Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract value. Based on comparable municipal concession‑management contracts for parks of similar size, annual revenues typically range from $1 M to $4 M, with the city retaining a percentage (often 15‑30 %) and the operator receiving the remainder as net operating income. Assuming a 20 % operator share and modest operating expenses, the contractor’s earnings could fall between $500 K and $2 M per year. Multi‑year contracts (e.g., 3‑5 years) would scale the total budget accordingly. Factors influencing the final amount include the number of food‑truck slots, lease rates, foot traffic, and the operator’s efficiency in cost control.
