The Health District's Food Safety Program works with local food businesses, state and federal government regulators, and our community to reduce the rate of foodborne illness in our region.

T
he Food Safety Program oversees plan reviews, inspections, complaints and foodborne illness outbreaks in food establishments like restaurants, grocery stores, convenience stores, schools and more. The Food Program also regulates school safety in K-12 schools, and provides education to reduce the risk of illness and injury from poisons, animal-borne diseases, and other unsafe conditions in our environment.
