§ 120b.107. Authority of cities.

(a)  A city of the second class, second class A or third class that established a 911 system prior to September 7, 1990 may exercise the powers and duties of counties under the act.
(b)  The procedure for filing a 911 plan shall be the same as for counties and as outlined in §  120b.103 (relating to development of county plan).
(c)  A city of the second class, second class A or third class may establish a 911 system if the county in which it is located elects not to exercise their respective powers and duties as provided for under the act.
(d)  For a city of the second class, second class A or third class to exercise the authority as provided for in subsection (c), the city shall first file a written notice of intent by registered mail with the county indicating the city’s intention to proceed with the development of a 911 plan. The county shall provide the city with a response within 60 days as to whether the county plans to proceed with the establishment of a 911 plan. If the county fails to respond to the city within the 60-day time period or if the county indicates that it does not plan to initiate a 911 system for at least 2 years, the city may proceed with the development of its own plan. Documentation of failure to respond by the county or evidence that the county will not develop a 911 system within 2 years shall be provided by the city as part of the plan.
(e)  A city of the second class, second class A or third class that has an existing 911 system or establishes a 911 system in the future shall do so only within the geographic boundaries unless the county and city agree that the city system shall become a component of the county plan.
(f)  A contribution rate that is levied by a city of the second class, second class A or third class by authority of the act shall only be imposed upon and collected from the subscribers within the municipal boundaries of the city.
