Consideration and Adoption of Resolution No. 2020-12:  A resolution of the Flagstaff City Council, approving an Intergovernmental Agreement between the Coconino County Community College District and the City of Flagstaff to share fire training and education resources.

Coconino Community College (CCC) and the City have an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) which allows the sharing of resources such as the Flagstaff Fire Training Center and class room facilities at CCC. The IGA is amended to improve sharing of resources between the City and the CCC Fire and EMS program. The revisions allow for a more efficient management of shared resources and reduced expenses. Additionally, CCC makes available to the Flagstaff Fire Department, and our regional partners, classroom training and software technology, and a light and breathing air trailer in support of fire and emergency incidents in the Greater Flagstaff Region. Flagstaff Fire Department agrees to appropriately house and maintain the trailer.

Minimal annual maintenance of the light and breathing air trailer that we have been doing since 2015.

None

Council Goals:
Attract and retain quality staff
- Invest in employee training

Regional Plan:
Goal PF.3. Provide high-quality emergency response and public safety services including law enforcement, fire, medical and ambulance transport services.

Yes. Council approved this IGA on January 5, 2011 and then again with updates on March 3, 2015.

Council may elect to:
- Approve the proposed IGA
- Amend the proposed IGA
- Disapprove the IGA

The Fire Department and CCC have been actively working together for joint training purposes at this facility since it was built in 2008. Dozens of current firefighters were certified through CCC and the use of the FFD training center to be qualified for hiring in the Greater Flagstaff Region.

Great partnership between the City of Flagstaff and one of our local educational partners.

Helps with meeting council goals and community partnering.
