Kentucky Revised Statutes Title IX. Counties, Cities, and Other Local Units § 65.260.Limitations upon agreements; approval by Attorney General or Department for Local Government; exemptions

(3)(a) In lieu of the requirements of subsection (2) of this section, agreements involving only local governments, an agency, board, instrumentality, or commission created exclusively by one (1) or more local governments, or any combination thereof, shall prior to and as a condition precedent to its entry into force, be submitted to the Department for Local Government. The department shall determine whether the agreement is in proper form and shall approve any agreement submitted to it under this subsection unless it finds that the agreement does not meet the requirements set out in KRS 65.210 to 65.300. If the agreement does not meet these requirements, the department shall detail, in writing, addressed to the public agencies concerned, the specific respects in which the proposed agreement fails to meet the requirements of KRS 65.210 to 65.300. The failure of the department to disapprove an agreement submitted under this subsection within thirty (30) days of its submission shall constitute approval thereof.

(b) The approval of an agreement by the Department for Local Government under paragraph (a) of this subsection shall be deemed final and conclusive that the agreement meets the requirements of KRS 65.210 to 65.300, and the agreement shall not thereafter be subject to challenge as to the validity of its formation.

(a) Only the construction, reconstruction, or maintenance of a municipal road or bridge, provided a written agreement is approved by each of the affected governing bodies of the public agencies, or the administrative head of a public agency if there is no governing body; or

(b) Interlocal cooperative agreements between school boards and local governments.
