purpose of participating with the authority in providing for the construction,
reconstruction, improvement, or repair and financing of a jail and appurtenant
facilities for the use and benefit of all local governments agreeing to the
cooperative undertaking, but the authority shall determine the number and
location of regional jails and regional detention centers, as authorized by KRS
