The amendments, which were effective July 1, <br />2022, include the following: <br />• Removal of prior adopted language limiting residential properties to <br />having food trucks for private, catered events such as weddings and <br />graduation parties, thus now allowing for open sales at residential <br />events/parties. <br />• Addition of a no-fee permit that residential property owners must <br />obtain in order to host food trucks. The resident food truck permit <br />allows for up to two events/parties per calendar year, and each event <br />can be no more than three days in duration. <br />• Clarification/addition of language regarding ordinance enforcement - <br />a warning can be issued to a resident for a first-time offense of failing <br />to obtain a permit and an administrative penalty in the amount of <br />$100 can be issued following a second offense. <br />Guidance that remains unchanged and in effect includes that food trucks <br />must be parked on private property (in driveway or yard if residential <br />property) and not on the street or in the right-of-way, and vendors are <br />required to obtain a separate license from the City. Vendors can obtain <br />a temporary license (up to seven events in a calendar year) or an annual <br />license (eight or more events in a calendar year). Once the license is <br />issued, the food truck is inspected by the Fire Department to ensure they <br />are meeting requirements for fire safety. <br />A list of licensed food trucks is available at cityofardenhills.org/ <br />licensed-food-trucks and is updated as new licenses are issued. For <br />more information for residents, please visit cityofardenhills.org/947/ <br />Miscellaneous-Permits. For information for vendors, please visit <br />cityofardenhills.org/945/Mobile-Food-Unit-Food-Truck-Vendor-License. <br />Contact the City Clerk at 651-792-7811 with any questions. <br />State Fair Parking Information <br />The Minnesota State Fair will take place from August 25 - September 5, <br />2022.

Keep an eye out in your <br />neighborhood for “no parking” signage closer to the time of the event. <br />Check the State Fair website at mnstatefair.org/transportation/ for up-to- <br />date information. <br />Fall Clean Up Day is Back! <br />The annual Fall Cleanup Day will be held on Saturday, October 1 at <br />Recycling Technologies (formerly Green Lights Recycling) located at <br />1525 99th Lane NE in Blaine.
