On November 19, 2020, this writer representing the Sanilac County Health Department
conducted a complaint investigation at the above captioned location. The department has
received multiple complaints regarding your food establishment operating in violation of the
Emergency Order under MCL 333.2253 — Gatherings and Face Mask Order as well as not
providing protective measures for employees.
In the complaints, it was stated your facility continues in the dining room service even after the
new emergency order took effect. In addition, numerous calls have been received regarding
employee safety standards not being followed, specifically not providing or requiring face mask
protections to your employees. Both of these specific complaints were verified during my visit.
As you’rr aware, we are in the midst of a global pandemic, itis imperative to adhere to all
‘emergency orders issued by the Michigan Department of Health Human Services (MDHHS).
‘The current Epidemic Order states in part:
“Bars and restaurants will be open for outdoor dining, carry-out and delivery only”. (MDHHS
Order Attached)
Currently, based on the number of days you have violated this order you have accumulated a
'$2000.00 fine that will be addressed in a second notice. Additional days will accumulate your
fine total as your facility operations continue to violate the Epidemic Order issued October 18,
2020. A separate violation order is being determined regarding the number of complaints
received and verified for the lack of safety and protections offered to your employees.
At this time, complaints are being forwarded to Michigan Occupational Safety and Health
‘Administration (MIOSHA). MIOSHA will administer further enforcement action in terms of fees
charged to your facility. More so, the department will be forced to escalate enforcement action,
specifically revocation of your operation license for year 2020 - 2021.‘You are required to follow all rules applicable from the Executive Orders directed by MDHHS in
order to reduce the spread of Covid-19. Should you fail to comply with this notice; further
administrative actions will be pursued as stated above,
Ifyou have and question, please contact this office at 810-648-2270.
Respectively,
Bryant WilkGRS.,
Health Officer/ Environmental Health Director
