Bullitt County Permit Overview
Bullitt County — south of Louisville, covering Shepherdsville, Mt. Washington, and Hillview — is served by the Bullitt County Health Department, which operates independently from Louisville Metro. The county is growing rapidly as a Louisville suburb, creating opportunities for food truck operators serving residential neighborhoods and the industrial corridor along I-65.

Bullitt County's proximity to the Louisville market means operators who want to serve both Bullitt County and Louisville Metro will need to navigate two separate permitting systems. The statewide Kentucky MFU permit structure allows operators to use their Bullitt County permit anywhere in Kentucky with 48-hour advance notice — including in NKY.
