The Township Committee on Tuesday approve extending the pool concession contract with RS Food Express Inc. of Roselle Park for this summer and 2017.
The resolution (below) was approved 4-0, with TC Member India Larrier absent. It requires RS Food to pay $25,500 to the Township for the concession rights for 2016, that's $3,000 more than they paid last year.
Township Administrator Joseph Manning said the contract did not go out to bid as it had in the past because the 2015 contract included a provision that allowed it to be extended if both sides agreed.
With a $3,000 revenue increase and apparently positive reactions from swimmers, that seems like a good deal.
