I have had previous <br /> discussions with the principal, office staff and foodservice regarding this stand in <br /> front of the office. <br /> Please select one of the following options to achieve compliance with Hennepin <br /> County Food Protection Ordinance 3: <br /> 1. Cease and desist the popcorn stand operation. <br /> 2. Locate the machine in the school's licensed kitchen for operation by <br /> trained food handling staff. Check with the City Building Official to <br /> see if this unit must be located under an exhaust hood. Popcorn <br /> may then be served in the cafeteria or if it is prebagged and sealed, <br /> it may be distributed at the present location in the hallway. <br /> 3. Construct an approved foodservice stand, incorporating <br /> handwashing facilities, and obtain an additional license. Plans must <br /> be submitted for approval to our department and the City of Orono <br /> prior to construction. A basic 3-hour, food handler training course <br /> would be required for the staff_ of the concession stand. Enclosed is <br /> a plan review application and construction guide. <br /> Please notify me in writing of which option you have selected to achieve <br /> compliance with Hennepin County Ordinance 3, prior to September 1, 2004. If <br /> you have any questions, please contact me at (952) 351-5207. <br /> Sin erely, (� <br /> Pamela A.
