N.Y. General Municipal Law § 119-k: Authorization to participate

§ 119-k. Authorization to participate. Before any municipality shall

participate in a joint project pursuant to this article, it shall

authorize such participation by taking the same procedural steps which

it would be required to take if it proposed to effectuate such

improvements itself. Other municipalities may be permitted to

participate in the joint project by making a lump sum contribution in

such amount and such manner as the original participating municipalities

may determine.
