The city is hosting a community meeting to discuss a proposed update to Chapter 103 (Mobile Food Vendors) of the City’s Code of Ordinances. The public meeting is at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 27, in room 149 at City Hall, 301 S. Ridgewood Ave., Daytona Beach.
The current ordinance, adopted by the City Commission in June 2019, establishes licensing and operating standards for mobile food vendors, including restrictions on where and how long vendors may operate. These include limitations such as prohibitions on vending on vacant or unimproved properties, on private property without written owner consent, on single-family or duplex residential properties, and within certain distances of residential dwellings, major roadways and existing licensed eating establishments and food retailers.
City staff is proposing an amendment that would allow certain modifications to these standards when approved by the City Commission as part of a Semi-Public Use Permit, Public Use Permit or Planned Development Rezoning. Written comments or questions may also be submitted in advance by emailing ContactPlanning@DaytonaBeach.gov or by mail to the City of Daytona Beach Planning Division, 301 S. Ridgewood Avenue, Daytona Beach, FL 32114. Please include your name, address, and contact information.
Originally, the proposed amendment was introduced at the Nov. 19, 2025, City Commission meeting, and the second hearing has been continued to the February 18, 2026, City Commission meeting.
