News

March 8th, 2012: Today (3/8/12), Judge Tim Sulak entered an order that will allow Planet K to continue its temporary vending operation at the Hwy 71 location, until May 14 when trial is scheduled to begin. The City immediately filed its notice of appeal of the order to the Austin Court of Appeals.Importantly, the Court made no finding that any of the City of Bee Cave building codes or ordinances are invalid, unenforceable, or unconstitutional. The Court, at the City’s request, set the case for trial at the earliest available date so all issues can be addressed on the merits at that time. Until a trial on the merits or relief from the Third Court of Appeals, this injunction enjoins the City of Bee Cave from enforcing Plant K’s failure to obtain a temporary vending permit.While the City would have preferred for the court to deny the  request for a temporary injunction, the court’s ruling in no way expands, condones, or validates  the prohibited vending activities which have been taking place for several months. The City remains steadfast in its commitment to protect the health and safety of all citizens and visitors through the enforcement of its duly adopted building codes and ordinances enacted to protect community well-being and property values in and around the community of Bee Cave. The elected and appointed officials for the City of Bee Cave will vigorously defend the interests of the citizens at trial.
