The City Councilmember asked for the Area Supervisor's boss' name, she provided it then informed him that he has already been contacted. She further informed him that the Program Manager was on the way to the establishment.
The Program Manager arrived within thirteen (13) minutes and discussed the situation with the City Councilmember who then asked for the Program Manager's boss' name.

We returned to the establishment, provided a copy of the inspection report which was signed by the person in charge, placed a ''FOOD ESTABLISHMENT CLOSURE NOTICE'' outside the establishment, and informed them that they must close immediately. They were further informed that prior to reinstatement of the license. the establishment must pay a re-inspection fee, correct all outstanding violations, and provide a corrective plan of action for rodent abatement
