Bill Title: Creates the Public-Private Transportation Act of 2009. Finds that the public need for timely development and operation of transportation facilities may not be wholly satisfied by the existing methods of delivering those services, and authorizing private entities to deliver those services to the public may be more timely, more efficient, or less costly. Provides that a private entity may enter into comprehensive agreements with the State and any agency or authority thereof, any city, village, incorporated town, or county and any other political subdivision of any of the foregoing for the development or operation of transportation facilities. Allows for the comprehensive agreement between the public and private entities to include a maximum rate of return for the private entity on the development or operation of the transportation facility, and provides for the allowable methods of compensation for both the public and private parties. Provides detailed rules and procedures for: the dedication of public property for a transportation facility, the powers and duties of the private entity, interim and service agreements, financing, material default and remedies, condemnation, crossing of utility lines, sovereign immunity, public disclosure, and procurement, among others. Amends the Freedom of Information Act to provide exemptions for certain proprietary information related to the new Act. Effective immediately.
