City discusses request for food truck downtown

After receiving a request in January to have a food truck once a month on the Graham downtown square, the Graham City Council tabled and then denied the request in order to host a public hearing and have the public voice their concerns or support. In January, Alexander Smith, who owns the Panda Pearl boba truck in Graham, made a request to the city to have access to the square once a month and cited the Chick-fil-A food truck, which was given access to the square in September 2023. Smith requested an electrical hookup, if available, and said he would pay for power usage.
