15 What additional comments do you have about Food Trucks Vendors?

No
Ningun
They offer additional food options
Let the in!
We need food trucks in salinas as part of of culture, in addition, that's how we know about other businesses around the area.

Great to see everywhere
We have enough food trucks in salinas and we need help to restaurants instead food trucks because the have to pay property taxes and other expenses No more food trucks in the streets
More help to local restaurants and no more foods trucks Loosen jobs for restaurants employees
Great food
Make it easier for business, reduce fees.

They’re awesome
some have raised their prices on food, not sure if they are covered under small business grants and the price regulations, and some should offer doable options pick up, mobile ordering to make process easier

26 What additional comments do you have about Food Trucks Vendors? Creating a food truck park would be great
I don’t think food trucks should be allowed to be parked on the side of city streets selling food. They cause extra traffic, parking issues and trash in the neighborhoods.

Being at the rodeo grounds is enjoyable, safe and still local.

Me gustaría saber cómo puedo tener una propio food truck. Mi correo es e***********@gmail.com We should have a food court or park like in Modesto,Ca
I support small businesses
learn about nutrition and to have a truck selling unhealthy foods outside of our door is counterproductive. Additionally the truck now occupies parking that was previously used by our moms coming in to the office for breastfeeding consultations.

They shouldn't be allowed to take up two spots and stay there permanently I think having them closer to parks where people could sit and eat rather than get their food and leave would be a better thing They keep the community fed day in and out, that is not processed food. For a good price as well.

Great opportunity for small business
I have two food trucks near my brick and mortar business. The customers from the food trucks have been using our parking space. The food trucks have been parked for more than 4 hours which is their time limit. A food truck parking in front of my business has their brick and mortar down the street and I feel it is unfair. 8 of 8
