Norfolk County has no vending zone rules. Each town designates approved locations; most restrict food trucks near brick-and-mortar restaurants and schools. Private property requires owner permission plus zoning review.
Vending zone rules across Norfolk County are purely local. Quincy allows food trucks on approved city property through a lottery system. Brookline restricts operation on public streets and requires permit-specific locations. Most Norfolk County towns impose minimum distances (typically 100-250 feet) from restaurants and schools, and time limits of 2-4 hours per location. Trucks may not block sidewalks, fire hydrants (MGL c. 148 §32), bus stops, or crosswalks. Private property vending requires the property owner's written permission and often a zoning special permit (Use Group under MGL c. 40A). Norfolk County's many MBTA commuter rail stations have their own vending restrictions through MBTA real estate.
No county enforcement. Vending in restricted area: $100-$500 municipal fine. Blocking access: immediate relocation order. Repeat violations: permit suspension.
