            The Senate unanimously passed Senate Bill 1141.  This bill would permit a township to transfer real and personal property to a council of governments or any other entity created by an intergovernmental cooperation agreement without following public notification and bidding requirements. 

The Second Class Township Code currently permits the transfer of real and personal property to 17 types of governmental, utility, and non-profit agencies without requiring notification and bidding. 

The bill is now in the House.
