issuance of a license and conformance with the regulations established
by this Section."

The fee for said license shall be fifteen dollars ($15.00) per annum, and shall be issued in accordance with the provisions of Sections
605.050 through
605.090 of the City's Municipal Code.
C. Any
licensee under this Section shall maintain proof of an insurance policy,

notice to the City.
D. All
food truck vendor licenses issued under this Section shall be kept
