The provisions of the Act provide local governments with the opportunity to create public-private partnerships for the development of a wide range of projects for public use if the County of Albemarle determines there is a need for the project and that the private involvement may provide the project to the public in a timely or cost-effective fashion.
On May 9, 2019, draft PPEA Guidelines were presented to the Board for consideration. The Board directed staff to present the Guidelines to the School Board for its adoption, then bring them back to the Board for its adoption. The School Board adopted the attached draft PPEA Guidelines (Attachment A) on May 23, 2019.
