PREFACE

The Advisory Commission has s t r o n g l y supported t h e use of i n t e r l o c a l coope ra t i on a s one b a s i c method of broadening t he geographica l base f o r handl ing common governmental f unc t i ons . I n one of i t s e a r l i e s t r e p o r t s , t h e Commission pointed ou t :

Intergovernmental coopera t ion a t t h e l o c a l l e v e l e i t h e r by formal w r i t t e n c o n t r a c t s o r by in formal v e r b a l agreements o f t e n prov ides a workable method of meeting p a r t i c u l a r problems . . . when s e p a r a t e a c t i o n by i n d i v i d u a l l o c a l u n i t s i s uneconomical and when t h e conso l i da t i on o r t r a n s f e r of t h e func t i on i s n o t economically o r p o l i t i c a l l y f e a s i b l e . These i n t e r l o c a l a r - rangements a r e of two major t ypes - - ( l ) t he p rov is ion of governmental s e r v i c e s on a c o n t r a c t u a l b a s i s by one u n i t of government t o one o r more a d d i t i o n a l u n i t s , and (2) t he j o i n t conduct by two o r more u n i t s of government of a p a r t i c u l a r f unc t i on o r t he j o i n t ope ra t i on of a p a r t i c u l a r governmental f a c i 1 i t y . l

The Commission endorsed and inc luded i n i t s S t a t e L e g i s l a t i v e Program model l eg - i s l a t i o n au thog i z ing formal i n t e r l o c a l coopera t ion through w r i t t e n agreements and c o n t r a c t s .

I n t e r l o c a l agreements and c o n t r a c t s have been widely used i n some a r e a s and f o r some purposes , bu t many policy-makers s t i l l a r e no t f u l l y aware of t h e i r p o t e n t i a l . I n a d d i t i o n , some pub l i c o f f i c i a l s and a d m i n i s t r a t o r s , who make d e c i - s i o n s regard ing t h i s j o i n t approach and n e g o t i a t e t h e necessary formal ag r ee - ments and c o n t r a c t s , f r equen t l y a r e un fami l i a r w i th many of t h e p rov i s i ons t h a t should o r could be inc luded and wi th va r i ous a l t e r n a t i v e s t h a t might be used. The a l l o c a t i o n of c o s t s , t h e es tab l i shment of a d m i n i s t r a t i v e arrangements , the e x t e n t of r e p o r t i n g and o t h e r mutual r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s lend themselves t o va r i ous approaches.

Las t y e a r , t h e Commission took no t e of t h i s s i t u a t i o n and agreed t h a t wider and b e t t e r use of i n t e r l o c a l agreements and c o n t r a c t s could be encouraged by developing and d i s t r i b u t i n g a handbook which descr ibed t h e major f e a t u r e s of such agreements and conta ined s p e c i f i c examples. Such a handbook, i t was f e l t , would a s s i s t S t a t e l e g i s l a t o r s i n p repar ing enabl ing l e g i s l a t i o n . It would a i d l o c a l l e g i s l a t i v e bodies i n making dec i s i ons r ega rd ing t h e use and n e g o t i a t i o n of agreements o r c o n t r a c t s and i n approving them. It would be h e l p f u l t o l o c a l a d m i n i s t r a t o r s i n d r a f t i n g and n e g o t i a t i n g such agreements and c o n t r a c t s . And, f i n a l l y , i t would h e l p f i l l an in format ion gap con f ron t i ng p u b l i c s e r v i c e groups and i n d i v i d u a l c i t i z e n s who want t o b e t t e r understand t h i s dev ice and encourage i t s u se . The Advisory Commission subsequent ly con t r ac t ed w i th the Nat iona l League of C i t i e s t o c o l l e c t t h e necessary m a t e r i a l s and prepare gu ide l i ne s f o r d r a f t i n g i n t e r l o c a l c o n t r a c t s and agreements .

This handbook cons i s t s of two p a r t s . P a r t I presents a b r i e f general d iscuss ion of i n t e r l o c a l agreements and con t rac t s with s p e c i f i c examples of the kinds of problems t h a t have been surmounted by them. It includes a d iscuss ion of the c o n s t i t u t i o n a l and s t a t u t o r y provisions drawing on both model b i l l language and ac tua l enactments. For those in te res t ed i n more de ta i l ed information there i s an annotated bibliography a t the end of P a r t I. It includes general references and a State-by-State l i s t i n g . Contents of r epor t s a r e b r i e f l y noted i n the annotat ion$. Special a t t e n t i o n i s given t o case s t u d i e s , survey summaries of the use of con t rac t s and agreements, and compilations of c i t a t i o n s t o S t a t e author iz ing l e g i s l a t i o n .

Pa r t I1 reviews the s p e c i f i c elements included i n agreements and con- t r a c t s and provides guidel ines concerning t h e i r d r a f t i n g with cross references to pe r t inen t sec t ions of the subsequent model and sample agreements. The guide- l i n e s a r e followed by models and examples, the bulk of the handbook, which provide a s e l e c t i o n designed t o h igh l igh t the two bas ic types-- ( l ) those providing governmental services on a contrac tual bas i s and (2) those author iz ing j o i n t undertakings of a function or j o i n t operat ion of a f a c i l i t y . I n each case , an e f f o r t has been made t o include examples of con t rac t s and agreements among various p a r t i e s (counties, c i t i e s , towns, spec ia l d i s t r i c t s ) , f o r various purposes ( f i r e , po l i ce , r ec rea t ion , garbage c o l l e c t i o n , sewage d i sposa l , water supply), f o r various kinds of operat ion (regulatory, provision of se rv ices , j o i n t use of physical f a c i l i t i e s ) , with various adminis t ra t ive arrangements ( j o i n t boards, new agencies, assignment of r e spons ib i l i ty t o e x i s t i n g o f f i c e s and o f - f i c i a l s ) , and with various methods of payment.

The Advisory Commission hopes t h a t t h i s handbook w i l l be useful t o a l l who a r e considering i n t e r l o c a l agreements and contrac ts a s a method of f a c i l i t a t - ing the provision of services by loca l governments. The Commission expresses i t s g ra t i tude t o the National League of C i t i e s and i t s s t a f f which pa r t i c ipa ted i n the preparat ion of the handbook and t o the many loca l o f f i c i a l s who cooperated with them i n providing ma te r i a l and answering questions.

INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTS AND CONTRACTS

THE ADAPTATION OF AREA TO FUNCTION

As the Nat ion ' s populat ion grows and people increas ingly loca t e i n c i t i e s and v i l l a g e s which i n tu rn concent ra te i n met ropol i tan a reas leaving fewer people i n r u r a l a r e a s , a cons tant process of adapta t ion of government t o changing needs takes place. One of the most d i f f i c u l t adjustments t h a t must be

made i n a r e a s where populat ion i s e i t h e r growing, dec l in ing , o r changing i n charac ter i s r e l a t i n g governmental j u r i s d i c t i o n a l boundaries t o the most d e s i r a - b l e , f e a s i b l e , o r economical s e rv i ce a r e a s f o r publ ic funct ions . The "best" s e rv i ce a rea f o r a funct ion w i l l vary depending on the cha rac t e r of the funct ion and the people being served. I n i t s r e p o r t on the Performance of Urban Func- t i ons : Local and Areawide, the Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Rela- t i o n s i d e n t i f i e d a number of f a c t o r s inf luencing cons idera t ion of the b e s t a r ea f o r adminis te r ing funct ions .

