Request/Subject

Adopt Resolution No. 21-05-05 authorizing the Board Chairman to sign Intergovernmental Agreement No. IGA 20-0008060-I with the Arizona Department of Transportation for the construction of a bridge across Tonto Creek in Tonto Basin, AZ.

Background Information

Gila County received a 2020 BUILD Grant from the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) for the construction of a bridge across Tonto Creek in Tonto Basin. The funds are available to Gila County either directly from USDOT or as a pass-through from USDOT to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). Due to the experience needed to manage federal funds, Gila County asked ADOT to manage the project. ADOT agreed and this IGA will permit ADOT to manage the project on behalf of Gila County.

Evaluation

ADOT has the experience and ability to manage the project on behalf of Gila County.

Conclusion

It is in the best interest of Gila County to have ADOT manage the project.

Recommendation

The Public Works Department Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors adopt Resolution No. 21-05-05 authorizing the Board Chairman to sign IGA 20-0008060-I with the Arizona Department of Transportation for the construction of a bridge across Tonto Creek in Tonto Basin, Arizona.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to adopt Resolution No. 21-05-05 which authorizes the execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA 20-0008060-I) between Gila County and the State of Arizona, Department of Transportation, to construct a bridge across Tonto Creek in Tonto Basin, Arizona.
