§2033. Contracts; construction and law enforcement
A. All contracts of an authority for the construction, improvement, repair, or maintenance of any project shall be made and awarded under the same conditions, terms, requirements, and provisions as are provided by law with respect to contracts of the state for state-designated projects, or a parish for parish-related projects, or a municipality for municipal-related projects. In the making and awarding of such contracts, the authority shall be under the same duties and responsibilities with respect thereto as are now imposed by law, from time to time, including Part XIII of Chapter 1 of this Title, relative to the awarding of contracts for public works, provided that all contracts of an authority for the construction, improvement, repair, or maintenance of any state-designated project shall be made and awarded under the same conditions, terms, requirements, and provisions as are now provided for with respect to contracts of the department, and in the making and awarding of such contracts, the authority shall be under the same duties and responsibilities with respect thereto as are now imposed upon the department, including Part II of Chapter 10 of Title 38 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes of 1950, as amended.
B. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, an authority may contract with a private entity to provide services for design, cost estimate, feasibility studies, operations, management, and construction management services, provided that any contract awarded for such services shall be awarded only after the authority drafts and uses a request for proposal seeking proposals from qualified providers. Notice of such request for proposals shall be published twice, once a week for two weeks, in the official journal of the authority and once in at least one trade journal.
Such notice shall give a brief description of the services sought where a complete request for proposal form may be obtained and the deadline for response to the proposal, which shall be no less than thirty days from the last publication in the official journal. Nothing in this Subsection shall be construed to allow contracts for the construction, improvement, repairs, or maintenance of tollways to be awarded in any manner other than as set forth in Subsection A.
C. Any authority created hereunder shall contract with either the state police, a law enforcement district, or municipal law enforcement agency for law enforcement and patrol functions.
