(i) By the contribution of funds from one (1) or more participating agencies which would be available to each agency if proceeding individually;

(ii) By bond issues by one (1) or more participating agencies to construct, improve or acquire an interest in any facility in the same manner as bonds may be issued by the agency for its individual construction, improvement or acquisition of such a facility;

(iv) By facilities privately owned and leased to two (2) or more agencies or a joint powers board if the lease agreement provides that upon termination of the lease agreement title to the facilities vests in the participating agencies;

(v) By gifts, donations or grants of federal money;
