The MAG Regional Solid Waste Management Plan is designed to provide for systems-level regional solid waste management planning and to prevent adverse public health and environmental effects resulting from improper solid waste collection, processing, or disposal. MAG is the designated Regional Water Quality Management Planning Program for the Maricopa County Area. This designation was made by Governor Jack Williams in 1974 in accordance with Section 208 of the Clean Water Act. The initial MAG 208 Water Quality Management Plan was prepared in 1979 with revisions in 1982, 1993, 2002, and 2014. The plan serves as the key guiding document for the Regional Water Quality Management Planning Program. MAG was designated as the Regional Air Quality Planning Agency for Maricopa County area by Governor Wesley Bolin in 1978. MAG is responsible for developing air quality plan revisions in accordance with the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. MAG also conducts conformity analysis on the Transportation Improvement Program and the MAG Regional Transportation Plan. MAG pursues a number of other continuing activities in air quality including tracking the air quality inventory data, analyzing air quality control strategies to reduce emissions, reviewing in implementation status of ongoing measures, and reviewing legislation, regulations, and technical guidelines. 2597169 118533 0 Regional Analytics- The primary responsibility of the Regional Analytics Program is to develop socioeconomic estimates and projections for use by MAG and member agency planning and modeling activities. In accordance with Executive Order 2011-04, the Arizona Department of Economic Security (ADES) approves resident population totals for each county, while MAG develops subregional estimates and projections based upon the Maricopa County resident population control totals. Midyear estimates of resident population by municipal boundaries are produced annually. Municipal Resident Population Esitmates are used to determine municipak expenditure limits and billions of dollars a year in state-shared revenue and are produced every five years. Projections of population, housing units, and employment are developed using the latest decennial or special census as the base. These projections are developed at three levels of subregional geography: Municipal Planning Area (MPA), Regional Analysis Zone (RAZ), and Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ). The projections are used for a wide variety of other regional planning programs. In particular, these projections and the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) coverage and data that are used as input to these projections, facilitate the review and analysis of issues and provide consistent credible information for MAG and MAG member agencies. 6757029 3208784 0 Human Services Planning - Since 1976, the Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) Human Services Planning Program has worked closely with a broad range of partners to develop coordinated, regional solutions that respond to the emerging needs and opportunities in each community. This work is conducted through extensive community engagement, sound data analysis, and inclusive consensus building. The MAG Human Services Planning Program identifies strategies to end domestic violence and homelessness, coordinate human services transportation, enhance age-friendly communities, and coordinate regional human services planning. These activities are either federal mandates, as a requirement to receive funding or have been identified as a priority by the MAG Regional Council. The MAG Continuum of Care Board along with the MAG Continuum of Care Regional Committee on Homelessness provide direction on homeless planning and policy. This is done through updates to the Regional Plan to End Homelessness and a consolidated application to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to support homeless assistance programs. The MAG Regional Domestic Violence Council develops and implements strategies including the Regional Plan to End Domestic Violence and reduces the incidence of trauma associated with domestic violence. The current area of focus is enhancing the regional criminal justice system's response to domestic violence through the MAG Protocol Evaluation Project. Finally, the Ad Hoc Elderly and Persons with Disabilities Transportation Committee determines a priority listing of Section 5310 applications for vehicles, radio equipment, software, and mobility management funds to transport older adults and people with disabilities. Program Implementation-This division has both Air Quality and Transportation projects. The goal of the air quality programs is to reduce particulate pollution through the purchase of PM-10 Street Sweepers, Trip Reduction, Travel Reduction, and Telecommute and Ozone Reduction projects. During the FY, MAG distributed funds to member agencies for qualified street sweeper purchases. MAG assists employers in the region in achievement of the trip reduction goals through programs and services. MAG also assists with programs that support trip reduction policies, amenities and facilities that enhance the use of commute alternatives. Transportation Implementation projects include an educational campaign for the reduction of litter on the freeways and arterial roads, Intelligent Transportation Systems, traffic signal optimization projects, and communication on transportation issues through regional community network data via fiber optics. 