The Graham County Board of suervisors voted Monday to approve intergovernmental agreements with those agencies prior to presenting checks. The agencies that receive checks are: Mt. Graham Safe House, Easter Seals Blake Foundation, Graham County Rehabilitation Center and SouthEastern Arizona Community Action Programs, known as SEACAP.
According to the agreements, each of the agencies must also provide funds and in-kind services to supplement the transportation services paid for with LTAF money.
In an unrelated money matter, the supervisors approved removing two land parcels from the property tax rolls. County Treasurer Jean Reynolds said the two parcels — 104-39-053A and 106-10-040A — were assessed in error. The total amount of money to be abated is $981.25.
In other business, the supervisors voted to refer a claim filed against Graham County by Cable One to the office of Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard. Cable One contends in its suit that several Arizona counties, including Graham and Greenlee, erred in assessing the communications company's full-cash value, which is one of the components used in calculating property tax.
County Manager Terry Cooper said the other counties — Cochise, Coconino, Gila, Maricopa, Navajo and Yavapai — are all being represented by the Attorney General's Office in the complaint.
In another claim against the county, Rudolph Rodriguez is seeking damages to his pickup truck that were allegedly caused when he passed a grader on Powerline Road and struck a boulder Jan. 6. Damage to the truck is estimated at $860.
The supervisors voted to send the complaint to the county's insurance pool.
