Summary

The California Retail Food Code provides for the regulation of health and sanitation standards for retail food facilities, as defined, by the State Department of Public Health. Under existing law, local health agencies are primarily responsible for enforcing this code. Violation of these provisions is punishable as a misdemeanor. The code requires a permanent food facility, as defined, to provide clean toilet facilities in good repair for consumers, guests, or invitees if there is onsite consumption of food or if the food facility was constructed after July 1, 1984, and has more than 20,000 square feet of floor space. Existing law requires handwashing facilities to be provided within or adjacent to toilet rooms. This bill would require those food facilities to provide a baby changing table within or adjacent to those toilet rooms, unless doing so would result in noncompliance with a law ensuring access for persons with disabilities, as determined by the local health inspector. By expanding a crime and increasing the duties of local enforcement officials, this bill would create state-mandated local programs. 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 with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason. With regard to any other mandates, this bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
