The City of Plainfield requires that all retail food establishments (e.g. Restaurants, Grocery Stores, Schools, special events, Mobile trucks, etc.) obtain a Health License. These Health licenses help ensure that each establishment is registered and approved by the Health Department. The Health Department is responsible for conducting inspections of all retail food establishments in accordance with Chapter 24, Sanitation in Retail Food Establishments and Food and Beverage Vending Machines.

New business owners who plan to operate a retail food establishment must take several steps to ensure they are in compliance with city and state codes.

  • Obtain approvals from the zoning and building department for the anticipated location
  • Submit Plan Review application ($100 fee) to the health department- The inspector will review the application with the applicant
  • The Health Inspector will then conduct a pre-operational inspection of the establishment once inspections from the building department (Plumbing, Electrical, Fire) have been completed
  • Complete the Health License Application (see fee schedule) and obtain approval to operate
  • The health inspector will perform an Inspection of the establishment, rating the conditions found (Note: All new establishments must obtain a satisfactory rating).
