CHANGE IN FOOD SERVICE
When changes are made to a food service establishment (such as a change of name, menu, seating or equipment) Environmental Health must be notified. This helps the division ensure that the changes still meet safe food handling practices and state and local regulations.
Documents
All of the required forms and regulations are available online. These basic documents pertain to all changes in food service:
If there is a remodel of a food service establishment, increased seating capacity, or a substantial change to the menu, a full plan review must be completed. The following documents are for a full plan review.
Food Service Plan Review Packet
Printed Change of Food Preparation packets are also available from Environmental Health. Please contact the division for copies.
Fees
A plan review or technical assistance fee will be charged. The fee ranges from $70 to $210, depending on the changes to the business. For specific plan review fee information, please contact Environmental Health.
If the change in service changes the classification of an establishment, the annual permit fee will be adjusted. Once the plan review has been completed, a prorated fee for the new classification will be charged for the remainder of the fee year (July 1-June 30).
Change in Ownership
When someone buys or sells a food service establishment, Environmental Health must be notified of the change in order to issue a permit to the new owner. This can be done using the Notice of Change and Food Handling Procedures forms above. For more information, you may see our section on Change of Ownership.
Contact Environmental Health with questions or comments about the information on this page.
