Since the onset of the pandemic, sidewalk vending exploded in popularity on San Diego's streets. Starting mid-June, sidewalk vendors and pushcart operators must pay $38 annually for a permit to sell their wares in San Diego.
SAN DIEGO – Sidewalk vendors and pushcart operators must pay $38 annually for a permit to sell their wares in San Diego, starting mid-June, under a proposed ordinance approved Tuesday by the City Council.
“With this, we can balance the needs of vendors, residents and our public spaces,” Campbell said at the time. The ordinance sets up a system of enforcement which varies for those with and without permits. For a first violation, a warning, followed by fines and ultimately confiscation of the stall and wares.
The initial regulations going into effect this summer will impose restrictions on vendors, including when they can sell wares in “high-traffic” areas like boardwalks, beach-facing sidewalks and parks between Memorial and Labor days.
