Opening a New Restaurant - City of Houston
If you are considering opening a food establishment, the Houston Health and Human Services Department’s (HDHHS) Consumer Health Services Bureau can help you in making your business venture a successful one. The following procedures can save you time and perhaps money.
Plans must be drawn to scale and include:
* Floor plan including the proposed layout of all equipment.
* Elevations of all food service equipment.
* Room-finish schedule including material type and finish color.
* Plans for remodeling should include existing, demolition and proposed floor plan and equipment layout.
* After the plan checking office reviews the plans, the person who submitted the plans will be notified. The plans are either approved or rejected by the reviewer. Rejected plans are returned with lists of specific corrections, changes or alterations that must be made in order to obtain approval. Approved plans are stamped and dated. Once approved, a building permit, if needed is issued. No construction should take place until the plans are approved and the building permit is issued by the Planning and Development Department.
