(A7* 7Q SNOHOMISH oo COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT November 20, 2024 Jonathan Orozco Project: Remodel/Revision to Approved Plan, Existing Facility Subject: Los Novillos Family Mexican Restaurant Address: 4131 Rucker Ave., Everett, WA 98203 Dear Jonathan: After reviewing your plans with the Rules and Regulations of the State Board of Health, and with the policies of the Snohomish County Health Department, your plans for the revision of Los Novillos Family Mexican Restaurant have been approved. The approval was based upon the scope of work, floor plan, and equipment list submitted 08/15/2024 and 11/19/2024. Any changes to the plans without preapproval from the Health Department will void this approval. A preoperational inspection is required prior to approval to operate under the new conditions. At the time of inspection, the construction of the food service establishment must be complete, and all equipment must be in place and in proper operating condition. Incomplete construction or equipment operation will result in a $215.00 re-inspection fee. Contact the Food Program office a minimum of 2 weeks in advance to schedule an appointment for the preoperational inspection. Please review the following requirements and conditions of operation before scheduling: 1. Scope of project: Changing the name of the restaurant to Los Novillos Family Mexican Restaurant and adding a 3-compartment sink and a mop sink. 2. No food storage or preparation is allowed in the new equipment prior to the preoperational inspection and approval to open for business. 3. If deficiencies are observed with your operation that may cause an unnecessary risk to public health, you may be required to comply with corrective actions by a given due date, regardless of any approval previously given. This includes, but is not limited to, substitutions or additions to refrigeration, limiting your menu, or modifying your food handling processes. 4. Since the food establishment will be in operation during part of the remodel, dust barriers must be installed to ensure that food protection and safety are not compromised during all applicable phases of the remodel. The food establishment will be required to discontinue operations if any disruption in water, electrical, or sewer service occurs, due to the remodel. 5. Proper handwash stations must be kept accessible and functional during all hours of food service establishment operation. A handwashing sink must be located: (1) To allow convenient use by employees; (2) Within twenty-five feet, or as approved, of food preparation, food dispensing, and warewashing areas; and (3) In, or immediately adjacent to, toilet rooms. 6. The ceiling above all areas of food preparation, food handling, and dishwashing areas must be non- perforated, non-absorbent, smooth, and easily cleanable. This includes server stations and front counter areas where open foods are handled. Light bulbs must be shielded, coated, or otherwise shatter-resistant in areas where there is exposed food, clean equipment, utensils, and linens, or unwrapped single-service and single-use articles. 7. All finishes must smooth, non-absorbent, durable, and easily cleanable. 3020 Rucker Avenue, Suite 104 0 Everett, WA 98201-3900 0 tel: 425.339.5250 0 fax: 425.339.5254
