Council approves acceptance of approximately $635,000 USDA reimbursement grant for after-school meals and sponsorship with Georgia Nutritional Services
Summary
The council approved an ordinance to apply for and accept an approximately $635,000 reimbursement grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Child and Adult Care Food Program for the after-school meal services program and authorized a sponsorship agreement with Georgia Nutritional Services.
The Atlanta City Council voted to approve an ordinance authorizing the application for and acceptance of an approximately $635,000 reimbursement grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Child and Adult Care Food Program to support the city’s after-school meal services program. The ordinance also authorizes a sponsorship agreement with a provider listed in the transcript as Georgia Nutritional Services.
Unidentified Speaker 1 recorded the approval and noted the item "was sent to the mayor's office posthaste." The legislative minute does not list vote tallies or the specific terms of the sponsorship agreement. The transcript spells the vendor name as "Georgia nutritional services"; the article uses the capitalization "Georgia Nutritional Services" for consistency and clarity, but the transcript does not provide legal vendor details.
The grant is described as a reimbursement-type award from the USDA Child and Adult Care Food Program; the legislative minute does not include implementation timelines or the number of meals to be covered by the award.
