Regional food truck inspection program
Summary
Appleton's fire department launched a free, regional food truck inspection program with ten area agencies signed on. Of 79 inspections so far, most trucks had fixable violations and three were shut down — including one with barely-attached 100-pound propane tanks. Enforcement gets stricter next year.
