NEW BUSINESS:
There was a discussion about having Giant and Weis Markets inspected
more frequently than twice yearly for violations to keep the food stores
in compliance. It was tabled for now pending further discussion at
another meeting.
It was again discussed about inspecting the Grocery stores more
frequently because of the
Vast amount of food going through the stores but no action was taken.
The FDA Food Code states that all facilities are to be inspected twice
yearly except for Day Care Center and Senior Citizen Centers which are
inspected once a quarter.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS FOR 2010
Richard Bronstein will be the new President for 2010 and Bruce Goodman,
M.D. will be the Secretary for the Health Board.
Both nominations had no opposition and passed unanimously.
Lynn’s Report:
Texas Roadhouse has had a problem with mice. I received a complaint
about the restaurant from the Dept. of Agriculture and upon inspection
this was confirmed to be the case. The restaurant has had pest control
come in monthly and they were advised to contact them again to get the
company back in for additional treatment.
Aagan at Harrisburg has still some issues that needs to be worked on but
much better than the initial routine inspection in November.
OLD BUSINESS:
The Garrison System is being implemented. A meeting concerning the
Garrison System with the Dept. of Agriculture present did occur on
Tuesday, December 15, 2009 and 23 Restaurants participated in the
session. The whole program was discussed and gone over what all is
involved and how the program will be implemented by the township.
A motion was made by Carol Peters and seconded by Bruce Goodman, M.D. to
adjourn. The Health Board meeting was adjourned at 12:45p.m.
Next Health Board Meeting will be held on Thursday, January 21, 2010
