Town staff presented Resolution 2026‑1306 seeking authorization to apply for Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation benefits funds to construct a restroom facility at the Chino Valley police training range.
Staff said the town will request $300,000, which includes a 20% contingency to account for material‑cost increases. The briefing noted the training range recorded 2,456 hours of training in 2025 and the application had obtained 11 letters of support from regional agencies. Funding from tribal benefits funds is provided under Arizona’s Proposition 202-authorized benefit programs, and these grants typically support public safety and infrastructure projects.
A council member moved to approve the resolution, the motion was seconded and passed by roll call. The tally was seven yes, zero no.
Resolution number: 2026‑1306. The town manager/staff were authorized to submit the application and accept funds if awarded.
