The Board of Supervisors is authorized to enter
into intergovernmental cooperation agreements with Ontelaunee Township
with regard to all roadways in and near the vicinity of the common
boundaries between Maidencreek Township and Ontelaunee Township, which
may include, but shall not be limited to, Dries Road, Slater Road
and Bewley Lane, and provide for allocating and/or sharing maintenance,
repair, winter maintenance, construction, and reconstruction, including
stormwater, drainage, and drainage facilities related to the same,
both now and in the future. The agreement shall authorize (but not
compel) joint bidding for road projects concerning roadways on or
near the common boundaries when deemed to be in the best interest
of both townships. The intergovernmental cooperation agreement proposed
with this section is appended hereto marked "Exhibit A" and made part
of this article.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: Exhibit A is on file in the Township offices.
The terms, conditions and provisions of the
intergovernmental cooperation agreement between Ontelaunee Township
and Maidencreek Township are incorporated herein by reference.
Any substantial modification or waiver to the
intergovernmental cooperation agreement shall be effective only if
made with the same formality as the agreement authorized by this article.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, both townships reserve
the right to make minor adjustments and changes to the agreement at
any time and from time to time by joint resolution of each respective
Board of Supervisors, which may from time to time be recommended by
the respective road masters of each township, and which does not fundamentally
change the nature and scope of this intergovernmental cooperation
agreement. The failure of either township to insist on strict performance
of any of the provisions of the agreement shall not be construed as
a waiver of any other term, condition, or provision thereof, or any
subsequent default of the same or similar nature.
