The contract, described by staff as city-funded and intended to supply prepackaged convenience foods and refreshments for recreation centers, was presented to the committee as a cumulative two-year purchase agreement. Alex Weatherup, assistant director for the city's General Services Department (GSD), told the committee the contract’s healthy-component scope \"includes applesauce, baby carrots, clementine oranges. There's also prepared foods like a sandwich tray, granola bars, and then light preparation items like hot dogs, shredded chicken.\" He said the contract provides flexibility to supply food at any rec-center events and can be expanded to other city locations as needed.

The item drew sustained questions from councilmembers about menu specifics, who would receive the food and whether dietary accommodations such as Kosher meals could be provided. \"Can we just explain the, what kind of food we're gonna be getting? Talk about a healthy component,\" said Member Benson during the discussion. Benson also asked whether the contract included plans to identify events in advance and whether foods would serve children, seniors or other programming groups; Weatherup said the contract is meant to supply programming as needed and that specific event lists were not part of the procurement presented.

Committee members raised health concerns about some items on the sample list. \"Why hot dogs… those aren't healthy,\" a member said, urging the city to remove pork hot dogs; Weatherup responded, \"I can confirm they are they're beef hot dogs.\" He also said the city could make Kosher options a requirement \"as needed.\" The committee asked staff to provide a menu and more detail about distribution plans before final approval in formal session.

The committee formally moved the contract to the upcoming formal session with a recommendation for approval; the motion passed with no objections on the floor. The contract period was stated as two years beginning upon city council approval with a total value of $210,000.

The discussion occurred during a routine agenda slot and did not include a final, roll-call vote on the contract itself; committee members directed staff to supply additional procurement and program details before the item returns for final action.","Detroit committee moved a $210,000, two-year contract with Atlas Wholesale Food Company to formal session after members pressed staff for details about healthy menu items, Kosher options and how food will be distributed at rec-center events.","actionData","errors"]
