BACKGROUND: Municipal Code Chapter 586 - Refreshment Vehicles regulates the operation of Special Events that have refreshment vehicles participating at them within the City of Kitchener. The Licence requirement relates to having the ability to inspect refreshment vehicles and require that minimum health and safety standards met for the protection of consumers. A Special Event licence is required when refreshment vehicles are a part of an event held either as a community, social, sporting, cultural group celebration, grand opening of a commercial business or other similar event. REPORT: A request has been received from Les Halat for permission to operate two hot dog carts during a community garage sale event held in the area of Stoke Drive. The garage sale usually operates from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Mr. Halat has received permission from the homeowners at 273 Stoke Drive and 112 Wexford Crescent to locate his carts on their driveways during the day of the sale. As this is a residential area it would normally not permit a refreshment vehicle operation. Council has approved request to operate for the past several years and there have been no complaints received by Licensing or Bylaw Enforcement. *** This information is available in accessible formats upon request. *** Please call 519-741-2345 or TTY 1-866-969-9994 for assistance. 3 - 1 ALIGNMENT WITH CITY OF KITCHENER STRATEGIC PLAN: strategic vision through the delivery of core service.
