We also are involved in handling the nuisance complaints of the public. Generally, they involve problems with water, wastewater, food establishments, and other potential health hazards.

Environmental Health also is in charge of properly permitting all the food establishments and various other establishments that we inspect. Included in the permits are restaurants, mobile food units, and temporary food units.
