Date of Report: January 24, 2006
Report No.: CRPS-06-013
Subject: 2006 STREET VENDOR BY-LAW
RECOMMENDATION:
That a by-law to licence Street Vendors in the City of Kitchener be prepared for Council's
consideration on February 13, 2006, based on the proposed by-law dated January 30,
2006 attached to Corporate Services Report CRPS 06-013.
BACKGROUND:
Street Vendors have been licensed to operate on city property for the past 16 years. The 2005
Street Vendors By-law expired on December 31, 2005. Therefore, a new by-law has been
prepared for the 2006 season.
REPORT:
The recommended changes to the by-law include fee increases for the hot dog vendors and
popcorn and confections vendors. These fees were established after an in-depth analysis of the
costs. Section 28 has been changed to ensure uniformity with the general provisions of other
licensing by-laws by changing the word `shall'to `may'.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
None.
COMMUNICATIONS:
A Public Notice was placed in The Record on January 27, 2006 advising that this by-law would
be considered on February 6, 2006. Last year's licensee's were also advised of this meeting.
