RESTAURANT CLOSURE REPORT

The environmental health division of Orange County’s Health Care Agency performs routine, unannounced inspections of the county’s more than 11,000 restaurants, markets and other food establishments. When conditions violate state law or applicable county and municipal codes, inspectors may issue notices of violation. If inspectors find during an announced recheck that conditions have not been corrected, they may effectively close the business by suspending its health permit. Health permits are reinstated as soon as the situation is corrected. Here is a rundown for October, the most recent information available:
