WORK SESSION
r..r,
Hold a work session to discuss Food Trucks, Farmer's Markets, and Temporary Use
Permits.
Mr. Haskins stated that the Parks Master Plan identified an interest from the community in
allowing Food Truck Parks and Farmers Markets as both permanent and longer duration
temporary uses. Staff is asking for direction for an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to
include Food Trucks, Farmer's Markets, and Temporary Use Permits.
Staff is recommending that stand alone uses, either a Food Truck or Farmers Markets be allowed
with a Special Use Permit. The SUP will allow a case by case basis to determine the nature of the
use and site design of each request.
Staff is also recommending adding food vendors or farmers market style sales to the Accessory
Outside Sales uses to be added on a more permanent basis to existing commercial facilities. For
example, retail shops having sidewalk sales or having a snow cone stand.
Finally, Staff has recommended changes to the Temporary Use Permit to redefine a temporary
market and include food vendors in the use.
Public Comments
Mr. Haskins stated a comment was made by the Wylie Chamber of Commerce stating they were
in favor of the amendments.
Ms. Angel Wygant, Wylie Economic Development Corporation, 250 S Highway 78, spoke in
favor of allowing food trucks, stating that they are clean, sanitary, and professional.
Mr. Jeremy Meyer, President Downtown Merchants Association, spoke in favor of food trucks.
He recommended these items: Food trucks allowed within the downtown area to have an
oversight of the type of use, so as not to be in competition with the existing restaurants in the
downtown area; limiting placement during on-going events; requiring a noise restriction to the
generators; and a guidance policy for clean up.
Ms. Janet Smith, 506 Fairland Drive, business owner in the downtown area and spoke in favor of
the amendment. Farmer's Market will boost and draw the public to the downtown area.
The Commissioners recommended that commercial facilities propose an area be designated to
allow outside sales on one private space. Commissioners also recommended that outside sales or
food trucks be allowed within a residential area with certain guidelines and restrictions. All
Commissioners were in favor of Staff moving forward with making amendments to the Zoning
Ordinance.
