Relating to the permitting and inspection of mobile food units.

HB 2602 requires mobile food unit applicants (like food trucks and pop-up vendors) to submit detailed plans of their food preparation, storage, and sales areas before receiving a permit. It mandates a preoperational inspection to verify units are built per approved plans, have proper safety procedures, and comply with health regulations. The bill applies only to applications filed or inspections conducted on or after September 1, 2025, and directs the Health and Human Services Commission to create implementing rules. This standardizes permitting and inspections for mobile food units across Texas counties and public health districts.
