Ordinance unenforced, but taco trucks moving on - New Orleans

“Enforcement of the fiercely debated crackdown on taqueria trucks in Jefferson Parish has been slowed by a backlog of other code issues, a parish official said Tuesday, but some vendors have started pulling out anyway.

Restrictions pushing the mobile food vendors from locations along major streets and requiring them to provide permanent rest rooms went into force July 1. Parish officials said at the time that they would send violation notices to property owners where the trucks were parked during the first week of the month, but they are only now mailing the notices.”