A broad range of a l t e r n a t i v e s a r e a v a i l a b l e t o c i t i z e n s and publ ic o f f i - c i a l s i n an area a s they seek t o a d j u s t government t o changing condi t ions . These adapta t ions may lead t o s t r u c t u r a l changes such a s the establ ishment of metropolitanwide genera l governments l i k e those i n Miami-Dade County and Nash- vi l le-Davidson County; the c rea t ion of s p e c i a l d i s t r i c t s t o provide s p e c i f i c funct ions i n designated a r e a s ; annexation of t e r r i t o r y t o e x i s t i n g communities; t he incorpora t ion of new communities; o r the t r a n s f e r of func t iona l respons i - b i l i t i e s among e x i s t i n g governments. Such s t r u c t u r a l changes a r e occurr ing f a r more o f t e n than many would be l ieve . Yet, much more f requent a r e procedural changes t h a t do not involve modif ica t ions i n s t r u c t u r e o r i n bas i c func t iona l r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s .

Procedural adapta t ions take a wide v a r i e t y of forms ranging from informal agreements and understandings, exchange of information, shar ing f a c i l i t i e s , and rendering mutual a i d ; through more formal j o i n t e n t e r p r i s e s and undertakings; t o binding l e g a l arrangements based on formal agreements o r c o n t r a c t s . Such examples of intergovernmental cooperat ion f requent ly take p lace simultaneously, with one type merging gradual ly i n t o the o t h e r . Co l l ec t ive ly , they c o n s t i t u t e an i n t r i c a t e , f l e x i b l e , and dynamic network through which the more s t a b l e and fundamental s t r u c t u r a l p a t t e r n s a r e pragmatical ly reconci led t o s h i f t i n g publ ic demands. They c o n s t i t u t e the most convenient instrument a v a i l a b l e t o o f f i c i a l s f o r making a complex and fragmented s t r u c t u r e of l o c a l government more workable and responsive t o publ ic needs.4

Procedural adap ta t ion i s poss ib le e i t h e r through informal understand- i ngs ; through p a r a l l e l formal a c t i o n pursuant t o the genera l a u t h o r i t y of the cooperat ing j u r i s d i c t i o n s or t o s p e c i f i c s t a t u t o r y and c h a r t e r provis ions ; o r

by formal c o n t r a c t o r agreement. A l l of t he se approaches have been used. But t h i s handbook i s only concerned wi th t he formal c o n t r a c t o r agreement.

INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTSANDCONTRACTS

An intergovernmental c o n t r a c t i s a formal means by which governments undertake mutual o b l i g a t i o n s t o one another . I n t h e broades t s ense , any such o b l i g a t i o n s formal ly en te red i n t o c o n s t i t u t e a c o n t r a c t . Yet , i t i s u s e f u l t o d i s t i n g u i s h agreements provid ing f o r j o i n t e x e r c i s e of powers from c o n t r a c t s f o r s e r v i c e s , which, i n e f f e c t , c o n s t i t u t e a simple "business" t r a n s a c t i o n between governments. The words "agreement" and "cont rac t" w i l l be used he re i n t h i s s p e c i a l i z e d sense .

P a r t i e s t o i n t e r l o c a l c o n t r a c t s and agreements may inc lude a l l l e v e l s of government from s p e c i a l d i s t r i c t s and school d i s t r i c t s t o t he Government of t he United S t a t e s . Under c e r t a i n circumstances and wi th proper a u t h o r i z a t i o n they can be en t e r ed i n t o wi th l o c a l i t i e s i n f o r e i g n c o u n t r i e s .

Agreements and c o n t r a c t s a r e wi thout doubt t he most widely used formal method of coopera t ion among governments i n t h e United S t a t e s and p re sen t a f l e x i b l e , y e t p r e d i c t a b l e and enforceable method of adap t a t i on among governmental j u r i s d i c t i o n s . They make pos s ib l e economies of s c a l e , t he p rov i s ion of s p e c i a l - i z ed s e r v i c e s which would no t o therwise be a v a i l a b l e t o smal l governments, maximum u t i l i z a t i o n of c e r t a i n types of f a c i l i t i e s such a s computers and t e c h n i c a l and r e sea rch equipment, and s p e c i a l i z a t i o n among governments. They can be used t o accommodate program needs t o d e s i r a b l e s e r v i c e a r e a s wi thout a f f e c t i n g b a s i c s t r u c t u r e o r o rgan i za t i on . Consequently, needed s e r v i c e s can be provided and necessary p r o j e c t s undertaken wi thout wa i t i ng f o r long-range governmental r e - o rgan i za t i on dec i s ions which u t l ima te ly may be necessary . The i d e a l o rganiza- t i o n a l p a t t e r n may we l l be p o l i t i c a l l y un fea s ib l e . Furthermore, such an i d e a l w i l l va ry from func t i on t o func t i on and a s popula t ion s h i f t s t ake p l ace , economic cond i t i ons change, and technologica l d i s cove r i e s a r e made. Agreements and con- t r a c t s p r e sen t a p r a c t i c a l method of g e t t i n g on wi th t he pub l i c bus iness a t hand and meeting p re s s ing demands.

The cont inu ing d ia logue which r e s u l t s from the n e g o t i a t i o n and reexami- na t i on of c o n t r a c t s and agreements g ive s r i s e t o a p a t t e r n of government t h a t has been descr ibed a s a f l u i d federa l i sm i n which the " c o n s t i t u t i o n " i s r ev i s ed "not once i n t e n o r twenty y e a r s , b u t every s i n g l e day.1'5

I n t h e i r b roades t a p p l i c a t i o n , agreements can be used t o undertake j o i n t l y any func t i ons and r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s which governments could undertake s i n g l y , and c o n t r a c t s can s i m i l a r l y be used t o purchase any s e r v i c e s o r f a c i l i t i e s which one government i s au thor ized t o undertake o r t o provide on i t s own a u t h o r i t y .

J o i n t agreements may merely g ive formal s t a t u s t o arrangements which might o therwise be c a r r i e d on informal ly a s , f o r example, sha r ing r e s p o n s i b i l i t y f o r maintenance and upkeep of a border s t r e e t , a border park , o r o t h e r f a c i l i t y between j u r i s d i c t i o n s . They may provide a formal b a s i s f o r mutual a i d when t h e need a r i s e s i n connect ion wi th f i r e f i g h t i n g . On t h e o t h e r hand, they may e s t a b - l i s h more s p e c i f i c o b l i g a t i o n s such a s t h e assignment of v e h i c l e s and personnel f o r garbage d i s p o s a l and land f i l l ope ra t i ons . J o i n t agreements can be used t o formal ize arrangements f o r cons t ruc t i on of j o i n t p r o j e c t s and t o e s t a b l i s h j o i n t p lanning , b u i l d i n g , and ope ra t i ng boards , commissions, o r agenc ies . They may

a l s o serve a s t he b a s i s f o r the establ ishment of intergovernmental coopera t ive agencies , such a s counci l s of governments and regional planning agencies . In- deed, with the new requirement i n Federal l e g i s l a t i o n f o r review of urban development g ran t app l i ca t ions from metropol i tan a r e a s , t h i s use of agreements may become inc reas ing ly important . 6

Contracts may provide f o r the purchase of a needed resource such a s water o r a needed se rv i ce such a s bui ld ing in spec t ion , s t r e e t sweeping, o r garbage c o l l e c t i o n and d i sposa l . Here, the r e l a t i o n s h i p between the government buying the se rv i ce and the one s e l l i n g i t would be v i r t u a l l y i d e n t i c a l t o t h a t between any publ ic agency purchaser and a vendor. Cont rac ts , on the o the r hand, may go beyond a simple buyer-vendor r e l a t i o n s h i p and provide f o r c e r t a i n shared respon- s i b i l i t i e s , payments i n kind o r s e r v i c e s , or the assignment of admin i s t r a t ive r e s p o n s i b i l i t y . They may even be used t o e s t a b l i s h a supervisory o r governing board--as i s t he case of t h e cons t ruc t ion and opera t ion of a j o i n t a i r p o r t .

