Market: The cast of Hamilton will now include food trucks
Continued from Page A1
In December and Janu-
ary, the truck’s owners, Jason
Lancaster and Amy Myers,
operated under a short-term
sales provision which lim-
ited operation to four peri-
ods per year, not more than
three consecutive days each
period.
“Living in the south end
of town with new expanded
sidewalks and amenities
about a mile from the con-
centrated tourist area of
downtown shopping, sit-
down and fast food restau-
rant,” Montero said. “What
we’ve done is established our
relationships in the neigh-
borhood. One of the constant
requests we’ve been get-
ting are pre-packaged foods.
These requests intensifi ed
when COVID shutdowns hit
us in the last 12 months. As a
result, we did a trial run with
a temporary permit with a
Seaside business license-per-
mitted food truck Sasquatch
Sandwich Shop in the mar-
ket parking lot December
and January weekends when
it wasn’t raining.”
The service they did and
the food they prepared were
extremely well-received by
the neighborhood, he said,
and turned out to be a fi nan-
cial success.
“In canvassing neigh-
borhood residents and busi-
nesses we received no objec-
tions, just requests to make
it a permanent fi xture in the
south end of town,” Montero
said. “I am here to make it
happen.”
Montero asked planning
commissioners to approve
the longer-term permit under
a zoning code provision that
allows outdoor sales as long
as the use is similar to the
main use of the site.
As proposed, the food
truck would be located
within the existing parking
lot on the west side of the
market, using about 2% of
the parcel area of more than
18,000 square feet — well
below the code maximum of
15%.
“The outdoor mobile
food truck serves prepared
foods to local residents and
visitors,” Planning Direc-
tor Kevin Cupples wrote in a
staff report. “The food truck
would complement the cur-
rent use of the building on
the property which sells a
wide variety of packaged
food, beverages and house-
hold products.”
In 2018, Seaside restau-
rant owners largely opposed
a request from another food
cart owner to operate in Sea-
side, citing limited housing
and the short tourist season,
which, they said, put brick-
and-mortar businesses at a
disadvantage.
Prohibitions around food
trucks and other outdoor
sales are in place “to pre-
vent people from fi nding an
empty parking lot and locat-
ing there,” Cupples said.
Although the Sasquatch
Sandwich Shop food truck
was specifi cally identifi ed in
Montero’s application, the
permit approval would be
valid for licensed food trucks
of similar size.
Montero has no plans to
add outdoor seating. “It’s
strictly people walk up, or
they go shopping in the store,
get their food, take the food
to the beach or their resi-
dence back home. We have
no picnic tables, benches,
nothing.”
Rentals: Commission updates complaint process
Continued from Page A1
Commissioners Teri Car-
penter, Kathy Kleczek, Lou
Neubecker, Jon Wicker-
sham and chairman Chris
Hoth unanimously approved
the application. Commission
member Robin Montero, a
co-owner of the Hamilton
Market, recused herself.
“I am fully in favor of
this,” Wickersham said. “I
think it’s pretty exciting.”
