Title

Authorization to Enter Into an Agreement with Maricopa County for Facility Access and Usage of Maricopa County Jail Facility (Ordinance S-51340) - District 8

 

Description

Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to allow the Phoenix Police Department to enter into an agreement with Maricopa County to use the County's facility for Phoenix officers to complete booking paperwork. There is no financial impact for this agreement.

 

Report

Summary

The Phoenix Police Department (PPD) processes subjects detained by police officers in the Phoenix Police Centralized Booking facility. However, the facility does not have the space needed to hold a large number of subjects being processed at the same time when the need arises. To facilitate the proper processing when a large number of subjects are brought in at the same time, and to ensure the safety of those being processed and the officer's safety, the County will allow PPD officers to enter and use the 4th Avenue Jail for the purpose of holding and processing subjects on occasion, when needed.

 

Contract Term

The agreement will commence on the County's effective date and be in effect for one year.

 

Financial Impact

There is no financial impact for the short-term operational use of their facility to process subjects when the Phoenix facility does not provide adequate space.
