44	81		11 construction, alteration, repair, improvement, or maintenance
45	82		12 work on the public way, the sanitary district may enter into an
46	83		13 intergovernmental agreement with the unit of local government

48	85		15 sanitary district on the same project, in an amount no greater
49	86		16 than $100,000, to save taxpayer funds and eliminate
50	87		17 duplication of government effort. The sanitary district and
51	88		18 the other unit of local government shall, before work is
52	89		19 performed by either unit of local government on a project,
53	90		20 adopt a resolution by a majority vote of both governing bodies
54	91		21 certifying work will occur at a specific location, the reasons
55	92		22 why both units of local government require work to be
56	93		23 performed in the same location, and the projected cost savings
57	94		24 if work is performed by both units of local government on the
58	95		25 same project. Officials or employees of the sanitary district
