Summary
This Act creates a five year pilot program for the use of public-private partnership agreements in school construction and capital improvement projects. The contracting flexibility provided by this Act will allow school districts to enter into design construct, design construct and operate or privately funded arrangements for qualified school construction projects pursuant to a competitive process approved by the local school board. This will allow school districts to streamline the procurement process, avoid duplication and experience cost savings. Approval of projects is subject to the availability of funds for construction and the Department of Education must approve projects in excess of one million dollars. All contracts entered into pursuant this pilot program must comply with any applicable laws, regulations, ordinances and codes, including prevailing wage requirements.
Title
