XII-1 Cooperation with other units of government—transfer of powers and functions
Agreements, including those for cooperative or joint administration of any function or power, may be made by the council with any other local government, with the State, or with the United States unless otherwise provided by law or by this charter. The council may transfer to the borough in which this City is located any of the City’s powers and functions unless prohibited by law or this charter and may, in a like manner revoke the transfer. Such agreement for cooperative or joint administration of any function or power, or such transfer of any power or function to the borough, or the revocation of any such transfer shall be made only by a non-emergency ordinance or by authority of such ordinance. The ordinance shall be published in full within ten days after its passage and shall be subject to referendum procedures as provided in this charter if a legal and sufficient referendum petition is properly filed. Procedures for making contracts prescribed in any other sections of this charter shall not apply to agreements made pursuant to this section.
