I keep all of the required documentation I might need in a 3-ring binder. It filled up fast - containing the latest Health Department inspection report, my Food Service Manager certificate, Oklahoma sales tax permit, my Oklahoma State Health permit, IRS Employer ID number, Insurance Coverage certificate, Trade Name report, DMV Title & Trailer registration, and my Commissary Agreement.Anytime a health department inspector, or an official from the fire department or city hall happens to stop by unexpectedly, I will have everything I need in one place.
Today the last official document arrived in the mail. My Business License issued by the City of Tulsa. Hooray! Hmmm, what’s this notice on the back? Important Zoning and Peddling Restrictions? Let’s see now… it says, “The central pedestrian mall from 1st street to 7th street between Detroit and Cheyenne is a restricted peddling area, and only permissible with a Temporary Mall Concession Permit obtained from (the organization known as) Downtown Tulsa Unlimited.”
I put a call into DTU and the person I need to speak with won’t be available till next Wednesday. Okay, so I guess it will be just a little while longer before I can legally hit the streets over by Bartlett Square. Stay tuned.
