Transportation of Meals under Plans B or C upon Opening of Schools

In order to utilize yellow buses and transportation funds to operate yellow buses to transport meals when schools open for the 2020-21 school year, three conditions are required:

Continuation of the Governor’s Emergency Declaration that activates the General Statute 115C-242(6) for emergency use of yellow school buses (NOTE: Executive Order 116 declared the State of Emergency and authorizes the use of yellow school buses for emergency purposes until it is rescinded by the Governor.),
Approval of each local Board of Education for emergency use, and
Approval of Transportation funds (PRC-056) for emergency use. *Note: This item is still pending; a request has been made to the Office of the Governor to extend the budget flexibility for the use of transportation funds (PRC-056) to deliver meals to students as school reopens in August. The request wasn't granted.

At this time, TCS is unable to provide individual resident delivery service of school meals. With this in mind, please respond with your interest, preferences & needs.
