Short Vine Vending District closer

Legislation to create a vending district along Short Vine has been passed to the Vibrant Neighborhoods, Environment and Public Services Committee.

The City had been waiting for approval from the University Village Association.

A vending district would ensure that street vendors in the area follow a standard set of rules and regulations.

The tentative boundaries of the district include both sides of Short Vine between Corry Street and University Avenue.

If approved, the City will have to amend the Cincinnati Municipal Code.

The City's Municipal Code currently has three established vending districts. The Liberty-Dalton Vending District and the University Hospital Vending District became law in 1985. The Downtown Vending District became effective in 1997.

The next meeting of the Vibrant Neighborhoods, Environment and Public Services Committee is September 5 at 3 PM.
