7.C. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Healthy Food Certification Annual Statement
Speaker(s):
Mr. Steven Rioux
Rationale:
Section 10-215f of the Connecticut General Statutes requires that each local board of education or governing authority for all Connecticut public school districts participating in the National School Lunch Program must take action annually to certify whether all food items sold to students will or will not meet the CNS. If the Board of Education or governing authority votes "yes' for healthy food option, the BoE must also vote on whether to allow food exemptions. This will be the second motion. Beverage exemption are not part of the annual HFC Statement, which applies only to food sales. If the district chooses to allow beverage exemptions, the CSDE recommends that the board of education conducts the vote on beverage exemptions at the same time as the vote on HFC participation and food exemptions. THis will be the third motion. |

7.D. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Whitsons Amendment to Contract
Speaker(s):
Steven Rioux
Rationale:
According to state and federal regulations, food service management company contracts can be entered into for one year. After the initial contract, they are eligible for four one-year renewals, which then must be submitted for CSDE approval. This is the 2nd year of the current contract. Attached is the amendment to extend the contract with a modest cost of living adjustment of 2.2 %. It is recommended that the Board approve the amendment for the 2018-19 year.
