Marana may restrict mobile food vending in residential zones and within 250 feet of residentially zoned areas under ARS 9-485.01. Vending is permitted in commercial and mixed-use zones subject to standard business licensing and parking regulations.
Under ARS 9-485.01, Marana may prohibit or restrict mobile food vendors from operating in areas zoned for residential use or within 250 feet of an area zoned for residential use. This means food trucks and carts are generally limited to commercial, industrial, and mixed-use zoning districts along corridors such as Ina Road, Thornydale Road, and Twin Peaks Road. The town may also restrict vending at public airports (Marana Regional Airport) and public transit facilities. Within permitted zones, Marana cannot ban the use of legal parking spaces for mobile food operations but may control the number of spaces used, vehicle size, and parking duration. Special events on town property require a special-event permit under Title 4 of the Town Code, which may include designated vending areas. HOA-governed commercial areas may impose additional restrictions through their CC&Rs. The Marana Heritage River Park and Ora Mae Harn District Park may have specific vendor policies set by the Parks and Recreation Department.
Vending in a restricted residential zone: zoning violation under Chapter 17-4, subject to civil penalty. Operating at a public facility without authorization: trespass or permit violation. Parking violations enforced under Chapter 12-3.
