Board of County Commissioners Meeting · 2026-05-05 · agenda_item

Indian River County is considering amendments to its Land Development Regulations to create new rules for mobile food dispensing vehicles, commonly known as food trucks. These proposed changes aim to establish a clearer framework for food truck operations. Key proposed changes include removing a previous 3-acre minimum site size requirement and eliminating the rule that food trucks must operate only on paved surfaces. The amendments also suggest allowing vendors to stay on a site for up to 24 hours while still being able to move. This item is currently under review and has been approved by staff recommendations and passed by the Board of County Commissioners. The project would involve establishing clear guidelines for mobile food vendors, potentially leading to new business opportunities for food truck operators and related services. Early engagement with county planning staff could provide insights into the final regulations and operational requirements.
