APPENDIX B: LABORATORY TESTING PROGRAM
Tests were conducted in our laboratory on representative soil samples for t he purpose of classification and evaluation of their physical properties and engineering characteristics.
The amount and selection of tests were based on the geotechnical parameters required for this project. Test results are presented herein and on the Lo gs of Borings, in Appendix A, Field Exploration. The following is a summary of the various laboratory tests conducted for this project.
In-Situ Moisture Content and Dry Density
Results of these tests, which were performed on relatively undisturbed ring samples, were used to aid in soils classification and to provide quantitative measure of the in-situ dry density and moisture content. Data obtained from these tests provides qualitative information on strength and compressibility characteristics of the site soils. For test results, see the Logs of Borings in Appendix A, Field Exploration.
Expansion Index Test
Five representative bulk samples were tested to evaluate the expansion potential. The tests were conducted in accordance with ASTM Standard D4829. T he test results are presented in the following table.

Soil Corrosivity
Seven representative soil samples were tested by EG Laboratory in accordance with California Test Methods 643, 422, and 417, to determine minimum electrical resistivity, pH, and chemical content, including soluble sulfate and chloride concentrations. The purpose of these tests was to determine the corrosion potential of site soils when placed in contact with common pipe materials. Test results are presented on the following table.

Collapse Test
To evaluate the moisture sensitivity (collapse potential) of the encountered soils, 2 representative ring samples were loaded to approximately 2 kips, allowed to stabilize under load, and then submerged. The test was performed in accordance with A STM Standard D4546. The test results are presented in the following table.

