The Boerne Planning and Zoning Commission has agreed to head up a subcommittee geared toward better understanding how the city might change its policy surrounding food truck parks.
Under existing city ordinances, food trucks must be moved from a property in town for a five-hour window between 2 a.m. and 7 a.m. each night. However, an ordinance amendment presented by city staff to the planners Monday may change this.
Laura Haning, Boerne’s planning and community development director, presented a draft ordinance that defines food truck parks and set forth regulations for more permanent food truck courts in the city, noting the food truck park that was beginning to develop across from Main Plaza, which Haning said was the main catalyst for the ordinance change.
