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.
Equipment and utensilsLower risk
Equipment has to be built from cleanable materials, kept in good repair and stored properly. These findings are mostly about upkeep, like a cracked shelf, a worn gasket or utensils stored the wrong way. They are generally lower risk but show how well the kitchen is maintained.
Recorded once on May 7, 2025. For example:
Furniture, equipment and appliances in food handling and storage rooms are constructed and arranged so as to permit thorough cleaning and the maintenance of the premises in a clean and sanitary condition (NC)
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded once on June 11, 2026. For example:
All food is processed in a manner that makes the food safe to eat (C)
