The DC Food Truck Association posted a note to their website reminding fans that they will start collecting 10% sales tax starting Oct 1st as a result of the passage of the Vendor Sales Tax and Collection and Remittance Act of 2012.
This means that fans may potentially experience price increases at food trucks operating in the District on Monday.
This is long overdue as food trucks should be subject to the same tax rates as restaurants.
I am fine with this as long as paying taxes finally provides food truck owners relief from the harrasment many have received thanks to pressure from brick and mortar shops.
Frankly, I think 10% is too high (for trucks or brick & mortar)
What saddens me is that I trucks will still saying be harassed by DC parking enforcement since the tax went i to effect.
