Bill > HB3370

This bill extends the expiration date for mobile food preparation vehicles to comply with fire and life safety codes from January 1, 2026, to November 1, 2028, meaning food trucks will have more time to meet these safety standards. The bill clarifies that these vehicles, which prepare food and can produce smoke or grease-laden vapors, must adhere to the most current adopted fire code, including specific requirements for portable fire extinguishers like a six-liter Class K-rated extinguisher for cooking equipment using solid fuels or oils. It also mandates annual inspections by the State Fire Marshal for fire and life safety compliance, with specific inspection frequencies for different areas of the state, and requires these vehicles to obtain an operational permit decal from the State Fire Marshal upon approval. The bill also notes that this does not prevent the State Fire Marshal from enforcing codes, political subdivisions from enforcing local ordinances like zoning, or the Department of Health from licensing and regulating these vehicles.
