Full Breakdown

Titusville Code of Ordinances Sec. 102(1): a self-propelled or otherwise movable public food service establishment with self-contained utilities such as gas, water, electricity or liquid waste disposal. The use is permitted with limitations, not by-right, and every operator must independently meet all requirements in Article XVI (Mobile food dispensing vehicles) of the general Code of Ordinances, layering a second, citywide permitting regime on top of the zoning use table. Two special siting rules stand out. First, mobile food dispensing vehicles may be permitted in the Public (P) zoning district within the airport operations development waiver zone shown on the map at Chapter 29, Article II, Section 29-52, but only if the location will not adversely impact Space Coast Regional Airport aviation operations, confirmed in writing by the Chief Executive Officer of the Titusville-Cocoa Airport Authority.

Second, in the Downtown Mixed Use district's Downtown, Uptown, Midtown and Civic Waterfront subdistricts, mobile food vehicles are allowed only as part of an approved special event, not as standalone daily vending. The section was adopted by Ord. No. 28-2023, Section 5, effective April 25, 2023, and is distinct from the separate mobile-vendor use in Sec. 28-146, which covers non-food mobile vendors of goods and wares under Section 11-332 of the Code of Ordinances.

Violations & Fines

Operating a mobile food dispensing vehicle in a district not listed as limited-permitted on the Sec. 28-145.1(a) use table, without the Airport Authority's written adverse-impact confirmation near Space Coast Regional Airport, or in a DMU subdistrict without an approved special event, is a zoning violation subject to code enforcement, business tax receipt denial, and removal from the site. Separate noncompliance with Article XVI's general operating requirements is independently enforceable citywide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a food truck park downtown in Titusville any day of the week?
No. In the Downtown Mixed Use district's Downtown, Uptown, Midtown and Civic Waterfront subdistricts, Sec. 28-145.1(c)(3) allows mobile food dispensing vehicles only as part of an approved special event, not for routine daily vending.
Can a food truck operate near Space Coast Regional Airport?
Only in the Public zoning district within the mapped airport operations development waiver zone, and only if the location can be accommodated without adverse impact to airport aviation operations, confirmed in writing by the Chief Executive Officer of the Titusville-Cocoa Airport Authority.
Does zoning approval cover everything a food truck operator needs?
No. Sec. 28-145.1(c)(1) separately requires every mobile food dispensing vehicle to meet all requirements in Article XVI of the Code of Ordinances, so zoning district approval and the Article XVI operating permit are two distinct requirements that both must be satisfied.
