Outdoor Vendors:
All applicable guidelines and ordinances must be observed by outdoor vendors including the following:
- Selling or offering to sell any item for commercial gain without a permit is illegal (Code 23-201, Ordinance No. 62, 1988 #6).
- Solicitation by vendors in parks without a license is prohibited (Code 15-382).
- Utilization of (parks) to conduct a service for commercial gain without a permit is illegal (Code 23-201, Ordinance No. 62, 1988 #7).
The Parks Management Team (PMT) and the Recreation Management Team (RMT) have established that private commercial vending in City-owned parks interferes with the public’s use of the parks and is not what our customers expect or desire when they enter a park or visit an outdoor athletic facility in our park system. Consequently, the City will authorize sales by event and/or tournament directors only when the following criteria are met:
- The merchandise being sold is directly related to the activity, event or tournament.
- The merchandise being sold has prior approval from the Recreation Supervisor and is only at
locations authorized by the City.
- The event or tournament director has secured an outdoor vendor’s license and a City sales tax
license from the City’s Sales Tax office (330 S. College Avenue, phone #221-6780).
