Not That Sweet food license appears in Salt Lake County health records

Not That Sweet food license appears in Salt Lake County health records

Rule Changes Salt Lake City, UT local

The entry surfaces 10 days before the 8th annual Maven Block Party in Salt Lake City.

Today: Not That Sweet license listed

Overview

Updated 40 minutes ago

Salt Lake County health records now list a food establishment license for Not That Sweet at 900 South 200 East, the address of this year's Maven Block Party. The entry showed up on the county's public permit list on September 16, 2026, ten days before the event.

In Salt Lake County, the health department must license anyone selling food to the public, including one-day event booths. That license is one approval among several; it doesn't confirm every permit or guarantee the vendor opens. The block party, a market of women-owned businesses, runs September 26 along 900 South between 200 East and Edison Street.

Why it matters

A county health permit is the gatekeeper for selling food at Salt Lake City events; Not That Sweet now has one on file.

Scenarios

1

Not That Sweet serves the block party crowd

Likely Resolves by Q3 2026

Discussed by: MAVEN's event materials and local Salt Lake City vendor coverage

The event runs as scheduled on September 26 and Not That Sweet operates its booth along 900 South. The health license is one required step; with other approvals in place, the vendor participates in the women-owned market. This is the base case for a licensed vendor that completed registration.

2

Vendor pulls out before event day

Unlikely Resolves by Sep 26, 2026

Discussed by: MAVEN's own refund policy, which notes vendors cancel

Not That Sweet withdraws over weather, staffing, or scheduling before September 26. MAVEN's refund rules treat cancellations as common enough to have a tiered policy. The license stays on file but the business never sets up its tent.

3

Weather or permit snag postpones the event

Unlikely Resolves by Sep 26, 2026

Discussed by: MAVEN's FAQ, which addresses bad-weather contingencies

Inclement weather on September 26 forces MAVEN to postpone or cancel the block party. That would push the market, and Not That Sweet's licensed booth, to a later date or end it for the year. MAVEN's FAQ flags weather as a recognized risk, so the scenario is plausible even if uncommon.

Historical Context

2 moments from history that rhyme with this story — and how they unfolded.

April 2008

NYC Green Cart program (2008)

New York City issued permits for 1,000 mobile produce carts to sell fresh fruit and vegetables in low-income neighborhoods. The program folded street vendors into formal regulation instead of leaving them unlicensed.

Then

More vendors got legal permits and underserved areas gained fresh-produce access.

Now

The program became a model for structured mobile food vending in other cities.

Why this matters now

Shows how cities build formal permit paths for vendors who once operated informally; Salt Lake County's food establishment license works the same way for a one-day market booth.

2009-2012

Los Angeles food truck rulemaking (2009-2012)

Los Angeles rewrote rules for mobile food trucks, moving them from a gray-area business into licensed operations subject to health inspections and parking limits.

Then

More trucks operated with county permits and regular inspections.

Now

Food trucks became a mainstream dining channel across the country.

Why this matters now

Same principle as Not That Sweet's situation: a health permit is the gatekeeper for selling food to the public, whether from a truck or a one-day block-party tent.
