Board discusses food-service RFP and invites wellness committee involvement
Summary
Staff outlined the RFP process for the district's Food Service Management Contract and invited board and community participation on the wellness committee; directors asked about contract length, alternatives to current vendor Sodexo, and community input.
Assistant Superintendent/Operations Brad Earl briefed the board on the Request for Proposal (RFP) process for the Food Service Management Contract and reviewed current district food service programs. He referenced Board Policy EFA (Local Wellness) and encouraged board members and community members to join the wellness committee to help shape contract criteria.
Board members asked how the wellness committee’s feedback would be weighed in the RFP selection, who the decision makers would be, whether alternatives to the incumbent vendor Sodexo would be considered, and the anticipated contract length. Staff said community surveys and committee input would inform the RFP but did not specify contract durations or scoring weights at the Feb. 20 meeting.
No final decisions were made; staff requested board members notify them if they wished to participate on the wellness committee.
