a. CONCESSIONS: The Provider may maintain concession activity or contract with

Parks & Recreation Board · 2026-06-16 · agenda_item

The City of Pensacola Parks & Recreation Board is considering a proposal that would allow a Provider to operate concession activities, including food and drink sales, within a program area. The City will handle all repairs, maintenance, and certification of concession equipment, such as ventilation hoods and fire suppression systems. The Provider must ensure their staff meet Florida food service licensing rules and maintain cleanliness of concession areas. This item is currently under review by the Parks & Recreation Board. The project would involve setting up and operating food and drink concessions, requiring services for equipment maintenance, staff licensing compliance, and waste management. Local businesses specializing in food service, equipment repair, and potentially event staffing could find opportunities. Engaging early, before final agreements are made, allows businesses to understand the specific needs and requirements of the City and the Provider.
