Background 
Proposition 202, passed with the 2002 Gaming Compact in Arizona, directs participating Tribal Governments to share 12% of their gaming revenues with surrounding local governments.
Nonprofit organizations are only eligible to compete with a local government agreeing to serve as a pass-through agent. 
Discussion 
The SRP-MIC has elected to distribute a total of $1,695,000 to the city of Mesa and local non-profit organizations. SRP-MIC does not require a resolution of support for applicants to apply for funding. To disburse this funding to entities other than the City, the City must first enter into an Intergovernmental Agreement with SRP-MIC for the receipt and distribution of funds.  
Alternatives 
The only alternative to authorizing this Intergovernmental agreement is to deny it.
Such action would negate the grants to the entities, including $800,000 in funding for the City of Mesa Fire and Medical Department, Housing, Parks, Recreation & Facilities, Police Department, City Manager’s Department, Mesa Arts Center, i.d.e.a. Museum, Mesa K-Ready, and Mesa Counts on College and return the funds to the SRP-MIC for redistribution to other local governments of their choosing.  
 
Fiscal Impact 
  • Mesa Fire and Medical Department Immunization Program will receive a combined total of ($210,000).
  • Housing Department will receive ($75,600).
  • Parks, Recreation and Community Facilities will receive ($60,500).
  • Police Department will receive a combined total of ($232,900). 
  • City Manager’s Special Projects Office will receive ($50,000). 
  • Mesa Arts Center will receive ($54,000). 
  • i.d.e.a. Museum will receive ($45,000). 
  • Mesa K-Ready will receive ($45,000).
  • Mesa Counts on College will receive ($27,000). 
Overall operations and maintenance expenses will not increase as a result of this grant. 
The other pass-through grants will have a negligible fiscal impact in the form of administration costs to accept payment and cut checks for fund disbursement. 
 
Coordinated With 
Staff has coordinated with the Mesa Fire and Medical Department, Housing, Parks,
