MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION # 12080
BY: Commissioners Dave Woodward, District #18
IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS — STATIONARY OUTDOOR SITES FOR MOBILE
FOOD VENDORS ON COUNTY CAMPUS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County has a long-time policy of using a formal, competitive procurement
process in which all vendors are evaluated with equal consideration. Once a need has been
identified, the Purchasing Division solicits the appropriate members of the vendor community for
pricing and purchase information; and
WHEREAS there is interest in providing employees and visitors to the Oakland County complex
with a wide variety of food options; and
WHEREAS mobile food establishment(s) located on the Oakland County Complex in the Cities
of Pontiac and Waterford would expand and enhance the options and convenience of food
selections at stationary site(s); and
WHEREAS the Michigan Food Law of 2000, as amended, defines a "mobile food
establishment" as a food establishment operating from a vehicle, cart, tent, trailer or watercraft
that returns to a licensed commissary for servicing and maintenance at least once every 24
hours; and
WHEREAS a mobile food cart is a limited food service operation that serves a limited menu,
usually hot dogs, from a small open air push cart. Based on their limited facilities, mobile food
carts are limited to foods or beverages requiring minimal handling on site and must return to an
approved commissary at least once every 24 hours, such as a licensed food service
establishment; and
WHEREAS current Michigan Law provides that a mobile food cart establishment may be
requested to submit a plan review packet, including a plan review application, fee, menu,
standard operating procedures, drawing/layout of cart, and equipment specification sheet; and
WHEREAS a mobile food cart must have the equipment and resources available to ensure food
safety. Typically, this requires items such as a hand wipes, gloves, a sanitizer spray bottle and
paper towels, a metal stem thermometer, methods of hot and cold holding of foods, and a
method of covering and protecting food from customers and the elements. Additionally, a mobile
food cart must have the name and address of the business operating the mobile cart on each
side of the cart in letters not less than 3 inches high. Mobile carts are typically inspected once
every six months by a Sanitarian; and
WHEREAS each application for a license shall pay to the local health department having
jurisdiction the required sanitation service fees and an additional state license fee (at the time
an application is submitted); and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners is desirous of working with the
Oakland County Executive administration to establish the appropriate policies, process,
procedures, and appropriate permits and fees for establishing stationary sites on the Oakland
County campus for mobile food carts and the solicitation of potential vendors through the
purchasing process.
