The change occurred several days after a contaminated milk incident on March 30 sent more than 40 people – most of them young children – to the hospital. Some of those children’s parents have since sued Guida’s Dairy/Guida-Seibert Dairy Company, which was the district’s milk sub-vendor at the time of the incident.
Guida’s Dairy/Guida-Seibert Dairy Company did not respond to Patch’s request for comment at the time the lawsuit was filed.
