ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION
B-1. TXT-01-2020/City of Richmond/Text Amendment to Section
6.707/Temporary Structures and Uses
City Manager Moore explained that the amendment to the zoning ordinance added
language that would require applicants for a mobile food truck on private property would
be required to go before Council for approval.
This issue has been discussed by Council for 1-2 years at special meetings and
workshops. In smaller communities mobile food trucks can affect local businesses
more.
Administration has developed a special event form specifically for mobile vendors – this
requires a change to the zoning ordinance. Council wants to review all food truck
requests. Currently, the consensus of Council was that they may approve mobile food
trucks request when they are in conjunction with a special event.
