And as for the food carts, it just goes to show the kinds of things that can happen when you remove the shackles of overbearing bylaws. Remember, those food carts would not have been allowed a few years ago.
I don't know about the food carts - some of them lost their license - that coma truck the city wouldn't renew their license and they had a loyal following - but apparently they have to compete once a year to get a license - on one hand i can understand but it takes something like $15,000 just to even entertain the idea of having a food cart and some who got licenses didn't even open one up and resold the license thus bypassing the whole process which is quite unfair especailly when established ones have had to cease operations
