Brevard regulates food truck locations by zoning. FL §509.102 preempts outright bans but allows rules on parking, time limits, and distance from brick-and-mortar restaurants. Beach access lots and special events common.
Brevard County and its municipalities restrict food truck operations to approved commercial and industrial zones, or with private property owner permission. FL §509.102 preempts municipalities from prohibiting food trucks entirely but allows reasonable regulations on noise, parking, hours, and distance from restaurants. Common rules: no vending within 100-200 feet of a fixed restaurant during its operating hours, 2-4 hour time limits per location, no blocking sidewalks or bus stops. Special event vending at Port Canaveral, Cocoa Village Main Street events, and Eau Gallie ArtWorks festivals requires event organizer approval and sometimes a special event permit. Beachside parking is tightly regulated - most county beach lots prohibit vending.
Vending in restricted zone: $100-$500. Blocking access: immediate relocation order. Unauthorized beach/park vending: $250-$1,000 and trespass.
