(55 ILCS 75/9) (from Ch. 23, par. 2689)
Sec. 9.
Nothing in this Act prevents the county board of any county
maintaining a county shelter care or detention home from making a
binding agreement with the county board of any other county to accept
and place in its shelter care or detention home any minor in need of
shelter care or detention from that other county after the needs of the
county maintaining the home have been met. Such agreements may run for
any period of time and upon such terms of defraying the costs of shelter
care or detention as the respective county boards may conclude. Such
counties maintaining a county shelter care or detention home may also
make agreements for any term of years and upon such terms as they may
conclude with the authorities of any city government within the county
or any other unit of government to share facilities for shelter care or
detention, psychiatric and psychological testing and rehabilitative
services related to shelter care or detention, together with space for
the administration of juvenile services which fall within the powers of
any participating governmental unit.
