Full Breakdown

Fishers City Code Chapter 117 governs mobile concessions, self-contained mobile food and beverage services licensed to do business in Indiana and holding all requisite Health Department, business, and resale licensures. Owners and operators must display the permit issued by the county Health Department at all times while operating inside Fishers, and must comply with all local, state, and federal laws, including collecting and reporting sales and food-and-beverage taxes. The chapter does not create a separate city-issued food truck permit, it layers a display and compliance requirement on top of the county health permit and state business licenses a mobile vendor already needs.

Violations & Fines

Operating without displaying the required Health Department permit violates Chapter 117 and carries a $500-per-day fine under § 117.99.
