Jkt 223001
Under
section 6(c) of the Randolph-Sheppard
Act (the Act), 20 U.S.C. 107d–2(c), the
Secretary publishes in the Federal
Register a synopsis of each arbitration
panel decision affecting the
administration of vending facilities on
Federal and other property.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Daniel Czubak (Complainant) alleged
violations by the Illinois Department of
Human Services, Division of
Rehabilitation Services, the State
licensing agency (SLA), under the Act
and implementing regulations at 34 CFR
part 395. The allegations pertained to
his operation of a vending facility
comprised of vending machines at the
Shapiro Developmental Center (SDC)
from November 2005 until February
2009 when his vending operator’s
agreement at the SDC was terminated by
the SLA.
The Complainant began operation of
the vending facility at SDC when
granted a Temporary Income
Opportunity in 2005. Later, after being
the successful bidder and signing a
vending operator’s agreement in May
2006, he continued operating the facility
until February 2009.
Appended to the May 2006 vending
operator’s agreement was a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
dated April 2004 between the SLA and
the SDC. As a part of the MOU, the SDC
required that the SLA ensure that the
vendor operating the vending machines
would make monthly commission
payments to the SDC in the amount of
$3,699.00 based upon the following: (a)
Current vending machines at the SDC,
(b) current prices established for items
sold in the vending machines, and (c)
the current amount of sales from the
vending operation. This formula and the
commission amount were based on a
report from the private commercial
operator, who previously operated the
vending machines and made monthly
PO 00000
Frm 00013
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
commission payments to SDC based on
a percentage of its vending sales.
Additionally, the MOU limited the
ability of the vendor to change prices on
vended products without prior
concurrence by the SDC. Moreover, the
MOU stipulated that price changes
could only reflect the increased cost of
products provided for the vending
facility. The MOU also stated that the
SLA or the vendor would pay any and
all claims, losses, liabilities, or other
expenses, including repair expenses
arising from the operation of the
vending machine facility.
The vending facility operator’s
agreement signed by the Complainant in
May 2006 required Complainant to
comply with the MOU between the SLA
and the SDC, including the amount of
commissions to be paid to the SDC.
In mid-2007, after operating the
vending machine facility for almost a
year, the Complainant began having
problems paying the commission to the
SDC. The Complainant alleged that the
resident population at the SDC had
declined considerably since he began
managing the facility. At the same time,
the Complainant alleged that his costs
for goods and supplies had increased.
On September 1, 2007, an agreement
was reached between the SLA, the SDC,
and the Complainant to reduce his
monthly commission payments to
$2,500 with the SLA paying the $1,199
difference to the SDC. From September
2007 through March 2008, the SLA
made the payments of $1,199 to the SDC
out of Vocational Rehabilitation, Section
110 (VR 110) funds until the SLA was
advised by the U.S. Department of
Education, Rehabilitation Services
Administration, that VR 110 funds
could not be used for vendor
commission payments.
Thus, beginning April 2008, the
Complainant was again required to
make the $3,699 monthly payment to
the SDC. In early September 2008, the
director at the SDC sent a formal request
to the SLA asking that the Complainant
be removed, citing a combination of
factors, including late commission
payments, bounced checks, spoiled
food, and safety-related operational
problems based upon complaints that
the director had received. The SLA
contacted the director at the SDC and he
withdrew his request for the
Complainant’s removal with the
stipulation that the Complainant would
be more closely supervised and that he
would become current with his
commission payments. However, after
October 2008, the Complainant ceased
making commission payments to the
SDC.
