Hopefully we can get someone

to cook onboard,
City Council says

July 25, 2012 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- Chefs will soon start dishing out what they cook up -- inside their Chicago food trucks.
On Wednesday the Chicago City Council approved an ordinance that allows food truck operators to cook onboard.
Under the ordinance, food trucks can't park closer than 200 feet from a restaurant entrance unless they're in designated food-truck parking spots. Food trucks also will be required to have GPS to track their movements.
Chicago is known for high-end restaurants but has lagged behind other cities when it comes to the food truck craze.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the city's aldermen say the ordinance approved Wednesday is a good first step to expand the industry.
The trucks have been able to operate in Chicago, but chefs couldn't cook and prepare food in their vehicles.
