The Allentown Health Bureau and Allentown Fire Department are extending the license and permit periods of food and childcare establishments with licenses or permits due to expire this month.
Food establishments with licenses expiring in March, April and May have been extended to June 30. These businesses should continue to adhere to the food code, practice social distancing and follow Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf’s directive restricting food sales to take-out and delivery only.
City childcare establishments with a health license and fire permit expiring in March, April or May are also being extended to June 30.
Fire department inspections include checks of exit signage, smoke detectors and fire extinguisher installation and testing. Facilities are also required to have an approved fire safety plan.