Agreements o r con t r ac t s which e s t a b l i s h admin i s t r a t ive agencies a r e a l - t e r n a t i v e s , of course , t o o the r approaches which could be taken. Specia l d i s t r i c t s o r agencies , f o r example, might be e s t ab l i shed under s t a t u t o r y provi - s ions by r e s o l u t i o n of l o c a l governments o r by referendum among v o t e r s i n the a r e a s t o be served. The agreement o r c o n t r a c t approach permits g r e a t e r f l e x i - b i l i t y and l o c a l adapta t ion t o meet p a r t i c u l a r problems.

AUTHORITY TO CONTRACT AND TO ENTER INTO AGREEMENTS-STATE LAW

Most ins tances of formal intergovernmental cooperat ion through agreements and con t r ac t s a r e based on s t a t u t o r y au tho r i za t ions , bu t t r e s sed i n a few S t a t e s by c o n s t i t u t i o n a l provis ions . This stems from the genera l r u l e of s t r i c t cons t ruc t ion of municipal powers. General ly, l o c a l governments a r e l imi ted t o such con t r ac t s o r agreements a s may be author ized i n express terms by c h a r t e r s , l e g i s l a t i v e a c t s , o r c o n s t i t u t i o n a l provis ions ; o r a s may be necessa r i l y implied from such express au tho r i za t ion . I n a d d i t i o n , municipal co rpora t ions ' powers genera l ly a r e deemed t o end a t municipal boundaries.

State Statutes and Constitutions

A l l S t a t e s au tho r i ze agreements and c o n t r a c t s a t l e a s t among some l o c a l governments f o r c e r t a i n purposes. Such s p e c i f i c s t a t u t o r y au tho r i za t ions number a s many a s a hundred o r more i n some S t a t e s . Their purposes cover such d ive r se func t iona l needs a s provis ion of pol ice s e r v i c e s , the opera t ion of parks, t he c o l l e c t i o n of garbage, the purchase of computers, and provision of mass t r a n s i t f a c i l i t i e s . While t h e aggregate of these au tho r i za t ions may confer f a i r l y broad a u t h o r i t y on u n i t s of l o c a l government, t h i s p a r t i c u l a r i s t i c approach tends t o hamper the f u l l e s t use of t he con t r ac t and agreement devices.

Fre- quently the most meaningful cooperat ion i s between--not simply among--levels of government, and t h i s inc ludes the S t a t e and Federal Government. F i n a l l y , the very complexity and m u l t i p l i c i t y of these s p e c i f i c au tho r i za t ions may r e s u l t i n an unawareness on the p a r t of publ ic o f f i c i a l s of t he oppor tun i t i e s f o r coopera- t i o n through con t r ac t and agreement.

Beginning wi th a 1921 au tho r i za t ion i n Ca l i fo rn i a , S t a t e l e g i s l a t u r e s have inc re s ing ly provided broader, more genera l grants of au tho r i ty t o a wider range of l o c a l governments. When a model a c t was d ra f t ed by the Council of S t a t e Governments i n 1957, four teen S t a t e s had general a c t s permi t t ing agreements o r con t r ac t s o r both among most o r a l l governments and covering most o r a l l of the funct ions they were permitted t o perform ind iv idua l ly . Today, two- t h i r d s of the S t a t e s have general au thor iz ing l e g i s l a t i o n , a s wel l a s a number of s p e c i f i c func t iona l a c t s .

The model a c t with some rev i s ions appears i n the Advisory Commission's 1967 S t a t e Leg i s l a t ive Program and i s reproduced i n Appendix B o f t h i s Handbook, page 24. It provides a broad general au tho r i za t ion f o r l oca l governments and S t a t e agencies t o exerc ise j o i n t l y by agreement or contract--among themselves, with publ ic agencies i n o the r S t a t e s , or wi th the Federal Government--any powers and funct ions which they a r e capable of performing ind iv idua l ly . It inc ludes provision f o r en t e r ing i n t o such cooperat ive agreements and s p e c i f i e s what s h a l l be included. A requirement i s included f o r review by the a t to rney genera l and by any S t a t e agency which may have a u t h o r i t y i n the area covered by the agreement. A f i l i n g procedure i s a l s o s e t f o r t h . Agreements entered i n t o across S t a t e l i n e s a r e t r ea t ed a s i n t e r s t a t e compacts. While t he re i s a provision au tho r i z ing con t r ac t s f o r s e rv i ces between governments, d e t a i l s regarding the requi red content of such con t r ac t s , f i l i n g and review procedures, and o the r gen- e r a l governing provisions a r e not provided. I n these in s t ances , any s p e c i f i c provisions beyond the bas i c au tho r i za t ion have t o be t a i l o r e d t o meet the e x i s t - ing body of publ ic con t r ac t law i n the S t a t e .

A t l e a s t seven S t a t e s have s p e c i f i c c o n s t i t u t i o n a l au tho r i za t ion f o r i n t e r l o c a l cooperat ion-- including au tho r i za t ion f o r agreements, f o r c o n t r a c t s , o r f o r both.8 These provis ions vary considerably i n t h e i r scope and langugage. Some a r e no t s e l f - en fo rc ing and r equ i r e l e g i s l a t i v e a c t i o n f o r t h e i r implementa- t i o n . Others apply only t o home r u l e u n i t s of government, and s t i l l o the r s apply only t o a few enumerated governments.

The absence of s p e c i f i c c o n s t i t u t i o n a l au tho r i za t ion has no t been a major f a c t o r i n d e t e r r i n g t h i s type of intergovernmental cooperat ion i n the p a s t . I n the absence of s p e c i f i c r e s t r i c t i o n s , S t a t e l e g i s l a t u r e s have been deemed t o have the power t o au tho r i ze agreements and con t r ac t s by s t a t u t e . Such a u t h o r i t y has even been accepted f o r i n t e r l o c a l agreements across S t a t e l i n e s - - a s i n the cases of Ca l i fo rn i a , New York, Kansas, and Nevada where the re was no s p e c i f i c c o n s t i t u t i o n a l language. But s p e c i f i c c o n s t i t u t i o n a l language s tands a s a fundamental recogni t ion of t he d e s i r a b i l i t y of encouraging such j o i n t in tergov- ernmental a c t i o n . I f i t i s c a r e f u l l y d r a f t e d , i t can a l s o f r e e such r e l a t i o n - sh ips from any poss ib le s t r i c t u r e s a r i s i n g inadve r t an t ly from language designed f o r o ther purposes. Such r e s t r i c t i o n s can a r i s e d i r e c t l y o r by impl ica t ion from the tendency i n S t a t e c o n s t i t u t i o n s t o compartmentalize loca l government provi - s ions . Rela t ionships between the S t a t e , mun ic ipa l i t i e s , and counties may be t r ea t ed q u i t e ex tens ive ly , while ho r i zon ta l r e l a t i o n s h i p s among the l e v e l s may be v i r t u a l l y ignored. These f ea tu re s along with the lack of s p e c i f i c language can produce i n t e r p r e t a t i o n of a provision which r e s t r i c t s or forec loses coopera- t i o n .

