Board denies extension for food trailer permit, cites ordinance violations
Summary
The Greenwood Board of Public Works and Safety voted to deny another extension for a mobile food-trailer permit after staff reported the trailer remained empty and out of compliance; staff will notify the owner and pursue enforcement actions as needed.
The Greenwood Board of Public Works and Safety on May 6 denied a request for an additional 30‑day extension for a food trailer parked at 127 Beach Drive, after staff said the unit remained empty and not yet compliant with mobile‑food requirements.
A representative for the trailer asked the board for a 30‑day extension while awaiting a health‑department inspection. Staff said the trailer had been the subject of multiple complaints and previous extensions, and an officer’s site report indicated the trailer was empty and not ready for inspection. After discussion a board member moved to deny any further extension; the motion passed. Mr. Hudson, a city staff member, confirmed enforcement and that city staff would follow up with instructions for compliance.
The board’s action directs staff to notify the owner and take measures to enforce the ordinance if the trailer is not brought into compliance. The vote recorded the motion as passed; the transcript does not provide individual roll‑call tallies for this motion.
What happens next: city staff will send formal communications to the trailer owner outlining required steps to become compliant and the enforcement timeline. If the owner fails to comply, staff indicated they will take the next steps allowed under the city ordinance.
