Summary

The district's Food Service Committee voted to go to bid for a food service management company and to post for a self-operated food service coordinator; the board expects a final decision at the June meeting.

The Hinckley-Big Rock Food Service Committee recommended that the district simultaneously issue a request for proposals for a new Food Service Management Company and post a job opening for a self-operated food service coordinator. The board recorded the committee's recommendation during its March 18 meeting and indicated a final decision will be made at the June board meeting.

Committee members told the board that issuing bids and filling a coordinator position are parallel approaches intended to give the district options for how to operate meals going forward. The recommendation was procedural; no formal contract award was made at the March meeting.
