Motion to elect Supervisor Hickman as the 2020 Chairman of the Board of Supervisors by Supervisor Chucri, seconded by Supervisor Sellers Ayes: Sellers, Chucri, Gates, Hickman, Gallardo Chairman Hickman took the Chairman’s seat and commented on Supervisor Gates’ fantastic job over the previous year as Chairman of the Board. There were some difficult things to deal with over the past year, but Supervisor Gates navigated the year so well. In addition, the Board appointed a new County Attorney. In appreciation, Chairman Hickman presented Supervisor Gates with a plaque and photos were taken of the presentation. Chariman Hickman introduced his family members who were in attendance – his wife, Jennifer; his mother-in-law, Veronica; his children, Benton and Marecella; his mother, Gertie; and his 91-year-old father, Bill Hickman. Also attending was his sister-in-law, Katrina and his goddaughter, Sienna. Chairman Hickman began his speech by noting that new partnerships with get their first tests, building projects started some years ago will get final approval, there are elections to run and budgets to complete as well as deal with some issues noted in the newspaper. Formal Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 08, 2020 Page 3 of 26 Although much has changed since his first Chairmanship, the Chairman stated that the mission would be the same – to focus on the County mandates, do them well and protect and serve the county taxpayers. As a county government, our job is not to solve every problem or be involved in every issue; it’s to bring stability to a diverse and dynamic region. It’s to make this a place where prosperity lasts and democracy flourishes. Each individual needs to have an opportunity to create a high-quality life knowing that their government is spending their money on mandated services that enhance health, safety and give residents a voice in the process. We will have plenty of opportunities to live those values in the coming years. I couldn’t ask for better colleagues to serve alongside me. The Chairman then spoke to each of the other Supervisors. To Supervisor Gates: Thank you for your leadership over the past year. 2019 wasn't the easiest year for Maricopa County, but as Chairman, you handled it with grace and a steady hand. I'm grateful for the clarity that you bring to this board and for your work in spearheading the smart region consortium, a public-private partnership which connects participating governments with technology-based innovations. I believe this collaboration will result in a Maricopa County that is better positioned for the future with more opportunities, more connections and better service for residents. To Supervisor Sellers: You have made it clear that we have appointed the right person to represent District 1. Your energy and passion for the region are apparent on your social media. You are a tireless champion, not just for the East Valley, but for the entire County. Thank you for getting out there and showing everybody who you are and what you do for the County. We will look to your expertise regarding transportation and infrastructure in the coming year as the region considers what a new proposition 400 might look like. As believers in a comprehensive transportation plan, you and I know that it's essential to the success and the economic vitality of our region, and I would like you to be the Vice Chairman for the Board of Supervisors. Supervisor Chucri: As the longest serving member of this board you have helped transform how the county serves its residents by bringing a business mindset to government. Your connections in the community and nationally mean you don't just talk about innovation you bring us examples of how to do it and it benefits us all. Thank you for your continued support. Supervisor Gallardo, your experience and perspective makes us a better and more balanced Board. You are the current president-elect and future president of the County Supervisors Association which is extremely important role to this County. That is the interface we have with the rural counties, and you know how important that is. You've been working hard at it already; you're going to be a fantastic CSA president. You're the only board member who has served at the legislature, and the only one with elections experience. Your elections expertise in particular will be most valuable this year as this Board now overseas day-of-election activities. The Chairman then turned to the topic of Elections commenting that this is probably the most important focus for the Board this year. The first short term goal in 2020 is to successfully conduct a fantastic Presidential Preference Election on March 17. The plan is to communicate early and often to the voters that we are making early voting available for nearly one month prior to the election at 40 different locations. This increases the number of Election Day polling places to 220 and reduces peak wait times to less than 30 minutes per voter by maximizing technology and staff. Citizens can read more about the plan by at maricopa.gov/2020 PPEPlan. Formal Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 08, 2020 Page 4 of 26 Many voters already have their eyes on the primary election in August and the general in November. This Board partnered with the Recorder’s Office last year to ensure bipartisan oversight of elections not seen in Maricopa County in more than 50 years. In addition, the Board invested over $15,000,000 to make sure we have the right personnel and updated equipment. The integrity and success of our elections is my number one priority in 2020 and I would like to acknowledge two people who will be integral to that success: Scott Jarrett the Director of Election Day and Emergency Voting. Scott reports directly to the Board. The other person is Rey Valenzuela who is the Director of Election Service