HB 5620 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REQUIRING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A RECIPROCAL FOOD TRUCK VENDOR PERMIT OR LICENSE.

HB 5620 requires the Department of Public Health to create a system allowing food truck vendors to operate across all state municipalities with a single permit, rather than needing separate permits for each town. This directly affects food truck vendors seeking to operate in multiple communities, eliminating redundant permitting barriers. The bill mandates the department implement a "reciprocal" process so vendors licensed in one municipality can legally operate elsewhere in the state without reapplying.
