Chair proposes exempting private events from food truck ordinance 245070
Summary
During old business the Chair proposed an amendment to clarify that private vending by food trucks at private events (weddings, private parties) would not be subject to ordinance 245070; members moved to continue editing the language and recorded at least one affirmative voice vote to proceed.
The Chair opened old-business discussion on the food truck ordinance identified in the transcript as "245070" and said the attorney had approved prior edits but that the current language did not address private vending for events such as weddings.
"That private vending by food trucks would not be subject to 245070," the Chair proposed as the amendment language to be added. The Chair said the amendment was intended to "exempt private parties from 245070 and kind of clean up the language a little more."
Alderman Ross was cited by the Chair as having raised the private-vending issue; the transcript records members debating wording and asking how to phrase the motion. A motion to proceed with further amendment language was moved and seconded, and a voice vote recorded at least one "Aye." The group agreed to continue refining the amendment and to bring it back in a future meeting for finalization.
No final ordinance adoption or roll-call vote was recorded in the meeting. The action recorded in the transcript is a motion to continue work on the amendment language and to return with revised language later.
