ST. JOHNS — When county health inspectors visit local restaurants, they document problems that need addressing to meet Clinton County’s health code.
The most serious problems are considered priority violations, which present potential health hazards and should be corrected immediately. Priority foundation violations do not present immediate health hazards but should be corrected in a timely manner. Follow-up inspections and reports may consequently happen.
In most cases, the violations are corrected, and this information isn’t an indication that violations at any establishment are still an ongoing issue.
Here are the most serious violations in Clinton County for restaurants for the month of March.
Country Kitchen, 8875 M-21, Ovid
Violation : Priority
Inspection date : March 21
Inspection type : Routine
Problem : Food law compliance
Comments : “At the time of the inspection, it was noted that there was a carton of brown eggs from a local egg producer that did not appear to have any documentation, or no information was provided, that proves that the eggs comply with the Michigan Food Law. No indication of USDA or MDARD inspection was able to be provided. At this time, this carton of eggs (is) not approved for use within the food establishment, as they do not meet the requirements of the Food Code or Food Law.”
