Summary/Abstract: Public-private partnership in Poland has been a subject of many disputes for many years, but its development is rather modest. In the beginning lack and further mismatch of law were treated as the main obstacles, afterwards a neccesity to fulfill Maastricht criteria and Eurostat reporting requirements. Despite quite low development of PPP projects in Poland it seems that the analysis of local government units (LGUs) involvement into such projects should be undertaken. The analysis shows that LGUs have been more active, especially in the last 5 years. The biggest involvement was generated by poviat towns, and mainly with the status of metropolis. Other types of LGUs were also more active than in previous years. The biggest projects have related to IT, waste, and revitalization sectors. In smaller LGUs PPP projects were focused on low-energy investments, and also in water-sewage, sport and tourism, health, transport, and culture sectors.
