A 6083 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Exempts lemonade stands operated by persons under sixteen years of age from department of health permitting requirements

This bill exempts lemonade stands operated by people under 16 years old from needing health department permits. It clarifies that such stands are not considered "temporary food establishments" under New York City health regulations (title 10 NYCRR chapter 14). The exemption applies immediately, removing a regulatory requirement for young vendors selling homemade drinks. This directly affects minors running informal lemonade stands, eliminating the need for permit paperwork under current health rules.
