granted by this Division 19 jointly and cooperatively with another city,
village or incorporated town or county and it is agreed pursuant to the
provisions of Section 11-19-7 that there shall be a joint garbage
department to be operated as an intermunicipal function, employees assigned

existing or hereinafter created, appertaining to any municipal employee
assigned to any joint garbage department shall continue to exist as rights,
privileges or benefits without regard to such assignment and as if this
amendatory act of 1957 had not been adopted.
