The Elkton Town Council unanimously adopted a new ordinance and related zoning amendments on Jan. 5 to regulate food trucks and mobile food vendors in town.
On second reading, Council member Virginia Fulginiti moved to add a new section to Chapter 110 of the Code of Elkton covering Food Trucks and Mobile Food Vendors; Vice‑Mayor Rick Workman seconded and the motion passed by roll‑call vote, 6–0. Council then approved amendments to multiple sections of Chapter 110 (§110‑610, §110‑302, §110‑611, §110‑612, §110‑613, §110‑614, §110‑601 and §110‑706) intended to align the zoning code with the new rules.
The changes were adopted following the required second reading; the council’s recorded yes votes were Jan Hensley, Virginia Fulginiti, Rick Workman, Rachel Michael, Aaron Napotnik and Louis Heidel. The council did not record any nays or abstentions.
The ordinances amend the town’s Land Development chapter (Chapter 110) to add explicit provisions for mobile food vendors and to update cross‑references and permitting sections. The meeting record does not specify effective dates or detailed permit fees; those specifics were not provided during the meeting and are not included in the minutes.
Council members framed the action as a code update to regulate a growing category of small businesses and vendors; no public comment on the ordinances was recorded in the minutes. The ordinances were adopted as presented by the council.
What happens next: the town clerk will post the adopted ordinance and any implementing regulations; the minutes do not state an effective date or further implementation timeline.
