		<description><![CDATA[According to the Georgia Dept. of Public Health website, yes:

&quot; Q. 	What are the requirements for operating a mobile food service unit?
A.	Individuals interested in applying for a mobile food service permit must submit an application, proposed menu, all assessed fees, HACCP plans (when required), and the establishment plans and specification documents to the local county health department in the county where the mobile food service operation’s base of operation is located.  The mobile food service unit must operate as an extension of a base of operation or a permitted food service establishment.  In addition to submitting the application for the mobile food service unit permit, the applicant must enclose a copy of the food service permit for the base of operation, a copy of the current county of origin approved menu, a copy of the most recent food service inspection report (if the facility is in operation), and list the 2 locations/routes that the mobile food service unit intends to operate within the county.  A separate application must be submitted to each county Health Authority that the mobile food service unit intends to operate. &quot;       

I didn&#039;t find anything addressing specifically how a mobile unit has to display their inspection report but what I read indicated that all food service establishments have to display inspection reports.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[But there really isn&#039;t a law at this point that makes a way for them to pay for property taxes on property they don&#039;t own.  Whoever they pay rent to, if they do, pays tax on their property.  

Should they have waited on the government to sort out their end of it, before they started their businesses, if or when that ever happens?  

It&#039;s like buying something from Amazon in GA.  No sales tax.  I don&#039;t buy from there to avoid sales tax, but the system just isn&#039;t set up like that yet, and that&#039;s not anyone&#039;s fault who purchases things from Amazon.  (Of course I always pay at the end of the year...)]]></description>
