74.1. Where an agreement contemplated in section 73 provides that the organization or maintenance of a police force is entrusted to an intermunicipal management board, the latter is a municipality within the meaning of this Act and for these purposes, its board of directors, the chairman of the board and the secretary of the management board act as municipal council, mayor and secretary-treasurer or clerk.
The management board then has the powers and responsibilities of a municipality under this Act; in particular, it has the exclusive right to request an inquiry in accordance with the first paragraph of section 21 — a municipality being a party to the agreement being then entitled, as a citizen, to request the Commission to make such an inquiry — and the power to pass a by-law contemplated in section 65 or a resolution contemplated in section 79.
