A bylaw for mobile vendors in the Town of Three Rivers is slated for second and final reading by Council on October 12 and, if passed, will be enacted November 1.
The Licensing and Street Vendors Bylaw regulates location, establishes the fee structure and procedure for obtaining a license to operate, and outlines waste and wastewater disposal requirements.
The draft was created using the existing street vendor bylaw in Georgetown as a reference. Public input was sought over a period of two months.
The proposed bylaw includes lunch trucks, push carts, food trucks/trailers, and other mobile sales establishments.
Under the bylaw, vendors have an opportunity to apply for their permit and operator’s license prior to the next operating season. Staff will be available to assist vendors with the application process and additional information will be on the Town’s website on November 1.
Second and final reading of a bylaw with respect to Municipal Offences, Ticketing, and Enforcement will also take place on October 12 and, if passed, will clearly establish the process and procedures for bylaw enforcement and any fines or offenses.
