Mobile Food Preparation Vehicle Ordinance
On October 9, 1979, the Board of Supervisors adopted amand-
ments to the County's food sanitation ordinance prescribing safety
standards for mobile food preparation vehicles (commonly known as
"hot trucks"). The safety standards were necessitated by the
occurrence of several accidents over the past two years resulting
in serious burn injuries, one fatal, to vehicle workers. The stan-
dards were developed through lengthy consultation with all segments
of the hot truck industry, representatives of which supported the
standards.
The City of Tustin, as well as all other cities in Orange
County~ previously adopted a food sanitation ordinance modeled
after the County's Ordinance. The County has recently amended its
ordinance to provide for new regulations of "hot trucks", a copy
of the County's Ordinance is enclosed for your review. In order
that the City of Tustin will maintain the same standards as the
County and also in order that there will be a uniform standard
throughout the County, the County has requested that the City of
Tustin amend its ordinance to conform with the County Ordinance.
This office has reviewed the County Ordinance and has
drafted an ordinance which does conform with the County's standards.
A copy of our draft is enclosed for your review. If you have any
questions or comments, please advise.
