According to a Fuquay-Varina city official this new food truck rule is better than an all out ban (which had been proposed). The amendment limits vendors to entering the city twice a week. On top of that, the vendors will have to be invited by a restaurant owner or non-profit. Shame on Fuquay-Varina officials for this blatant protectionist amendment.
