The weather is great and the special event season is in full
swing in Maricopa County. The Mobile
Food/Special Events team works with coordinators and vendors to ensure events run
smoothly for all involved.
As an event coordinator, you help us achieve the most
significant step towards a smooth operation by providing us with the following items
at least 30 days prior to the event:
1.
Coordinator
Information Sheet
2.
Complete list of all food/beverage vendors, with
contact information and permit # (if operating under a current Mobile Food
Establishment permit or Food Catering permit).
3.
Map of event site with the location of the
booths, if applicable.
As a vendor, please be advised of the following:
1.
If you do not have a Mobile Food Type I, II,
III, Annual Event Food Establishment Permit, or Food Catering Permit, or are operating above the
guidelines of the permit you have been issued, you are required to apply for a Temporary/Seasonal
Food Establishment Permit.
2.
Submit your application and pay your application
fees at least 7 days prior to the event in order to avoid the addition of a $50
late fee.
3.
Review the Permit Requirements
at Special Events Guidance and Checklist to
ensure you are well informed of the operational requirements.
4.
Post your permit card at the booth during your
event.
