Mr. Bohner also informed the Council and Board that he has updated the City of Elgin website and knowledge based articles to include information on the Zika virus. REVIEW OF 2015 YEAR END REPORT Mr. Bohner noted that 22 food handling establishments opened or obtained occupancy in the past year. Five food handling licenses were revoked or suspended, food was discarded during fifteen different inspections, and seven different establishment owners were fined in adjudication hearings in 2015. In addition, swimming facilities were closed in 5 occasions due to various critical violations of the Swimming Facility Code. MISCELLANEOUS Dr.Poulos asked if sanitary inspections conducted by the Health Department were typically code enforcement or educational inspections. Mr. Bohner stated that although violations of the Illinois Department of Public Health Food Service Sanitation Code are noted during nearly all health inspections, the majority of every each inspection is dedicated to food safety education with the owner or manager. Mr. Bohner recently included a line on each inspection report to document the type of critical analysis education that the inspector and operator discuss during their inspection. In addition, since 2015 IDPH requires that every food worker in a food handling establishment is either certified in food service sanitation or receive basic food worker training.