Direct Shear
Seven direct shear tests were performed on relatively undisturbed representative soil samples at soaked moisture conditions, in accordance with the ASTM D3080 method.
For each test, three samples contained in a brass sampler ring were placed, one at a time, directly into the test apparatus and subjected to a range of normal loads appropriate for the anticipated conditions. The samples were then sheared at a constant strain rate of 0.004 to 0.02 inch/minute depending on the soil type. Shear deformation was recorded until a maximum of about 0.25 -inch shear displacement was achieved.
Ultimate strength was selected from the shear-stress deformation data and plotted to determine the shear strength parameters. For test results, including sample density and moisture content, see Drawings Nos. B-3 through B-9, Direct Shear Test Results, and in the following table.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Doug Story, Community Services Director
DATE October 17, 2023
SUBJECT: Discussion and Direction on a Proposed Facility Use Policy
Description Administrative policies and procedures manual for facility use to regulate the use and rental of community facilities and ensure that the process is fair and consistent at all facilities. Strategic Plan Target #5-Quality of Life, Goal #5-Increase Community Events/Arts and Culture – Priority Level #2
Background and Analysis:
On July 18, 2023, staff brought forth a discussion on a draft Facility Use Policy. The Community Services Department oversees facility rentals of the Community Recreation Center (CRC), Civic Center, and park pavilions for private and public events and meetings. Council’s direction was to include distinction between non-profit and private groups to allow for an equitable allocation and fee policy. This rental policy addresses those suggestions as well as provides an opportunity for designated non-profit organizations to receive no cost reservations.
Currently, the City approves facility rentals on a first-come, first-served basis. Due to the growth of the community and limited facilities, the increased demand for the use of City facilities makes it necessary to establish an equitable and fair method for allocating facility use among residents and organizations.
The Facility Use Policy has been created to ensure that the facilities are used for recreational, educational and community service functions that meet the needs of the community, as well as to set clear policies, procedures, regulations, and rental rates for such uses (Attachment A). As part of this process each user is designated into a specific group that allows for distinction in a fair and equitable manner. This allocation process allows for Beaumont-based non-profit organizations and sports leagues to receive no-cost rentals and assign facility usage based on specific criteria to ensure maximum community benefit is achieved.
This Priority Group Classification will be verified by staff during the application process.
Non-Profit Organizations, including sports leagues, would be designated in Group B and receive priority for reservations when availability allows.
To qualify as a Beaumont-based Non-Profit Organization - Group B:
Organization must have a charter.
Organization must have a Board of Directors.
Organization must have a current Determination Letter of Exempt Status, U.S.
Treasury 501c3 or certify affiliation with a national non-profit organization. Organization must have an active Determination Letter of Exempt Status, State Franchise Tax Board.
Organization must have Articles of Incorporation and/or Bylaws; must have an affiliation with a national governing body and the national body must have governance over the association.
Organization must have an operating business address within City limits.
In lieu of fee waivers, the new Policy stipulates Priority Group B users are entitled to the following no cost rentals:
One (1) facility fee waived weekday meeting per week. Two (2) facility fee waived special events at the Albert A. Chatigny Sr.
Community Recreation Center OR Civic Center per year.
Understanding that many non-profit organizations and community groups depend on having no-cost or low-cost options for meetings and events, the City wants to ensure that those organizations who provide a community benefit would have the option of conducting meetings and the occasional special event at no cost. The provision for no- cost rentals to Group B classified groups is subject to special events and meetings only.
These meetings and events must be conducted during regular operating hours; if not the organization will be responsible for staff fees as listed in the fee schedule.
This new policy will eliminate the need for City Council approved fee waivers in certain cases and instead authorizes the City Manager and/or his or her designee to utilize the Facility Use Policy when processing facility use applications.
Fiscal Impact:
The estimated cost to prepare this report is $175.
Recommended Action:
Discuss and provide direction to staff, up to and including approval of the proposed Facility Use Policy.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Sean Thuilliez, Chief of Police
DATE October 17, 2023
SUBJECT: Approve the Purchase of Ten Police Vehicles
Description Request to approve the purchase of a total of ten police vehicles (six from ISF and four from General Fund).
Background and Analysis:
The Fiscal Year 23/24 budget includes replacing six ageing police vehicles and increasing the fleet with six new vehicles. In searching to purchase vehicles, the four largest police vehicle dealerships and local dealers were contacted. All four regional dealerships reported that Ford had canceled all 2024 model year orders, and two dealerships reported that their Ford representative informed them that due to the current labor strikes and being behind on building vehicles for civilian and federal contracts, Ford may not accept orders for new police vehicles until the 2025 model year.
When these dealerships were contacted, Brannen Motors in Georgia had twenty-two 2023 Ford police vehicles available. Two days later, when a quote was requested, they only had sixteen left. Nationwide, these sixteen vehicles are the only police-rated vehicles available (including Ford, Chevy, and Dodge). Beaumont Municipal Code
3.01.100 authorizes the purchase of these vehicles under the “No Competitive Market” exclusion to the formal bid process.
The vehicle purchases will be assigned as follows:
New:
1- Ford Police SUV (to accommodate the two new budgeted Police Officer positions) 1- Ford Police SUV (for the Crime Suppression Unit)
1- Ford Police SUV (for the COPPS Team Supervisor)
1- Ford Police SUV (for third SRO)
Replacements:
1- Ford Police SUV (replacing 2017 Ford - 1FM5K80HGD65307) 1- Ford Police SUV (replacing 2018 Ford - 1FM5K8AT2JGA44108)
1- Ford Police SUV (replacing 2017 Ford - 1FM5K8D82HGD65308) 1- Ford Police SUV (replacing 2005 Ford - 1FMZU73E15ZA76028) 1- Ford Police SUV (replacing 2020 Ford - 1FM5K8AB1LGC51194) 1- Ford Police SUV (replacing 2020 Ford - 1FM5K8AB3LGC51195)
Future Costs for Outfitting
The cost for each Ford police vehicle from Brannen Ford is $48,950, including shipping.
The vehicles will then need to be outfitted with emergency lights, equipment, radios, and decals. The outfitting and estimated tax and licensing for CA is $43,826 per vehicle.
Estimated Cost per Vehicle
Vehicle $48,950
Tax and License: $ 4,500
Emergency Equipment $23,876
Police Decals $ 950
Mobile Computer $ 8,000
Radio $ 6,500
Total $92,776
The police vehicles available are silver in color. Eight of the ten police vehicles will be assigned to patrol operations, which will require them to be painted white. Quotes from local businesses have estimated the cost to paint each vehicle at $8,000.
Vehicle (total cost) $92,776
Paint (8 of 10 vehicles) $ 8,000
Total $100,776
Fiscal Impact:
The FY23/24 budget is estimated to be short for this purchase. A future budget amendment will be needed to cover the unbudgeted difference and is estimated to be $82,216 for the General Fund and $150,764 for the Internal Service Fund.
The cost to prepare this staff report is estimated at $810.
Recommended Action:
Approve the purchase of ten police vehicles from Brennan Motors in the amount of $489,500.

