A Midland wing spot, a Barrie condominium and a Muskoka takeout location have all been cited for violations following recent inspections by Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit officials.

Earlier this month, Wild Wing on King Street was cited for five different infractions, according to the health unit's enforcement page.

The infractions ranged from failing to sanitize utensils using an agent not in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions; the use of multi-service articles not of readily cleanable material; and failure to provide equipment for cleaning and sanitizing utensils as required.

Nautica Condominium, located on Ellen Street near Barrie’s waterfront, was ordered to close its whirlpool/spa after a routine inspection last month uncovered several infractions. 

According to the online report, the facility failed to ensure the premises was operated “free from conditions that may be an immediate health hazard.”

The order was rescinded after a follow-up inspection this month determined all infractions had been corrected.

Baysville Bites, located on Muskoka Road 117, was ordered to close after an inspector found several infractions, including failure to maintain the premise free from conditions that may be a health hazard, adversely affect the sanitary operation of the premise, or adversely affect the wholesomeness of the food; failure to maintain the food premises with clean floors and/or in good repair; failure to maintain single service containers and articles free from contamination; the washing station being used other than for handwashing of employees; failing to maintain the premises in a clean and sanitary manner; failing to maintain records of pest control measures taken; failing to protect against entry, harbouring and breeding of pests; and failing to ensure presence of food handler or supervisor during all hours of operation.

A health hazard order was served, education was provided and training was recommended by the inspector at the time of the visit.

A follow-up inspection on Oct. 3 determined acceptable, temporary measures had been put in place, and training was also recommended. The health hazard order was rescinded and the premises was allowed to reopen.
