Section 795-7-3-.02 - Establishment of an Add-On Site

(1) A prospective vending location or an existing location with established monthly net proceeds of less than Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA), as defined in Social Security regulations, may be considered an add-on site. A survey shall be completed to determine the potential or experienced monthly net proceeds of such locations and the SLA's costs of development.

(2) Priority for add-on sites will be extended to vendors who operate a vending facility in the same BEP region where the add-on-site is located. Add-on sites will be first offered to a vendor whose vending facility has the lowest average monthly gross sales for the preceding 12 months and has maintained no less than 85 points on their most recent performance appraisal. In addition, the vendor must have scored a minimum of 3 point on Rating (A): Timely Submission of Monthly Reports under Responsibilities and Performance Goals on their Annual Vendor Performance Appraisal. Said vendor shall be current in his/her set-aside and escrow fund payments and in good standing with BEP.

(3) A vendor offered an add-on site shall either accept or decline the offer within five days of receipt of written notice. Failure to respond within the prescribed time frame shall be considered a forfeiture of the add-on site. If he/she declines the add-on site, it will be offered to the next qualifying vendor.
