LEDC offers to call vendors, fund mailings and guide rollout during proposed pause
Summary
LEDC told the committee it will fund staff to call vendors in Spanish and English, pay for mailings and create a step‑by‑step guide if the city pauses enforcement to allow time for re‑education and outreach.
An LEDC representative told the committee the organization will pay staff to contact every vendor in Spanish and English, pay for mailings and produce a comprehensive guide to the permitting process if the city agrees to a pause and re‑education period. "We'll pay for a mailing... We'll call every single food truck," the representative said, offering to support a six‑month pause and to reimburse outreach costs.
Several councilors welcomed LEDC’s offer as a way to remove language and access barriers, and to help vendors navigate health, fire and police steps in a single one‑stop event. The committee asked DPW to collaborate with LEDC and HHS on outreach plans and to include results when the issue returns to the full council.
