Description

The Puyallup School District Career and Technical Education (CTE) Program is seeking information regarding the availability of an ADA-accessible food truck to expand student access to its culinary education program. The District currently operates a non-ADA-accessible food truck and wants a vehicle with similar equipment and capabilities but with limited accessibility features. The goal is to provide meaningful access for students who use wheelchairs by incorporating a wheelchair lift or similar solution to allow safe entry and participation. Vendors may propose new or used trucks with integrated lifts, modifications to include lifts, or alternative accessibility solutions that maintain the mobile kitchen's functionality. The solution should comply with applicable safety and accessibility standards.
