Tennessee city proposes food truck rules

June 26, 2019

Food trucks in Franklin, Tennessee will be allowed to operate in office, commercial, industrial, mixed-use and civic and industrial zoned areas under a proposed ordinance, according to a report in The Tennessean. The trucks will also be able to serve residential areas under certain conditions.

For the first time, food trucks will be able to apply for location-specific permits, allowing them to remain overnight when not open for business. Trucks will be allowed to operate for an indefinite duration on the property, but cannot make permanent connections to electricity, gas, water or sewer.
