Adopt an Ordinance to Regulate Mobile Food Vending Vehicles <br />September 5, 2017 <br />Page 2 <br />the following areas of concern: distance from schools, parking time limits and potential vending <br />sites in the public right-of-way. In addition, they directed staff to discuss the final revised draft <br />with key stakeholders. <br />1. Distance from Schools, Parks, Community Centers and Public Playgrounds. <br />The first draft of the mobile vending ordinance prohibited mobile vending vehicles within 500 feet <br />of a school, park, community center or public playground. However, the mobile vending industry <br />representatives were concerned that this requirement in addition to the 100 foot distance <br />requirement from any intersection would eliminate their ability to operate in many locations that <br />they have conducted business in for years. Neighborhoods that would have been dramatically <br />impacted by this restriction include: Willard, Bishop and Pico Lowell. <br />In response to the 250 feet reduction in the distance requirements, Santa Ana Unified School <br />District indicated concern that reducing the 500 foot buffer between vendors and the school sites <br />would be in direct conflict with Federal guidance prohibiting competing breakfast and lunch sales. <br />Staff is recommending 250 feet as it conforms to the City's safety findings. <br />2. Amend Time Limit requirement. <br />The proposed ordinance does not recommend any time limits or restrictions requiring mobile <br />vendors moving after a specific amount of time, other than the overnight commissary storage <br />requirement. <br />3. Mobile Vending Sites and Lease of the Public Right -of -Way <br />As part of the ongoing general plan amendment discussions, the City will investigate establishing <br />Food Vending Zones. These sites would include environmentally -friendly options for vending. <br />During discussion of the draft ordinance, the City Council directed staff to consider lease of public <br />right-of-way as long-term parking spaces for mobile vendors. Of particular interest was the ability <br />to replace the gas generators with electric power from City streetlights. <br />Most of the City streetlights are owned by Southern California Edison (SCE). Currently, PWA is <br />negotiating with SCE to buy back the streetlights. Once the City takes ownership, estimated to <br />be in late spring 2018, the streetlights can be modified to include outlets and meters for use by <br />street vendors. Power can be provided wherever streetlights are available. Estimated cost to <br />modify existing streetlights is between $17,500 and $21,000 per streetlight. <br />In addition, the City may wish to investigate extension of power from City -owned facilities or <br />properties to on -street or off-street parking and use of streetlights that are currently owned by the <br />City. <br />75C-2 <br />
