Introduced by: S. Chris Jones | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles | history

SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE:

Public-Private Transportation Act of 1995; review of proposals. Requires public entities to post a notice, when they receive a proposal under the PPTA, and allow a 120-day submission period for competing proposals. The bill requires the notice to include information on the proposal and the public comment opportunities. The bill further requires, after negotiations are complete and a decision to award is made, that the public entity post the major business points of the agreement and outline how the public can submit comments. This bill is identical to SB 977.

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Public-Private Transportation Act; receipt of competing proposals; disclosure of major business points. Requires that within 30 days of the receipt of an unsolicited proposal for the development or operation of a qualified transportation facility, a responsible public entity shall post a public notice of the unsolicited proposal on the Department of General Service's electronic procurement website and provide 120 days for the submission of any competing proposals. The bill specifies that the notice is to include specific information regarding the nature, timing, and scope of the qualifying transportation facility, and that the responsible public entity must afford opportunities for public comment on the proposals submitted. The bill also requires that once the negotiation phase for the development of an interim or a comprehensive agreement is complete and a decision to award has been made by a responsible public entity, the responsible public entity is required to post the major business points of the interim or comprehensive agreement. The bill contains technical amendments.
