Utah County cities designate food truck vending zones subject to Utah Code §11-56 state reciprocity. Provo allows mobile food with restrictions near brick-and-mortar. Orem has downtown Center Street zones.
Utah Code §11-56 limits how cities can restrict food truck zones while preserving reasonable time/place/manner rules. Provo City Code Title 5 designates mobile food vending in commercial zones with setbacks from brick-and-mortar restaurants (typically 100 feet during peak meal hours) and from school grounds. Time limits of 4 hours per location common. Orem permits food trucks on Center Street and at University Place with city coordination. Trucks may not block fire hydrants, bus stops, or pedestrian ADA paths. Private property operations require property owner written permission and may trigger zoning/conditional use review if operating more than 14 days. BYU campus prohibits non-affiliated vendors; UVU allows by food truck Friday program permit. Utah County Fair and Timpanogos Storytelling Festival coordinate special event vending.
Vending in restricted area: $100 to $500 per Provo City Code Title 5. Blocking ADA path or hydrant: immediate relocation order. Repeat violations: mobile vendor permit suspension 30-90 days.