6757029 3208784 0 27169175 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 123 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 34 34 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 X X Somer Phegley 6024525052 302 North 1st Avenue Suite 300 Phoenix AZ 850031562 Eric Anderson MAG Executive Director and Secretary 40 0 X X 278678 0 0 Amy St Peter Deputy Executive Director 40 0 X 209290 0 0 Vladimir Livshits Transportation Director 40 0 X 206960 0 0 Anubhav Bagley Regional Analytics Director 40 0 X 192421 0 0 Audrey F Skidmore Information Technology Director 40 0 X 178922 0 0 Tim Strow Transportation Policy & Planning Division Director 40 0 X 165256 0 0 Kelly Taft Communication Director 40 0 X 163946 0 0 Somer Phegley Fiscal Services Director 40 0 X 144685 0 0 Kenneth Weise Vice Chair; Mayor, City of Avondale 2 0 X 0 0 0 Kate Gallego Treasurer; Mayor, City of Phoenix 2 0 X 0 0 0 Kevin Hartke MAG At-Large Member; Mayor, City of Chandler 2 0 X 0 0 0 Alexis Hermosillo MAG At-Large Member;Mayor, El Mirage 2 0 X 0 0 0 Eric Osborn At-Large member; Mayor, City of Buckeye 2 0 X 0 0 0 Bridgette Peterson At-Large Member, Mayor, City of Gilbert 2 0 X 0 0 0 John Giles Chair; Mayor, City of Mesa 2 0 X 0 0 0 1540158 0 0 55 0 1 0 DAVIDSON AND BELLUSO INC 2375 East Camelback Rd Suite 600 Phoenix AZ 85016 Advertising and Media Consulting 638897 BURGESS AND NIPLE 5085 Reed Road Columbus OH 43220 Transportation Consulting 615623 HIGH STREET CONSULTING GROUP INC 6937 Blenheim Ct PITTSBURGH PA 15208 Transportation Consulting 583364 KIMLEY HORN AND ASSOCIATES INC 7740 N 16th Suite 300 PHOENIX AZ 85020 Transportation Consulting 461318 HDR ENGINEERING INC 20 E Thomas Rd Suite 2500 PHOENIX AZ 85012 Transportation consulting 419985 24 0 0 0 0 21045688 11136676 0 32182364 0 191216 0 0 191216 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 32373580 0 0 191216 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 639792 556619 83173 0 0 0 0 0 11499489 10004555 1494934 0 1435320 1248728 186592 0 1680463 1462003 218460 0 887398 772036 115362 0 0 0 0 0 501092 435950 65142 0 48500 42195 6305 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 11231997 9771837 1460160 0 49147 42758 6389 0 123320 107288 16032 0 1364483 1187100 177383 0 0 0 0 0 836432 727696 108736 0 32918 28639 4279 0 0 0 0 0 87693 76293 11400 0 154007 133986 20021 0 0 0 0 0 262552 228420 34132 0 129313 112503 16810 0 Reference Materials and Subscriptions 260610 226731 33879 0 Miscellaneous 4411 3838 573 0 0 0 0 0 31228937 27169175 4059762 0 0 0 27084252 28878804 4123055 7290001 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4732 4732 272824 226087 8209493 7821499 408654 387994 0 0 0 0 0 31893517 36787618 3624913 3756632 0 0 18741939 17130181 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7868618 13098115 30235470 33984928 X 1658047 2802690 0 0 1658047 2802690 31893517 36787618 1144643 0 0 0 0 0 X 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1818264 1817990 274 0 4838416 4482935 355481 0 1552813 1520574 32239 387994 0 Due to Other Funds 11682946 Due within one year 1085851 due after one year 329318 13098115 X X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Eric Anderson MAG Executive Director and Secretary 278678 0 0 0 0 0 7139 0 0 0 285817 0 0 0 Amy St Peter Deputy Executive Director 209290 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 209290 0 0 0 Vladimir Livshits Transportation Director 206960 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 206960 0 0 0 Anubhav Bagley Regional Analytics Director 192421 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 192421 0 0 0 Audrey F Skidmore Information Technology Director 178922 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 178922 0 0 0 Tim Strow Transportation Policy & Planning Division Director 165256 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 165256 0 0 0 Kelly Taft Communication Director 163946 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 163946 0 0 0 Somer Phegley Fiscal Services Director 144685 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 144685 0 0 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 6 MAG has 27 member agencies (cities and towns) Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 9 Kenneth Weise, Mayor, City of Avondale, 11465 W.
