Mansfield limits mobile food vending to commercial zoning districts and special event areas. Residential streets, public parks without event permits, and rights-of-way are off-limits.
Mansfield zoning limits where mobile food vendors can operate. Permitted locations include commercial, industrial, and mixed-use zoning districts with the written permission of the property owner. Popular locations include breweries, shopping centers, large office parks, and construction sites where the general contractor coordinates access. Vendors cannot operate from public street rights-of-way except during permitted special events such as farmers markets, the Mansfield Hot Air Balloon Festival, Pickle Parkway events, and similar festivals. Park operations generally require a special event permit through the Parks Department. Residential zoning districts prohibit mobile food vending as a primary use. School campuses have their own vendor rules administered through Mansfield ISD. Duration limits at a single location may apply; vendors should not park continuously 24 hours a day and typically rotate across approved sites. Setup must not impede fire lanes or ADA access. Contact Planning at (817) 276-4200 to confirm whether a specific location allows mobile vending.
