Puyallup Launching Food Truck Fridays June 5: Report

PUYALLUP, WA — Food Truck Friday is back on the docket, according to a new report from the Tacoma News Tribune.

As the news tribune reports, the city has streamlined their permitting process, allowing more food trucks to get approved in the hopes of getting a weekly Food Truck Friday event up and running by June 5. For Food Truck Fridays, a food truck will be parked across from City Hall from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the end of each work week.

City leaders say servers will still have to follow safe social distancing and other coronavirus-related safety measures, but it's a step towards normalcy. They say they hope a weekly community event like this will help lift everyone's spirits.

Food trucks have been allowed to stay running during the pandemic, but the city says the newly streamlined process is allowing for even more to open up. The news tribune says 10 vendors have been approved to operate food trucks in Puyallup, with six approved in just the past two weeks.
