This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.
Summary
Existing law authorizes school district governing boards to establish cafeterias, which are defined as synonymous with food services. This bill would require a school district governing board, county superintendent of schools, or governing body of a charter school that contracts for the acquisition of food services using state or federal funds to develop and adopt policies and procedures for the acquisition of food services to ensure that a food service management company fully discloses to the local educational agency all discounts, rebates, as defined, allowances, and incentives received by the company from its suppliers, as specified, and to disclose and pay to the local educational agency the full amount of the discount, rebate, or applicable credit, as specified. The bill would require these discounts, rebates, allowances, and incentives to be paid as agreed, and a record of these transactions to be available for review as part of any audit conducted pursuant to statute. The bill would require any necessary changes to the policies and procedures for the acquisition of services to be implemented upon the renewal, extension, or amendment of an existing agreement or as part of a new service agreement.
