The City has determined that regulation of Mobile Food Vendors is necessary to protect the health, safety and welfare of the public, as well as to promote the public interest by regulating the areas and methods of operation. To meet these objectives, all persons or entities that desire to vend from Mobile Food Trucks within the city of Maryville must be issued a permit pursuant to the requirements of city of Maryville Ordinance No. 2016-13 and any amendments, thereto.

Mobile Food Vendor permits are valid for the remainder of the calendar year from the date of issuance and may be renewed on an annual basis on January 1, by completing an application and supplying all required information. Each operator and/or applicant shall file additional application and pay an additional permit fee for each additional mobile food vendor vehicle.

Please read all ordinances prior to the application process. It is the responsibility of the Mobile Food Vendor Permit holder to understand and follow all applicable ordinances including zoning restrictions, location, hours of operationm etc. Background checks will be completed by the Maryville Police Department. Once a permit has been approved, each applicant shall also be issued a decal which must be displayed on the right front windshield’s lower corner on each mobile food vendor vehicle.
