AN ACT to amend the general municipal law, in relation to  the  perform-
  ance of municipal cooperative activities

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subdivision 1 of section 119-o  of  the  general  municipal
law,  as  amended by chapter 623 of the laws of 1998, is amended to read
as follows:
  1. In addition to any other general or special powers vested in munic-
ipal corporations, DISTRICTS, and SCHOOL districts for  the  performance
of  their  respective  functions,  powers or duties on   an  individual,
cooperative, joint or contract basis, municipal corporations,  DISTRICTS
and  SCHOOL  districts shall have power to enter into, amend, cancel and
terminate agreements for the performance among themselves or one for the
other of their respective functions, powers and duties on a  cooperative
or  contract  basis  or  for the provision of a joint service or a joint
water, sewage or drainage project.  Notwithstanding the foregoing  grant
of authority, the temporary investment of moneys by more than one munic-
ipal  corporation,  DISTRICT  or SCHOOL district pursuant to a municipal
cooperation agreement which meets the definition of "cooperative invest-
ment agreement" as set forth in article three-A of this chapter shall be
in compliance with all of the requirements of that article.  Any  agree-
ment  entered  into  hereunder  shall  be approved by each participating
municipal corporation, DISTRICT or SCHOOL district by a majority vote of
the voting  strength of its governing body. Where the authority  of  any
municipal  corporation  or  district  to perform by itself any function,
power and duty or to provide by itself any facility, service,  activity,
project or undertaking or the financing thereof is, by any other general
or  special  law, subject to a public hearing, a mandatory or permissive
referendum, consents of governmental  agencies,  or  other  requirements
applicable  to the making of contracts, then its right to participate in
an agreement hereunder shall be similarly conditioned.
  S 2. This act shall take effect July 1, 2013.
