1. Can I just take a refresher course or do I have to take the whole food class all over again?

The State of Illinois no longer issues the Food Service Manager Certification.   Each food establishment shall be under the supervision of a Certified Food Protection Manager who has attended an approved Conference of Food Protection 8 hours class and passed an exam every 5 years.  There are no longer any refresher courses.  Here is a list of Tazewell County food protection classes.  

2. How soon do I have to have a temporary application in before I'm charged a late fee?

To allow adequate time for staff to schedule inspections, a minimum of 5 working days is required before a late fee is charged. 

Temporary Permit Application Fee Schedule:

$20.00 if paid for 5 or more working days prior to the inspection.

$30.00 if NOT paid 5 working days prior to the event. Repeated failure to not pay prior to event, applications will be charged $75.00

$40.00 if paid for at the time of inspection (event).  Repeated failure to pay at event, applications will be charged $100.00
