Full Breakdown
Fishers City Code § 117.03 sets two location rules for mobile concessions on top of the sidewalk-obstruction ban: operators may not park within 20 feet of an intersection, and they must obtain permission before locating, from the property owner if setting up on private property, or from the city if setting up on city-owned property. The code also notes that space for mobile concessions at some city events may be limited, meaning a vendor can be turned away even after clearing the location rules.
Violations & Fines
Parking within 20 feet of an intersection or operating on private or city property without permission violates § 117.03 and carries a $500-per-day fine under § 117.99.
