The City of Sydney is advertising the Development Applications it has submitted to Council for consent to operate gourmet food trucks at Customs House (2 Trucks) and Pitt Street Mall near King Street (1 Truck).
Residents and local businesses are invited to make submissions about the proposed locations and conditions of consent the City of Sydney is seeking for the first 12 month trial of the 10 gourmet food trucks that have been chosen by the City of Sydney to tempt Sydneysiders taste buds on Sydney’s streets late at night.
The gourmet food truck initative, announced by Lord Mayor of Sydney Clover Moore, comes on the back of the success of similar late night food trucks in other cities, such as Santa Monica in Los Angeles and London.
