City of Austin Council Message Board

Colleagues,

I would like to be added as a co-sponsor for Item 33, the resolution to allow mobile food establishments to opt-in to on-site permitting inspections. I want to thank Councilmember Velasquez for bringing forward this item. Having to close down for a day to go get an inspection is a huge burden and can be a huge loss of revenue for small business owners. I support the effort to streamline this process and make it more efficient so our mobile food truck owners don’t lose valuable time.

Yours in community,
Vanessa

Thank you for your support, Council Member Fuentes. This is an important item for many mobile food establishments, and I do believe that we can find a way to streamline a process that works for everyone.

Council Member José Velásquez
