Disclaimer: The Environmental Health Consumer Protection Program permits and inspects food facilities for food safety. We work collaboratively with code enforcement agencies in the cities of Watsonville, Capitola, Santa Cruz, and Scotts Valley to respond to unpermitted vendors.
Our response is focused on working with local retail food operators with the intent of correcting food safety violations and/or getting unsafe food operations under permit wherever possible. We are unable to recover personal damage lost because of your experience within a permitted food facility or from an unpermitted food vendor. Please seek legal assistance in the event you experience a loss.
