Commission approves zoning and mobile vendor code updates — adds livestock services as conditional use in C‑2 and extends food truck hours
Summary
The board approved an ordinance to add livestock services as a conditional use in the C‑2 zoning district and amended mobile food vending hours to allow operations from 6 a.m. to midnight on private commercial/industrial property and increase allowable consecutive hours from 12 to 18.
The Wakulla County Board approved two amendments to the land development code during its meeting. The first ordinance adds "livestock services" as a conditional use within the C‑2 general commercial zoning district; the change would allow activities such as livestock sales, veterinary services, feed suppliers, auctions, and grooming subject to Planning Commission conditional‑use review. Staff said this was the second public hearing; the final hearing is scheduled for Dec. 8, 2025. The board approved the changes on a recorded voice vote.
The board also approved an amendment to section 6‑39 of the land development code to expand operating hours for mobile food vendors on private commercial and industrial properties from 6 a.m. to midnight and to increase the number of consecutive hours a vendor may operate from 12 to 18. The amendment preserves existing park hour restrictions for vendors operating at county facilities. Staff said the change responds to requests to provide vendors with a more reasonable operating window.
Both items were presented by planning staff and approved by unanimous vote.
There were no votes taken to enact binding permits at this meeting; both actions amend the code and will inform future conditional use or permitting decisions by staff and the Planning Commission.
