If enacted, this bill would amend current statutes regarding mobile food vendors by eliminating the provision that allows local governments to require mobile food vendors to be licensed, provided that the licensing system includes a background check or identification and fingerprinting of the owner. Specifically, it would remove the language in section 36-1761 that permits cities, towns, or counties to impose such licensing requirements.

The bill would thus streamline the regulatory framework for mobile food vendors by prohibiting municipalities from requiring any local regulatory permit or license, thereby enhancing the operational freedom of these vendors across the state. This change aims to simplify the process for mobile food vendors and reduce the regulatory burden imposed by local governments.
