NoDa street vending pilot program to end

NoDa street vendors

CHARLOTTE — Street vending will come to an end in NoDa next month.

The Charlotte City Council is not extending its pilot program, which allows street vendors to apply for a permit and be allowed to sell in NoDa.

The city said the sidewalks are too small for street vending

Officials also said street vendors are often competing with brick-and-mortar businesses.

City councilmembers may pursue a citywide ban on street vending later this year.
