DeKalb County restricts food truck vending on public right-of-way. Most operations occur on private property with owner permission in designated commercial zoning districts.
DeKalb County generally prohibits food truck vending on public rights-of-way and in public parks without a special event permit. Most lawful truck operations occur on privately owned parcels in commercial (C-1, C-2) or office-institution zoning districts with documented permission from the property owner. Distances from permitted brick-and-mortar restaurants and residential zones may apply in certain corridors. Special events along Decatur Square, the Dunwoody Village area (now in City of Dunwoody), and Emory Village are handled by city event permits. The Dekalb Farmers Market neighborhood and Buford Highway international corridor host numerous legal truck operations on private lots. Trucks cannot block fire lanes, hydrants, or ADA access.
Vending in prohibited location: $100 to $1,000 and immediate relocation order. Blocking fire access: additional fire marshal penalty. Repeat violations can result in permit revocation.
