RECENT LEGISLATION ADOPTED BY THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES EFFECTIVELY PROHIBITS ROADSIDE VENDING. CURRENT CITY REGULATIONS DO NOT EFFECTIVELY PROHIBIT ROADSIDE VENDING. DEPARTMENT: Community Development In January, 1993, the County of Los Angeles amended Titles 7 and 8 of their Code to effectively prohibit roadside vending. According to County Documents, "Peddler Business Licenses may be issued ONLY to those who vend from Commercial Motor Vehicles and those who sell food or merchandise at Special Events." A commercial motor vehicle, such as a catering truck, is therefore allowed within the County of Los Angeles, provided that a Peddler Business License and a Public Health License are first obtained. All carts, trailers, temporary stands, and other similar vending devices are essentially banned by these amendments. Those vendors who wish to sell food or merchandise only at special events are allowed to do so, provided that they first obtain a Peddler Business License and (if necessary) a Public Health License. In February, 1993, a memorandum from the City Manager was directed to the City Council in order to advise of these changes and warn of a potential influx of roadside vendors within the City. This potential influx was anticipated due to the fact that the City's regulations do not effectively prohibit roadside vending. According to representatives from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Chapter 11.38 of the Santa Ciarita Municipal Code (Peddling on Highways) is.not enforceable throughout the City. This determination was based on language within the ordinance which limits the enforcement of such measures to areas along "a public highway within any canyon or within any mountainous section of the City." All other locations along a public highway are then presumed to be acceptable for roadside vending. In April 1993, staff was directed to postpone any action on this matter until September -October, 1993. This additional time period was to allow for the monitoring of the vendor population. Recent complaints voiced to the City Council seem to indicate an increase in the number of vendors within the City. Should the Council wish to take action in response to these complaints, it may want to consider adopting the specified amendments to the Los Angeles County Code. The adoption of these amendments to the Santa Clarita Municipal.Code would provide for the uniform enforcement of such regulations within both the City and the surrounding, unincorporated areas of the County. If the amendments were to be adopted, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, in conjunction with the Los Angeles County Business Licensing Staff, would be responsible for the commencement of appropriate enforcement activities. The City already Agenda Item: responsible for the commencement of appropriate enforcement activities. The City already contracts with these agencies for similar enforcement activities. Therefore, no increased expenditures are foreseen as a result of the adoption of said amendments. Finally, it should be noted that these amendments, if adopted, would prohibit many of the fruit stands which are currently operating within the City. They would not, however, prohibit "farmers selling farm products produced by them." This exception, then, would allow the newly created Farmer's Market to remain in operation at the College of the Canyons. In doing so, the City would be able to maintain a rural atmosphere for the selling of fruits and vegetables and yet it would be abiding by the regulations adopted by its Council. For your information, staff has included relevant documents in the Reading File for this report. RECOMMENDATION Review staff's report and provide specific direction as to what action, if any, should be taken in relation to roadside peddlers. ATTACHMENTS 1. Los Angeles County Code Amendments 2. Santa Clarita Municipal Code Sections READING FILE A. Prior Los Angeles County Code Sections B. Documents Related to Fruit Stand Vendors C. Memo to Council Regarding Roadside Peddlers KLL:Iep eouminvendorAll 0 I Title 7 of the County Code requires certain businesses, including street vendors, to obtain business licenses and provides for the regulation of such businesses. Title 8 of the County Code currently.prohibits all itinerant food vending on public highways. This ordinance would amend various provisions of Title 7 as follows: Sections 1, 20 31 6; 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17,-18, 19, 20 and 21 make all necessary County Code amendments and technical corrections to transfer the authority for conducting business license hearings and enforcement responsibilities relating to ambulette businesses from the Business License Commission to the Department of Health Services; Section 16 adds the requirement that ambulette drivers and attendants show proof of a valid driver's license, First Aid Certificate and Personal Safety Certificate prior to obtaining a business license. 1 Sections.4, 5, 7 and 8 would impose time limits within which the Business License Commission and Appeals Board would be required to act in matters in which the decision of the Commission has been appealed. Such amendments would conform the County Code provisions relating to business license appeals to case law decisions holding that governmental agencies must impose reasonable time limits on administrative procedures to satisfy constitutional due process requirements. Section 22 repeals Chapter 7.34 of the County Code requiring that drug paraphernalia businesses obtain a business license thereby conforming to State law which preempts regulation in this area; Section 51 repeals Chapter 7.68'of the County Code regulating private patrol businesses thereby conforming to State..law which preempts regulation in this area; Section 38 defines the term "peddler", and includes vendors of merchandise and food within the definition, whether or not such vendors are itinerant; Sections 39, 41, 43, 44 and 46 repeal County Code provisions requiring street vendors.to.obtain a business license; Sections 42, 45 and 47 limit the circumstances under which itinerant merchandise and food vending may be conducted in the unincorporated County areas and limits such activity to vending from commercial vehicles, or at special events. Sections 9 and 40 restate the requirement that all peddlers obtain a County business license and pay a fee, with no increase in existing fees. Section 40 also adds the requirement that peddlers obtain all health permits required by State or other local laws before engaging in such business; Sections 48 and 49 designate the penalties for violations of Title 7 provisions relating to peddlers; Ej I Sections 23, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 50, 52, 53 and 55 make changes to accurately reflect the responsible County enforcement agencies for regulating funeral escorts, model studios, vehicle repairers, outdoor festivals, picture arcades, taxicab drivers and vehicle rentals. Sections 26 and 54 make technical corrections to the ordinance. Section 56 deletes the definition of "informal entertainment." Section 57 of this ordinance amends Section 8.36.040 of Title 8 to delete the prohibition against vending upon a public highway but imposing certain regulations thereby conforming its provisions to State law.

The Sheriff's Department has brought this matter to our attention in anticipation of the potential vendor Influx. Newly adopted regulations by the County effectively prohibit roadside vending. City regulations do not prohibit roadside vending. , p4e C. zz ) 'g-oe�f . Y( I (' 43 Accordingly, It is recommended that we should take proactive, preventative measures to address this issue before It becomes a source of complaints to the City. There are two approaches the City can take in response to a potential roadside vendor problem: Adopt and codify. the newly adopted County regulations Into the City's Municipal Code and effectively prohibit roadside vending within the City. 2. Monitor vendor activity within the city and adopt appropriate codes if necessary, to rectify any problems associated or encountered therewith. As you may recall, this issue has come before the City Council in the past and at that time, the Council chose to allow certain types of vendors in the City. However, by doing so, we created an enforcement problem by not uniformly applying the code to all vendors. Asa result, the perception that we are being selective In our enforcement efforts could be projected to the public. Therefore, staff would like the .City Council to consider the two options given above and provide some direction as to how we should respond to any future problems associated with roadside vendors.