Staff Report

FROM: Christina Taylor, Deputy City Manager
DATE October 17, 2023
SUBJECT: Update on Senate Bill 946 (2017-18) and Senate Bill 972 (2021-22)
Description Update to SB946 relating to sidewalk vendors and SB972 related to retail food vending.
Background and Analysis:
In 2018, the California State Legislature passed Senate Bill 946 which decriminalized sidewalk vending and allowed local jurisdictions to adopt non -criminal regulations related to public health, safety and welfare. This bill did allow cities to continue enforcement of health codes adopted through the California Retail Food Code which was the only remaining criminal enforcement option for local jurisdictions.
SB946 allows local jurisdictions to do the following:
• Limit hours of operation
• Prohibit stationary sidewalk vending in residential areas. • Prohibit sidewalk vending near farmers’ markets, swap meets, and temporary special permit areas.
• Require sanitary conditions
• Require vendors to comply with the Americans with Disability Act (for example, vendors cannot block curb ramps).
• Require a permit or license.
• Request certain information about the business’ operations • A vendor must comply with the laws at the city, county and state level
Under SB946 local jurisdictions cannot:
• Require sidewalk vendors to operate in a specific area, unless the local autho rity is restricting vending to protect the community’s health, safety, or welfare. • Require vendors to ask permission from businesses or anyone besides the government.
• Prohibit sidewalk vendors from operating in public parks, unless the park has a concession agreement, or the park is restricting vending in to protect the community’s health, safety, or welfare.
• Restrict the number of sidewalk vendors, unless the city or county must restrict the number of vendors to protect the community’s health, saf ety, or welfare.
In 2022, SB972 was passed and took effect in January 2023. This bill further decriminalized sidewalk food vending by decriminalizing the California Retail Food Code. This law also created a “compact mobile food operation” category which operates as a person or nonmotorized conveyance with limited food preparation.
Additionally, SB972 affects existing regulations of cottage food operations and micro- enterprise home kitchens (MEHKO’s). Previously, a cottage food operation could sell home-cooked foods directly to the public and an individual running a MEHKO could operate a restaurant in their private residence. Now, under SB972, a cottage food operation or MEHKO can now also be used as a commissary or mobile support unit for up to two compact mobile food operations.
In September 2019, the City adopted Ordinance 1110 enacting Chapter 5.66 Sidewalk Vending. This section of the municipal code was drafted in compliance with SB946. In September 2023, staff from Code Enforcement, Planning and the Police Department attended a virtual seminar sponsored by the California Association of Code Enforcement Officers (CACEO) updating them on SB946 enforcement, SB 972 and other related matters. Staff in each of these departments continue to monitor legislation and seek out best practices for enforcement and ensuring compliance with State law.
Daily activity for Code Enforcement staff includes patrol throughout the City. As part of this activity, Code Enforcement ensures vendors are complying with the City’s ordinance. Code Enforcement and Police Department staff also respond to calls received regarding vendors. In the past twelve months, staff has responded to seventy- three (73) calls for service for sidewalk vending with four (4) citations issued.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost to prepare this staff report is approximately $100.

legislative counsel’s digest
SB 946, Lara. Sidewalk vendors.
Existing law authorizes a local authority, by ordinance or resolution, to adopt requirements for the public safety regulating any type of vending and the time, place, and manner of vending from a vehicle upon a street.
This bill would prohibit a local authority, as defined, from regulating sidewalk vendors, except in accordance with the provisions of the bill. The bill would provide that a local authority is not required to adopt a new program to regulate sidewalk vendors if the local authority has established an existing program that substantially complies with the provisions of the bill. The bill would apply these provisions to a chartered or general law city, county, or city and county.
The bill would require a local authority that elects to adopt a sidewalk vending program to, among other things, not require a sidewalk vendor to operate within specific parts of the public right-of-way, except when that restriction is directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns, and not restrict sidewalk vendors to operate only in a designated neighborhood or area, except as specified. The bill would authorize a local authority to, by ordinance or resolution, adopt additional requirements regulating the time, place, and manner of sidewalk vending, as specified, if the requirements are directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns. The bill would also authorize a local authority to prohibit sidewalk vendors in areas located within the immediate vicinity of a permitted certified farmers’ market and a permitted swap meet, as specified, and to restrict or prohibit sidewalk vendors within the immediate vicinity of an area designated for a temporary special permit issued by the local authority, as specified. A violation would be punishable only by an administrative fine, as specified, pursuant to an ability-to-pay determination, and proceeds would be deposited in the treasury of the local authority.
The bill would require the dismissal of any criminal prosecutions under any local ordinance or resolution regulating or prohibiting sidewalk vendors that have not reached final judgment. The bill would also authorize a person who is currently serving, or who completed, a sentence, or who is subject to a fine, for a conviction of a misdemeanor or infraction for sidewalk

vending, as specified, to petition for dismissal of the sentence, fine, or conviction.
Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. (a) The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(1) Sidewalk vending provides important entrepreneurship and economic development opportunities to low-income and immigrant communities. (2) Sidewalk vending increases access to desired goods, such as culturally significant food and merchandise.
(3) Sidewalk vending contributes to a safe and dynamic public space. (4) The safety and welfare of the general public is promoted by encouraging local authorities to support and properly regulate sidewalk vending.
(5) The safety and welfare of the general public is promoted by prohibiting criminal penalties for violations of sidewalk vending ordinances and regulations.
(6) This act applies to any city, county, or city and county, including a charter city. The criminalization of small business entrepreneurs, and the challenges that those entrepreneurs face as a result of a criminal record, are matters of statewide concern. Further, unnecessary barriers have been erected blocking aspiring entrepreneurs from accessing the formal economy, harming California’s economy in the process, and disrupting the regulation of business, which is a matter of statewide concern. Moreover, California has an interest in the regulation of traffic, a matter of statewide concern, whether in ensuring the appropriate flow of traffic or in ensuring the safety of pedestrians on the road or the sidewalk.
(b) It is the intent of the Legislature to promote entrepreneurship and support immigrant and low-income communities.
SEC. 2. Chapter 6.2 (commencing with Section 51036) is added to Part 1 of Division 1 of Title 5 of the Government Code, to read:

(f) (1) When assessing an administrative fine pursuant to subdivision (a), the adjudicator shall take into consideration the person’s ability to pay the fine. The local authority shall provide the person with notice of his or her right to request an ability-to-pay determination and shall make available instructions or other materials for requesting an ability-to-pay determination.
The person may request an ability-to-pay determination at adjudication or while the judgment remains unpaid, including when a case is delinquent or has been referred to a comprehensive collection program. (2) If the person meets the criteria described in subdivision (a) or (b) of Section 68632, the local authority shall accept, in full satisfaction, 20 percent of the administrative fine imposed pursuant to subdivision (a). (3) The local authority may allow the person to complete community service in lieu of paying the total administrative fine, may waive the administrative fine, or may offer an alternative disposition. (g) (1) A person who is currently serving, or who completed, a sentence, or who is subject to a fine, for a conviction of a misdemeanor or infraction for sidewalk vending, whether by trial or by open or negotiated plea, who would not have been guilty of that offense under the act that added this section had that act been in effect at the time of the offense, may petition for dismissal of the sentence, fine, or conviction before the trial court that entered the judgment of conviction in his or her case.
(2) Upon receiving a petition under paragraph (1), the court shall presume the petitioner satisfies the criteria in paragraph (1) unless the party opposing the petition proves by clear and convincing evidence that the petitioner does not satisfy the criteria. If the petitioner satisfies the criteria in paragraph (1), the court shall grant the petition to dismiss the sentence or fine, if applicable, and dismiss and seal the conviction, because the sentence, fine, and conviction are legally invalid.
93 — 6 —Ch. 459
(3) Unless requested by the petitioner, no hearing is necessary to grant or deny a petition filed under paragraph (1).
(4) If the court that originally sentenced or imposed a fine on the petitioner is not available, the presiding judge shall designate another judge to rule on the petition.
(5) Nothing in this subdivision is intended to diminish or abrogate any rights or remedies otherwise available to the petitioner. (6) Nothing in this subdivision or related provisions is intended to diminish or abrogate the finality of judgments in any case not falling within the purview of this chapter.
SEC. 3. The Legislature finds and declares that Section 2 of this act, which adds Section 51038 to the Government Code, imposes a limitation on the public’s right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies within the meaning of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution. Pursuant to that constitutional provision, the Legislature makes the following findings to demonstrate the interest protected by this limitation and the need for protecting that interest:
The Legislature finds and declares that in order to protect the privacy of a sidewalk vendor with regard to his or her California driver’s license or identification number, individual taxpayer identification number, or municipal identification number, when that number is collected in lieu of a social security number for purposes of the issuance of a permit or business license, it is necessary that the sidewalk vendor’s number be confidential, except as provided in this act.

Senate Bill No. 972
CHAPTER 489
An act to amend Sections 113818, 113831, and 113868 of, and to add Chapter 11.7 (commencing with Section 114368) to Part 7 of Division 104 of, the Health and Safety Code, relating to retail food. [Approved by Governor September 23, 2022. Filed with
Secretary of State September 23, 2022.]
legislative counsel’s digest
SB 972, Gonzalez. California Retail Food Code.
(1) Existing law, the California Retail Food Code (the code), establishes uniform health and sanitation standards for, and provides for regulation by the State Department of Public Health of, retail food facilities and requires local health agencies to enforce these provisions. Existing law, for purposes of the code, defines a “cottage food operation” as an enterprise that has no more than a specified amount in gross annual sales, is operated by a cottage food operator, and has no more than 1 full-time employee within the registered or permitted area of a private home where the food products are prepared and packaged. Existing law provides for the regulation of microenterprise home kitchen operations and limits those operations to not serving more than 30 individual meals per day and not more than 60 individual meals per week and to no more than $50,000 in verifiable gross annual sales, as adjusted for inflation. Existing law authorizes the local enforcement agency to decrease the limit on the number of individual meals prepared based on the food preparation capacity of the operation.
This bill would authorize a cottage food operation or microenterprise home kitchen operation to serve as a commissary or mobile support unit for up to 2 compact mobile food operations if the cottage food operation or microenterprise home kitchen operation permit includes an endorsement from the local enforcement agency that the cottage food operation or microenterprise home kitchen operation is capable of supporting the preparation and storage of the food being sold from the compact mobile food operation and the storage and cleaning of the compact mobile food operation. The bill would authorize nonpotentially hazardous foods prepared in a cottage food operation to be served from a compact mobile food operation. The bill would define “compact mobile food operation” as a mobile food facility that operates from an individual or from a pushcart, stand, display, pedal-driven cart, wagon, showcase, rack, or other nonmotorized conveyance. The bill would require compact food operations to conduct only limited food preparation.
(2) The code defines “limited food preparation” as food preparation that is restricted to specified activities, including dispensing or portioning of
92 STATE OF CALIFORNIA
AUTHENTICATED
ELECTRONIC LEGAL MATERIAL
nonpotentially hazardous food, slicing and chopping of food on a heated cooking surface during the cooking process, and holding, portioning, and dispensing foods that are prepared at a satellite food service or catering operation.
This bill would include in the definition of “limited food preparation” dispensing and portioning for immediate service to a customer of food that has been temperature controlled until immediately prior to portioning or dispensing, slicing and chopping of nonpotentially hazardous food or produce that has been washed at an approved facility, hot and cold holding of food previously prepared at an approved permanent food facility, and reheating of food that has been previously prepared at an approved permanent food facility and held at the approved temperatures.
(3) The code defines “mobile food facility” and regulates what types of food may be provided at a mobile food facility. The code requires mobile food facilities to meet specified health and safety standards, including access to warewashing sinks, restrooms, and handwashing facilities and required quantities of potable water.
This bill would require a compact mobile food operation to meet the applicable requirements of mobile food facilities, except as specified. The bill would exempt a compact mobile food operation that has 25 square feet or less of display area and sells only prepackaged, nonpotentially hazardous foods or whole uncooked produce from the code, except as specified. The bill would authorize a compact mobile food operation to display or sell food outdoors, if certain conditions are met, including, among other things, overhead protection provided above all food display areas. The bill would require a compact mobile food operation that engages in the preparation of raw meat, raw poultry, or raw fish to meet additional specified requirements.
The bill would authorize the enforcement agency to preapprove a standard plan for a standardized or mass-produced facility intended to serve as a compact mobile food operation and would authorize a compact mobile food operation to use that standardized or mass-produced facility after a final inspection, but without submitting plans for the individual unit. The bill would authorize the enforcement agency to collect a fee for the final inspection.
(4) Existing law requires commissaries and other approved facilities servicing mobile support units, mobile food facilities, and vending machines to meet specified standards.
This bill would authorize an enforcement agency to approve a facility with nonconforming structural conditions if those conditions do not pose a public health hazard. The bill would also require an enforcement agency to approve the storage of a compact mobile food facility in a permitted permanent food facility if, after initial inspection, the agency determines that the compact mobile food facility is protected from contamination. The bill would authorize the enforcement agency to charge a fee to administer these provisions.

(5) The code requires a food facility to have a valid permit to be open for business and authorizes the local enforcement agency to charge a fee for the permit or registration or related services.
This bill would authorize the local enforcement agency to reduce the fee for the permit, registration, or related service for an applicant seeking approval of a compact mobile food operation or related operations. (6) Under existing law, violation of the code is a misdemeanor, unless otherwise specified.
This bill would make violations of the code by an operator or employee of a compact mobile food facility or a sidewalk vendor punishable only by an administrative fine. Additionally, by making changes to the definition of various crimes and by adding new crimes under the code, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 113818 of the Health and Safety Code is amended to read:
113818. (a) “Limited food preparation” means food preparation that is restricted to one or more of the following:

California Retail Food Code Effective January 1, 2019
CHAPTER 1. General Provisions
113700. These provisions shall be known, and may be cited, as the California Retail Food Code, hereafter referred to as “this part.”
113703. The purpose of this part is to safeguard public health and provide to consumers food that is safe, unadulterated, and honestly presented through adoption of science-based standards.
113705. The Legislature finds and declares that the public health interest requires that there be uniform statewide health and sanitation standards for retail food facilities to assure the people of this state that the food will be pure, safe, and unadulterated. Except as provided in Section 113709, it is the intent of the Legislature to occupy the whole field of health and sanitation standards for retail food facilities, and the standards set forth in this part and regulations adopted pursuant to this part shall be exclusive of all local health and sanitation standards relating to retail food facilities.
113707. The department shall adopt regulations to implement and administer this part. 113709. This part does not prohibit a local governing body from adopting an evaluation or grading system for food facilities, from prohibiting any type of food facility, from adopting an employee health certification program, from regulating the provision of consumer toilet and handwashing facilities, from adopting requirements for the public safety regulating the type of vending and the time, place, and manner of vending from vehicles upon a street pursuant to its authority under subdivision (b) of Section 22455 of the Vehicle Code, or from prohibiting the presence of pet dogs in outdoor dining areas of food facilities. 113711. In all laws and regulations, references to Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 113700) or the California Uniform Retail Food Facilities Law, shall mean this part or the California Retail Food Code.
113713.
(a) Primary responsibility for enforcement of this part shall be with the local enforcement agency. Nothing in this part shall prevent the department from taking any necessary program or enforcement actions for the protection of the public health and safety. (b) The department shall provide technical assistance, training, standardization, program evaluation, and other services to local health agencies as necessary to ensure the uniform interpretation and application of this part, when an appropriation is made to the department for this purpose.
(c) Whenever the enforcement of the requirements of this part by any local enforcement agency is satisfactory to the department, the enforcement of this part shall not be duplicated by the department. The department shall investigate to determine satisfactory enforcement of this part by evaluating the program of each local enforcement agency at least once every three years and shall prepare a report of the evaluation and list any program improvements needed only when an appropriation is made to the department for these purposes. 113715. Any construction, alteration, remodeling, or operation of a food facility shall be approved by the enforcement agency and shall be in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal statutes, regulations, and ordinances, including but not limited to, fire, building, and zoning codes.

Notwithstanding Section 16350 of the Government Code, all moneys deposited in the Retail Food Safety and Defense Fund shall be transferred to the Food Safety Fund for appropriation and expenditure as specified by Section 110050. 113719. Structural and sanitation requirements shall be based on the food service activity to be conducted, the type of food that is to be prepared or served, and the extent of food preparation that is to be conducted at the food facility.
113725.
(a) The enforcement agency shall utilize a standardized food facility inspection format for food facility inspections that includes all of the following:
(1) The name and address of the food facility.
(2) Identification of the following inspection criteria, which shall be the basis of the inspection report:
(A) Improper holding temperatures of potentially hazardous foods. (B) Improper cooling of potentially hazardous foods.
(C) Inadequate cooking of potentially hazardous foods.
(D) Poor personal hygiene of food employees.
(E) Contaminated equipment.
(F) Food from unapproved sources.
(3) For each violation identified pursuant to paragraph (2), classification of the violation as a minor violation or major violation.
(b) An enforcement agency may modify the format to add criteria to those specified pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (a), if both of the following conditions are met:
(1) The additional criteria are based on other provisions of this part. (2) A violation is identified by reference to items and sections of this part, or the regulations adopted pursuant to this part relating to those items, if a food facility is cited for a violation of the additional criteria.
(c) This section shall not restrict the ability of the enforcement agency to inspect and report on criteria other than those subject to regulation under this part. 5
