Background

The Mobile Food Vending Vehicles Policy (Policy) provides the framework for the operation of mobile food vending vehicles on Council-owned roads within the Canterbury Bankstown Local Government Area (LGA). The Policy aims to ensure that mobile food vending vehicles operate in accordance with relevant legislative instruments and best practice in all aspects of food safety.

This policy

This Policy provides a consistent approach and guidance for the operation of mobile food vending vehicles in accordance with the Local Government Act 1993 (Act) and the accompanying NSW Food Authority’s ‘Guidelines for Mobile Food Vending Vehicles’. It applies to an activity listed under s68 of the Act, specifically item 7 of Part F: use a standing vehicle or any article for the purpose of selling any article in a public place.

This Policy does not apply to mobile food vending vehicles:

  • Trading in accordance with a development consent or the provisions of the State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008 on private land;
  • Trading on public land in accordance with an approved temporary event; or
