Tuolumne County Signs Food Services Deal
January 21st, 2009
Tuolumne County CA has approved a contract with Aramark Correctional Services to provide food and commissary services for the jail.
“Back in 2008 it was apparent that funding from the State and County was going to be tight,” Sheriff Jim Mele told the Board of Supervisors at Tuesday’s meeting. “We looked at different alternatives and one of which was to go to a private vendor for food services.” The contract with Aramark will cost the County approximately $375,000 per year, and is expected to save around $175,000.
