Grading food trucks

Food trucks operating within the city of Los Angeles would be required to post a letter grade health rating, but trucks catering for entertainment sets would be exempt from the new rule under consideration by the City Council.Daily News.

The preliminary move, pushed by Councilman Bill Rosendahl, was scheduled to return today with the language exempting the caterers on sets.

"Even if we don't act, the county is going to go ahead and rate these trucks," Rosendahl said. "If we don't want the letter grade posted, the county will still go ahead and grade them and put it up on their website. This is just to give the public a better idea of the quality of the trucks."
