Buckle up, food truck operators. This could get bumpy.
To operate in Dallas, trucks like these would need a city and county permit, even though a new law intended to shift responsibility to the county alone.A law that went into effect Sept. 1 was intended to simplify the business of operating a food truck. But so far, it's doing the opposite in Dallas.
Dallas County officials had to scramble in late August after realizing that they, too, were now in charge of mobile food truck operations. A "The county of Dallas is going to give us a six-month period to do their permits," Aguilar says."City of Dallas should let us finish up the year. We personally got several permits renewed back in June, July, and they didn't tell us that the laws were going to change and we should have waited: city of Garland did, city of Grand Prairie did, city of Carrollton did."
The county can't provide any clarification either. Its website even contradicts itself. One paragraph reads: "I think the problem is they [the city of Dallas] don't want to lose their revenue that we're bringing to them by getting our permits," Aguilar says. Ryan Ngyuen operates the food truck Sushi Dojo in both Tarrant and Dallas counties. He loves the new setup in Tarrant County allowing for a one-stop permit shopping for all cities. He didn't know that Dallas, too, was moving to county oversight but hopes they too will streamline.
