Food truck vending in unincorporated Ventura County is subject to zoning regulations and right-of-way rules. The California Safe Sidewalk Vending Act (SB 946) limits local restrictions on sidewalk food vending. Private property vending requires owner permission.
Food trucks may operate on public streets where parking is legal and not blocking traffic, hydrants, or exits. Vending on private property requires owner permission and may need a Temporary Use Permit for recurring events. SB 946 limits local penalties for sidewalk vending to $200 for first offenses. Trucks must not block ADA-accessible pathways. Some unincorporated communities may have specific vending area restrictions near schools.
Vending in prohibited locations: $100-$250 first offense. Under SB 946, sidewalk vending penalties capped at $200 first offense. Blocking fire lanes: immediate towing. Health violations from improper conditions: separate penalties.
