Request/Subject
Intergovernmental Agreement No. C-50-19--3-00 between Maricopa County and Gila County regarding the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office Basic Training Academy.
Background Information
The Gila County Sheriff's Office (GCSO) does not have its own academy and is required to train its Deputy Recruits according to the State of Arizona Peace Officers Standards Training (AZPOST). The GCSO contacts agencies as needed throughout the State that operate Basic Training Academies and requests seats for GCSO Deputy Recruits to attend. The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) Basic Training Academy is one that is utilized as needed by  GCSO Deputy Recruits when space is available. This agreement outlines the responsibilities of MCSO and GCSO regarding the use of the MCSO Basic Training Academy.

The Gila County Board of Supervisors approved Intergovernmental Agreement No. C-50-16-008-M-00 on November 17, 2015, for a performance period of June 29, 2015, through June 30, 2018.
Evaluation
The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) responsibilities: will provide training space, when available, for GCSO recruit officers to attend scheduled Basic Training Academies; has sole discretion to decide whether GCSO recruits maintain the academic standings to continue in the academy; has sole discretion to dismiss any recruit for training, academic, ethical or disciplinary standards applicable too all police academy participants; will provide GCSO with training records of each recruit; 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; and, will treat GCSO recruits in the same manner as MCSO recruits for purposes of training, academics, ethics and discipline. Gila County Sheriff's Office (GCSO) responsibilities: agrees to provide instructors or administrative assistance to the MCSO Academy, upon request; agrees to pay $500 per registrant; understands and agrees that the curriculum will consist of the standard MCSO training program, although some facilitation of cross training on GCSO material may occur, the focus shall be MCSO policies and procedures; and, will provide statutory worker's compensation insurance, salary, benefits, weapons, ammunitions and uniforms.
Conclusion

This Intergovernmental Agreement may be renewed for one additional three-year period upon Board of Supervisors' approval.
