Health department cracks down on unsanitary businesses
The recent government meeting commenced with the approval of previous minutes, which passed without opposition. Health inspection reports were presented, revealing that 66 regular inspections were conducted, with 18 requiring rechecks. Notably, one business was temporarily closed for seven days due to unsanitary conditions but has since reopened. The department also addressed ongoing issues with open grilling on sidewalks, indicating that while a media release has led to some compliance, approximately 60% of establishments continue to violate regulations.

Inquiries were made regarding after-hours violations, with officials confirming that the non-emergency police number should be contacted for such incidents.

The meeting also covered updates on lead abatement efforts, with 23 federal units and 12 state units completed. An additional 13 units are in various stages of processing. Officials expressed intentions to reapply for government funding, aiming for a one-year extension of the current grant to meet required unit completions.
