The Request for Proposal was distributed to ten beverage and snack vending operators. Responses were received from beverage distribution companies Coca-Cola and Pepsi Bottling Group, and beverage and snack vending operator American Hot Foods. A committee of representatives from the Police Department, the Community Development Agency, the City Attorney's Office, and the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency met in November 2004 to evaluate the proposals. After a review of the three proposals, it was determined that the proposal from American Hot Foods will provide a superior level of service, product selection and maintenance support. Through this agreement, the City will receive 25 percent of the revenues generated by the beverage and snack machines installed at recreation centers and parks throughout the City. The annual projected revenue for this agreement is $27,000. 25D-1
