Staff was helpful. I went in to the office couple weeks ago regarding person in charge certification and food handler's permit for 5-year questions. Debbie was very helpful and informative with question and clarification of the matter. The have lots of pamphlets newsletters and a bulletin board with lots if information for the public. And of course if you have any questions feel free to walk in and ask.
