Over the weekend, the Huntington Beach Police Department’s Beach Detail and City’s Code Enforcement issued 5 citations for illegal street vending as part of their annual summer enforcement to help keep the beach community safe, clean, and fair for all.
This targeted enforcement responded to concerns from local businesses and focuseed on two key priorities:
- Protecting permitted establishments from illegal sales that can distract from or undercut their operations
- Preventing health risks tied to unpermitted food sold outside state safety codes
The HBPD is committed to supporting the local economy while ensuring residents and visitors have a safe and enjoyable environment.
