Analysis of Equity in Two Community-Based Public-Private Partnerships Focused on Green Stormwater Infrastructure
Abstract
Community-based public private partnerships (CBP3s) are a novel approach in providing
green stormwater infrastructure improvements and community co-benefits. The two long-term
CBP3s in our study were located in Prince George’s County, Maryland and the City of
Chester, Pennsylvania. We investigated policies, conducted interviews, and assessed
stakeholders to better understand equity dimensions in the CBP3s and make recommendations
for improvement. Our findings explore contexts around each case study, outcomes to
date, data tracking, and how key themes related to equity and considerations around
gentrification are described and incorporated. Major differences were identified in
community buy-in and stakeholder involvement across our two cases. Recommendations
of our study include better incorporating equity into CBP3s, more tracking of key
metrics, and increased coordination between those involved in the partnerships.
