INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN  
MARICOPA COUNTY and COCONINO COUNTY 
REGARDING MARICOPA COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE  
BASIC TRAINING ACADEMY 
C-50-20-____-3-00 
 
 
This INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT (IGA) is entered into by and between MARICOPA 
COUNTY, a political subdivision of the State of Arizona on behalf of the SHERIFF’S OFFICE, 
“MCSO,” and the COCONINO COUNTY, a political subdivision of the State of Arizona on behalf of 
the SHERIFF’S OFFICE, “CCSO,” collectively referred to as the Parties.  Under A.R.S. § 11-952, 
which authorizes public agencies to enter into Intergovernmental Agreements, the Parties enter 
into this IGA regarding CCSO’s participation in MCSO’s Sworn Basic Training Academy. 
 
Whereas MCSO offers Sworn Officer Basic Training Academies on an as-needed basis and 
generally has space for additional participants and  
 
Whereas the CCSO does not have its own training academy and its sworn employee recruits are 
required to be trained according to the State of Arizona Peace Officer Standard Training (AZPOST). 
 
Therefore, Maricopa County on behalf of the MCSO and Coconino County on behalf of the CCSO 
enter into the following Agreement effective May 15, 2020 through June 30, 2022, the Initial Term, 
upon Maricopa County Board of Supervisor approval.

Will provide training space as available for CCSO recruit officers to attend 
scheduled Sworn Basic Training Academies. 
  
2.

maintain the academic standings necessary to continue in the Academy class.   
 
3. 
Retains the right, in its sole discretion, to dismiss any recruit for training, academic, 
ethical or disciplinary standards applicable to all sworn officer training academy 
participants.  
 
4. 
Will provide CCSO original individual training records for each CCSO recruit upon 
completion of the MCSO Academy or termination of the recruit’s attendance at the 
MCSO Academy.  MCSO will maintain records of lesson plans, class rosters, and 
other documentation common to the class as a whole consistent with the 
requirements of State law.   
 
5. 
Will treat CCSO recruits in the same manner as MCSO recruits for purposes of 
training, academics, ethics and discipline.    
 
6. 
Will require CCSO to investigate CCSO recruits should a situation arise for an 
Internal Affairs Investigation concerning the actions of a CCSO recruit. 
 
7. 
Will bill CCSO Department a non-refundable registration in the amount of $500, 
payable to Maricopa County, per CCSO registrant after the first full day of any 
academy class that begins prior to June 30, 2020 and $750 per registrant for any 
academy class that begins July 1, 2020 and after.

The CCSO: 
 
 
1. 
Understands and agrees that the curriculum will consist of the standard
