Nottoway board adopts PPEA guidelines to pursue court-ordered courthouse work

Nottoway County Board of Supervisors · March 21, 2025

Summary

The board voted to adopt guidelines enabling use of the Public-Private Education Facilities and Infrastructure Act (PPEA) to solicit private proposals to renovate or rebuild the courthouse complex to meet a court order; staff and commenters said PPEA can limit maximum contract price and speed delivery.

The Nottoway County Board of Supervisors voted to adopt guidelines allowing the county to use the Public-Private Education Facilities and Infrastructure Act (PPEA) as a procurement route for the courthouse renovation mandated by a court order. County staff explained that the PPEA provides a structured way to receive private proposals and that procurement under the act can include contract terms that cap maximum county exposure.

A member of the courthouse committee told the board that PPEA would let the county "use a professional group to put together everything from start to end" and highlighted a maximum-cost provision as protection against runaway construction costs. After public comment and brief discussion about timelines, the board approved PPEA use so staff can solicit proposals promptly; staff noted a July deadline to submit proposals and said adopting the guidelines today preserves the county's ability to meet that schedule.
