(Ord. 1642 (part); Ord. 2176)
An application for a permit to operate and maintain a food facility shall be filed by the owner or owners of the food facility with the health department. Such application shall be in the form prescribed by the health officer, and shall contain the information and be accompanied by such plans and specifications as may be required by the health officer in order to determine whether the food facility complies with the sanitation requirements set forth in Chapter 4, Part 7, Division 104 of the California Health and Safety Code, any regulations adopted by the State Department of Health Services to implement or administer such sanitation requirements, and any local food facility standards adopted by or pursuant to the provisions of this chapter. In addition, such application shall be accompanied by a permit application fee; provided, that if a food facility has been unlawfully operated or maintained without a permit, such application shall also be accompanied by a late filing fee in an amount equal to 50 percent of the application fee, which late filing fee shall be in addition to the application fee.
(Ord. 1642 (part); Ord. 2176; Ord. 2189 §4)
A permit to operate and maintain a food facility shall be issued by the health officer to the owner or owners of such food facility if, following the filing of an application for such permit, the health officer determines that such food facility complies with the sanitation requirements set forth in Chapter 4, Part 7, Division 104 of the California Health and Safety Code, any regulations adopted by the State Department of Health Services to implement or administer such sanitation requirements, and any local food facility standards adopted by or pursuant to the provisions of this chapter.
