Information

Request/Subject

Approval of Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) No. 071918 with the Town of Hayden-Building and Zoning Review and Inspection Services

Background Information

The Town does not have building or zoning inspectors on staff. In order to comply with state statutes and the Town’s ordinances, in regard to fire, health and life safety, the Town requires technical assistance in the areas of inspections and code compliance. The Gila County Community Development Division shall provide field inspections and reports to ensure compliance with state statutes and the Town’s ordinances. The Town shall compensate the County for services provided at the rate of $50 per inspection or $50 per hour for services rendered.

Evaluation

The Gila County Community Development Division has trained personnel with inspection and code compliance experience whereas the Town does not. The Town is very interested in pursuing code compliance violations and with the assistance of the County, a determination can be made if there is actually a violation. The Town will then pursue enforcement of the confirmed violations.

Conclusion

The approval of this IGA will be a benefit to the Town of Hayden since the County has the resources and expertise in inspections and code compliance that the Town does not. The added workload to the staff of Community Development is expected to be minimal. Staff recommends approval of this IGA.

Recommendation

The Community Development Division Director recommends the approval of Intergovernmental Agreement No. 071918 with the Town of Hayden-Building and Zoning Review and Inspection Services.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to approve Intergovernmental Agreement No. 071918 with the Town of Hayden-Building and Zoning Review and Inspection Services on an as needed basis for the period of one calendar year after its execution, with up to three additional one-year extensions by mutual agreement of the parties.
