Planning and Development Services 13.1.1. 25-0740 Overview of Regional Food Truck Regulations and Policy Considerations for Indian River County Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the Board receive and consider the presentation outlining regional food truck regulations and provide direction to staff regarding the potential development of a food truck ordinance for Indian River County. This ordinance would be designed to reflect best practices observed in peer communities while preserving the County's small-town character and ensuring compatibility with existing land uses. Chairman Flescher opened the Item by thanking County Administrator John Titkanich for taking action to pause enforcement of food truck violations which allowed staff time to focus on creating a suitable and updated Ordinance. Planning and Development Services Director Chris Balter presented an overview of regional trends and options for the Commissioners to consider in follow up to the May 3, 2025, Board meeting which revealed updated regulations for food trucks were needed. Mr. Balter noted that the State had preempted local control over licensing, permits, and fees for food trucks. The presentation provided a framework for the areas the County could regulate: zoning, hours, and site standards, and concluded with steps to adopt an Ordinance in the third quarter of 2025.
