A food truck in Sarpy County needs a food establishment permit from the Sarpy/Cass Department of Health and Wellness plus a business license from the city where it operates. Expect a plan review, inspection, and a commissary.
Mobile food vendors serving potentially hazardous food in Sarpy County get their food permit from the Sarpy/Cass Department of Health and Wellness, the local health authority for the county, rather than from a statewide agency. The department reviews the unit and inspects equipment, handwashing, and hot-holding, and generally expects a commissary agreement for prep, water, and waste. On top of that, Bellevue, Papillion, La Vista, or Gretna each require their own business or vendor license to operate within city limits. Operators typically carry liability insurance and hold food-handler or food-manager certification. Permits renew annually with a fresh inspection.
Running a mobile food unit without the Sarpy/Cass health permit or a required city license lets the health department halt operations, and the permit is suspended or revoked for failed inspections or unsafe food handling.
