Lynwood trustees approve ordinance to regulate mobile food vendors
Summary
The Village of Lynwood Board approved Ordinance #24-25 to add a new mobile food vendor subchapter to Chapter 22 after trustees heard there has been an increase in vendor applicants; the measure passed unanimously on Jan. 14, 2025.
The Village of Lynwood Board of Trustees unanimously approved Ordinance #24-25 on Jan. 14, 2025, amending Chapter 22, Article VII to create a new subchapter covering mobile food vendors. Trustee David Lilly moved the measure, Trustee Sherri Dunlap seconded it, and the roll call vote recorded Ayes: Lilly, Dunlap, Blakey, Clark and Marshall; Nays: None.
Attorney Boyle explained the ordinance change was prompted by "an increase in applicants of food vendors seeking to do business with the Village," and the new subchapter is meant to establish clear local rules for permitting and operation. The ordinance was the second reading and was presented with no recorded amendments. The board did not record any public testimony on the item during the meeting.
The action appears aimed at streamlining vendor applications and clarifying requirements; specific permit fees, operational restrictions and enforcement provisions were not specified in the meeting record and remain not specified pending administrative publication.
