First reading held for ordinance to let village staff approve some mobile food vendor requests
Summary
Trustees heard a first reading of Ordinance 01132025 to amend Article 7 of the Village of Hartland code regulating mobile food vendors; staff said the change would allow near-term approvals by village staff rather than always requiring board approval for some off-street or business-site vendors.
The board held a first reading of Ordinance 01132025 on Jan. 13, an ordinance described by staff as an amendment to Article 7 of the Village of Hartland code regulating mobile food vendors.
Staff said the proposed change would shift approval for certain mobile food vendors from the full village board to administrative approval by staff in cases such as a business requesting a vendor on its private property for a limited or last-minute date. Staff said the intent is to enable timely approvals for off-street or business-site vendors while preserving board oversight if a mobile vending situation becomes contested or problematic; staff noted the village has seen only limited demand to date.
The ordinance is at first reading and will return for a second reading; staff asked trustees to review the draft and submit any comments before the second reading. No vote to adopt the ordinance occurred at the Jan. 13 meeting beyond the first-reading presentation and discussion.
