Board approves $71,145.76 purchase of cafeteria equipment from Cooks Direct
Summary
The Red Oak ISD board approved replacing end‑of‑life cafeteria equipment across multiple campuses, awarding a $71,145.76 purchase order to Cooks Direct under VIBE board contract 683-22 in a 7–0 vote.
A district staff presenter requested approval to replace aging cafeteria equipment at several campuses and recommended Cooks Direct as the lowest-price vendor. "This purchase is for 2 pass through heated cabinets and 1 reach in refrigerator at Bridle Oak Middle School, 1 pass through refrigerator at Red Oak Elementary, and 1 reach in refrigerator at RPS to replace old and nonworking equipment that have reached their end of life," the presenter said. Quotes were obtained from multiple vendors and the presenter said warranty information and price were considered in the recommendation.
Board member Miss Knight moved to approve the purchase from Cooks Direct in the amount of $71,145.76 using VIBE board contract 683-22; the motion was seconded and the chair recorded the motion as passing 7–0. The board did not request additional competitive pricing details on the record during the discussion.