Furthermore, i t may f a c i l i t a t e nego t i a t ion and adoption of i n t e r l o c a l agreements across S t a t e l i n e s and with the Federal Government t o include s p e c i f i c c o n s t i t u t i o n a l au tho r i za t ion f o r them. This could be p a r t i c u l a r l y t r u e i f i t were des i red t o permit l o c a l governments t o take the i n i t i a t i v e i n nego t i a t ions .

Suggested c o n s t i t u t i o n a l language author iz ing i n t e r l o c a l agreements ac ros s S t a t e l i n e s and with the Federal Government has been developed by the Council of S t a t e Governments and i s included i n the Advisory Commission's 1967 S t a t e Leg i s l a t ive Program. This model, with a d d i t i o n a l language, can a l s o be used t o au tho r i ze a l l types of i n t e r l o c a l cooperat ion and j o i n t e n t e r p r i s e s among governments wi th in a s i n g l e S t a t e . i f t h i s i s thought necessary o r d e s i r a - b l e .

On the o the r hand, two sepa ra t e c o n s t i t u t i o n a l sect ions--one dea l ing with the i n t e r s t a t e problems, the o the r with the i n t r a s t a t e - - c a n be used f o r au tho r i z ing agreements. This approach was taken i n the new Michigan cons t i t u t ion .1°

Lega l Interpretations and Issues

Although the s p e c i f i c law app l i cab le t o i n t e r l o c a l agreements and con- t r a c t s v a r i e s considerably from S t a t e t o S t a t e , s eve ra l genera l i s s u e s and problems have a r i s e n which throw l i g h t on the na ture of the con t r ac t ing and agreement device. I d e n t i f i c a t i o n of these i s sues should be he lp fu l t o publ ic o f f i - c i a l s i n a s ses s ing the enabling l e g i s l a t i o n i n t h e i r own S t a t e . When i n t e r s t a t e con t r ac t s and agreements a r e contemplated i t i s even more important t o be f a m i l i a r with the types of i s sues r a i s e d by enabling l e g i s l a t i o n .

Considerable a t t e n t i o n has been d i r ec t ed t o the r e l a t i o n s h i p between a "general" intergovernmental cooperat ion s t a t u t e f o r agreements and c o n t r a c t s and the e x i s t i n g (or subsequent) s p e c i f i c func t iona l au tho r i za t ions . The major problem here has been the ex ten t t o which procedures ou t l i ned i n s p e c i f i c func- t i o n a l au tho r i za t ions apply t o undertakings under a broad au tho r i za t ion and the ex ten t t o which s p e c i f i c provis ions might l i m i t a broad au tho r i za t ion .

The quest ion has been r a i s e d , f o r example, whether governments can proceed t o c o n t r a c t o r e n t e r i n t o agreements under a general au tho r i za t ion when s p e c i f i c au tho r i za t ion is given i n func t iona l s t a t u t e s . It has been claimed t h a t even i f l o c a l i t i e s proceed under a genera l au tho r i za t ion , they may not p re sc r ibe admin i s t r a t ive o r o the r a r r a n ements which d i f f e r from those s e t f o r t h i n t he s p e c i f i c func t iona l s t a t u t e . 1f

A f u r t h e r complication i s introduced when a narrow i n t e r p r e t a t i o n has been appl ied t o a general con t r ac t ing and agreement au tho r i za t ion thereby c r e a t - i ng uncer ta in ty a s t o whether a s p e c i f i c p r o j e c t could be undertaken pursuant t o i t s provis ions . I n such cases , a d d i t i o n a l s p e c i f i c func t iona l au tho r i za t ions have f requent ly been adopted. But the quest ion then a r i s e s a s t o whether coopera t ing governments can proceed a t a l l i n t h a t func t iona l a r ea under the gen- e r a l au tho r i za t ion and i f they do whether they a r e bound by the a d d i t i o n a l pre- s c r i p t i o n s of the supplementing a c t . As a mat te r of f a c t , t he genera l Minnesota au tho r i za t ion f o r agreements, which a p p l i e s t o "any power," s p e c i f i e s t h a t t he procedures of a cooperat ive p r o j e c t must conform t o the r u l e s l a i d down i n any o the r r e l evan t a c t which i s app l i cab le t o the s p e c i f i c funct ion . The r e s u l t i s t o b lanket i n t o the genera l a c t any procedures app l i cab le t o s p e c i f i c funct ions even though they may have been t a i l o r e d f o r very s p e c i a l circumstances.12 There i s a danger then t h a t m u l t i p l i c a t i o n of s p e c i f i c func t iona l a u t h o r i z a t i o n s , while necessary f o r c e r t a i n purposes, can v i t i a t e much of t he e f f ec t iveness of broad genera l au tho r i za t ions .

Recent Minnesota l e g i s l a t i o n incorpora tes one approach t o the problem. l3 While au tho r i z ing r eg iona l planning agencies t o be e s t ab l i shed by agreement under

the provis ions of the general exerc ise of powers a c t , the a c t s p e c i f i e s c e r t a i n procedures t h a t a r e f e l t t o be necessary i n connection with r eg iona l planning undertakings. The s impl i c i ty and f l e x i b i l i t y of the b a s i c au tho r i za t ion i s thereby maintained, but a c l e a r b a s i s of a u t h o r i t y i s provided, and s p e c i f i c provisions app l i cab le only t o planning undertakings a r e c l e a r l y e s t ab l i shed . Confusion regard ing which a u t h o r i t y t o proceed under i s thus avoided.

Another major quest ion which a r i s e s i n connection with general au tho r i - za t ion f o r i n t e r l o c a l con t r ac t ing and agreement i s the e x t e n t and scope of t he au tho r i za t ion . One i s s u e i s whether a general au tho r i za t ion f o r governments t o exe rc i se powers j o i n t l y or coopera t ive ly by agreement encompasses both se rv i ce con t r ac t s and j o i n t exe rc i se of powers agreements. In Michigan, f o r example, t he bas i c genera l a c t includes both types of arrangements i n t he fol lowing language:

Any municipal corpora t ion s h a l l have power t o j o in with any o the r municipal corpora t ion o r with any number o r combination thereof by c o n t r a c t , o r otherwise a s may be permit ted by law f o r the own- e r s h i p , opera t ion , or performance.. . of f a c i l i t i e s o r s e rv i ces . l4

I n Minnesota, on the o the r hand, the phrase "may j o i n t l y o r coopera t ive ly exer- c i s e any power common t o the con t r ac t ing p a r t i e s , " which appears i n the author- i z i n g l e g i s l a t i o n , has been i n t e r p r e t e d by the Attorney General t o mean i n t e r - l o c a l agreements f o r co-ownership o r j o i n t maintenance, but not a con t r ac t f o r serv ices .15 The model a c t developed by the Council of S t a t e Governments and r e - v ised by the Advisory commission on Intergovernmental Rela t ions express1 author- i z e s both agreements f o r j o i n t exerc ise of powers and se rv i ce c o n t r a c t s . 1 6

