(B)(1) Except as provided in division (B)(2) of
this | 867 |
section, if
a model food code is established by the United States | 868 |
food

drug administration, the Ohio uniform food safety code | 869 |
shall be based
on
the most current version of the food and drug | 870 |

the costs of licensing retail food establishments in the | 892 |
categories specified by the
director and the costs of licensing | 893 |
food service operations in the
categories specified by the | 894 |

director of agriculture and | 895 |
the public health council shall
consider any recommendations | 896 |
received from advisory boards or
other entities representing the | 897 |
interests of retail food
establishments and food service | 898 |
operations. | 899 |
(7)
With regard to any fees charged for licensing vending | 922 |
machine
locations, the rules shall prohibit a licensor from | 923 |
increasing fees
by a percentage of increase over the previous | 924 |
year's fee that
exceeds the percentage of increase in the consumer | 925 |
price index for
all urban consumers (United States city average, | 926 |
all items),
prepared by the United States department of labor, | 927 |
bureau of
labor
statistics, for the immediately preceding calendar | 928 |
year. | 929 |
(B)(1) If the licensor is a board of health, the board | 937 |
shall submit the form to the director of agriculture in the case | 938 |
of fees being charged for retail food establishment licenses, and | 939 |
to the director of health in the case of fees being charged for | 940 |
food service operation licenses. The board shall submit the form | 941 |
to the appropriate director not later than the first day of the | 942 |
fiscal year in which the fees will apply. A form that is mailed | 943 |
to the director shall be considered to have been submitted on its | 944 |

director of agriculture or
director of health shall review the | 947 |
form to determine if the board has calculated its fees in | 948 |
accordance with the uniform methodologies. The director may | 949 |
request that the auditor
of state conduct an audit of the board | 950 |
to determine if the fees it established are appropriate.
The audit | 951 |
is in addition to the
annual or biennial audit
conducted
pursuant | 952 |
to division (A) of
section 117.11 of the
Revised Code,
and the | 953 |
cost of the audit is the responsibility of
the board of
health. | 954 |

or director of
health | 955 |
has reasonable
cause to believe that a
different audit of a
board | 956 |
of health is in the public
interest,
the director may
request that | 957 |
the auditor of state conduct the
audit. If the
audit is | 958 |
conducted, the cost of the audit is the
responsibility of
the | 959 |
board of health. | 960 |
Sec. 3717.11. (A) Each
board of health shall be surveyed | 985 |
for the purpose of
determining whether the board is qualified and | 986 |
has the capacity to administer
and enforce
this chapter and the | 987 |
rules adopted under it and to abide by the
Ohio uniform food | 988 |
safety code.

food
establishments, the survey shall be conducted by the
director | 990 |
of agriculture. If the board licenses or
proposes to license food | 991 |
service operations, the survey shall

is qualified and has | 1000 |
the requisite capacity, the director conducting
the survey shall | 1001 |
approve the board as the
licensor
of retail food establishments or | 1002 |
food service operations,
whichever is being considered, for the | 1003 |
district the board serves. If a survey demonstrates that a board | 1004 |
is not qualified or does not have the requisite capacity,
the | 1005 |
director conducting the survey shall not approve the
board as a | 1006 |
licensor, or shall revoke the director's
approval, whichever is | 1007 |
appropriate. The board may appeal the decision to deny or
revoke | 1008 |
approval to the director taking the action. The appeal shall be | 1009 |
conducted in accordance with rules adopted under section 3717.33 | 1010 |
or 3717.52 of
the Revised Code, as applicable. | 1011 |
If approval is denied or revoked, the director
taking the | 1012 |
action shall designate an alternative licensor for
the
health | 1013 |
district
served by the board.
The alternative licensor shall be a | 1014 |
board of health that is
qualified and has the requisite
capacity | 1015 |
to serve as alternative
licensor, except that if a
qualified and | 1016 |
capable board is not
available from a
health district within | 1017 |
reasonable proximity, the
director that denied or revoked the | 1018 |
board's approval
shall act as
the alternative licensor. | 1019 |
(C) All fees charged under section 3717.25 or
3717.45 of the | 1026 |

had | 1027 |
its approval revoked shall be transferred to the alternative | 1028 |
licensor. A board of health acting as
alternative licensor shall | 1029 |
deposit the fees into a special fund
it establishes for receipt of | 1030 |
funds pertaining to the district
for which it is acting as | 1031 |
licensor.
If the director of agriculture is acting as licensor, | 1032 |
the
director shall deposit the fees in the food safety fund | 1033 |

deposited
under
this division shall be used solely for the | 1039 |
administration
and
enforcement of this chapter and the rules | 1040 |

licensor. | 1042 |
Sec. 3717.111. (A) A board of health acting as a licensor of | 1061 |
retail food establishments or food service operations may withdraw | 1062 |
from serving as licensor of either or both. Before withdrawing as | 1063 |
licensor, the board shall provide written notice of its intent to | 1064 |
withdraw. If the withdrawal applies to the licensing of retail | 1065 |
food establishments, the board shall provide the notice to the | 1066 |
director of agriculture. If the withdrawal applies to the | 1067 |
licensing of food service operations, the board shall provide the | 1068 |
notice to the director of health. On receipt of the notice, the | 1069 |
responsible director shall designate an alternative licensor for | 1070 |
the health district served by the board. The alternative licensor | 1071 |
shall be a
board of health that is qualified and has the requisite | 1072 |
capacity to serve as alternative licensor, except that if a | 1073 |
qualified and capable board is not available from a
health | 1074 |
district within reasonable proximity, the
director of agriculture | 1075 |
or director of health, as appropriate,
shall act as the | 1076 |
alternative
licensor. | 1077 |

3717.45 of the | 1084 |
Revised

licensor. A board of health acting as
alternative licensor shall | 1087 |
deposit the fees into a special fund
it establishes for receipt of | 1088 |
funds pertaining to the district
for which it is acting as | 1089 |
licensor.

the
director shall deposit the fees in the food safety fund | 1091 |
created
in section 915.24 of the Revised Code.

charged in the district by the | 1095 |
alternative licensor
shall be deposited in the same manner.

deposited under
this division shall be used solely for the | 1097 |

holder written
notice specifying | 1476 |
each violation and a reasonable time within
which the license | 1477 |

of any requirement of this
chapter or the rules adopted under it | 1514 |
applicable to retail food establishments
and that the violation | 1515 |
presents a clear and present danger to the public health, the | 1516 |
board
may suspend the retail food establishment license
without | 1517 |
giving written notice or affording the license holder the | 1518 |
opportunity to correct the violation.
