The City of Charleston Health and Wellness Advisory Committee met on November 4, 2026. Members approved the September 2 minutes by motion and second; no procurement-related votes or city purchasing actions were identified. A Lowcountry Food Bank representative reported that food insecurity across its 10-county service area is projected to rise, described its food distribution and retail-rescue programs, and noted that a fourth refrigerated food-locker site is being explored in Charleston County. The representative also highlighted the bank’s completed 20,000-square-foot facility in Hampton, which was funded with resources the organization had received and includes expanded food-storage capacity, meeting space, and a teaching kitchen. No city contract amount, vendor selection, or funding commitment was announced.

The committee also received a South Carolina Department of Public Health update on flu prevention and vaccination, along with notices about upcoming food giveaways, health and safety events, and community vaccination opportunities. Members shared updates on local wellness and mobility initiatives. The discussion focused on community health programs and services; no committee spending action or procurement decision was recorded.
