SECTION 59.104. Types of Concession Contracts

(a) A standard form long-term contract shall be used to grant major concession rights and privileges when the concessioner is required to make sizable investments in merchandise inventories, furnishings or equipment, and maintenance or repair of state-owned buildings and structures.

(b) A revocable short-term contract shall be used to grant minor concession privileges when the scope and size of the concession warrants it. Examples include merchandise vending machines, miscellaneous coin-operated machines, recreational rental equipment, and other miscellaneous services or accommodations the public has a right to expect and the executive director deems appropriate. A prospectus announcing the availability of this type of concession may not be issued.

(c) A revocable temporary contract may be used when it is deemed necessary that immediate action be taken to continue services, provide interim services, or under circumstances when a test period is required to determine the feasibility for adding a new concessioner provided service in a park.
