Methodology

Glenn County operates a CalCode-only retail food safety program through the Environmental Health Department, which sits within the Planning and Community Development Services Agency (PCDSA) -- a consolidated agency that also includes Building Inspection, Code Enforcement, Geographic Information Systems, Planning, Public Transit and Transportation, and Water Resources. No local placard ordinance, no letter grade system, no numeric scoring overlay, no rating tier. Authority verified via direct canonical site language: "California Retail Food Code (CalCode) is part of the California Health and Safety Code dealing with retail food facilities. This code sets the operating requirements for food facilities. CalCode went into effect on July 1, 2007." Notable infrastructure: Glenn publishes individual facility inspection reports as PDFs through a structured CMS resource listing (approximately 238 reports visible) -- above-floor transparency for a small county in the violations-list-only classification family. Not a queryable inspection database (no search by facility name/zip), but more accessible than typical peers (Berkeley, Del Norte, Mendocino, Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, Colusa). Reports browsable alphabetically by facility name. Foodborne illness reporting direct line: (530) 934-6102 during business hours 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Monday–Friday.
