In an effort to push last minute fee increases on restaurants, HB 274 seeks to double health inspection fees for restaurants as well as charge a rate of $100 per hour for inspections generated by a complaint. For each subsequent visit, restaurateurs would be charged $100 per hour until complaint is satisfied. These fee increases are conveniently hidden between legislation affecting tatoo parlors, body piercing studios and renal end facilities.
Attached is the proposed legislation. http://legis.delaware.gov/LIS/LIS145.nsf/vwLegislation/HB+274?Opendocument
Please call your representive today. This has been a very active session but your representative NEEDS to hear from us today. This bill will move quickly with rules suspended. There will be no hearing.
