The City of Port Angeles is proposing updates to its municipal code that establish clear regulations for mobile and itinerant vendors. This amendment will introduce specific provisions for mobile vendors for the first time, aiming to provide greater consistency in the permitting and regulatory processes.
By updating the municipal code, the City seeks to expand access to diverse food and product options, enhance public safety, support local businesses, and foster new economic opportunities in our community. The goal is to create a framework that encourages a vibrant economy while ensuring mobile and itinerant vendors, such as food trucks and other businesses on wheels, operate safety and effectively.
To ensure that the new regulations reflect the interests of our community, the City is seeking public input. Residents will have multiple opportunities to participate and provide feedback, including listening posts, community presentations and public meetings. The feedback collected will play an important role in guiding the development of the proposed amendments.
What’s Happening Next
Residents and stakeholders are encouraged to attend the upcoming Planning Commission meeting on October 23, where the first draft of the proposed code will be presented for review. During the meeting, members of the public will have two opportunities to provide public comment.
Those interested can also provide comment via email to ced@cityofpa.us.
