What do I need to know to operate a mobile food (or food truck) vendor unit?

A mobile food vendor unit may operate anywhere permitted by Section 6-6-8 of the Athens-Clarke County Code of Ordinances. To operate a mobile food vendor unit, you must apply for a permit with Central Services (for street merchant-assigned locations) or with the Finance Department (for itinerant merchants). Additional permits/approval/inspections may be needed from the Solid Waste Department, Health Department, and the Fire Department. Contact those departments for further assistance.
