Street food vendors will soon have a path to legitimize their small business in Nevada.

Gov. Joe Lombardo and Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar attended a ceremonial signing of Senate Bill 92 at the Latin Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday.

“In my state of the state, you may recall I said Nevada is open for business,” Lombardo said to the crowd. “So today this proves it”…

Although the bill will provide a path to legalizing street food vending, it prohibits anyone from selling food on a sidewalk or pedestrian path within 1,500 feet of a resort hotel, major or minor sports team facilities with a capacity of at least 20,000, conventions and state historical markers.
