sure that everyone is successful. Councilor Schaub stated that she is concerned about how this would
affect the food trucks that are already here. Councilor Cabrales expressed her concerns about the rent
for food carts at pods possibly being too high for the food carts that are currently operating in the City.
Councilor Wilk stated that he also has concerns about the small businesses who may not be able to
afford being in a pod and would like to see the City accommodate both by allowing single food carts
if they meet regulations. Mayor Lonergan expressed his concerns with parking requirements. Councilor
Cantu stated that she understands the concerns of the Council regarding the requirement of being in a
pod but there are regulations requiring these food carts to meet certain criteria before they can do
business and a food cart meeting those on their own may be cost prohibitive for them.

prepare an ordinance for consideration at the July 22, 2024, City Council meeting. On roll call vote the
motion passed 3-2 with Councilors Cabrales and Wilk voting no.
