Rep. Dave Vella believes because the food truck industry in Illinois sprouted so quickly, most communities simply transferred to food trucks nearly the same regulations for restaurants. For example, one community in Illinois requires a sprinkler system over food truck cooktops. “Each county has their own health department with their own rules, and each city has their own rules. So if you're in, for instance, Winnebago County, there's one rule. If you're in the city of Rockford, another rule, and so on and so forth all over the state.”
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
