Refreshing our Recollection | READ THE BILL | Preempting Local Food Truck Regulations

California’s SB 946 (2018 | CA) will:

• legalize street vendors statewide
• create a permitting system
• preempt local criminal ordinances against street vendors
• allows residential areas to restrict stationary vendors 

The bill was messaged as:

• “EloteJustice”
• “elote with a side of justice”

What is the argument supporting the small business, street vendors?

The bill will override excessive local control over the streets and public spaces