Another d i f f i c u l t y c rea ted by the broad language used i n some S t a t e s i s whether an i n t e r l o c a l agreement can be used t o extend subs t an t ive a u t h o r i t y t o a l o c a l government t o perform j o i n t l y a funct ion i t cannot perform by i t s e l f . The phrase i n the model a c t , "any power o r powers, p r i v i l e g e s , o r a u t h o r i t y , exerc ised o r capable of exe rc i se , by a publ ic agency of t h i s S t a t e may be exer - c i s ed and enjoyed j o i n t l y wi th any o the r publ ic agency of t h i s S t a t e , " could be i n t e r p r e t e d a s meaning t h a t only one of the cooperat ing governments was requi red t o have the bas i c a u t h o r i t y . I n a number of S t a t e s , however, l e g i s l a t u r e s have included language t o make i t c l e a r t h a t only those powers possessed ind iv idua l ly can be exerc ised j o i n t l y Optional language t o accomplish t h i s ob jec t ive i s i n - cluded i n the model a c t . i7

Although the absence of s p e c i f i c c o n s t i t u t i o n a l au tho r i za t ion f o r i n t e r - l o c a l con t r ac t ing and agreements has not genera l ly proven t o be an obs t ac l e t o l e g i s l a t i v e au tho r i za t ion and i t s subsequent use , quest ions occas ional ly have been r a i s e d concerning the r e l a t i o n s h i p between home r u l e g ran t s and the author- i t y t o con t r ac t o r e n t e r i n t o agreements. For example, t he re i s some evidence t h a t a Wisconsin s t a t u t e au tho r i z ing con t r ac t s between a county and municipal i- t i e s wi th in i t s borders has r a r e l y been used because of doubt concerning the c o n s t i t u t i o n a l power of the l e g i s l a t u r e t o de legate t o a county board of super- v i s o r s the type of home r u l e powers implied under the con t r ac t ing au tho r i ty .18 On the o the r hand, a dec is ion i n Colorado i n t e r p r e t i n g a g ran t of home r u l e a s g iv ing exclus ive powers t o perform funct ions has been viewed a s a poss ib le b a r r i e r t o i n t e r l o c a l con t r ac t ing and agreements t o share the funct ions o r have o the r s perform them. l9

S t a t e l e g i s l a t i o n may l i m i t t he a p p l i c a t i o n of an au tho r i za t ion by ex- ce s s ive ly s p e c i f i c des ignat ion of u n i t s au thor ized t o cooperate. For example, l e g i s l a t i o n which au tho r i zes count ies t o j o in wi th each o the r and with p o l i t i c a l subdiv is ions wi th in t h e i r borders does not au tho r i ze the p o l i t i c a l subdiv is ions t o cooperate among themselves unless a county i s a l s o par ty t o the agreement. The model a c t i s d r a f t e d t o extend mutual a u t h o r i t y t o a l l u n i t s of government t o cooperate wi th one another by agreement. 20

Another poin t t h a t may a r i s e i n connection with the use of con t r ac t s o r agreements i s t he ex ten t t o which one governing body can commit i t s successors . Normally i t i s assumed t h a t con t r ac t s concluded by l o c a l governments i n t h e i r p rop r i e t a ry capaci ty w i l l bind t h e i r successors t o meet t he con t r ac tua l obl iga- t i o n s , inc luding payments f o r goods o r s e r v i c e s . However, t h i s i s not t he case with con t r ac t s en tered i n t h e i r pub l i c or governmental capaci ty . For example, where the re was no t p rec i se s t a t u t o r y au tho r i za t ion , i n t e r l o c a l agreements r e - qu i r ing payments continuing beyond the terms of an incumbent governing body have been ru led t o be an inva l id exe rc i se of the appropr i a t ion power. Although most S t a t e a c t s au tho r i z ing i n t e r l o c a l agreements and con t r ac t s a r e e i t h e r s i l e n t on the quest ion of du ra t ion o r merely provide t h a t con t r ac t s may be continued f o r a d e f i n i t e per iod , some few s t i p u l a t e s p e c i f i c periods of du ra t ion with provi- s ion f o r renewal. The Wisconsin s t a t u t e endeavors t o r e t a i n f l e x i b i l i t y f o r con t r ac t ing p a r t i e s while providing l e g a l s anc t ion with a broad mandate: "any such contsgc t may bind the con t r ac t ing p a r t i e s f o r t he length of time s p e c i f i e d the re in . "

Normally, intergovernmental con t r ac t s or agreements which a r e i n t e r s t a t e need only be author ized by s t a t u t e i n both of the S t a t e s and, i f necessary, by c o n s t i t u t i o n a l provis ion . Even though they take the form of i n t e r s t a t e compacts and some i n t e r s t a t e compacts r equ i r e congressional consent , such consent would only be requi red f o r i n t e r l o c a l agreements i n very unusual circumstances. The compact c lause of the c o n s t i t u t i o n has been i n t e r p r e t e d by the Supreme Court i n the case of Virg in ia v . ~ e n n e s s e e 2 2 a s r equ i r ing congressional consent only when compacts a f f e c t the balance of the f e d e r a l system o r a power delegated t o the na t iona l government. Normally, the powers exerc ised by l o c a l governments e i t h e r i nd iv idua l ly o r j o i n t l y would l i e squarely wi th in S t a t e j u r i s d i c t i o n and the re - f o r e r a i s e no quest ion of t he balance of the f ede ra l system.

A t p resent almost a dozen S t a t e s t a t u t e s au thor iz ing genera l i n t e r l o c a l con t r ac t ing and agreements inc lude provis ion f o r cooperat ion ac ros s S t a t e l i n e s . 2 3 Such a provis ion i s a l s o included i n the model a c t which makes the l o c a l governments the r e a l p a r t i e s i n i n t e r e s t f o r l e g a l purposes but a l s o provides t h a t the S t a t e i s joined a s a pa r ty , thus g iv ing the agreement the s t a t u s of an i n t e r - s t a t e compact.24

There a r e occasions when l o c a l governments i n S t a t e s along the Canadian o r Mexican borders may f ind i t d e s i r a b l e t o e n t e r i n t o agreements with communi- t i e s i n those neighboring count r ies .

To sum up, i f intergovernmental con t r ac t s and agreements a r e t o r e a l i z e t h e i r f u l l p o t e n t i a l a s a method of f a c i l i t a t i n g adapta t ion of a r ea t o func t ion

INTERLOCAL CONTRACTS AND AGREEMENTS IN ACTION

The s p e c i f i c purposes f o r which intergovernmental agreements and con- t r a c t s a r e used vary considerably from S t a t e t o S t a t e and even among a r e a s i n i nd iv idua l S t a t e s . This , of course, r e f l e c t s the d i f f e r i n g pa t t e rns of governmental organiza t ion , of ass igning func t iona l r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s , and of l o c a l t r a d i t i o n s and p r a c t i c e s . But desp i t e these varying condi t ions , such agreements and con t r ac t s a r e widely used t o provide "proprietary" s e r v i c e s , p a r t i c u l a r l y such n e c e s s i t i e s a s f i r e p ro t ec t ion , water supply and sewage d isposa l .

I n t he realm of genera l governmental or l e g i s l a t i v e func t ions , they have been most commonly used f o r the provis ion of support ing se rv i ces and a n c i l l a r y a c t i v i t i e s , such a s po l i ce r ad io , cr iminal i d e n t i f i c a t i o n , cou r t r eco rds , and j o i n t bu i ld ing and maintenance of j a i l s and courthouses. A l l of these a r e func- t i o n s where major subs t an t ive d i s c r e t i o n i s not requi red i n day-to-day opera- t i o n s ; performance methods a r e r e l a t i v e l y s tandardized and accepted; t he need f o r spec i a l i zed and profess ional q u a l i f i c a t i o n s predominates; and the demand f o r the se rv i ces i s comparatively s t a b l e .

