Little Rock Board of Director's press city for hot dog cart ordinance Board of Directors Brad Cazort  -  Ward 4 board@littlerock.org Tuesday, November 2, 2010 In a heroic & unexpected attempt to bring Little Rock closer into the era of modern city vending, Little Rock Board of Director Brad Cazort of Ward-4, directly pressed for a response from Little Rock City Manager Bruce Moore in the Nov. 1 board meeting.  His question was,  why hasn't the Board been presented with an official hot dog cart ordinance for this year?
