NO. LTC # 111 -2011 LETTER TO ICOMMS3SWItsit E
TO: Mayor Matti Herrera Bower and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jorge M. Gonzalez, City Manager
DATE: May 10, 2011
SUBJECT: Cooking on a Budget Workshop for Elders
The purpose of this Letter to Commission (LTC) is to inform you of the City's
collaboration with the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) to present
Cooking on a Budget, a workshop to empower low- income elder residents to eat healthy
on a budget.
The workshop, which will be held at 1:30pm on Thursday, May 19 at Council Towers
North, will feature Chef Carlos Rentas from Artistik Catering. Chef Rentas will be
incorporating ingredients featured in the May menu of the City's food collaborative
program to prepare a three course meal. The food collaborative program is coordinated
through the Office of Community Services.
The workshop seeks to promote greater use of the City's discount food program which
enables residents to purchase bulk groceries at greatly reduced prices using either cash
or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (formerly food stamps) benefits.
Please see attached for a sample of food options available under May's Signature Box
($35) food package.
The City offers a variety of food packages including gluten -free foods and produce only
packages. Orders may be placed at the Office of Community Services or online at
www.angelfoodministries.com. The next order deadline is May 12 and food is
distributed May 21 at 10:30am.