I n t e r l o c a l agreements and c o n t r a c t s , however, a r e by no means l imi ted t o funct ions of t h i s type. They have a l s o been employed t o provide se rv i ces and f a c i l i t i e s i n func t iona l a r eas where g rea t e r d i s c r e t i o n i s necessary and the re i s l e s s s t anda rd iza t ion .

Patterns of Cooperation

Where cons iderable use i s made of i n t e r l o c a l con t r ac t s and agreements, two bas i c p a t t e r n s emerge: a l l ho r i zon ta l l l system and a "ve r t i ca l " system. A "ve r t i ca l " network of agreements develops between l a r g e r u n i t s such a s c i t i e s , count ies , o r the S t a t e and smal ler l o c a l governments. Frequently, f o r example, a county w i l l take the i n i t i a t i v e i n informing loca l governments of the a v a i l - a b i l i t y of the se rv i ces and i n f a c i l i t a t i n g t h e i r en t e r ing i n t o con t r ac t s f o r the use of them. A somewhat comparable p a t t e r n develops when a c e n t r a l c i t y provides se rv i ces t o surrounding towns, v i l l a g e s , and suburbs. On a more l imi ted b a s i s and i n p a r t i c u l a r func t iona l a r e a s , t h i s system w i l l develop between S t a t e s and l o c a l governments. While agreements could be used among any of the governments i n a v e r t i c a l r e l a t i o n s h i p , con t r ac t s a r e more usua l , s ince major j u r i s - d i c t i o n s have the f a c i l i t i e s and the t r a ined personnel which smal ler j u r i s d i c - t i o n s need.

The "hor izonta l" p a t t e r n i s based on agreements among s i m i l a r governments f o r mutual undertakings. Towns and v i l l a g e s , f o r example, may e s t a b l i s h j o i n t po l i ce f o r c e s , e n t e r i n t o mutual a i d f i r e agreements, or agree t o share a s a n i t a r y land f i l l opera t ion . School d i s t r i c t s may agree t o share r e c r e a t i o n a l f a c i l i t i e s , processing of l i b r a r y a c q u i s i t i o n s , o r a c e n t r a l purchasing program. Local f i r e p ro t ec t ion d i s t r i c t s , may e n t e r i n t o mutual a i d agreements. An "horizontal" r e l a t i o n s h i p a l s o develops when suburbs or r u r a l l o c a l i t i e s agree t o j o i n t undertakings o r con t r ac t s with s p e c i a l d i s t r i c t s f o r s p e c i f i c s e r v i c e s . For example, such mun ic ipa l i t i e s not included wi th in the se rv i ce a rea of a water supply or s a n i t a r y d i s t r i c t may con t r ac t f o r water or waste t reatment and d i s - posal s e rv i ces .

Contracts or Agreements?

The foregoing review of " h ~ r i z o n t a l ' ~ and " v e r t i c a l " r e l a t i o n s h i p s r a i s e s the quest ion of what f a c t o r s inf luence the choice of a j o i n t agreement a s a g a i n s t a c o n t r a c t . Generally speaking, i f a mutual i ty of i n t e r e s t , r e sou rces , f a c i l i t i e s , and p o t e n t i a l con t r ibu t ion does not e x i s t a j o i n t agreement approach i s unl ike ly . For example, i n developing mutual a i d f i r e f i g h t i n g agreements i n the Cleveland metropol i tan a r e a , mun ic ipa l i t i e s had come t o accept them as a "you he lp us , w e ' l l he lp you" r e l a t i o n s h i p . This approach, however, was hard ly app l i cab le t o t h e i r r e l a t i o n s with the c i t y of Cleveland, s i n c e i t s f i r e f i g h t i n g organiza t ion was and i s s o much l a r g e r and more expensive than the suburban u n i t s t h a t a r e a l element of mutual i ty i s lacking. The c i t y t he re fo re has r e - quired t h a t arrangements with the suburbs be based on s e r v i c e c o n t r a c t s , with a payment f o r each f i r e run made.

The con t r ac t approach may a l s o be more appropr i a t e when the cooperat ing j u r i s d i c t i o n s a r e of d i f f e r e n t types , with d i f f e r e n t o rgan iza t iona l s t r u c t u r e s .

For example, water d i s t r i c t s shar ing common powers and ob jec t ives might conven- i e n t l y e n t e r i n t o j o i n t agreements f o r the development of a new s to rage r e s e r - v o i r ; m u n i c i p a l i t i e s , on the o the r hand, might f i nd i t more expedient merely t o c o n t r s c t with a water d i s t r i c t f o r a c e r t a i n amount of water a t a s t i p u l a t e d charge.

Contracts f o r s e rv i ces a r e p a r t i c u l a r l y wel l adapted f o r providing a commodity type of s e rv i ce such a s water , or a s tandardized t echn ica l s e r v i c e such a s po l i ce r a d i o , c r iminal i nves t iga t ion labora tory f a c i l i t i e s , and e l e c - t r o n i c da ta processing. J o i n t agreements seem t o be b e t t e r adapted t o providing se rv i ces t h a t r equ i r e program development and policy dec i s ions , e . g . , r ec rea - t i o n , planning, and urban renewal.

FACILITATING INTERLOCAL COOPERATION

A number of the surveys of intergovernmental cooperat ion h igh l igh t t he need f o r an i n s t i t u t i o n a l i z e d forum t h a t br ings governments together t o consider p o t e n t i a l a r e a s of cooperat ion and t o explore a l t e r n a t i v e approaches t o the pro- v i s i o n of s e r v i c e s .

Various approaches have been developed t o provide the necessary organiza t ion f o r f a c i l i t a t i n g i n t e r l o c a l con t r ac t ing and agreements.

State Agencies

A number of S t a t e agencies concerned with l o c a l a f f a i r s have developed handbooks, assembled information, and provided a s s i s t a n c e t o governments con- s i d e r i n g i n t e r l o c a l con t r ac t ing and agreements. I n i t s f i r s t annual r e p o r t , the Ca l i fo rn i a Coordinating Council on Urban Policy (subsequently renamed the I n t e r - governmental Council on Urban Growth) recognized t h i s r o l e and recommended t h a t l o c a l governments be supported and encouraged by the S t a t e i n t h e i r e f f o r t s t o - ward intergovernmental cooperat ion and i n the use of con t r ac t s and agreements. The recommendation urged regional a c t i o n t o cope with reg ional problems.38

Officials, which reviews the effective uses of cooperation, and provides a guide to the principal procedures including contracts for services, agreements for joint action, and special county service districts.40 The Bureau of Municipal Affairs in Pennsylvania, whose functions have recently been transferred to the newly established State Office for Community Development, maintains a roster of cooperative agreements in the State which is available, along with sample agreement forms, to any municipality interested in exploring the use of contracts and agreements.

Georgia legislation enacted in 1963 goes a step beyond assistance and provides a positive incentive for cooperative undertakings. It authorizes a greater State share of financial assistance for joint projects than that stipu- lated under basic aid programs. A model act based on the Georgia statute is included in the 1967 State Legislative Program of the Advisory Commission and is reproduced in Appendix G of this Handbook, page 34 . Regional Organizations

More and more, local governments are participating in regional organizations designed to provide a common meeting place for discussing mutual problems and seeking solutions. Such bodies can foster and facilitate intergovernmental contracts and agreements by providing a forum for exploration and negotiation and by offering technical assistance and facilities for exchange of information. The Intergovernmental Cooperation Committee of the Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Metropoli- tan Study Commission, in its final report on intergovernmental cooperation, concluded that there must be a foundation of intergovernmental communication between officials of governments at the high levels and that "a forum for the joint and mutual exploration by the heads of government in the county of the many mutual problems involved the rendering of municipal services is a necessity. "41 The Committee recommended formation of an intergovernmental cooperation advisory council which, among other functions, would assist local governments in making maximum use of formal and informal agreements by actively promoting them.

