Sidewalk vendors in Apple Valley must now obtain a license and vendor permit from the town as part of an effort that the mayor says will level the playing field among businesses.
Apple Valley Mayor Curt Emick said in a statement that the town wants to protect owners who have “fought tirelessly to ensure their doors stay open” during the coronavirus pandemic.
“This past year has been incredibly difficult for our local businesses and we want to make sure they do not feel the added burden of competing with others who aren’t playing by the same rules,” Emick said.

Two months after announcing budget-related cuts to services and staffing following the defeat of Measure O on the Nov. 3 ballot, Apple Valley officials are looking to increase community involvement in the town’s budgeting process.
The Town Council voted last week to create a Citizen’s Budget Advisory Committee that will provide input in the review and recommendation process for Apple Valley’s annual budget, which faces a looming revenue deficit estimated at $4.5 million.
The 15-member committee will include Apple Valley’s five Town Council members and ten community members who will be appointed at a rate of two per councilor. Each community member must reside within Apple Valley or within its sphere of influence, town officials said in a statement.
