GRANT-IN-AID AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
THE TOHONO O’ODHAM NATION
AND
CITY OF GLENDALE

THIS GRANT-IN-AID AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is between the Tohono O’odham
Nation, a federally recognized Indian tribe (the “Nation”), and the City of Glendale, a political
subdivision of the State of Arizona (“City”).

RECITALS

The Nation desires to convey to City a portion of its annual 12% local revenue-sharing
contribution (“Contribution”) to be used by City and non-City recipients for services that benefit
the general public.

The Constitution of the Tohono O’odham Nation, Article VI, Section 1(f) provides that
the Tohono O’odham Legislative Council is authorized to negotiate and conclude agreements on
behalf of the Nation with Federal, State, and local governments.

The Constitution of the Tohono O’odham Nation Article VII, Section 2(f) provides that
the Chairman of the Nation is the official representative of the Nation; and as such, upon passage
of a Resolution by the Legislative Council approving of any agreement with Federal, State, and
local governments, the Chairman is authorized to sign such agreements on behalf of the Nation.

Under A.R.S. § 5-601.02(H)(4), City may receive monies from the Nation for services
identified by the Nation that benefit the general public, including public safety, mitigation of
gaming impacts, and promotion of commerce and economic development.

City is authorized by A.R.S. § 11-951 through § 11-954 to enter into agreements for joint
or cooperative actions with public agencies.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties
hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the rights and responsibilities of
the parties with respect to the payment and distribution of the Contribution, as hereinafter
defined.

2. Contribution. On execution of this Agreement, the Nation will issue payment to the City
in the amount described in Schedule A (the “Contribution”) for the purpose(s) detailed in
Schedule A. City will distribute funds directly to the City recipient(s) (“City Recipients”)
listed in Schedule A.

the Contribution consistent with this Agreement. Within a reasonable time following
receipt of the Contribution from the Nation, City shall distribute the Contribution per City
policies and procedures governing the disbursement of these funds. City shall keep and
maintain records relating to the disbursements and this Agreement.

4. Term and Termination.

a. Effective Date. This Agreement shall become effective when all parties have
signed. The date this Agreement is signed by the last party, as indicated by the
date associated with the party’s signature, shall be deemed the Effective Date.

b. Term. This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and will
continue for twelve (12) months unless terminated earlier (“End Date”). The
Nation, in its discretion, may approve in writing any request by the City for a no-
cost extension, including amending the End Date and adjusting any affected
reporting requirements.

c. Termination by Nation. The Nation may terminate this Agreement with or
without cause at any time by providing City fifteen (15) days advance notice in

Contribution but before City disbursed the Contribution in accord with Section 2,
the Nation shall include in the notice of termination specific instructions
regarding disposition of the Contribution.

6. Monitoring, Review, and Audit. The Nation may monitor and review the City
Recipients’ use of their portions of the Contribution as well as the City Recipients’
performance of the projects funded thereunder, and their compliance with this
Agreement, which may include onsite visits to assess the City Recipients’ governance,
management and operations, to discuss the City Recipients’ programming and finances,
and review relevant financial and other records and materials related to the City
Recipients’ use of their portion of the Contribution. In addition, the Nation may conduct
audits, including onsite audits, at any time during the term of this Agreement, and within
three years after the Contribution has been fully spent by the City Recipients. Any onsite
visit or audit shall be conducted at the Nation’s expense, following prior written notice,
during normal business hours, and no more than once during any twelve (12) month
period.

7. Dispute Resolution. The parties mutually agree that any disputes arising pursuant to this
Agreement shall be resolved through informal dispute resolution. For all disputes arising

Attachments; DRAFT TO Grant-in-Aid Agreement GLENDALE 2021.docx

Hi Brittany! Can you help me get this to Michael or designee for review please? The tribe’s deadline is end of November,
! would like to get it done prior to the thanksgiving holiday as I’m out of the office after that for a few days.

This is a tribal pass through grant for one of our local non-profits. In the past the tribe has required a resolution from
council, they no longer require a resolution and have replaced it with a grant-in-aid agreement. Once your office has
approved and signatured | can have it signed by Kevin or Vicki. Then I’m thinking of sending it to council as a for your
information item or council meeting.

Thanks so much and hope you are doing well! It was nice to see you in person last week ©