Today, regional organizations of governments and public officials take many forms, ranging from formally established independent legal entities generally called councils of governments; through less formally structured conferences, committees, and commissions of public officials; to quite informal gatherings. 42

Broad enabling interlocal contracting and agreement statutes may themselves provide a legal basis for establishing a formally structured council of governments. Alternatively, specific authorizing legislation is used in a number of States. The Advisory Commission has developed a model statute authoriaing the establishment of "Regional Councils of Public Officials" with powers to include authority to "promote cooperative arrangements and coordinate action among its members.1143 Such councils provide a continuing formal entity that can serve as a forum for bringing interested governments together. They can be staffed to render professional and technical assistance.

The compact agreement establishing the Mid-Willamette Valley Council of Governments in the Salem, Oregon area includes among its purposes the utiliza- tion of various tools of intergovernmental cooperation, including joint enterprises through formal agreements "within contemporary political structures." Pursuant to this mandate, the Council has conceived, encouraged, administered, and even participated in a number of formal agreements and contracts for joint

under tak ings and f o r t h e p rov i s i on of s e r v i c e s . The Salem a r e a r e g i o n a l t r a n s - p o r t a t i o n s t udy , f o r example, was based on a c o n t r a c t among two c o u n t i e s , t he c i t y , the r e g i o n a l planning counc i l , t h e counc i l of governments, and t h e S t a t e highway department . The r e g i o n a l a i r p o r t was upgraded by a j o i n t agreement i n - vo lv ing t h e two coun t i e s and t h e c i t y of Salem.

They provide a formal y e t f l e x i b l e and adaptable method f o r publ ic j u r i s d i c t i o n s of a l l types and a t a l l l eve l s t o cooperate and share r e s p o n s i b i l i t y f o r providing publ ic s e rv i ces and f a c i l i t i e s .

STATE ASSISTANCE FOR INTERLOCAL COOPERATION

Model Act

Many o rgan i za t i ons of government o f f i c i a l s have recognized the need f o r a u t h o r i t y by l o c a l governments, e s p e c i a l l y i n urban a r e a s , t o coopera te wi th each o the r where the e f f i c i e n t and economical p rovis ion of governmental s e r v i c e s r e q u i r e s f unc t i ons t o be admin is te red w i th in geographic a r e a s l a r g e r than the boundaries of t he e x i s t i n g p o l i t i c a l subd iv i s i ons . Such coopera t ion permits l o c a l governments t o cope more adequate ly wi th a r e a - wide problems, f inance necessary s e r v i c e s on an e q u i t a b l e b a s i s , t ake advantage of t h e economies of s c a l e , and avoid c r e a t i o n of s p e c i a l d i s t r i c t s . There i s included i n t h i s volume proposed s t a t e l e g i s l a t i o n au tho r i z ing l o c a l i t i e s t o p a r t i c i p a t e i n j o i n t under- t ak ings wi th o the r l o c a l i t i e s having common i n t e r e s t s . A t l e a s t 45 s t a t e s have adopted a l l o r a po r t i on of such genera l i n t e r l o c a l coopera t ion a u t h o r i t y .

However, such l e g i s l a t i o n by i t s e l f does no t a c t i v e l y promote j o i n t undertakings nor permit a p o s i t i v e s t a t e r o l e . I n a d d i t i o n , s t a t e s should cons ider the enactment of l e g i s l a t i o n t o a c t i v e l y encourage j o i n t undertakings by l o c a l governments having common program ob j ec t i ve s a f f e c t i n g t he development of urban a r ea s over lapping e x i s t i n g p o l i t i c a l boundaries .

Detailed, factual study of law and practice regarding city-county consolidation and cooperation in Tennessee. Authors conclude that State supervision maximizes cooperative efforts as does specific rather than general authorizing legislation; dominant cities in counties tend to assume some countywide functions; complex and expensive functions are subject of most consolidation and cooperation; ratio of authorized to actual cooperation and consolidation very small.

GUIDELINES ON DEVELOPMENT OF AGREEMENTS AND CONTRACTS

WITH MODELS AND EXAMPLES

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

There i s no one "best way" t o i n i t i a t e an i n t e r l o c a l con t r ac t o r agreement. I n gene ra l , " i n t e r l o c a l cooperat ion should be considered any time a mu- n i c i p a l i t y th inks about adding a new s e r v i c e , improving an e x i s t i n g one, o r i s confronted by a problem t h a t could possibly have area-wide imp l i ca t ions . " l

A l o c a l u n i t may conduct s t u d i e s t o determine what funct ions o r s e rv i ces can b e s t be performed j o i n t l y o r by se rv i ce con t r ac t . In t h i s process , cons ider - a t i o n should be given t o the experiences of o the r u n i t s and t o a l t e r n a t i v e courses of a c t i o n . It should a l s o be determined whether the proposed a r e a s of agreement a r e authorized by S t a t e law, and what procedures a r e requi red f o r t h e i r development. Charters and ordinances a l s o should be checked f o r provis ions t h a t would i n t e r f e r e with an i n t e r l o c a l agreement.

Such prel iminary a c t i v i t i e s may be followed by d iscuss ions with o f f i - c i a l s of o the r government u n i t s , and the establ ishment of an i n t e r l o c a l conunit- t e e t o s tudy the p o s s i b i l i t y of cooperat ion i n depth. Opportunity f o r coopera- t i v e use of f a c i l i t i e s , o r personnel , is normally g rea t e r between juxtaposed o r overlapping u n i t s . With r e spec t t o some func t ions , such a s a j o i n t t r a i n i n g program, the cooperat ing u n i t s need not be contiguous, but they should l i e i n c lose proximity t o each o the r .

THE SERVICE CONTRACT

The s e r v i c e con t r ac t i s one of the o l d e s t and most widely used forms of i n t e r l o c a l cooperat ion. Under t h i s arrangement, one u n i t of l o c a l government con t r ac t s with another t o provide one or more se rv i ces f o r a s t a t e d p r i ce . The terms of the con t r ac t a r e negot ia ted , bu t the supp l i e r has the preponderant i n - f luence i n determining charges and u l t ima te con t ro l of t he admin i s t r a t ion of t he s e r v i c e o r s e r v i c e s .

A government u n i t con t r ac t ing f o r a s e rv i ce should consider: (1) whether the u n i t has the a b i l i t y t o perform the se rv i ce i t s e l f , (2) whether performance of the se rv i ce o r con t r ac t ing f o r the se rv i ce i s more economical, (3) whether the con t r ac to r can provide the quant i ty and/or q u a l i t y of s e r v i c e r equ i r ed , and

(4) whether con t r ac t ing f o r the se rv i ce w i l l adverse ly a f f e c t the i d e n t i t y of the u n i t o r the a b i l i t y of the u n i t t o perform o the r s e rv i ces . A u n i t o f f e r i n g the s e r v i c e should consider i f i t can do so and s t i l l meet the demands of i t s own r e s i d e n t s f o r the s e r v i c e . For example,before con t r ac t ing t o provide f i r e p ro t ec t ion t o another u n i t , i t should be determined whether providing such se rv i ce w i l l weaken the a b i l i t y of a f i r e department t o answer l o c a l c a l l s e f f e c t i v e l y .

