Pima County regulates street vendors through its health and zoning codes. Food vendors must obtain a Pima County Health Department food establishment permit or mobile food vendor license, which requires plan review, inspections, and compliance with the Arizona Food Code (AAC R9-8). The Pima County Health Department Environmental Health division conducts inspections of mobile food units and temporary food stands. Arizona cottage food law (ARS 3-584) allows sales of non-potentially-hazardous home-prepared foods without a food establishment license, with annual gross sales up to $75,000. Non-food vendors in unincorporated areas must comply with Pima County zoning code Chapter 18.77 regarding temporary uses and roadside sales. Vendors operating on county rights-of-way need encroachment permits from Pima County Department of Transportation. Sales on Tohono O'odham and Pascua Yaqui tribal lands follow separate tribal permitting processes.
Operating without a health permit: closure order and fines up to $1,000. Zoning violations: notice of violation, fines up to $300/day. Health code critical violations can result in immediate suspension.
