§ 8-22-2-14 — Joint activities; joint board of aviation commissioners

Eligible entities may jointly acquire,
construct, develop, improve, equip, or extend airports or property to be
used for aviation purposes and maintain, operate, manage, and control
it and levy and collect taxes for this purpose. Two (2) or more entities
may cooperate for this purpose by contributing to the total cost and
sharing the benefits and bearing the obligations accruing from it on
terms that they agree upon and evidence by contract. The joint activity
is subject to the same provisions and requirements provided for such
activity if carried on by any one (1) of the entities individually, except
that the joint board of aviation commissioners may be composed of
more than four (4) but not more than seven (7) members and the
maximum allowance may be increased correspondingly. In case of
failure of agreement between two (2) or more entities upon petition
filed by one (1) or more of the entities involved, the aeronautics
commission of Indiana, after investigation and hearing, shall determine
and prescribe reasonable and equitable participation including
representation on the joint governing board and shall prescribe other
rules and regulations as necessary.
