This is an Equipment List document associated with Sarasota County's Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) for concession services at the 17th Street Regional Park in Florida. The 95-acre regional park, scheduled for completion in 2026, will feature eight youth softball fields, three adult softball fields, and four multipurpose synthetic turf fields requiring comprehensive food and beverage concession services. The ITN seeks qualified food services operators to provide services across multiple concession areas, including a main concession building and two satellite locations. The contract will have an initial term of five years with potential renewal options. Proposals are due November 25, 2025. The concession facilities are fully equipped with substantial infrastructure investment, and the equipment list provides detailed documentation of available resources for the selected operator.

The equipment list indicates the park's concession areas include walk-in coolers, commercial kitchen equipment, and specialized food preparation areas necessary for supporting diverse athletic events and community recreational activities. The selected vendor will be responsible for all operational costs, including equipment maintenance, supplies, and staffing, while generating revenue through food and beverage sales. The compensation structure requires vendors to submit proposals with a revenue sharing model consisting of a monthly flat fee and a percentage of gross sales paid to Sarasota County. Vendors must offer a variety of food and beverage options for adults and children, including healthy alternatives, and must comply with Sarasota County's Integrated Pest Management Guidelines and local ordinances regarding kitchen operations and grease management. Respondents must demonstrate professional staffing capabilities, customer service standards, and comprehensive insurance coverage.
