Why it matters: Constables in Arizona are sworn peace officers who perform court-related duties, serve civil process and occasionally handle arrest warrants and evictions. The constable who spoke to the board explained that standardized duty equipment helps align constables with other local law-enforcement partners and ensures safety when they perform field duties across a very large precinct.

Discussion
Constable Gregory King (Precinct 3, Williams) described his coverage area as roughly 7,000 square miles, outlined the scope of constable duties and explained the grant would fund three Glock model 45 9mm pistols (standardized with other county law-enforcement), holsters, magazines, an ammunition pouch and weapon-mounted lights. He emphasized that the weapon-mounted light is intended to be used to identify targets in low-light scenarios when firearm deployment is a possibility and that constables also carry belt flashlights for general illumination. King said the quoted equipment and supplier are standard and practical for peace-officer work.

Formal action
The board approved acceptance of the grant and the associated budget amendment by voice vote. Board members thanked Constable King and his family for their public service.

What happens next
Constable offices will proceed with procurement and inventory per county purchasing rules and report back to county accounting as required by the grant terms.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Coconino County Board of Supervisors | Regular Meeting | April 8, 2025 | 6:00pm","oneSentenceSummary","The board approved a $2,298.35 state grant contract to purchase duty-weapon equipment for constables in Williams and Flagstaff after hearing an explanation of constables' duties and equipment standards.","taxTitle","Coconino County, Arizona","taxId",2575,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6610154,"County awards contract to update multi-jurisdictional hazard mitigation plan; NAU and Sedona to be added",134,4283000,4417000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2904744-e034acf03c21bff01457df9d5e2317f2&start=4283&end=4417","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2904744-e034acf03c21bff01457df9d5e2317f2/thumbnail_4283000.jpg","/articles/6610154/Coconino-County/Arizona/County-awards-contract-to-update-multi-jurisdictional-hazard-mitigation-plan-NAU-and-Sedona-to-be-added","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6610154-d2ea144cb7bb06c3f870979e5c3e975d/orig.mp4?Expires=1770798897&Signature=MM54JpNP38yh~904avYkqXAg4JP0l0-ko4okKEFWT25U-R8ZXxXFaBGsPvZ4NQgBvDPAViXzQiEX5M9HV2PYwtIyT9xb7terd8tSuodoUWNo2Kpt5yFWxb4H3dLvV-HKDZfgWu0BmUMkVM8G1HesYRivIdSUphW69NQrXPLmzCYDr7wmM7zp1yJHg-qme23z7FaTfcsWtVfK6P1jq4GUoee-F06woKkx93vbAIFfFRI1yx9bmUIiDV3IHbNDjU69WR3WH1wNykC0UtOcnAAs6x8IwXjp2pM1Z2mO91phjagaaywNUQ6nWJYM2Y0sPFXa1tFUo0-O~b0QDttAEnzPtg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Coconino County Board of Supervisors on April 8 approved a contract with Emergency Management Partners LLC to develop the county's next multi-jurisdictional hazard mitigation plan, with a contract amount not to exceed $100,000 funded by the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) 2023 grant.

Why it matters: FEMA requires counties to update hazard mitigation plans every five years to remain eligible for certain mitigation funding. The county update will incorporate municipal partners and two additional jurisdictions not always included in the countywide plan: Northern Arizona University and the City of Sedona.

What the project will do
Emergency Management staff told the board the plan update process typically requires about 16 months. Staff said the update will assess hazards by established indices and work with municipal and community partners to create mitigation strategies for priority hazards. The consultant, Emergency Management Partners, has worked with county emergency management on prior planning and operations documents and will lead community engagement with jurisdictions and stakeholders across the county.

Board comment and action
Supervisor Lena Fowler, who pulled the item for a brief discussion, thanked emergency management staff and described recent work with the City of Page on their emergency operations plan. The board approved the contract on a voice vote; staff said the completed plan will be returned to the board when finished.

