CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION: Approving Resolution 2026-03,an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the Flood Control District of Maricopa County (FCDMC), to accept grant funds for the completed design and construction of drainage improvements at Love Court.
Project Background and PurposeThe Love Court Drainage Improvements Project, located within the Courtside Villas development, was initiated to address deficiencies in an existing stormwater system. Specifically, approximately 130 linear feet of 24-inch corrugated metal pipe (CMP) had reached the end of its service life and required rehabilitation to maintain system functionality and reduce the risk of failure.Project ScopeThe project scope included the removal and replacement of an existing catch basin, installation of a cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) liner within the existing storm drain pipe, and construction of a temporary access road to facilitate construction activities.Design and ConstructionDesign of the project was completed in March 2025. Following a public bidding process, construction was completed in June 2025.Funding and Grant ReimbursementIn March 2025, Town staff submitted an application to the Flood Control District of Maricopa County (FCDMC) under its Small Project Assistance Program, seeking grant funding to offset design and construction costs.Although the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) reflects a total project cost of $145,000 based on the estimate at the time of the original application, it authorizes reimbursement based on actual project costs. The final project cost was $155,849.12, which was fully funded by the Town in Fiscal Year 2025. The Town’s grant application was subsequently approved by FCDMC, with the program providing reimbursement of 75% of the final project cost, totaling $116,886.84. The Town’s remaining share of the project cost is $38,962.28.Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA)Approval of the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with FCDMC will authorize the Town to accept reimbursement funds based on the actual project cost, in the amount of $116,886.84. Upon receipt, these funds will be returned to the Town’s General Fund.A summary of the FCDMC Grant and Town share for this project is summarized below:DESIGN:FCDMC Funds @ 75% $8,910Town's match @ 25% $2,970Subtotal - Design $11,880CONSTRUCTION:FCDMC Funds @ 75% $107,976.84Town's match @ 25% $ 35,992.28Subtotal - Construction $143,969.12Estimated TOTAL Project Cost $155,849.12Total Estimated Town Funds $ 38,962.28Total FCDMC Grant Funds $116,886.84

CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION: Approving Resolution 2026-07, an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the City of Scottsdale, for use of their training facility.
The City of Scottsdale has recently completed construction of a new regional fire training facility. To expand training opportunities available to Fountain Hills Fire Department personnel, staff has negotiated an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) that would authorize the Department to utilize the facility for fire and emergency medical services training.Use of the Scottsdale training facility would provide the Fountain Hills Fire Department with access to enhanced training resources, specialized instructional environments, and additional opportunities to train alongside regional public safety partners. The agreement would also support participation in regional fire academy training for newly hired personnel, helping to ensure consistent training standards and preparedness across agencies.Entering into this IGA would further the Town’s commitment to maintaining a highly trained and operationally ready fire department while strengthening regional collaboration and resource sharing.
