Agenda Item
R5 Discussion and Possible Action Including Approval to Opt-In to the California Department of Public Health Microenterprise Home Kitchen Operations (MEHKO) Program in Mendocino County; Authorize the Department to Develop an Ordinance, Permitting Process, Application Materials, and Operational Procedures
(Sponsor: Health Services)
Vote Requirement: Majority
I support R5. A home-kitchen permit program would give local cooks a way to start small food businesses and give residents more meal options. Please keep permit fees affordable, make the application straightforward, and give customers an easy way to verify that a kitchen is permitted.
