Food: service establishments; evaluation of food establishments; modify. Amends secs. 2105, 2111, 2132, 3115, 4103 & 6135 of 2000 PA 92 (MCL 289.2105 et seq.).
This bill amends Michigan's Food Law to update procedures for inspecting food establishments and handling seized food items. It grants state officials expanded authority to enter facilities, review records, and take photos or videos to evaluate compliance with safety rules. The legislation also allows for in-office consultations instead of on-site inspections for temporary food vendors serving low-risk items and clarifies how local health departments should process license applications. Additionally, it permits the state to enter agreements with other agencies for training and assistance while protecting trade secrets found during evaluations.
