, the implication would seem to be that traffic agents don’t have as much to monitor as they usually would, but Disilvestro believes it’s not fair that they fill their time by going after food trucks. “A $65 ticket isn’t going to break us, but it shows a lack of compassion,” he was quoted as saying. “These officers know what we’re going through.
Meanwhile, business has been so slow, many street food vendors have reportedly closed up shop in recent weeks. “Business has dropped 80 to 90 percent because there’s no one out here,” Disilvestro added when discussing his citation. “Everyone on staff has already taken hour and pay cuts.
