(A) A person may not operate a food establishment without a permit issued by the regulatory authority. Permits are not transferable from one person to another or from one location to another location, except as otherwise permitted by this subchapter. A valid permit must be posted per § 95.36 in or on every food establishment regulated by this subchapter.
(B) Application and renewal.
(1) Any person desiring to operate a food establishment must make written application for a permit on forms provided by the regulatory authority. The application must contain the name and address of each applicant, the location and type of the proposed food establishment, and any information required by § 95.36. The application must be submitted with the applicable fee. An incomplete application will not be accepted.
(2) Failure to provide all required information or falsifying information required may result in denial or revocation of the permit.
(3) All permits issued under this section shall remain in force for one year from the date of issuance unless revoked or suspended by the regulatory authority. Permit fees shall be paid to the regulatory authority at the time of application for initial permits and 15 days prior to permit expiration for renewal permits. All permit holders, including non-profits, that submit renewal applications and or fees after the permit expires will be assessed a late charge. A complete application with updated information is required for each renewal permit. Any changes to the physical facility, menu or equipment must be reported to the regulatory authority when renewing permits.
