Methodology
Siskiyou County (California) enforces the California Retail Food Code (CalCode, Health & Safety Code Division 104, Part 7, Chapter 1 et seq.). The Siskiyou County Environmental Health Division (within Siskiyou County Public Health) does not operate a placard, letter-grade, or numeric-scoring overlay. Siskiyou publishes inspection reports through a public searchable web portal with town filter (URL parameter field_town_value) and keyword search (keys parameter), paginated across approximately 12+ pages. Public posting is conducted per California Health and Safety Code §113947 (which requires facility name and address, identification of major violations, and date of inspection); Siskiyou additionally documents minor violations. The two most recent routine inspections plus any subsequent reinspections are posted per facility. Approximately 375 retail food facilities are permitted countywide. Note: Siskiyou's Food page text references "California Uniform Retail Food Facilities Law (CURFFL)" — the pre-2007 name for CalCode (California Uniform Retail Food Facilities Law was superseded by the California Retail Food Code in 2007). The operative statutory authority is CalCode; the page phrasing is stale.
