The Grayson County Health Department has released January’s restaurant/food inspection results.
The rating score of the establishment is determined by subtracting weighted point values of noted violations from 100, officials said. Unannounced inspections observe the overall operation of the facility, including food source and protection; personnel; food equipment and utensils; maintenance of water and sewage systems; garbage and refuse disposal; insect, rodent and animal control; and storage of toxic items, among others.
Critical violations, four and five points in weight, are items, which if uncorrected, carry the potential to be an imminent threat to the public’s health. These items must be corrected in a time designated by the health department not to exceed 10 days.
