### sec.10 Power includes power to conduct joint government activities A local government may exercise its powers by cooperating with 1 or more other local, State or Commonwealth governments to conduct a joint government activity. A joint government activity includes providing a service, or operating a facility, that involves the other governments. The cooperation with another government may take any form, including for example— entering into an agreement; or creating a joint local government entity, or joint government entity, to oversee the joint government activity. A joint government activity may be set up for more than 1 purpose.

A local government may exercise a power in another government’s area for the purposes of a joint government activity, in the way agreed by the governments. However, if the power is to be exercised under a local law, the local law must expressly state that it applies to the other government’s area.
