(a) Subject to the limitations of this article, the authority may utilize the CMGC project delivery method for public transit projects within its jurisdiction. (b) The authority may enter into a CMGC project delivery method contract pursuant to this article if, after evaluation of the traditional design-bid-build process of construction and of the CMGC project delivery method in a public meeting, the authority makes a written finding that use of the CMGC project delivery method on the specific project under consideration will accomplish one or more of the following objectives: reduce project costs, expedite the project’s completion, or provide features not achievable through the design-bid-build method. This finding shall be made prior to the authority entering into a CMGC project delivery method contract. In the CMGC project delivery method proposal, the written findings shall be included as part of an application for state funds for a transit project. (Added by Stats. 2013, Ch. 320, Sec. 1.