Next steps
Emergency Management will begin jurisdictional outreach and stakeholder engagement and return the final updated plan to the board upon completion for FEMA submission.","Coconino County approved a contract with Emergency Management Partners LLC (not to exceed $100,000, BRIC funds) to update its FEMA-required hazard mitigation plan; the update will involve municipalities, add Northern Arizona University and the City of Sedona, and is expected to take about 16 months.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6610159,"Board proclaims May as Treatment Court Month, hears supporters cite cost savings and graduations",1339,3525000,4864000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2904744-e034acf03c21bff01457df9d5e2317f2&start=3525&end=4864","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2904744-e034acf03c21bff01457df9d5e2317f2/thumbnail_3525000.jpg","/articles/6610159/Coconino-County/Arizona/Board-proclaims-May-as-Treatment-Court-Month-hears-supporters-cite-cost-savings-and-graduations","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6610159-d633fc3161af9f91cf14bd5a0757516e/orig.mp4?Expires=1770798897&Signature=UscZ1m-89SOTD~OuthMG5wWcBjQwn~mVnYuJU6jp5zQXwjX85sCi2trMzbDrbHSOv6cK5gak~LKSJArqkwDlF1thHw9VVsn~zBx6a8Q9uEXUWasssf~NuGZG9MdqY43ZWrpFTFVmG2pTLKDfCO8ZQrOJlVvDjdME7X3rrg5Bd~47o651jsVLIJt8Vp8m8ACezvVX198LYXldVVIovniB~FsrNafOHVQU8NQN1eB1YHTG2alJbbCA-q6SB0bPxmDqYiMS-IagjittoBvT6KKf1r0og03GiwiHhIAMAGFiLSQeKYtKvs0JBcOVSXij5LmRN-jLq6OMVXz5TArwaYM9wA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Coconino County Board of Supervisors on April 8 proclaimed May 2025 as Treatment Court Month and heard testimony from court staff and supervisors on the impact of specialty courts in the county.

Why it matters: County officials described treatment and specialty courts as an alternative to incarceration that both improves participant outcomes and saves public funds. Court staff provided figures for the board showing lower per-person costs for therapeutic court services compared with incarceration.

Court staff presentation and board discussion
Recovery-court and mental-health court staff read the proclamation and described the county's network of specialty courts, including Recovery Court, Veterans Court, Mental Health Court, Family Treatment Court, and Page Therapeutic Court. Court presenters said treatment courts combine accountability and evidence-based services, and the staff memo cited an average taxpayer savings of about $65,000 for every person served annually, with therapeutic-court services averaged at roughly $6,000 per person.

Supervisor comments emphasized the human and fiscal impacts. Supervisor Lena Fowler and others described attendance at recent graduations and highlighted partnerships among the judiciary, county attorney, sheriff, and community providers. Fowler and other supervisors said specialty courts produce positive ripple effects for families and communities and cited the graduation events as examples of outcomes the county can point to. Court staff announced open graduation ceremonies (dates provided in the staff presentation) and noted continuing efforts to expand culturally appropriate supports, including Indigenous initiatives through the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council.

Formal action
The board approved the proclamation by voice vote. Staff noted two upcoming graduations (a Mental Health Court graduation and a Recovery Court graduation) and described ongoing interagency coordination.

What happens next
Superior Court staff and the recovery court coordinator will continue holding publicly announced graduations and outreach events and will report program updates to the board as required.","The board approved a proclamation recognizing Treatment Court Month in May and heard multiple supervisors and court staff highlight specialty courts' role in diversion, reported local cost savings per participant, and upcoming graduations.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6610164,"Coconino County supervisors approve a slate of proclamations and several consent items; two consent items pulled",2467,816000,3283000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2904744-e034acf03c21bff01457df9d5e2317f2&start=816&end=3283","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2904744-e034acf03c21bff01457df9d5e2317f2/thumbnail_816000.jpg","/articles/6610164/Coconino-County/Arizona/Coconino-County-supervisors-approve-a-slate-of-proclamations-and-several-consent-items-two-consent-items-pulled","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6610164-6b276d5e6da5acd2c3200f92f75ecf34/orig.mp4?Expires=1770798897&Signature=kDNrpg1IjbduY-WqUKx5wPjj4mF7ETBD2k464ReBvJfrEIl9Av5XJhMq0v9O2Y9ZqjpAAzGZN1UGRgWRuyKaN2TcZoY2NuIJk7idc8MZD-rrbuBzMSKIqzIVfCR0yC-uP0CdViTKoJnC3ULe03yYS~bXEdPEyR9xi7fUJ~kKAC0MQnNtTZuAt6NDbaQzXiFzqTjNnFIagtytq9rPaVvJWQZkG3F~jFIdBQ655OXDhJQtbSegBHzgp96vmEhgi-OW~bAlIx48tTQZf5fYQg-j3YJcHKL~85kJ05aaSZjAosP0yLAq4iAMmvCynvIP7oiB57wbxu6lEaPLLHqmWJul7A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Coconino County Board of Supervisors on April 8 approved a set of ceremonial proclamations and a number of routine consent items, and removed two consent items from tonight's agenda for later consideration.

The board voted to approve proclamations recognizing International Dark Sky Week (April 21–27, 2025), April 2025 as Earth Month, April 2025 as National County Government Month, May 1, 2025 as Law Day, May 2025 as Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and May 2025 as Treatment Court Month. The proclamations were read into the record by staff and community partners and carried on voice votes after motions on each item.

Why it matters: Proclamations are symbolic actions but reflect county priorities and longstanding partnerships — for example, the Dark Sky proclamation highlights Coconino County’s relationship with Flagstaff-area observatories and tourism, while the Treatment Court proclamation emphasized local specialty court programs and cited local cost-savings figures provided to the board.

Key consent votes and other actions
- A funding agreement with the Boys & Girls Club of Flagstaff: $3,000 total ($1,500 from District 1 community initiative funds and $1,500 from District 2) for a youth leadership program, term through 06/30/2025. Approved by voice vote.
- Acceptance of a FY2025 grant (Cycle 38) for the drug, gang, violent crime control program supporting recovery court functions: $62,861.08 from the Administrative Office of the Courts with a local cost share noted in the staff memo. Approved by voice vote.
- Workforce Development Board appointments: The board approved appointments recommended by the Coconino County Workforce Development Board (Jeff McCormick, Carolyn Kidd, Jason Jones, John Connolly) for terms 04/08/2025–04/08/2027. Approved by voice vote; nominees spoke briefly.
- Award of RFP 2025-514 to Emergency Management Partners LLC for development of the county's multi-jurisdictional hazard mitigation plan and supporting materials: contract not to exceed $100,000 from the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) 2023 grant. Approved by voice vote.
- Grant award contract CNA 25-102 with the State of Arizona Constable Ethics Standards Training Board to purchase duty weapon equipment for constables in Williams and Flagstaff ($2,298.35) and a corresponding budget amendment. Approved by voice vote.

Items removed from consent: Supervisors asked that consent agenda items numbered 9 and 21 be removed from the consent agenda and not considered tonight; staff said item 21 would be continued to the April 22 agenda after vendor revisions, while the timing for item 9 was not specified.

Votes and procedure: Most roll-call actions on proclamations and consent agenda items were handled by motion and carried on unanimous or voice vote; the record does not include roll-call tallies naming each supervisor's vote. When recorded, motions, seconds, and the phrase \"opposed, motion carries\" appear in the transcript.

What’s next: Items pulled from consent may return to a future agenda after staff follow-up. Several proclamations correspond with county outreach events (e.g., Dark Sky and Earth Day activities) that county staff and partners said they will publicize.","At its April 8 meeting the Coconino County Board of Supervisors voted to approve six proclamations and multiple consent items, including small community grants and board appointments. Two consent items were removed from consideration and will not be voted on tonight.","actionData","errors"]
