About each permit

The same fee schedule separately lists a 'Food Service Facility – Mobile Vendor – Food Truck' line under the Health section at an identical $462 base figure; the schedule itself does not state whether a single food-truck operator pays this DPIE business-license line and that health-program line once or twice, so this record covers only the DPIE business-license line described here.
