PRIORITY VIOLATION-7-201.11 - Priority: Separation-Storage
This address holds 2 food permits
Maricopa County issues a separate permit for each kitchen rather than for each restaurant name, so large properties hold several. Each is inspected and scored on its own. The county does not publish which kitchen serves which venue.
