BAKERY. Any establishment used for any process of mixing, compounding, or baking, for sale or the purpose of a restaurant, bakery, or hotel, any food product of which flour or meal is the principal ingredient. Restaurants in which any such food product is mixed and baked for consumption in such restaurants only, ordinary restaurant kitchen stoves or ranges, and kitchen or rooms in dwellings where any such food product is mixed and baked in an ordinary stove or range, shall not be considered bakeries.

All parts of the bakery shall be adequately lighted at all times and shall be ventilated by means of windows, skylights, air shafts or ducts, or mechanical apparatus, if necessary, to insure free circulation of fresh air at all times. Ventilation, construction, and equipment shall be of such character that a complete change of air in all parts of the bakery may be made at least four times each hour, provided that it shall not be necessary to ventilate at such times or in such manner that the process of mixing or raising dough shall be interfered with or prevented.
(D) Deliveries. No goods or food-stuffs produced by or in a bakery shall be delivered other than in a wrapper or bag of suitable material to keep goods clean.
(E) Floors. The floor of every place used as a bakery, if below street level, shall be constructed of concrete, cement, asphalt, or other impervious material or of tile laid on cement. The floor may, if desired, be covered with a hardwood floor having tight joists or may be of any impervious material as above provided.
