. AMENDMENT TO COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT CONTRACT Mr. Zopf reviewed the changes made to the Consumer Protection Contract between Routt County and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. He said that the contract in part related to public health regulations that pertained to schools and other public facilities for which the County provided inspection services and that some rates for those services were to be changed by the State. He stated that the amendment directed that inspections be accompanied by a report completed on a laptop computer on-site and sent to the State. A copy of that report could also be provided to the food service operator at the time of an inspection. That procedure was a change from typed reports being mailed to the Denver office and would ensure that information was entered correctly into the State's database. He noted that Routt County inspected every school at least annually, a practice that was performed more often than required by the State and included building safety and laboratory safety checks as well as food service inspections. Another non-required food service inspection was performed by Routt County at special events because sanitary conditions could be easily compromised in such situations. MOTION Commissioner Mitsch Bush moved to approve and authorize the Chair to sign the Amendment to Environmental Health Contract between Routt County and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to include the following changes: ->Add a provision to allow an increase or decrease of service; based on the rates established in the contract; Add a requirement for the Routt County Environmental Health Department to input all inspection reports into the `digital health department' database within five calendar days after inspection, and. Require the number of inspections for certain establishments changed from 'two' to read, `two or at a frequency determined by risk'. Commissioner Monger seconded; the motion carried 2-0. Commissioner Stahoviak was absent.
