HB 2157 expands information included in an intergovernmental agreement and sets a 10 per cent cap on third party administrative costs.

History

Current law allows authorized public agencies to enter into intergovernmental agreements [IGAs] for contracting services or jointly exercising common powers. Each IGA must specify the duration and purpose of the contract or agreement, the manner of financing the joint undertaking and budget information, and the permissible methods used for terminating the contract or agreement. HB 2157 requires an additional provision be included in the contract or agreement when applicable. The provision stipulates that any separate entity or organization that is designated to provide services to, administer, execute or be funded by the agreement for the parties must be recorded in the document.

In addition, HB 2157 limits a public agency of spending no more than 10 per cent of available IGA monies on administrative costs associated with any separate entity contracted as a third party in an IGA.

Provisions

· Requires any separate entity providing services to IGA participants to be documented within the IGA.
