68-582. Designation of secondary arterial highways, when; cooperative financing; agreement; use of funds. The board of any county and the governing body of any city may by resolution propose the designation as a secondary arterial highway any existing street or a portion thereof, or a proposed new street within a city in such county which is or would be a connecting link between county roads and may enter into an agreement providing for the cooperative financing of the construction, reconstruction, maintenance and repair of such proposed secondary arterial highway under such terms as the board and governing body shall agree upon. Such designation and agreement shall set out the secondary arterial highway designation and its location, a general description of the proposed improvement and an estimate of the total cost thereof to each such city and county exclusive of any grants from any other public agency, and shall become effective upon publication by the city in its official newspaper and by the county in its official newspaper. Such agreement may be part of an agreement between the secretary of transportation, the county and the city. Any such agreement shall provide for sharing the costs of engineering and construction or other improvement of the designated secondary arterial highway, and for future maintenance by the city or by the county, upon such terms as the board and governing body may agree. The board and governing body of any county and city which have entered into such agreements may use any public funds available to such county or city for the construction, improvement or maintenance of such secondary arterial highway in like manner as if it were a normal county road or a city street, may each issue bonds as provided in K.S.A. 68-584, and amendments thereto and may each levy an annual tax upon the assessed tangible valuation in such county or city for such purpose and to pay a portion of the principal and interest on bonds issued under the authority of K.S.A. 12-1774, and amendments thereto, by cities located in the county.
