TITLE
The Mayor and City Council shall discuss and take action to approve an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the City of Mesa ("Mesa"), an Arizona municipal corporation, to conduct joint fire service training and allow firefighter recruits to attend and participate in fire service training hosted by Mesa to be paid from the Fire Department, Education and Training (10022525-55570). Discussion and action.
AGENDA ITEM DESCRIPTION
The City Council shall discuss and possibly approve an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the City of Mesa. The City of Maricopa will pay the amount identified in the Mesa Fire and Medical Department Fire Service Training Menu, Exhibit A, for each employee that attends training. The cost is $3,500 per recruit until July 2024. $4,500 per recruit after July 2024. This amount may be adjusted at the discretion of Mesa based on the contribution to training through the provision of non-monetary resources such as facilities, equipment, or personnel, recruit training officers, and other factors listed for non-monetary resources. If a participating regional City sends a Recruit Training Officer for the length of the academy the price for up to 2 recruits will be waived. Mesa will provide original training records for personnel upon the completion of any training provided under this Agreement, upon completion of a fire recruit academy being provided under this Agreement, or upon termination of the employees attendance in the training program. Mesa will maintain records of lesson plans, class rosters, and other documentation common to the class as required by law. Fire service standards, or best practices require or make reasonable and prudent the preservation of such information as required by law.
