The Hasbrouck Heights Board of Health unanimously agreed on Jan. 8, 2025, to close the Bendix Diner until violations are brought into compliance with the Hasbrouck Heights Fire Department and the Health Department. Fire Chief Rob Knoblock described the condition of the diner and Health Inspector Helen Harris reported conditional findings before the board’s decision.
The minutes record a “lengthy discussion” among board members and staff, after which the board agreed to close the diner. The minutes do not list the specific violations, nor do they record a formal motion text, a mover/second, or a roll-call vote for the closure; they record the board’s unanimous agreement to close until compliance is achieved.
The closure is listed under “Old Business” and will remain in effect until both the fire department and health department verify that the identified violations have been corrected. The minutes do not provide a timeline for reinspection or reopening.
