“I do have one concern. So obviously our brick-and-mortar restaurants, they capitalize in tourism during the three, four months, about three months we have now. so are we going to restrict somebody from just leasing a piece of dirt having a food truck capitalizing during that time and then they're gone they don't have all the other expenses to thrive to survive through the year i mean what is your thought on that that's one of the biggest you know debating points about the desirability of food trucks is this whole competition issue with brick and mortar restaurants um”

“And that is bringing up restaurants. That's another thing that I, and I don't see why it wouldn't be a problem because the restaurant owner can have a food truck as close as they want to, but you might have the situation come where they've rented an older building and it's just not feasible to revamp it for the restaurant to be able to have the restaurant on the outside of the building. And that wouldn't prohibit that in any way in this ordinance from what I see, correct?”
