Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 39, September 25, 2024
(a) When the commission establishes a new vending facility or when a vacancy occurs in an existing vending facility, the commission will canvass qualified licensees to determine interest in the new vending facility or vacancy. The commission, with the participation of the State Committee of Blind Vendors, will develop policies and procedures for conducting a canvass and criteria for the selection of a manager for the vacant facility. The commission will provide each licensee with such policies, procedures and selection criteria.
(b) The commission may waive the canvass and transfer a licensee to a new vending facility when the commission determines that such transfer will not result in a significant financial gain to the licensee. The commission may also waive the canvass and transfer a licensee to a new vending facility when the vending facility currently operated by the licensee will be closed due to the relocation of its clientele to another location which includes a new vending facility. The licensee may only be transferred to this new vending facility.
(c) A licensee appointed to manage a vending facility is ineligible for appointment to another vending facility for a period of six months commencing on the effective date of that appointment.
