The Food Sanitation Services program of the Enviornmental Health Office maintains a food inspection program of food service establishments and caterers to protect the public's health. The office also provides health education and information on safe food handling practices. For information concerning this program call one of the following field offices.
To operate a temporary food stand, you must obtain an Erie County Health Permit and conform with the requirements of the State Sanitary Code for Temporary Food Service Establishments Part 14-2. Operation of a frozen dessert machine requires an additional fee of $25.
Please fill out the application and return it along with the proper fee to the address indicated at least five (5) days prior to the event to avoid an additional $40.00 late filing fee.
Your temporary stand is subject to inspection by this Department at any time during its operation to insure compliance with the State Sanitary Code.
If you require further information or have any questions regarding this matter, please contact the appropriate District Office (listed below) at your earliest convenience.
