Routine food service inspections are a vital part of protecting a community’s overall health and the St. Clair County Health Department inspects different county licensed food service establishments every month.
“St. Clair County has over 500 establishments that are inspected on a risk-based schedule. The types of food served, the food preparation processes used, the volume of food, and population served along with the facility’s compliance history all have a bearing on the occurrence of foodborne illness risk factors in foodservice establishments,” the department said on its website.
Below are details on health inspections performed at restaurants, schools and other locations in St. Clair County serving food between Feb. 1 and Feb 27. The St. Clair County Health Department publishes the results of its inspections online.
What types of restaurant violations are noted?
Priority Item Violation: These violations are related directly to the safety of the food, such as improper handling and preparation, and put food at risk of contamination. Priority violations must be corrected immediately, or within 10 days if the issue can’t be fixed immediately.
