This AATA grant expires at the end of the
agreement period, unless prior written approval for an extension has been
obtained from the AATA.  The GRANTEE agrees to return all unexpended
funds to the AATA within 60 days of the expiration date of this grant should
termination occur prior to original expiration date, unless a grant extension is
agreed to and an approved carry forward is authorized.
2.
Grant funds will not be used to supplant Federal, State, County, or local funds
that would otherwise be made available to the GRANTEE for law enforcement
purposes.  Grant funds that are distributed pursuant to this agreement are not to
be expended for any indirect costs incurred by the GRANTEE for the
administration of this grant.

3.
If equipment is valued over $1,000, the AATA requires the GRANTEE to
record and report performance data and impact on vehicle theft in its
jurisdiction for five years or the useful life of the equipment, whichever is
less.  In addition, the GRANTEE will own the equipment awarded through the
grant and will be responsible for maintaining the equipment in good working
order.
4.
The GRANTEE shall operate in a manner consistent with, and in compliance
with, the provisions and stipulations of the approved AATA grant application
letter and this agreement.  If the AATA finds non-compliance, the GRANTEE
will receive a formal written notice that identifies the area of non-compliance
and the appropriate corrective action to be taken.  If the GRANTEE does not
respond within 30 calendar days to this notice, and does not provide sufficient
information concerning the steps that are being taken to correct the problem,
the AATA may suspend funding or permanently terminate the agreement or
revoke the grant.  Any deviation or failure to comply with the purposes and/or
conditions of this agreement without written permission from the AATA may
constitute sufficient reason for the AATA to terminate the agreement. The
revocation of the grant will require the return of all unspent funds, require that
an audit of expended funds be performed at GRANTEE’s expense. It will also
require the return of any previously expended funds that may have been spent
in violation of the purposes and conditions of the grant.
5.
The final funding schedule will be determined by the AATA and will be based
on funding availablity.
6.
Requests for budget adjustments and/or reprogramming must be submitted
in writing to the AATA.
7.
The grant funds awarded under this agreement are conditioned upon the
availability of funds appropriated or allocated for the cash payment of such
obligation.  If funds are not allocated, are reverted or otherwise unavailable for
the continuance of this agreement, the AATA may terminate this agreement at
the end of the period for which funds are available.  No liability shall accrue to
the AATA in the event this provision is exercised, and the AATA shall not be
obligated or liable for any future payments or for any damages as a result of
termination under this paragraph.
