A la carte

Most of the violations are handled on the spot — usually by moving or discarding any food in question and cleaning what was found to be dirty — and a few require follow-up visits.

Delaware County presents the inspections with no further comment than above.

The inspections are listed in reverse chronological order, with the early week Madison Grille inspection at the bottom and latter one at the top. The first one was routine and the latter was the follow-up.

Clean bill of health this week:

• Parkview Pizza Fried Chicken and Cold Beer, 603 Cedar Ave., Parkview Court Shopping Center, Yeadon

There was one follow-up after three routine inspections.

The Daily Times corrects only grossly improper spelling, capitalization, abbreviation and punctuation from the reports.

There are many more inspections performed by the county than those listed above. Those inspections are in food-serving locations that do not have liquor licenses.

Tinicum Township reports through the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture website. No inspections were listed for Tinicum.

Tinicum is the only one of the seven Delaware County townships that doesn’t rely on the county health department for inspections that reports through the state.

Governmental entities are not obligated to report the results of food-safety inspections to the public.

Here are the previous inspections in Delaware County.

CANISTEO (WBNG) — On Aug. 11, Governor Kathy Hochul announced emergency assistance to support homeowners hit by the remains of Hurricane Debby.

Delaware County is one of the five counties across the state that will be eligible for grants of up to $50,000 to help pay for expenses that are not covered by homeowner’s insurance.

During her news conference in Canisteo today, the governor made it a point that her teams will be visiting damaged areas to make sure people can get insurance and the financial support they need.

”This is something where my teams will be on the ground to help people file for insurance,” Governor Kathy Hochul said. “If they are denied, I want complaints filed with the Department of Financial Services, to find out why they are denying them. But the question of getting insurance, overall, is an important one, and I know it’s more difficult in flood areas.”

As of this evening, 490 residents in Delaware County are still without power after damaging storms caused outages across the county Friday.
