3. Any local government unit may enter into an agreement with a business entity or nonprofit organization located within or near the local government unit to provide for the maintenance, operation, or improvement of a park or any portion thereof located within the local government unit, at no cost to the local government unit except as provided pursuant to section 4 of P.L.1992, c.101 (C.40:12-23). No such park maintenance, operation, or improvement agreement may be entered into unless the business entity or nonprofit organization successfully demonstrates to the local government unit that the business entity or nonprofit organization is capable of maintaining, operating, or improving the park according to the agreed upon terms and conditions. A park maintenance, operation, or improvement agreement shall be for such period as may be agreed upon by the local government unit and the business entity or nonprofit organization, and may be terminated by the business entity or nonprofit organization upon at least six months' notice to the local government unit, or by the local government unit at any time without prior notice to the business entity or nonprofit organization, for any reason, including, but not limited to, failure of the participating business entity or nonprofit organization to comply with any term or condition of the park maintenance, operation, or improvement agreement.