and Early Voting. Rey reports to the Recorder. Both gentlemen have worked with the Board and the Recorder over the last couple of years to create a very collaborative model for election processes in Maricopa County. All this work is going to pay off for the County voter. The plans put into place for the Presidential Preference election will serve as a template for the planning and collaboration that must occur in order to deliver the elections our residents expect and deserve. We will again need an army of volunteers and poll workers to make sure voters have a great voting experience. Voting is not unlike jury duty. It is our civic duty to help make sure democracy continues. Anyone can do it – whether it's setting up a polling place prior to the election or working as a poll worker on Election Day. To assist in this effort, I will be asking members of our talented County workforce to fill some of those crucial positions. Last election we had over 350 County employees step up for the 2018 General Election. With the success of our new 13K program, I expect this number to be even greater this year. Employees who want to sign up now can get in touch with our Volunteer 13K program. The Chairman spoke about how well the plan to use County employees worked in 2018. The next topic to be addressed was Government Operations. The Chairman commented that all the Supervisors are committed to running a lean and efficient government. To do this our economy depends on a strong dollar. Excessive government taxation and spending reduces the value of that dollar. One way to limit spending is by limiting County operations to what is in state law. The Board rarely steps out of the statutory mandates, so if we do, we need to make sure we bring value. Whether it's County regional parks, workforce development or animal control we need to bring true vision, and make sure we are the ones defining success. With animal care and control we need to ask ourselves if we are the correct or only form of government to best fill this space. If the answer is yes, then let us truly bring our business mindset to this issue and not let emotions steer this conversation. We are saving more than 95% of the pets that come through our shelters, but in a growing cost to taxpayers. Is this sustainable? We have benchmarked ourselves against other jurisdictions and examined best practices. Now we need to find the right approach for our unique situation. Our nonprofits and cities have a stake in animal care and control as well. We should expand and leverage those partners and ensure everyone in the community is doing their fair share. We owe it to ourselves and the taxpayers. While regional parks are not a mandated service of County government, we can see they add significant value to the quality of life and to the economy of our great County. The recent study of our parks economic impact conducted by ASU found that every dollar invested in the County park system returns $1.42 in economic impact to the region. Formal Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 08, 2020 Page 5 of 26 One investment I am excited about is the creation of the Vulture Mountain Regional Park. In 2019, we partnered with the Bureau of Land Management, and this very chamber signed the documents to acquire more than 1000 acres of land for County park development within the 71,000-acre Vulture Mountain Recreation Area. Phase one to four should begin this summer and will include all Park Road construction in partnership with McDot, as well as the installation of park utility infrastructure and sight grading. When the park is completed it will have the county's first formal off-highway vehicle recreation area and provide quality amenities and training opportunities for this popular sport. We anticipate Vulture Mountain Regional Park will be a huge boost for Wickenburg other West Valley communities, both in terms of the economy and quality of life. We have one of the largest and best-run park systems in the United States. This is no accident. I want to recognize the significant and lasting impact of County Supervisors who came before us. Supervisors in the 60’s realized the lasting value protecting our national heritage or natural heritage for future generations and began setting aside large regional parts to meet the needs of current and future generations. This is one reason why so many people want to live here. In keeping with their legacy, we too have a duty to provide natural places for our children and grandchildren as the County continues to grow and prosper. Andy Kunasek is here this morning. He has consistently been a leader in the development of the County park system. Andy showed true leadership in his work to develop the County trail system. County Parks and the accompanying Trail System is a solidly important function of County government. Thank you, Andy Kunasek for the hard work that you did in this arena which inspires us all to continue on this path. Another way we can create property that lasts is through a predictable, regulatory climate that promotes job creation and a healthy economy. During my first chairmanship in 2016 I asked for a moratorium on new government rules and regulations. The moratorium sends a message that government doesn't need to expand endlessly, that we can take a step back, work with businesses rather than against them, and that, in doing so, we can continue to protect public health, safety and the environment. This year I think we should reaffirm our commitment to improving the regulatory processes. I am asking my colleagues to stand with me again and vote for another moratorium. This is good for current and future residents, for business and for County government. I also want to take a look at the Clean Start Program. This is a program that was started in a previous year, and now we can look back and see the impact