JOINT AGREEMENTS

The j o i n t agreement, t he second bas i c method f o r achieving formal, coope ra t ive arrangements, may be w r i t t e n a s a con t r ac t ; but i t i s d is t inguished from the se rv i ce con t r ac t i n t h a t r e s p o n s i b i l i t y f o r the performance of a p a r t i - c u l a r funct ion , o r the opera t ion and cons t ruc t ion of a publ ic f a c i l i t y , i s shared by the p a r t i c i p a t i n g u n i t s .

J o i n t agreements may take a v a r i e t y of forms, bu t u sua l ly , no organiza- t i o n a l o r j u r i s d i c t i o n a l changes a r e requi red . For example, two o r more u n i t s may agree t o maintain a common boundary s t r e e t ; make j o i n t use of s ca rce person- n e l o r expensive equipment; o r j o i n t l y undertake the cons t ruc t ion of sewer f a c i l i t i e s , c i ty-county bu i ld ings , o r r e c r e a t i o n a l f a c i l i t i e s . 2 Local u n i t s may a l s o e n t e r i n t o a mutual a i d agreement und.r which they agree t o provide po l i ce o r f i r e s e rv i ces t o each o the r i n the eve i , of an emergency.3 Provision f o r o rgan iza t iona l changes may be provided by another type of agreement. For example, one of the cooperat ing u n i t s may be spec i f i ed a s the performing o r admin- i s t r a t i v e agency; the o the r u n i t , o r u n i t s , may p a r t i c i p a t e by con t r ibu t ing money, personnel , o r equipment t o be u t i l i z e d by the admin i s t r a t ive agency.4

In some ins t ances , two o r more l o c a l u n i t s may agree t o e s t a b l i s h a j o i n t board, o r agency, t o opera te a common p r o j e c t , o r t o undertake p a r t i c u l a r funct ions . For example, an agency represent ing each of t he cooperat ing p a r t i e s may be given r e s p o n s i b i l i t y f o r the development of an a i r p o r t 5 o r t he implementa- t i o n of a j o i n t purchasing program. Again, a j o i n t board may be e s t ab l i shed t o adminis te r a j o i n t hea l th o r planning d e ~ a r t m e n t . ~ Such boards may have complete r e s p o n s i b i l i t y f o r the adminis t ra t ion of the s e r v i c e o r funct ion , inc luding the h i r i n g of personnel.

Voluntary regional counci l s can be e s t ab l i shed by j o i n t agreement a l s o . Such counci l s a r e usual ly composed of e l ec t ed and appointed o f f i c i a l s r ep resen t - ing the p a r t i c i p a t i n g governments; they serve only a s advisory bodies with power t o d i scuss , t o s tudy, and t o recomend courses of a c t i o n t o member governments. Provision may be made f o r an executive committee and s p e c i a l committees i n v a r i - ous func t iona l o r opera t ional f i e l d s , and, i n a d d i t i o n , f o r var ious forms of i n t e r l o c a l cooperat ion.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the City is desirous of procuring services from the County to enable performance within the City of functions performed by the Building and Safety Division of the Depart- ment of County Engineer in unincorporated territory; and

WHEREAS, the County through said Department i s willing to perform such services on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and

W-HEREAS, both parties hereto are authorized to so contract by virtue of the provisions of Section 56Y2 of the Charter of the County of Los Angeles and Sections 51 301, et seq., of the Government Code;

NOW, THEREFORE, i t i s agreed as follows: 1. County agrees, through its Building and Safety Division of the Department of County

Engineer, to perform within the City all functions performed by said Division in the unincorporated territory of the County which are applicable to the City. County through its Building

and Safety Division may do additional work related to inspection of structures, when requested to do so in writing by City.

2. County agrees to enforce within the City all the provisions of the Building Code, Plumb- ing Code and Electrical Code of said City and to make all inspections and to issue all permits and orders required in such enforcement. Such enforcement shall include all of the duties prescribed in such ordinances including the determination of those matters placed within the jurisdiction of the Board of Appeals by such ordinances and the furnishing of the evidence necessary in any prosecution under ordinances. In performing such work the officers of the County assigned thereto shall have the powers and duties of Building Inspectors of the City.

3. City agrees to furnish and prepare all maps and ordinances required and to furnish or reimburse the County for necessary quarters, public counter, utilities and ianitor service. It i s agreed that the County may use the quarters furnished by the City in the administration of the functions of the County Building and Safety Division without a charge being made by the City so long as such additional use does not increase the cost to the City.

4. County agrees to furnish required furniture, equipment and forms necessary for operation. Any equipment or furniture provided by County shall remain the property of the County. The extent and manner of equipping and furnishing are to be determined by the County.

5. County agrees to make reasonable efforts to collect the fees called for in said City ordinances and to account therefor to the City quarterly. County agrees to pay City, within 60 days following each calendar quarter, all of the excess of receipts over County expenditures for services rendered and City agrees to pay County within said 60 days, any deficit between County expenditures for services and total fees collected.

"Expenditures" for services for the purposes of this agreement shall be the entire cost to said County of performing each such function, including direct costs and a prorate of in- direct costs. Costs shall include but not be limited to salaries of employees engaged therein, vacation, sick leave, retirement, traveling expenses and overhead. County shall annually determine the hourly rate for services applicable to the next ensuing fiscal year and shall notify City of such rate in writing no later than June 1st of each year.

6. It i s further agreed that no employee now employed by the City shall be taken over by the County and that there are no municipal pension rights of any employee of the City to be assumed by the County.

7. This contract shall become effective on and shall continue in

A-16 (concl 'd . )

full force and effect until June 30, . Unless terminated as provided in (8) hereof, this agreement shall be automatically renewed from year to year for successive one ( 1 ) year periods thereafter.

8. This contract may be terminated at the end of any term thereof by City or County giving a written notification of such intention to terminate to the other party before the expiration of the initial period or any succeeding one year period.

This contract may in the sole discretion of the County be sooner terminated at any time that City fails to enact and maintain in full force and effect a Building Code, a Plumbing Code, and an Electrical Code identical in all material respects with the corresponding codes now in force in the County or should City fail to adopt and maintain an ordinance establishing standards for tradesmen plying their trades within said City equal to the standards prescribed by ordinance for tradesmen within the County or in event City refuses to accept as evidence of qualification the County's certificate thereof.

Further, in the sole and exclusive discretion of the County, this contract may be terminated by County if City does not enact amendments to said codes or ordinances corresponding to amendments to parallelling County codes and ordinances adopted by the Board of Super- visors, said City to so adopt within 60 days after being requested to do so by the County. The Building and Safety Division, acting in behalf of the County, may use discretion with respect to recommending parallelling amendments and may waive the requirement of such an enactment by City should such Division deem it appropriate under the circumstances.

Should either party hereto be in default hereunder, the nondefaulting party shall give written notice of such default and should such be not corrected within 30 days after the mail- ing of notice thereof this contract may be terminated by the nondefaulting party by giving written notice thereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the said County has by order of its Board of Supervisors caused these presents to be subscribed by the Chairman of said Board, and the seal of said Board to be afixed and attested by the Clerk thereof, and the said City has caused these presents to be subscribed by its Mayor and the seal of said City to be affixed and attested by the Clerk thereof this day of
