Summary
The council reached consensus to amend the 2026 solicitor permit to set food truck fees at $30 per day or $100 per year and to require annual background checks for owners only; the Fall Festival and farmers market will remain exempt under current ordinance.
During off‑agenda discussion, councilmembers reviewed solicitor permits and food trucks. The council agreed in consensus to update the 2026 solicitor permit to set food truck fees at $30 per day or $100 per year, and to require an annual background check of the owner only, rather than all staff who may operate the truck. Council noted current ordinance exempts the Fall Festival and farmers market from the permit requirements. The minutes do not record a formal vote on this change; staff were given direction to amend the permit language for 2026.
