Information

Request/Subject

Adoption of Resolution No. 24-04-04, which authorizes the execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement (No. IGA 24-0009581-I) between Gila County and the State of Arizona, acting by and through the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) for the Golden Hill Road Sidewalk-Final Phase project.

Background Information

On December 4, 2023, ADOT reviewed and approved the Golden Hill Road Sidewalk-Final Phase project for award through the Transportation Alternatives Program Funding with a local match of 5.7%. After initiation of the project, an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) was drafted between ADOT and Gila County for approval by both entities for the pursuit of completing this project.

Evaluation

After Gila County Engineering and legal staff reviewed the proposed IGA, adoption of this resolution, which authorizes the execution of this IGA will be necessary for the Golden Hill Road Sidewalk project's final phase to continue moving forward.

Conclusion

Through the use of transportation alternative funds program Gila County will be able to finish the Golden Hill Road Sidewalk-Final Phase project with minimal financial impact to Gila County. Without the mutual agreement between ADOT and Gila County through this IGA, the Golden Hill Road Sidewalk-Final Phase project can not proceed and Gila County would end up fronting the entire cost of that project.

Recommendation

It is the recommendation of the Public Works Department Director and Engineering staff that the Board approve an IGA (No. IGA 24-0009581-I) between Gila County and the State of Arizona, acting by and through the Arizona Department of Transportation.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to adopt Resolution No. 24-04-04, which authorizes the execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement (No. IGA 24-0009581-I) between Gila County and the State of Arizona, acting by and through the Arizona Department of Transportation, for the Golden Hill Road Sidewalk-Final Phase project.
