Section XXIII-4715 - Food Stand/Booth Construction [formerly paragraph 23A:008]

A. [Formerly paragraph 23A:008-1] Indoor booths must be constructed with tables, counters, and/or walls on all sides to control patron access. Food service must be from the rear area of the booth or otherwise dispensed to prevent contamination by customers.

B. [Formerly paragraph 23A:008-2] Outdoor booths must be constructed to include a roof made of wood, canvas, or other material that protects the interior of the booth from the weather and be enclosed by counters/walls to control patron access.

1. It is recommended that the booth be enclosed on three sides with the fourth, front side encompassing the service area, so constructed as to minimize the entrance of dust, flies and vermin. The use of screen, mosquito netting, or polyurethane for this purpose is acceptable; counter-service openings shall be minimal.

2. Additional protective covering must be provided to completely enclose outer openings in the event of rain, dust storms or other inclement weather.
