1. A local government may borrow money or purchase or lease property or facilities from a nonprofit corporation or trustee in conjunction with one or more other local governments, and in connection therewith may sell or lease property or facilities to the nonprofit corporation or trustee, in each case with such maturity, term, payment, security, pledge, default, remedy, prepayment, redemption, interest rate and other terms or provisions as may be specified in the loan, loan purchase, installment sale, lease or other agreement or note entered into by the local government for that purpose if:
(a) Each participating local government determines that it will benefit from economies of scale in borrowing money or purchasing or leasing property in conjunction with one or more other local governments pursuant to this section; and
(b) In the case of borrowing to finance operations and other noncapital purposes, the amount borrowed and the interest payable thereon, at the initial interest rate if interest is variable, does not exceed 85 percent of the estimated amount of uncollected taxes, income, revenue, cash receipts and other money of the local government which will be available during the term of the agreement for the repayment of the loan and the interest thereon. As used in this paragraph, "revenue" includes, without limitation, federal and state money received by the local government.

A local government may also do all things and execute all documents that may be necessary or desirable in connection with the issuance of certificates of participation, or other interests, in any loan, note, installment sale, lease or other agreement of the local government entered into pursuant to this section or otherwise necessary to effectuate the purposes of this section, and may authorize a nonprofit corporation or trustee to act as its agent for purposes of entering into any trust, liquidity, credit, investment or other agreement in connection with financing pursuant to this section.
3. This section provides a complete, additional and alternative method for accomplishing the acts authorized by this section and must be liberally construed to accomplish its purposes.
