Comments

Fly population is out of control and needs a comprehensive plan of action. To be reviewed.
The effective use of designated handsinks have been compromised by food and/or storage expansion. Staff have implemented workarounds that are less than ideal including less handwashing or washing hands exclusively in prep sinks. It is noted that one of the prep sinks has also been turned into a work surface.
MORE STORAGE SPACE IS NEEDED.
Cooling units are fine and keeping temps less than 4 C.
Dishwasher is at 74 C at plate.
Freezers ok.

**Trolley in basement walk-in falling apart and needs to be replaced. Safety hazard.
