<title>OP-ED: Food vendors are bad for business</title>
<author>By Tony Gentile</author>
<description><![CDATA[Food Carts have evolved into kitchens on wheels that operate on the sidewalks &#8212; using grills fueled by gas and propane tanks with illuminated signage. These are stationary businesses with as many as three employees per shift &#8212; operating 20 hours per day. They employ a full-time manager and wear uniform polo shirts. This is a well-organized business that takes space on public sidewalks using the amenities, sidewalk cleaning services, and street furniture paid for by assessments levied to protect property and business owners. <a href="http://www.brooklyndaily.com/stories/2012/19/all_opedgentile_2012_05_04_bk.html">Read more.</a>
