PLAIN-ENGLISH GUIDE

Building upkeep issues

Understand the finding without losing the official context.

Usually less urgent

What it means

Floors, walls, ceilings, lighting, ventilation, or garbage areas needed repair or cleaning. These are usually less urgent than food-handling problems but still need to be fixed.

How serious is it?

Each department labels its own findings. The severity shown on a restaurant’s record comes from the official inspection, and a past finding may have been corrected. Look for follow-up inspections.
