Far-left Brooklyn Councilman Lincoln Restler is pushing new legislation that would require Mr. Softee and other Big Apple ice cream trucks to stop powering their soft-serve machines and freezers with generators that use fuel.

The bill would require the vendors to switch over to environmentally friendly alternatives like electric or solar power — likely at a cost of $5,000 or more.

Heh, we had our own witch here in Palm Beach County, Priscilla Taylor, who was going after the food trucks. She lost that battle but still has a seat. Career politician through and through and she's the type to try make things worse, not better.

I used to go after ice cream trucks all the time when I was a kid.

They're trying to shrink the tax base and put people out of business.
