Kitchen equipment: The board approved a quote from Oswald Restaurant Supply for a Vulcan convection oven and AccuTemp steamers for Grove Valley and Rose Union elementaries, plus a True Display food merchandiser for Deer Creek High School, at a total cost of $63,510.85 to be paid from the child nutrition fund. Staff noted the items will update kitchen capacity and increase meal-service options.
Line boards: The board approved purchase of 12 line boards and balance boxes from Howard Technology for $33,725. Staff clarified a funding source discrepancy on the record and confirmed the purchase would be paid from the general fund; motion carried 4-0.