of this innovative program. This program provides a second chance to those involved in the criminal justice system. This is an issue my family is passionate about. In working with the Human Services Department’s Workforce Development Division, the County has implemented several new and innovative initiatives to help people find a way back to stability. In 2016, under my chairmanship we launched “Clean Start” which replaced paid county staff working in the commercial-style jail laundry with former inmates and probationers. We wanted to give them the opportunity to obtain work skills and behavioral training so they would be able to get jobs after incarceration. After an 18- month period, the Clean Start project served 156 offenders with medium to high risk of recidivism, and 67% of them successfully completed the training necessary for employment. I am hopeful that all 67% have jobs in this economy. The Clean Start Program has since evolved. In collaboration with the Sheriff’s Office, Adult Probation, and St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance Community Kitchen inmates learn culinary skills while in custody at the food factory for three weeks. They get paid work Formal Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 08, 2020 Page 6 of 26 experience while on probation. This is just one example. In total, we have been able to direct approximately one million dollars in federal workforce funds to these kinds of job- training efforts. This is an assistance to the individuals and the community. Fewer repeat offenders means lower jail costs. In addition, more people with jobs means a stronger economy. All of this leads to safer communities. I would also like to comment on the ITR and the 225 buildings. In 2020, we will officially open a new jail. The Intake Transfer and Release (ITR) facility on our Durango campus applied science and best practices so that Police Officers are able to get back on the streets faster, we can reduce the cost of transporting inmates and give people in custody a better chance at success upon release. The facility will have Courtrooms, physical and mental healthcare, holding facilities for shorter stays and more than 1000 beds for longer stays. The ITR is designed around the concept of efficiency and is built to serve our public safety needs for decades to come. Thanks to Sheriff Penzone and his leadership in all of the phases of building this facility. Another great facility opening this year is the redesigned building at 225 Madison. This building used to be a jail but instead of tearing it down at great cost to taxpayers and with a massive amount of waste to pour into a landfill, we have repurposed it as office space for the County Attorney’s Office. This also enables other County departments to move out of leases space and move to a central downtown location saving even more money. Prosecutors will also benefit from easier access to courts. I am proud to support both of these projects which were completed without taxpayer bonds. Also, I'm grateful for the vision of those who came before us in anticipating needs and focusing on long-term solutions. In conclusion, in 2020, I see a chance to build on the successes of the past decade, not by trying to do everything for everyone, but by trying to do a few important things very well. We will run successful elections; we will examine our mandates and make sure we are creating value for taxpayers in all we do; and we will look at ways to create prosperity that lasts. There are opportunities as wide-reaching as our landscape. Thanks again to my fellow board members for placing their trust in me as Chairman and indulging me with this time. I look forward to the challenges ahead, so let's get started on the rest of today's agenda. Thank you all for being here. After the Chairman’s speech the other Board members took a few moments to comment on Former Chairman Gates’ leadership and accomplishments during 2019. Supervisor Gallardo commented on the stellar job that Supervisor Gates did in negotiating an agreement with the Recorder to document a new process for election in Maricopa County. He pointed to a number of meetings that he attended with Supervisor Gates during that process and complemented him on his negotiating skills. He also made note of the fact that having an attorney at the helm was exactly the right thing for the particular issues that had arisen during the previous year including the process and appointment of the new County Attorney. In turn, Supervisor Gates commented that he was thankful that Supervisor Gallardo had brought to the table his previous experience in working in the elections department. This knowledge was invaluable as they created the new working document for the entire elections process. He also made note of the fact that even though the Board member run on a partisan basis, they truly work together on issues that come before the Board. He thanked Supervisor Gallardo for his diligent work on the election documents. Supervisor Sellers also thanked Supervisor Gates for his leadership as Chairman during the previous year. He thanked the entire Board for helping him, as the newest member, to acclimate to his position on the Board. Although he had served on a city council for 8 Formal Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 08, 2020 Page 7 of 26 years, he explained that the County Board had wider influence and responsibilities. He is looking forward to working with Chairman Hickman and moving the County forward as a Smart Region. Supervisor Chucri echoed the comments of others in congratulating and thanking Supervisor Gates for his leadership and accomplishments during the past year. He also complemented Chairman Hickman for the vision he has set for the coming year. He reminded the Chairman of a situation they had all worked on a few years prior in the