Public/Private Partnerships

Special Notice

The Maryland-National Capital Park & Planning Commission has Special Public/Private Partnership Announcements, which we would like to share with the public for comments:

IMMEDIATE RELEASE! Due to the significant reduction in the Department of Parks current FY10 and projected FY11- FY12 Budgets, effective immediately, all unsolicited Public/Private Partnership Proposal applications have been suspended until further notice.

The Department can no longer expend its limited funding resources in support of receiving, evaluating, and managing unsolicited partnership proposals that are not part of the current annual work plan for the Department of Parks.

The Department will consider exceptions to this position if an unsolicited public/private partnership proposal:

  • Is financially and managerially self-sustaining;
  • Has the capacity to generate significant revenue to the Department;
  • Is in fulfillment of an approved work project or program; and
  • Submits a minimum application fee of $5K to cover staff time to review, evaluate, and process the proposal for Montgomery County Planning Board review and consideration.

The following information will aid individuals or groups interested in pursuing a partnership with the Department:
