GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. (KDVR) — Restaurants in Adams and Douglas counties will continue to be inspected for health code violations by Tri-County Health inspectors through 2022, according to Tri-County Health.
Tri-County completes regular health and complaint-based inspections at thousands of restaurants in the tri-county area including Arapahoe County.
“Our current understanding is that our services will remain fully intact through the end of next year,” said Becky O’Guin Tri-County Health’s spokesperson.
Adams county informed Tri-County on Tuesday that commissioners voted to pull out of the health department. Douglas County voted to leave the Tri-County system in September.
According to O’Guin, both Douglas and Adams counties have the option to contract with Tri-County to continue restaurant inspections past next year.
Retail restaurant inspections are conducted to ensure compliance with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
“TCHD uses a risked base inspection frequency formula approved by CDPHE to determine inspection intervals and we expect to continue to use that approach moving forward,” said O’Guin.
