Food Truck Permits

Spokane Valley treats mobile food vending as a supplemental zoning use, not a stand-alone business license. Before setting up anywhere in the city, a mobile food vendor must have the underlying property owner's permission and must already hold the appropriate health certificates and permits, per SVMC § 19.65.040(B). No truck may legally operate without both.
