§ 24.117 COOPERATIVE PURCHASING
   (A)   The city may enter into an agreement for cooperative purchasing with any other local public agency. When the contracting local public agency contracts for supplies, services, or construction pursuant to KRS 45A.365, 45A.370, 45A.375 or 45A.380, all other parties to the agreement shall be deemed to have complied with the provisions of those sections.
   (B)   Nothing in KRS 45A.345 through 45A.990 shall deprive the city from negotiating with vendors for supplies where the supplies are the subject of a price agreement with the state. However, no contract executed under this section would authorize a price higher than is contained in the price agreement with the state for the specific supplies.
