Arizona food truck law simplifies requirements for operators

May 23, 2018

A new food truck law in Arizona requires a single state license for food trucks and prevents cities from requiring owners to have separate insurance, according to ABC 15.

Under the old rules, food trucks needed a county license and individual cities could require their own license, at a cost upwards of $100 each. The new law also allows food trucks to park in public spaces.

Mike Milligan, who owns Meatball's Meatballs, said the new law creates an "open playing field" for food trucks. He said food truck operators' hands had been tied in Scottsdale because the city didn't license food trucks.
