Plan Review
 

Plan Review

In accordance with ATCP 75.075, "An applicant or license owner of a new or extensively remodeled
retail food establishment shall submit a retail food establishment plan to the department or its agent.
The department or its agent may require an applicant or license holder to submit this document when
a change of ownership has occurred. An applicant or license holder shall obtain plan approval from
the department or its agent before any of the following occurs:
  • The applicant or license holder begins construction of a retail food establishment.
  • The license holder modifies or extensively remodels a retail food establishment."
When planning on opening a food establishment, you must submit a Plan Review Application and an
Operational Plan. These two documents must then be emailed to bc_health@browncountywi.gov for
a sanitarian to review. If accepted, you will be sent a License Application. If denied, the sanitarian will
suggest changes and/or suggestions in order to improve your Plan Review Application and Operational
Plan. 

Incomplete forms will NOT be reviewed.