Cave Creek area. Although it was a complicated situation, they were able to bring about a satisfactory resolve. A constituent thanked him and commented “so now our work is done.” Supervisor Chucri responded that no, this is the business mindset that the Board is bringing to all of the areas in County government. He complemented Chairman Hickman on his speech noting that the ideas and issues that he had highlighted are testimonies to that ongoing effort at the County. Chairman Hickman also commented on Supervisor Gates leadership and direction during the past year. There were a number of unexpected events during the year, but Supervisor Gates made sure that decisions were not rushed, but rather thoughtfully approached, giving ample time to fully examine the issues at hand. This approach allowed the Board often to take the emotion out of the process and the final decision. Finally, Supervisors Gates responded to several of the comments from the other Board members. To Chairman Hickman he said how much he appreciated the reminder of the great work by volunteers at the County. To Supervisor Chucri he commented that he was thankful that he never allowed the Board to “settle,” and be mindful of the fact that Maricopa is the fastest growing County. There is also the push, whatever the project or issue at hand, that Maricopa needs to be the “best in class.” This isn’t just a phrase, it is a purposeful goal. In addition, to Supervisor Sellers he stated that the Board is thrilled to have him as a colleague, bringing his tremendous community activism to the job. He also characterized Supervisor Sellers as a visionary, pushing forward for autonomous vehicles, smart cities and smart regions and always striving for innovative ideas and solutions. PRESENTATION TO SHELBY SCHARBACH Chairman Hickman introduced the next item which is a presentation to Shelby Scharbach upon her retirement. Ms. Scharbach started career in the Maricopa County Finance Department in 1993, and was appointed Chief Financial Officer in 2009. Then, in 2012, Ms. Scharbach was appointed Assistant County Manager at which time she took over the management and oversight of several County departments. In 2016, Shelby received the Chief Financial Officer of the Year award from the Phoenix Business Journal. During her tenure with the County, Shelby served on number of boards including serving as the Executive Director of the Industrial Development Authority which she will continue to do after her retirement. The Chairman congratulated Ms. Scharbach on her retirement and thanked her for her service over those many years. He then presented her with a crystal clock and pictures were taken with the board. Supervisor Chucri commented on Ms. Scharbach’s many contributions to the County. He stated that she was the consummate CFO in all of the true sense of the title. He said that similar to the she MASH, Shelby was like Radar. She can answer every question, and her contributions to Maricopa County are simply too numerous to mention. She never looks at the clock. She embraced the philosophy of the new Board Formal Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 08, 2020 Page 8 of 26 when we came on, and all of these attributes contribute to her success. We are very fortunate that Shelby will continue as the Executive Director of the IDA. She will truly be missed here at Maricopa County. Supervisor Sellers also thanked Ms. Scharbach for her years of service to the County. He also wanted to mention that she would continue to serve on the Maricopa County Parks board representing his district. Supervisor Gallardo noted that when he came to the County that Ms. Scharbach was always ready to assist with any questions that he or his staff had as they became oriented to the various aspects of County business. He thanked her for her friendship. Supervisor Gates said that he echoed the previous comments and noted that the CFO is such an important position especially in a County of this size. He said that she lived the position and the responsibilities every day. The work of the IDA is such an important function, especially for economic development, and he is so glad she will be continuing in that role.

He is continuing to educate the community on all of the plans for these elections, including a meeting he would be attending on the upcoming Saturday in downtown Phoenix. He has also been working with the Spanish media to showcase the great work that Maricopa County does every day. Supervisor Gates thanked the Chairman for his speech and the direction he has laid out for the coming year. He thanked his staff, Laura Etter and Zach Shira as they worked with all of the Offices during the year and a number of important issues. He renewed his commitment to travel to Desert Hills and the New River area to meet with and listen to constituents. He mentioned it would be important to have legislators visit and view the new equipment and plans for the upcoming elections. He also thanked Ms. Rich for her leadership throughout the year. Supervisor Chucri also thanked the Chairman for the issues that he addressed in his speech, and thanked him for the Resolution to continue the moratorium through 2021. He stated that he was looking forward to working with constituents in the coming year on all issues related to elections and expressed his gratitude to all the citizens that had worked on some of the election issues already. Supervisor Sellers again thanked the Board members for welcoming him and for the tremendous mentorship they have provided during his time so far on the Board. County Manager, Joy Rich, thanked Shelby Scharbach as she has been a “remarkable member of the management team.” She commented that Ms. Scharbach has always been about the mission of the county and has been patient in teaching others about some of the aspects related to financial stability.
