Street vendor permits in Tinley Park, IL — sometimes called sidewalk vendor licenses, mobile vendor permits, or peddler permits — are the licenses required to sell goods or food on public property.
Street vending on public rights-of-way in Tinley Park is tightly restricted. Vendors generally operate only at permitted special events or on private property with owner consent, subject to business licensing.
The Village of Tinley Park does not maintain a broad public street vendor permitting program like Chicago. Most mobile vending is confined to permitted special events (Halloween Parade, Taste of Tinley, farmers' markets) or to private property with written owner permission and zoning compliance. Vendors must hold a Village business license, food vendors require county health department permits, and any vendor using public property or rights-of-way requires specific Village authorization. Ice cream trucks and push-cart vendors, where allowed, are subject to licensing, vehicle inspection, and route/hour restrictions. Vending near schools is typically prohibited during arrival/dismissal. Violations may result in citation, license revocation, and impoundment of equipment.
Operating without a license: $250-$750 per occurrence. Unauthorized right-of-way vending: up to $500 plus equipment impoundment.
