Scheduling qualified mobile food vendors for service on various days/times, and maintaining an on-line calendar on our website indicating which vendors(s) will be serving on a particular day and time (the service days/hours available for vendors to book themselves will be recommended by the WSFTA and approved by the city),

Mediating any conflicts or disputes between mobile food vendors,

Coordinating marketing and promotional efforts with the city, and promoting the food vendors and vending locations via WSFTA social media accounts, WSFTA website, press releases, and other promotional materials such as posters and handouts,
