USE OF SCHOOL BUSES FOR PUBLIC AND COMMERCIAL PURPOSES (§ 22.1-182)

The school board of any school division may enter into agreements with any
third-party logistics company, the governing body of any county, city, or town
in the school division, any state agency, or any agency established or
identified pursuant to P.L. 89-73 or any law amendatory or supplemental thereto
providing for the use of the school buses of such school division by such
third-party logistics company or agency or by departments, boards, commissions,
or officers of such county, city, or town for public purposes, including
transportation for the elderly, or private purposes, except that such
third-party logistics company shall not use the school buses to provide
transportation of passengers for compensation or for residential delivery of
products for compensation. Each such agreement shall provide for reimbursing the
school board in full for the proportionate share of any and all costs, both
fixed and variable, of such buses incurred by such school board attributable to
the use of such buses pursuant to such agreement. Each such agreement shall also
require the third-party logistics company, governing body, state agency, or
agency established or identified pursuant to P.L. 89-73 or any law amendatory or
supplemental thereto to supply insurance on the school bus that meets the
minimum coverage requirements in § 22.1-190. The third-party logistics company,
governing body, state agency, or agency established or identified pursuant to
P.L. 89-73 or any law amendatory or supplemental thereto shall indemnify and
hold harmless the school board from any and all liability of the school board by
virtue of use of such buses pursuant to an agreement authorized herein.
