Restaurant inspections protect public
About every six months, a sanitarian from the Marietta City Health Department conducts an inspection at the Busy Bee Restaurant on Gilman Avenue in Marietta.
And although the sanitarian always visits the restaurant without warning, Georgann Wade, co-owner of the restaurant, said she’s always happy to see him or her coming.
“We’re glad to have them here,” she said. “It keeps us on our toes.”
Sanitarians with the Marietta and Belpre health departments conduct inspections at food service operations within their respective city limits. The Washington County Health Department inspects all other food service operations in the county.
The sanitarians fill out a report each time they conduct an inspection, and the reports are a matter of public record.
Wade said she likes the fact that the general public has access to this information.
“I think the public needs to know when they walk into a restaurant what they’re getting into,” she said.
