The Michigan Legislature is working on state-wide policy, for food truck fire-system inspection standards.
The proposed state house language will do the following:
Item 1: One annual fire-system inspection, done at the local or county level.
This has several exceptions:
Major modifications to the vehicle or major upgrades/modifications to the fire-system on the vehicle. These two scenarios would require an additional inspection, if they were to occur during the annual period.
Item 2:
An annual inspection fee of $200.
Note: Currently there is no limit to the number of fees and inspections of the fire-system, a food truck owner can be subjected to.
Item 3:
Higher inspection standards for the food truck's fire-system.
Note: This state-wide policy will dramatically cut lost work days and truck travel for redundant inspections.
This will benefit the general food truck community, by making more trucks available for events around the state.
Note: The Michigan House Bill # will be added in September.

Finally some common sense. My guys spend more time dealing with inspectors than cooking food some weeks.
$200 is fair enough just make it standard across the state.
Food truck owners are small businesses who are trying hard to make a living from their food trucks. Every city in Michigan should follow the SAME guidelines and fees. It’s not fair to the food truck owners to have to pay ridiculous amounts of money to be able to operate their food trucks. One set amount should be what everyone pays not what each city decides to do with food truck fees.
Yes pleeease. The paperwork is killing my business.
Ridiculous that we have to keep paying for the same thing every time we cross into a new town. Needs to change.

Get this done. It is hurting our ability to book events in different counties.
