Buffalo Vendors

Even as Chattanooga's City Council debates banning vendors from the streets, Buffalo, New York is discovering that it misses the old pushcarts. So it's bringing vendors back. But how will it prevent public spaces from turning into a melee of ice cream trucks and and hot dog men? How can the anarchy be controlled? Can anything be done to regulate these ravenous salesmen?

To make the new offerings work, the conservancy chose a range of specific places vendors may bid on for a three-year contract with a minimum annual fee of $600.

Oh, that would never work. Better to ban the vendors altogether.
