compliance with the Colorado Retail Food Establishment Rules and Regulations. The Department of
Public Health and Environment has given the facility all the opportunities to come into compliance, but
there have been repeated violations resulting in the assessment of three civil penalties within a 12-month
period. In addition, during this time period, multiple critical violations were noted that have the potential
to directly result in illnesses of patrons dining at the establishment. Dan Joseph, Department of Public
Health and Environment, presented a slide presentation displaying the critical violations and history of
the violations. He reviewed the specifics of the violations and explained the reason for this meeting is to
help the facility come into compliance and keep them from having repeat violations. However, staff did
have to assess the 3rd penalty, so the facility needs to hire a consultant. This was not done to penalize
the facility, but to help train the entire staff during regular business hours. Mr. Joseph stated staff would
like to have a change in management and use of the $500 penalty to defray costs to bring the
establishment into compliance. The facility itself is not dirty, and in the past the issues were from faulty
equipment. Now it has more to do with personnel issues. a In response to Commissioner Moreno,
Mr. Joseph stated there have not been any reported illnesses. Mr. Joseph explained that within a
year an averse facility would have up to three (3) inspections, but this restaurant has had nine (9)
inspections. IN Mandy Luna, restaurant owner, and Alfredo Baldivieso, interpreter, were present.
Ms. Luna stated she understands what staff is recommending for the restaurant, and understands there
may have been risks in the past, but she feels back on track after meeting with the emergency consultant
and that she has done a better job. Ms. Luna explained that sometimes when the deliveries arrive and
she has customers, she doesn't have time to put the food away. a Mr. Baldivieso stated the consultant
felt the store was really clean and didn't find any issues, but suggested they start using temperature logs.
He also suggested there may be some miscommunication between the consultant and the Health
Department. a Ms. Luna stated out of the thirteen employees, nine received training from the
consultant. She explained that she has been in business for five (5) years, and in response to
Commissioner Moreno, Ms. Luna stated she has recently hired cooks and goes in and checks on them,
but then goes home to care for her family. Ms. Luna reported to the Board that Janice Brown is the
consultant who came to the restaurant on an emergency basis. a Commissioner Kirkmeyer asked
for clarification on the number of employees who received training. Ms. Luna explained she has not
received the training yet, as she had a difficult time getting the consultants to call her back. Commissioner
Kirkmeyer made known there were 69 violations in the last year; 53 were critical, and just because
Ms. Luna doesn't have knowledge or documentation of anyone getting sick doesn't mean no one became
ill. Commissioner Kirkmeyer noted there were several repeat violations over the ast 12 months and it is
the Commissioners' task to ensure the protection of the restaurant patrons. PA Commissioner Cozad
stated she agrees with comments made concerning the level of inspections and the repeat violations.
She feels a big part of the problem is management because the manager needs to be at the restaurant
to make sure the employees follow the rules and she needs to attend the training herself.
Commissioner Moreno expressed he believes it is important to suspend the license and close the
business to allow for training. eCommissioner Cozad moved to suspend the license and follow all
staff recommendations, and use the $500.00 civil penalty to hire a consultant. Seconded by
Commissioner Kirkmeyer, the motion carried unanimously. Chair Freeman stated the restaurant cannot
operate until everyone receives training, including the manager, and another inspection takes place.

Consent Agenda. No Ordinances were approved.
