Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution authorizes an additional Special Vending Approval for a 2023 special event that occurs anywhere in the City where an ordinance restricts vending to certain types of food or articles, or only from assigned sites. This resolution is in addition to RES-23-00322 (Legistar #76259) passed on April 18, 2023 that authorized 22 special vending approvals for 2023. This resolution allows for three exceptions to vending ordinances restrictions.

• Suspension of rules - event sponsor requests suspension of the “homemade/handcrafted” vending rules in the Mall/Concourse area.

• Selection of vendors - authorizes event sponsors to select vendors for the event and requires they obtain a Special Event Vending License.

• Invalidation of vending licenses - licensees with assigned sites inside the event perimeter cannot operate from the assigned site during the event, unless specifically exempted.

This resolution contains 1 special event requesting special vending approvals for 2023 (see attached 2023 Special Event Resolution pt. 2 - table).

Under MGO 9.13(2)(c), Special Event Vending Licenses are issued for event vendors in the name of the event sponsor. Approval of this resolution will result in $400 in City revenue from Special Event Vending Licenses and is included in the Parks Division 2023 operating budget.
