HEALTH:
1) CONSIDER SUSPENSION OF COLORADO RETAIL FOOD ESTABLISHMENT LICENSE -
GREAT WALL: Deb Adamson, Department of Public Health and Environment, stated the subject
restaurant has failed to maintain compliance with the Colorado Retail Food Establishment Rules and
Regulations; furthermore, staff has given the business every opportunity to come into compliance. In light
of repeated violations resulting in three civil penalties within a 12-month period, including additional
multiple critical violations noted and having the potential to cause illness to patrons, staff is recommending
a short-term suspension. Dan Joseph, Department of Public Health and Environment, presented a
PowerPoint presentation citing the inspection history and repeated violations resulting in civil penalties.
There have been three (3) regular inspections and four (4) follow-up inspections and during this time
there have been 41 citied violations. He stated the critical violations included improper cold and
hot-holding. There is evidence of rodents, moldy food products, and issues with cleaning. He explained
the three (3) civil penalties and recommendations are for suspension of the license until these problems
are resolved. The $1,000 assessment can be used towards hiring a consultant. Ci Commissioner
Conway asked about the 30 critical violations and inquired how many of those are repeat violations and
if the violations were due to faulty equipment. In response to Commissioner Cozad, Mr. Joseph
stated the owners have paid the civil penalties and the assessments were used to purchase racking for
the walk-in cooler to allow more food to be stored. Jiewen Yuan, owner, explained they have cleaned
up the restaurant, set up traps to get rid of the rodents, and cleaned the racks in the walk-in cooler.
In response to Commssioner Moreno, Mr. Yuan explained the restaurant is family owned and they have
been operating for seven (7) years. He responded to Commissioner Conway stating they leave food out
because they get busy and forget to put the food back in the cooler. Chair Kirkmeyer asked Mr.
Yuan if he and his Dad are the owners and managers of the restaurant and have they participated in
training offered by the health department. She asked Mr. Yuan if he understands the seriousness of the
violations and what suggestions he has to fix the issues. Mr. Yuan explained there is a total of six people
as staff but the others haven't received training because they don't speak English. la Ms. Adamson
pointed out the owner was given the information for the consultant and online course and told them the
training can be done in their language. Mr. Yuan expressed they haven't done the training because they
don't have time. = Chair Kirkmeyer expressed the importance of finding time for the online training
and suggested closing the restaurant until a consultant is hired. Commissioner Cozad also suggested
suspending the license until a consultant who speaks chinese can come in and get everyone trained.
Commissioner Conway expressed his frustration that the owners are willing to pay the fines instead
of taking time to get the restrauant in compliance. He stated he doesn't believe they understand the
seriousness of the violation because they don't have time to take courses or to talk with the owners of
King Wah to learn from their experience. He stated he understands there are challenges of running a
small business but the owners should have concerns about people's well-being and health.
la Commissioner Cozad moved to approve said resolution. Seconded by Commissioner Conway, the
motion carried unanimously. Chair Kirkmeyer explained to Mr. Yuan that his license has been suspended
and staff must receive training and pass two (2) follow-up inspections.
RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES: The resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the
Consent Agenda. No Ordinances were approved.
Let the minutes reflect that the above and foregoing actions were attested to and respectfully submitted
by the Clerk to the Board.
