                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

SYSTEMS OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION FOR CERTAIN COUNTIES OR CITIES (§ 15.2-947)

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the governing body of any county or
city not a member of a transportation district, upon finding a need for a system
of public transportation and the inability of the governing body to reach a
reasonable agreement for membership with an existing transportation district,
may create, operate, maintain or contract for a system of public transportation
to be operated in such county or city for the safety, comfort and convenience of
the public. The governing body of any such county or city providing a system of
public transportation or desiring to provide such a system may contract with any
authority providing public transportation in contiguous localities for
transportation services or the interchange of passengers for the purpose of
providing continuous service between localities.
