9. Ordinance amending Title 3 of the City Code concerning mobile food units
City Administrator Miller presented an ordinance amending the city code concerning mobile
food units. The Public Safety Committee reviewed the current ordinance and recommends
several changes and clarifications. The fire department will continue to handle all food truck
inspections. The Public Safety Committee also recommends an amendment to the fee
schedule establishing an annual license fee of $50 for mobile food units.
Volk questioned the provision in the ordinance that exempts licensing of food trucks when
operating in conjunction with a community event. She felt that all food trucks should obtain a
license and pay the annual fee to cover the inspection costs.
Hellier stated he would be hesitant to remove the license exemption from the ordinance
without first contacting the community event organizers.

3, Chapter 23, of the Lakeville City Code concerning mobile food units, amending Section 2A
