Restaurant ratings - (wjtv.com)
September 10, 2007 – 8:26 pmState health officials now have a new and easier to use restaurant inspection rating system. This new system uses a color-coded inspection report, which should be displayed in a prominent location inside restaurants state-wide by the middle of the month. The reports are based on a letter grade inspection rating of A, B or C. The A and B rating will be green, and the C rating will be orange. Facilities will be given an “A” if they are not cited with any critical violations, a “B” if critical violations are cited but are corrected at the time of the inspection, and a “C” if critical violations are cited that cannot be corrected at the time of the inspection. Those violations must be corrected within a designated time period no longer than 10 days.
