What these findings mean
Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.

- Observation(s): 1. Sanitizer spray bottle labels had rubbed off over-time. Please ensure that all chemical bottles have a readable label to prevent the accidental contamination of food products or misuse of chemicals. 2. Weather stripping on the basement door required replacing. Please replace this stripping to prevent pest entry into the building. 3. Some shelving units are chipping and require refinishing. Chipped paint can physically contaminate food products and hinders the ability to effectively clean the shelves. These surfaces must be sealed or re-painted with food-grade paint/sealant so they are smooth, easily cleanable and impervious to moisture.
