Health inspectors issue charges, orders between May 16 and 22

Public health inspectors handed out tickets for violations under the province’s Health Protection and Promotion Act at two York Region eateries for the period between Monday, May 16 and Sunday, May 22.

• Sushi Garden, 17915 Leslie St., Newmarket was charged with not maintaining clean floors in a food-handling room.

• Copacabana Brazilian Steakhouse, 205 Marycroft Ave., Vaughan was issued an order on May 18 after a fire occurred that adversely affected the integrity of the food and the operation of the premises.

Charges do not necessarily result in failure of the health inspection; they simply highlight problems for which the establishments were penalized. The establishments are given a chance to get back into compliance and pass their health inspections.
