Under the Texas Food Establishment Rules (ยง228.2(143)), a temporary food establishment is a food operation set up at one fixed spot for no longer than 14 days in a row, in connection with a single event or celebration.
Review Requirements
- We review a temporary food establishment application only when it is tied to an approved special event permit.
- Read the Temporary Food Service Establishment Guidelines (PDF) before you apply. Breaking any part of these rules can lead to a citation, the loss of your permits and an order to stop serving food.
- Questions? Our environmental quality staff can help at (555) 010-1261.
- Submit your application online.
Fees
The fee is $45.00 per booth for a single event and $220.00 for a recurring event. Fees are not refundable.
No permit fee is charged for booths run by nonprofit organizations, or for booths run by businesses at an event that promotes the City of Fredville. These groups must still apply for a permit and follow all of the other guidelines.
Fees are paid in person at our office on the second floor of City Hall:
