Donut Truck Sues Evanston Over Food Truck Regulations

Food Truck Battle Expands To The Suburbs

One donut truck is pitting itself against the city of Evanston over the city’s requirement that food trucks must be operated by brick and mortar restaurants within city limits.

On Tuesday, Beavers Coffee & Donuts filed suit against the city of Evanston in Cook County Circuit Court’s chancery division.

“We’ve been to Evanston for a couple of events at Northwestern, and that’s how the whole situation arose,” owner Gabriel Wiesen told Patch. Most recently, he and co-owner Jim Nuccio had obtained a temporary permit to operate at Dillo Day.
