(3) A county governing body may contract with another county 
governing body of a PSAP for the provision of 911 PSAP services 
provided that the moneys distributed to any such county governing body 
pursuant to K.S.A. 12-5374, and amendments thereto, shall only be used 
as authorized by this section. If a governing body serves as the provider 
of PSAP services for another governing body, both governing bodies 
shall enter into a contract or memorandum of agreement that addresses 
contingency plans and overflow arrangements. Any such contract or 
memorandum of agreement shall be reviewed by the 911 coordinating 
council with respect to the provisions that relate to contingency plans 
and overflow arrangements or that may conflict with the function of the 
statewide 911 system. If the 911 coordinating council determines that 
any such provisions are not acceptable, the 911 coordinating council 
and the governing bodies shall collaborate and work to resolve such 
concerns prior to the effective date of such contract or memorandum of 
agreement. Any governing body contracting with another governing 
body of a PSAP for the provision of 911 PSAP services shall establish in 
the contract or memorandum of agreement an agreed upon percentage 
of the governing body's distribution amount for the LCPA to distribute to 
the governing body of the PSAP that is providing the 911 services.
(b) The 911 coordinating council shall, pursuant to rules and 
regulations, establish a process for a PSAP or county governing body that 
contracts with another county governing body of a PSAP for the provision 
of 911 PSAP services, at the discretion of the PSAP, to seek pre-approval 
of an expenditure. The council shall respond in writing to any pre-approval 
request within 30 days and inform the PSAP if stating whether the 
requested expenditure is approved or disapproved. If the expenditure is 
disapproved, the written notification shall state the reason for the
