AGREEMENT BETWEEN 
MARICOPA COUNTY 
 
AND 
 
AMERICAN MEDICAL RESPONSE OF MARICOPA, LLC 
 
This Agreement (“Agreement”), effective on the date last signed below, is between Maricopa 
County, a political subdivision of the state of Arizona (“COUNTY”) and American Medical 
Response of Maricopa, LLC, a foreign limited liability company (“AMR”). 
 
COUNTY is authorized to enter into this Agreement pursuant to A.R.S. §11-201 and §11-251.  
 
The purpose of this Agreement is to fulfill the need for the establishment and maintenance of 
modern and reliable radio communication systems for AMR and COUNTY. Use of AMR sites by 
COUNTY and use of COUNTY sites by AMR will enhance the communication systems of both 
parties. 
  
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein, the parties agree as follows: 
 
1. Site Availability. This Agreement includes all COUNTY and AMR radio sites where 
space and technical parameters allow non-interfering operation between existing services 
and any new services proposed by COUNTY or AMR. COUNTY and AMR will make its 
respective radio sites available for the co-location of the radio communications equipment 
of the other, to the fullest extent that is technically and legally feasible, pursuant to the 
terms of this Agreement. 
 
2. Site-Specific Terms. COUNTY and AMR will enter into a Site-Specific Supplemental 
Agreement (“SSSA”) for each site utilized under this Agreement. SSSAs will be reviewed 
and updated as needed by COUNTY and AMR. 
 
3. Definitions. The agency whose site is utilized will be referred to as the “Host Agency” 
and the agency utilizing the site will be referred to as the “Benefiting Agency” in this 
Agreement and any SSSAs. 
 
4. Component Costs. Unless otherwise specified in SSSAs, all radio communications system 
components will be provided by the Benefiting Agency and the cost of planning, 
construction, installation, operation, engineering and maintenance of those systems will 
be borne by the Benefiting Agency. If any improvements that exist on the sites need to be 
removed and/or relocated to construct or install the Benefiting Agency’s equipment and/or 
communication systems, the removal and/or relocation of the improvements and the 
associated costs shall be borne solely by the Benefiting Agency.  
 
5. Benefiting Agency Obligations. The Benefiting Agency agrees to: 
 
(a) Provide maintenance for Benefiting Agency’s radio communications equipment 
using agency personnel or technical personnel from an outside service provider 
acceptable to the Host Agency. A Benefiting or Host Agency representative must 
be present when work is performed by an outside service provider.

(b) Contact the Host Agency to coordinate installation or removal of equipment.  
Installation and construction of the communication systems and equipment on the 
sites is contingent upon Benefiting Agency obtaining all legally required permits

amendment to an SSSA shall not be considered the granting of a permit or receipt 
of any type of approval from the Host Agency or the agency with jurisdiction. 
 
(c) Provide the Host Agency with current copies of FCC/NTIA licenses needed to 
operate radio communications equipment. 
 
(d) Notify the Host Agency when entering or leaving Host Agency’s buildings.

other installation standards set forth by Host Agency. 
 
(g) Be responsible for providing quality control by means of physical inspections, radio 
acceptance, and other testing to ensure the installation of equipment meets Host 
Agency and FCC/NTIA standards.  
 
(h) Benefiting Agency shall ensure the security of the sites and will not allow 
unauthorized persons to have access thereto. Benefiting Agency will not allow 
nonofficial use of the sites without prior written consent of the Host Agency. 
 
(i) Upon request from Host Agency, provide copies of as-built drawings to Host 
Agency. Construction or installation or communication systems shall not cause 
interference with communication systems or equipment already on the site and the 
parties shall work together to ensure all communication systems work without 
interference. 
(j) Obtain approval from Host Agency before making any changes (with the exception 
of normal maintenance and upkeep) to the equipment installed at the sites as 
described in the SSSAs.

interference) caused by Benefiting Agency’s equipment. Host Agency will notify 
Benefiting Agency of any adverse effects reported to it by external entities. 
 
(l) Use the site solely for communication systems for public safety and welfare and 
those uses necessary to operate such communication systems. This Agreement does 
not expressly or impliedly authorize the Benefiting Agency to install additional 
communication systems on the sites outside of any replacement/upgrade 
components to its communication systems already in place on a site pursuant to an 
SSSA or any amendment thereto.  Should additional communication systems need
