Food Sanitation Program
The purpose of this program is to safeguard public health in food operations and provide consumers with food that is safe, unadulterated, and honestly presented. This is accomplished through educating food establishment owners and operators in the reduction or elimination of the risk of transmission of microorganisms or communicable diseases through food preparation and operations, and promoting safe food handling and hygienic practices.
Food handling and processes must be consistent with the City of Moline Ordinances (Chapter 14) and the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) Food Code (2017 FDA Food Code).
If questions arise, please call Alexandra Morris at 309.524.2373 or email amorris@moline.il.us.
