Item 23-968
Approve License Agreement With Abound Food Care
November 21, 2023
BACKGROUND
Abound Food Care, a registered 501(C)3 and a public benefit corporation, has proposed to locate a self-contained, solar-powered cold storage container on City property at the Corporation Yard, 17371 Gothard.
The container will be used to store pre-made meals as part of an Emergency Nutritious Food Management Program.
NEED/WHY/BENEFITS
Abound Food Care will furnish, deliver, and maintain the container and manage the contents at no cost to City.
Locating the trailer in Huntington Beach increases the probability that food insecure families and individuals in the local community will benefit from the Program and any food distributed.
Pre-made meals stored in a central location in Huntington Beach will enhance the City’s emergency preparedness.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council approve the License Agreement between City and Abound Food Care and authorize the Mayor to execute the Agreement.
