COLUMBIA — A request for proposals is set to open Friday for a coffee kiosk vendor in the newly renovated Columbia City Hall.

The kiosk will be located in the southwest corner of the lobby on the first floor, and the vendor could provide hot and cold beverages, in addition to baked goods and packaged snacks.

Marilyn Starke, purchasing agent for the city of Columbia, said the city has no preference for a local business or a national chain.

"We just want a good provider to come in and do coffee and snacks," she said.

The deadline for proposals is July 30. Proposals may be submitted in a sealed envelope at the purchasing office or uploaded on the city's e-bidding site.
