Agenda Item _____________________ 
This Intergovernmental Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between the Flood Control 
District of Maricopa County, a political subdivision of the State of Arizona, acting by and through its Board of 
Directors (the “DISTRICT”), and the Town of Paradise Valley, a municipal corporation, acting by and through 
its Mayor and Town Council, (the “TOWN”).  The TOWN and the DISTRICT are collectively referred to as 
the “PROJECT PARTNERS” and individually as a “PROJECT PARTNER.” 
This Agreement shall become effective as of the date it has been executed by all PROJECT PARTNERS.  
STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION 
1. The DISTRICT is empowered by Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) § 48-3603, as amended, to enter into 
this Agreement and has authorized the undersigned to execute this Agreement on behalf of the DISTRICT. 
2. The TOWN is empowered by A.R.S. § 9-240(B) and A.R.S. § 11-952, as amended, to enter into this

BACKGROUND 
3. The Lower Indian Bend Wash Area Drainage Master Study/Plan (ADMS/P) was completed by the 
DISTRICT in December 2017.  The ADMS/P evaluated existing drainage structures, identified drainage 
problems, analyzed the extent of flooding, and developed alternative drainage solutions and a 
Recommended Drainage Master Plan (PLAN) was selected for the area.   
4. The Lower Indian Bend Wash watershed extends from Shea Boulevard to the north, Middle Indian Bend 
Wash to the east, Salt River to the south, and 56th Street to the west. 
5. The Mockingbird Lane Drainage Improvement Project (PROJECT) is one of the recommended structural 
drainage solutions to mitigate flooding hazards of the PLAN.  The PROJECT starts from 56th Street along 
Mockingbird Lane to Invergordon Road then heads north along Invergordon Road to outfall into Indian 
Bend Wash.

6. The PROJECT will provide 10-year flood protection to properties from 56th Street on the west, 
Invergordon Road on the east, Mockingbird Lane on the south, and Indian Bend Wash on the north. 
 
7. In October 2020, the TOWN submitted the PROJECT for consideration in the DISTRICT’s Fiscal Year 
2021/2022 Capital Improvements Program. 
 
8. On May 23, 2018, the Board of Directors of the DISTRICT adopted Resolution FCD 2018R007 (C-69-
18-036-6-00), authorizing the DISTRICT to cost-share in the PROJECT, and to negotiate 
Intergovernmental Agreements for the design, rights-of-way acquisitions, construction, construction 
management, and operation and maintenance of the PROJECT. 
 
9. On August 17, 2022, the Board of Directors of the DISTRICT Approve Amendment No.1 Resolution 
FCD 2018R007A to FCD2018R007 (C-69-18-036-6-00) for the Lower Indian Bend Wash Area Drainage 
Master Study/ Plan as the drainage mitigation plan for Lower Indian Bend Wash watershed.   
PURPOSE OF THE AGREEMENT

rights-of-way acquisitions, construction, utility relocations, construction management, and operation and 
maintenance of the PROJECT. 
TERMS OF AGREEMENT 
11. The estimated cost of the PROJECT is $7,000,000 (PROJECT COST).  This amount is based on the best

The PROJECT COST includes all expenses related to the design, rights-of-way acquisitions, utility 
relocations, construction, and construction management of the PROJECT, including but not 
limited to, obtaining United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Section 404 Permits 
including the mitigation efforts required by that permit process, and landscaping and aesthetic 
features in accordance with and not to exceed the DISTRICT’s Policy for the Aesthetic Treatment 
and Landscaping of Flood Control Projects.

Control Projects and are compatible with the PROJECT function, shall be funded solely by the 
TOWN. 
11.3 
Personnel and internal administrative costs of either PROJECT PARTNER, including costs 
associated with the issuance of PROJECT permits shall be funded by the respective PROJECT 
PARTNERS.

PARTNER assigned lead agency responsibility for a task shall inform the other PROJECT PARTNER of 
delays impacting this target completion date.

(50%) of the final disposition price at the time that the TOWN disposes of said land or releases said land

19. Each PROJECT PARTNER, and the PROJECT PARTNERS collectively, shall: 
19.1 
Comply with all federal, state, and local laws, regulations, ordinances, and resolutions applicable to 
the PROJECT or the conduct of the PROJECT PARTNERS and ensure adherence to all

19.3 
Provide any permit(s) required for the PROJECT at no cost to the PROJECT. 
19.4 
Following mutual written agreement of all PROJECT PARTNERS, be allowed to delegate its 
responsibilities under this Agreement to another party.  Any delegation, however, shall not relieve 
the delegating PROJECT PARTNER of its original responsibilities as defined in this Agreement.  
The use of a contractor to perform any services necessary to complete the Project as designed shall 
not be construed as being a delegation of responsibilities. 
19.5 
In the case of any dispute over any items in this Agreement, use their best efforts and enter into 
good faith negotiations to resolve the disputed matters.  However, this shall not limit the rights of 
the PROJECT PARTNERS to seek any remedies provided by law. 
19.6 
Take reasonable and necessary actions within its authority to ensure that only storm water is 
discharged into the PROJECT, and that such discharges into the PROJECT comply at the point

requirements, including any permit requirements. 
20. Each PROJECT PARTNER shall, as “Indemnitor,” to the extent permissible by law, indemnify, defend 
and hold harmless the other PROJECT PARTNER, as “Indemnitee”, including agents, officers, directors, 
and employees thereof, from and against any and all loss or expense incurred as a result of any claim or 
suit of any nature whatsoever, which arises out of any act or omission of the Indemnitor pursuant to this 
Agreement, including but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other expenses relating 
to the defense against claims or litigation, incurred by the Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the above, the 
Indemnitee shall be liable for its own negligence or wrongful acts as provided by law.  In no event shall the 
Indemnitor owe or be obligated to pay any amounts which the Indemnitee has not actually paid or has no 
actual obligation to pay.  In the event any agreement to pay to resolve issues of liability is not enforceable, 
or any agreement or settlement results in an actual obligation lower than the full amount of liability, the 
Indemnitor’s obligation to pay shall be limited to the amount the Indemnitee has paid or would be obligated 
to pay in the absence of any agreement to indemnify.  Should the TOWN offer to make or make the 
PROJECT available for any non-flood control uses, the TOWN shall, to the extent permissible by law, 
indemnify, defend, and save harmless the DISTRICT, including agents, officers, directors, and employees

thereof, from any and all loss or expense incurred as a result of any claim or suit resulting from that non-
flood control use without limitation.  Such indemnification obligation is intended to be a specific indemnity 
obligation rather than the general indemnity obligations set forth in this paragraph regarding all other types 
of claims or suits and shall include the obligation to provide reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and 
other expenses relating to the defense of such claims or litigation. 
21. All notices or demands upon any party to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered in person

Either PROJECT PARTNER may provide notice to the other that notices shall thereafter be sent to a 
different or additional address, and such notice shall not require any formal amendment process but shall

22. This Agreement shall expire either (a) ten (10) years from the date of its full execution or (b) upon closing 
of the PROJECT and after all funding obligations and reimbursements have been satisfied in accordance 
with this Agreement, whichever is the first to occur.  However, by mutual written agreement of all parties,
