BAXTER-Green Canteen Food Truck will be offering Philly cheese steak, fresh cut fries, burritos, onion rings and cheese curds in Baxter.
Wednesday the city council approved a mobile vending permit for the food truck to locate at Jack Pine Brewery at 15593 Edgewood Drive. The food truck, with two employees, consists of a 7-foot by 22-foot by 9-foot high food truck. The applicant would operate within the allowed hours of the ordinance.
The city noted its mobile vending ordinance states applicants may receive approval to locate at as many as 10 sites. At this time the application was for a single site at Jack Pine Brewery. A schedule for days of operation was not yet submitted to the city, but the ordinance limits the number of days to two at any one location.
Mobile vendors pay a $300 permit. The applicant's name is Kim Hoban.
Wednesday the council met without a member of the public in the audience beyond staff members and consulting engineers so no one spoke during open forum.
