Abbeville Council votes to lift food truck moratorium

Food trucks can make dining a unique experience.
More could soon be making their way to Abbeville.
During Tuesday’s regular meeting, the Abbeville City Council voted to lift its moratorium on food trucks, which had been put in place not long after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mayor Roslyn White said the timing is appropriate.
“The moratorium was put in place because of COVID and the government’s restrictions on restaurants,” White said. “I think that’s now subsided. I think the timing is right, but it is a vote of this council.”
