BETWEEN

THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF 
 
THIS INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT (the “Agreement” or “IGA”) is 
entered into this ______ day of June, 2022, pursuant to Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS) §11-
952, between the City of Glendale ("GLENDALE") acting by and through its city council 
and the City of Flagstaff ("FLAGSTAFF"), acting by and through its city council.  
RECITALS 
1. 
GLENDALE is authorized to enter into intergovernmental agreements by Arizona 
Revised Statutes§ 11-951, et seq., and the disclosure of information relating to State Taxes 
and Municipal Taxes is governed by A.R.S. § 42-2001, et seq., and by Model City Tax Code 
§ 510. 
2. 
FLAGSTAFF is authorized by Arizona Revised Statutes§ 11-951, et seq., and the 
disclosure of information relating to State Taxes and Municipal Taxes is governed by A.R.S. 
§ 42-2001, et seq., and by Model City Tax Code § 510. 
3.  
ARS §42-6001 establishes that the Arizona Department of Revenue (“DOR”) will 
collect and administer municipal privilege, transaction and use taxes ("Taxes") for all 
Arizona cities and towns. As part of its administration of the Taxes, DOR shall provide each 
city or town access to data covering the amount of Taxes reported and the amount of Taxes 
IGA-2022-171-AG1

distributed to that specific city and town. 
4.  
The purpose of this Agreement is to provide GLENDALE the mechanism to allow 
other cities and towns to cooperatively use the GLENDALE hosted and developed 
GLENDALE TAX APPLICATION ("TAX APP") to access and interact with the 
Statewide Tax data supplied by DOR, for an annual subscription fee. 
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements expressed in this 
Agreement, it is agreed as follows: 
I.  SCOPE OF AGREEMENT 
1. 
GLENDALE has developed and owns the intellectual property rights to TAX APP. TAX APP 
provides searches, dashboards, and automated notifications for the municipal tax data 
furnished by DOR.   
2. 
GLENDALE will maintain, upgrade, and administer the TAX APP. 
3. 
FLAGSTAFF will work with GLENDALE to establish role-based access control 
permissions for each FLAGSTAFF user in the TAX APP.  
4. 
All FLAGSTAFF users must have FLAGSTAFF access credentials in order to be 
granted permissions to use the TAX APP. This requires that users have the appropriate 
background checks from their organizations that meet or exceed screening requirements 
established by ARS §41-4401.  
5. 
Support services will be provided via GLENDALE’s customer portal.

6. 
Outages due to scheduled or emergency network, software and/or hardware 
maintenance will be broadcast to authorized users in advance.  
7. 
Any failure to follow GLENDALE’s acceptable use policy of the TAX APP may 
result in revocation of the access to the TAX APP. 
8. 
 Municipal tax data hosted by GLENDALE and presented in the TAX APP is 
confidential information and may not be distributed or copied except as permitted by ARS 
§42-2003. The data sources are furnished by the DOR and are considered confidential 
information as defined in ARS §42-2001. GLENDALE does not control and cannot 
guarantee the relevance, timeliness, or accuracy of this data and provides no warranty, 
expressed or implied, as to the accuracy, reliability or completeness of furnished data, and 
FLAGSTAFF releases GLENDALE from any liability related to the data. Data types 
include but may not be limited to the information detailed set forth in Appendix B in the 
respective intergovernmental agreement with the State of Arizona and FLAGSTAFF.  
9. 
The TAX APP supports the security model listed below. Each jurisdiction will select 
a security profile below for each user designated for TAX APP access. FLAGSTAFF 
acknowledges each individual user should be assigned the least privileged access needed 
depending on their job duties. FLAGSTAFF also acknowledges information obtained from 
DOR, and displayed by GLENDALE, is confidential information and may only be disclosed 
as authorized by ARS§ 42-2003.

1.

5. 
To the extent permitted by law, each party (as "Indemnitor") agrees to indemnify, 
defend, and hold harmless the other party (as "Indemnitee") from and against any and all 
claims, losses, liability, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) whether 
direct or indirect (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Claims") arising out of TAX APP 
use, but only to the extent that such Claims which result in vicarious/derivative liability to 
the Indemnitee are caused by the act, omission, negligence, misconduct, or other fault of the 
Indemnitor, its officers, officials, agents, employees, or volunteers. 
6.  
FLAGSTAFF acknowledges that GLENDALE is not responsible for the security 
practices of FLAGSTAFF, and consequently FLAGSTAFF releases and holds harmless 
GLENDALE for any liability and/or damages that emerge from a data breach that occurs as

FLAGSTAFF.  If any FLAGSTAFF user experiences a data breach relating to TAX APP

satisfaction of GLENDALE.

conditions set forth in the intergovernmental agreement, including those pertaining to 
confidentiality as defined in ARS §42-2001, and that confidential information may not be 
disclosed except as provided by statute, ARS §42-200l(B). To the extent that information 
being utilized by FLAGSTAFF and hosted by GLENDALE may have been obtained 
initially from the State, each agrees to abide by the terms and conditions set forth in their 
respective intergovernmental agreements with the State of Arizona.
