Gulfport and Biloxi restrict food trucks from operating within posted distances of restaurants and inside the Casino Gaming District. US-90 beachfront vending requires special coastal permits. No trucks in Hwy 90 right-of-way.
Harrison County municipalities designate food truck zones with distance restrictions from brick-and-mortar restaurants, typically 100 to 300 feet in Biloxi's Casino District and Gulfport's downtown core. Vending on the US-90 (Beach Boulevard) beachfront sand requires a coastal use permit from the Mississippi Secretary of State's Public Trust Tidelands program plus city authorization. The MS Coastal Wetlands Protection Act (MS Code §49-27) restricts commercial activity in designated wetland areas. Biloxi prohibits mobile vending within 300 feet of a casino property without casino authorization. Gulfport's Jones Park, the Small Craft Harbor, and the Mississippi Aquarium area have event-specific rules. Parking is prohibited in MDOT right-of-way along US-90. Time limits typically range 2 to 4 hours per location. Private property vending requires owner permission and zoning compliance (C-1, C-2 commercial districts typical).
Vending in restricted zone: $150 to $500. Casino District violation without authorization: $500 plus permit suspension. Beach vending without tidelands permit: state fine and removal.
