【Promote Food Trucks and Community-Based Affordable Night Markets 】 【推動美食車經濟及以社區為本的平民夜市】
For many years, the Richmond Night Market has attracted visitors from across the region, raised Richmond’s profile, and made an important contribution to our local tourism and economy. 列治文夜市多年來成功吸引大量旅客,提升了列治文的知名度,並為本地旅遊及經濟作出重要貢獻。
We appreciate the efforts of its organizers and thank them for helping make Richmond one of Canada’s best-known food destinations. 我們感謝夜市主辦方多年來的努力,讓列治文成為加拿大其中一個最具代表性的美食及旅遊目的地。
With the current Night Market coming to an end, we have also heard the voices of many residents. Many believe Richmond’s next chapter should offer a more community-based approach, with more diverse, convenient, and affordable options that better reflect the needs of local neighbourhoods and families. 隨著現有夜市即將落幕,我們亦聽到不少市民的聲音,許多居民希望列治文未來的夜市文化能更貼近社區需要,提供更多元、更便利、更價格相宜的選擇,讓更多家庭及市民都能輕鬆享受夜市文化。
Richmond is home to one of Canada’s most diverse food cultures. We believe the City should actively promote a stronger food truck economy and community-based affordable night markets to support local businesses, encourage entrepreneurship, and provide residents with more high-quality, affordable dining options. 我們相信,列治文擁有世界級的多元美食文化。市政府應積極推動美食車經濟及以社區為本的平民夜市,帶動本地經濟,支持小商戶創業,並為市民提供更多優質、價格相宜的餐飲選擇。
We propose expanding opportunities for food trucks by increasing suitable operating locations, streamlining approvals, and lowering barriers for small businesses, family-owned enterprises, and aspiring chefs. 我們建議增加美食車合法營運地點,簡化申請程序,降低創業門檻,讓更多本地創業者、家庭式經營及年輕廚師有機會發展業務,為社區、公園及商業區注入活力。
We also propose promoting more community-based night markets with free admission and affordable food, giving residents and visitors access to authentic street food while supporting local vendors, strengthening neighbourhood business districts, and reducing traffic impacts by encouraging events throughout Richmond rather than concentrating them in a single location. 我們亦建議推動更多免收入場費、以社區為本、價格相宜的平民夜市,讓居民及旅客都能享受真正具本地特色、多元文化及高性價比的街頭美食,同時帶動各區商業發展,減少大型活動集中於單一地點所帶來的交通壓力。
We believe this is an opportunity to work together with residents, community organizations, and local businesses to build the next generation of Richmond’s street food culture: one that is more community-based, more vibrant, more affordable, and more accessible for everyone. 我們希望把握這個契機,與市民、社區及業界攜手打造更貼近社區需要、更具活力及更具吸引力的列治文街頭美食文化。
